No More Layovers for a Love That Won't Land novel Chapter 107

“Mm.”

Freya entered the room first, and when Matteo followed, she said, “Close the door.”

She didn’t want their argument, if it came to that, to disturb Isabella.

Come to think of it, though they had been married for many years, their relationship was far from good, yet they had never had a loud argument.

Matteo had always been too indifferent to engage in such a thing, let alone argue with her.

As for her, she treasured every moment with him, and she couldn’t bear the thought of fighting with him.

Matteo casually closed the door, then looked at her and asked, “What are we talking about?”

Freya got straight to the point: “Raven’s uncle bought the villa across from my uncle’s house. They’ve been renovating it for some time now, and it’s likely they’ll move in soon.”

Raven’s mother was surnamed Green, named Janice Green.

But the complicated history between the Miller family and the Green family didn’t start with Janice and her mother, Sally Miller.

It started long ago, between their grandmothers, when they were young.

They had once been close friends.

However, Raven’s grandmother had a difficult marriage and a hard life. Freya’s grandmother often helped her, and later their granddaughters–Sally and Janice–also became good friends.

The Miller and Green families were well–matched, and Logan and Sally had a love marriage. They had a good relationship at first, but things began to change after Sally returned from university.

In order to help Sally rise in status, Raven’s grandmother’s family had already torn their ties with Freya’s family.

Over the years, whenever they ran into each other outside, the Green family had adopted a condescending attitude. towards her uncle and grandmother, with no trace of the humility and sincerity they had once shown when seeking refuge with her grandmother.

The complicated relationships between the Miller, Brown, and Green families had been ongoing for years. Even though she hadn’t gone into detail, Freya believed Matteo would know all about it.

And she believed that by now, he understood what she meant.

Matteo did understand.

He pulled out a cigarette, paused as if thinking, and then asked her, “Do you want me to make them move out?”

“Yes.”

Matteo took a drag from his cigarette but didn’t speak right away.

This matter was especially important to Freya. There were other things she could ignore, but not this one.

Her hands clenched into fists, her eyes reddened as she looked at him, her voice trembling as she said, “Please, just agree. Whatever condition it is, I will-”

Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly heard him say, “Okay.”

She froze for a moment.

She hadn’t expected him to agree so decisively.

Her tears welled up in her eyes as her mind momentarily blanked out.

By the time she snapped out of it, she found herself unsure of what to do next.

Isabella greeted him cheerfully, “Good morning, Dad!”

“Good morning.” Matteo replied, glancing at Freya without speaking, before sitting down and quietly starting his

breakfast.

Freya didn’t say anything either.

Even though Matteo had agreed to help her with the matter, that didn’t mean things between them would change. Their relationship remained as it always had been–distant and detached,

After breakfast, Freya took Isabella to school before heading to the office.

Since attending the tech exhibition, both she and Johnny had come up with many new ideas. However, due to their busy schedule with the Wilson Tech collaboration, they hadn’t had the time to dive deeply into their thoughts.

Now that they had some time, they were focusing on finalizing their plans and figuring out how to push forward with them.

Therefore, they had a lot to do today.

Freya had planned to order takeout for dinner and stay late at the office to work, but around 6 p.m., when she was still busy and hadn’t even had time to order, her phone rang.

It was a call from Matteo.

Freya glanced at the screen, excused herself from the meeting, and stepped outside to answer the phone, “Hello?”

“Grandma’s here,” Matteo said. “Come home early.”
