No More Layovers for a Love That Won't Land novel Chapter 112

Chapter 112

Hearing his footsteps, Freya turned to face him and said seriously, “I’ve seen the property deed. Thank you.”

Before he could respond, she added, “I don’t have enough money at the moment, but I’ll pay for it in the future.”

Though the villa was old, the location was good, and the property market in the capital was one of the highest in the country. That villa was worth at least two or three hundred million yuan, money she couldn’t afford right now.

Matteo paused for a moment, loosening his necktie. Upon hearing her words, he raised an eyebrow slightly, seeming intrigued. He said coolly, “You want to give me money?”

“Yes, I-”

“No need,” he interrupted, placing his loosened tie aside. “I can afford this myself.”

With that, he also placed his watch down and went into the bathroom.

Freya watched his retreating figure, stunned for a moment, but didn’t press the matter further.

Since their marriage, she had never really asked him for anything, wanting to avoid burdening him. In a way, this house was the first thing he had given her on his own initiative.

She thought to herself that perhaps it could be a keepsake for their soon–to–end marriage.

With that thought, she placed the property deed in the drawer.

After a few busy days, by the fourth day, things had finally quieted down for Freya.

She and Matteo had both been occupied, and she hadn’t had much time to spend with Isabella. During lunch, Isabella called to ask if she had time, saying it had been a while since Freya had picked her up from school.

Freya realized her schedule had cleared up a bit, so she decided to leave work early and pick up Isabella from school.

When she got home, Isabella mentioned that she was craving the dishes Freya used to cook. So, after changing clothes, Freya headed to the kitchen.

Since Freya got off early, Grandma was also pleased. Seeing that Freya was cooking, she called Matteo to ask him to come home for dinner.

Matteo declined, saying, “Grandma, I have something at the company.”

Grandma wasn’t pleased, but she quickly brightened up and, after hanging up, told Freya, “Mag, take the food to Matteo later!”

Freya froze and declined, “Grandma, since he has something to do, we shouldn’t disturb him-”

“He still needs to eat, right?”

“Grandma-

Before Freya could finish, Grandma decisively ordered, “It’s settled then.”

Grandma directed Aunt Sara and the others to make a couple of extra dishes.

Freya didn’t argue further. But she realized, if she was going to take the food to Matteo, she had no idea where he was working, and he probably wouldn’t be at the office.

Plus, he most likely had other arrangements, so even if she brought him food, it would probably be a wasted effort.

After thinking this through, she found a chance to go upstairs and call Matteo.

After a while, he picked up.

“What’s the matter?”

“Grandma wants me to bring you dinner,” Freya said, not waiting for him to respond. “Do you have other plans? If you do, I’ll tell Grandma.”

She was pretty sure Matteo wouldn’t want her to deliver food to him. She was hoping he’d cooperate and make it easier for her to explain to Grandma.

“Mm, you can tell Grandma-”

Before Matteo could finish his sentence, Freya suddenly heard Raven’s voice in the background.

“Frank, the food’s here.”

Freya paused.

Matteo responded to Raven, “Alright.”

Then, he turned to speak to Freya, “I’ve got dinner covered here. You can just let Grandma know.”

That Frank! Even if work is busy, can’t he find time to come home?”

Even if Matteo was busy, surely he would come home eventually. After all, he needed rest too.

This was clearly directed at Freya.

Her nose tingled, and before she could speak, Nolan coldly added, “But you’ve still been too lazy. In the pursuit of learning, if you don’t progress, you fall behind. Actually, you’re regressing.”

Freya quickly responded, “I know, teacher. I will do my best to make up for the time I’ve lost these past few years.”

“Mm.”

Nolan’s teaching style was always brief and to the point. Once he said his piece, he would stop.

Seeing that Nolan seemed to have some free time, Freya couldn’t help but ask, “Teacher, do you have time tonight?

I’d like to have dinner with you.”

It wasn’t just freya–Johnny hadn’t had a meal with Nolan in a long time either.

Hearing Freya’s invitation, Johnny quickly nodded. “Yes, teacher, do you have time?

Nolan answered indifferently, “I already have an appointment. No time.”

“Ah?” Johnny was clearly disappointed.

Freya felt the same.

She was about to ask Nolan when he would be free next, so she could arrange another time to meet, but before the could say anything, Nolan added, “The person I’m meeting is Matteo Wilson.”
