Chapter 51
Freya hadn’t eaten dinner and was craving something warm to fill her stomach, so she agreed.
As soon as she sat down, her stomach growled.
York was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, “Sister–in–law, you… didn’t have dinner?”
“Mm.”
York immediately felt embarrassed. “Sorry, sister–in–law, it’s all my fault…”
“It’s fine. I wasn’t hungry before.”
York looked at her gentle smile, and he felt a bit uncomfortable inside.
He really thought Freya was a wonderful person.
But it was a shame that his brother just didn’t like her…
When Matteo and the others returned home after celebrating with Raven, it was already nearly 1
- AM.
The butler, seeing that Matteo had returned so late with Isabella, asked with concern, “Why so late?”
Matteo replied with a brief “Mm” and didn’t elaborate.
He sent Isabella back to her room, and then, upon returning to his room and turning on the light, didn’t see Freya. He asked the butler, “She didn’t come back tonight?”
“Madam? No, she hasn’t returned.”
Matteo was somewhat surprised.
It seemed like Freya hadn’t been home much lately.
Such frequent absences were rare.
Could something serious have happened at her family?

Chapter 51
Isabella had been spending a lot of time with Raven recently and was having a great time.
When she woke up in the morning, she had a big smile on her face, feeling very content and in a
good mood. She suddenly thought of Freya and happily hugged her stuffed animal, rushing to the
master bedroom. “Mom! Mom!”
The bedroom door was open, but no one was inside.
Isabella’s face fell, and just then, Matteo came out of the walk–in closet.
She hurriedly asked, “Dad, where’s Mom?”
Matteo was slowly tying his tie and replied indifferently, “She’s not at home.”
“Not at home? Why?”
“If you want to know, ask her.”
“Okay.”
“Oh… Okay.” Isabella sounded a little disappointed but then immediately requested, “Mom, you must take me to school tomorrow morning, okay?”
