Chapter 251
Chapter 251
In the following days, Freya once again took time out of her schedule to attend two or three
more events.
She had bumped into Raven twice during these events. However, on both occasions, Matteo hadn’t accompanied her.
By March, the rain had started to become more frequent.
After finishing a discussion session, Freya noticed that it had begun raining outside. She
had brought an umbrella with her, but she had left it in the car.
She started walking toward the entrance, planning to wait for the rain to lessen before
leaving.
Before she could even reach the door, she spotted Raven, who was talking to someone.
When she saw Freya, her smile faded slightly.
At that moment, Matteo appeared with an umbrella in hand. It was clear he had come specifically to pick up Raven.
He took off his coat and draped it over Raven’s shoulders.
Onlookers who were waiting for the rain to ease couldn’t help but gaze at them with
admiration, some even gasping in surprise.
Matteo, noticing Freya, paused for a moment.
Freya remained expressionless.
He quickly withdrew his gaze, reopened his umbrella, and walked off with Raven.
The wind was picking up that day, and with the coat on Raven’s shoulders, even if some rain got past the umbrella, the coat would shield her from getting wet.

It was a thoughtful gesture, one that spoke of Matteo’s care and attention.
Soon, their figures disappeared through the entrance.
A while later, Matteo’s driver appeared from the parking lot, holding an umbrella in his hand. He approached Freya and handed it to her.
“Madam, Mr. Wilson asked me to bring you this umbrella.”
Freya didn’t take it, instead replying, “No need. You can take it back.”
Earlier, when Old Madam Wilson had mentioned that Matteo would try to get along with her for the sake of Isabella, he had shown concern for her at the last seminar.
Now, he was once again sending her an umbrella in front of Raven…
If Raven was okay with Matteo sending her an umbrella, it meant she was confident enough in their relationship to understand that Matteo wasn’t doing it out of affection.
It was simply because of Isabella’s request to show her a bit of kindness when needed.
The driver hesitated. “But-”
Freya cut him off. “He won’t mind. Please go back.”
Seeing that she was resolute, the driver reluctantly took the umbrella and left.
After that, the driver didn’t show up again.
However, the rain continued without any sign of stopping.
Freya glanced at the time, contemplating whether to wait longer or brave the rain and leave.
At that moment, a familiar voice rang out before her.
“Let me walk you out. I’ll give you a ride.”
It was Harry
No Flore
Chapter 251
It was already getting dark, and with the rain showing no signs of letting up, she wasn’t sure how much longer she’d have to wait.
Freya didn’t refuse. “Thank you.”
Harry immediately removed his coat, seemingly about to offer it to her. But Freya quickly
stopped him, saying,
“No need. I have a spare set of clothes in my car. If my clothes get wet, I’ll change into those.”
Harry paused, not insisting any further. However, as they walked together, he positioned himself slightly to block the wind for her.
As they descended the stairs, Freya asked, “Mr. Becker, you’re here for the event too?”
s head. “Not exactly. Levi mentioned that you were here for the event a
ago.
tly, we didn’t have any pressing work matters to discuss, so I haven’t seen you in a while. I thought I’d stop by to see you.”
Freya smiled and nodded.
But then, noticing her slightly flushed ears from the cold, Harry gave a soft “hm” and asked, “Do you have time later? How about dinner?”
Since he had helped her before, and they still had business interactions, having a meal together didn’t feel out of place.
Freya considered it for a moment before answering, “Sure.”
After arriving at the restaurant, they entered a private room, and once seated, Harry poured a glass of water for Freya and asked, “Did you gain anything from the recent discussion sessions?”
“Sort of,” Freya replied
