Chapter 319 She Hates Freya


    Edward was beginning to despise Riley since he knew Freya better than anyone else and understood


    how kind she was.


    Freya, don’t be angry. Edward didn’t know how tofort Freya, so he could only send a brief


    message to her.


    She chuckled and replied, ‘Did you see the trending topic?


    Yeah, my brother saw it too. He said Riley is both malicious and foolish.”


    That assessment is quite urate.


    Sheughed. ‘Don’t worry, I won’t get upset with someone of such low intelligence.


    “Take care, Freya. I’lle see you when you return.’


    Freya smiled. It had been a long time since she had seen Edward, plus she would have to visit her


    master after returning. She hadn’t even greeted her master before participating in thepetition this


    time, not to mention Madam Danie.


    As she contemted this, her phone rang again. It was Radley this time. ‘Do we need to address the


    trending topic?”


    What does it have to do with him?


    Even as Freya secretlyined, a warm feeling suddenly surged inside her, and she typed out, ‘No


    need. I’ll rify it myself.


    After she had sent the message, Radley sent back a video. Freya’s eyes lit up after watching it, and


    she immediately opened her Twitter app to post the video.


    She was already one of the central figures in this discussion, so as soon as the video was posted, the


    inte immediately exploded.


    ‘Why haven’t I seen this video in the live stream?”


    ‘D*mn, is Riley really that mean?’


    On the second floor of the vi, Riley looked at the direction of the discussion and smirked. When she


    discovered the trending topic, she immediately thought that Freya must have intentionally started it.


    Riley was quite angry. Freya pretended to be righteous but secretly did such a despicable thing!


    Fortunately, Riley had a fewizens working for her, and she became even happier seeing that


    everyone was starting to curse Freya.


    There was a sound outside the door, and Riley’s assistant hurriedly walked in. “Miss Freeman, you


    must see the video Freya has posted at once!”


    “What has she posted?” Riley went to Freya’s Twitter profile and saw that she had posted a new video,


    so she clicked on it and took a look. A familiar voice came from the video, which was her own.


    “There aren’t any cameras here, so I’ll just be frank. I told them about your prepared.


    ingredients and let everyone take what they wanted. If you go after them now, you’ll offend everyone in


    this room.”


    Riley was frozen in ce.


    Wait a minute! There were no cameras around the parasol, so why did Freya have a video of that?


    Freya’s video had been circting online for a while now, causing quite a stir.


    ‘D*mn, Riley is really horrible.”


    ‘She’s truly despicable. Is this how the heiress of the Freeman family behaves? How shameless!”


    The tide had turned almost instantly.


    Freya stretchedzily before putting her phone down, but after some thought, she sent a message to


    Radley.


    ‘How did you get this video?’


    Freya stared at the screen, pursing her lips: ‘You aren’t secretly spying on me under the guise of being


    an investor, are you?’


    Radley quickly replied: ‘I’m not spying on you but Riley.


    Radley had prepared several mini cameras and ced them inside and outside Vi No. 4 since the


    day Riley caused trouble for Freya, and there happened to be a hidden camera concealed in the


    umbre frame on the day Riley and Freya argued under the parasol.


    Riley looked at the criticism online and was on the verge of breaking down. Being publicly humiliated


    like this by having the video released made her so angry she wanted to cry.


    That b*tch Freya!


    “It was just a quarrel, but she decided to ruin my reputation!”


    No, she’s already ruined it now.


    Riley’s assistant approached and tried to console her: “Miss Freeman, don’t get angry.”


    Riley immediately pped her. “Didn’t you say there were no cameras there?!”


    Riley’s usually arrogant assistant cowered and dared not move. “Miss Freeman, I really didn’t. notice


    any cameras there.”


    Riley wanted to strike her again, but then her phone rang. ncing at it, she saw that it was her father


    calling. Thinking about her father’s strictness, she trembled and hesitantly. answered the call.


    An angry voice echoed in the room: “Riley,e back immediately!”


    Trembling, Riley replied, “Dad, I’m currently in the middle of apetition. Let meplete it first.”


    “Are you participating in it or embarrassing our family? I’ve been watching the live broadcast over the


    past few days! Is this how I have taught you since childhood? Why do you have to have a


    disagreement with Freya?”


    “Dad! It’s obviously Freya who has a problem with me! What do you think she wanted when she


    intentionally posted that video online?” Riley gritted her teeth. “Our family is not inferior to hers! Why


    are you siding with her, Dad?”


    Her father’s anger intensified. “Do you think Freya only has her family’s support? She also has the


    Marshalls on her side, and even Radley Monaghan admires her! Do you have to cause trouble before


    you’re satisfied?”


    Radley Monaghan?


    Riley paused, quickly recalling the handsome and elegant man before clenching her fists.


    Why does Freya always get the best of everything?


    After some effort, she tearfully promised her father that she would never provoke Freya again. Only


    then did her father angrily hang up the phone.


    In the room, Riley’s assistant looked at her while cowering. “Miss Freeman, let’s ignore Freya from now


    on and treat her as if she’s invisible.”


    Ignoring Freya?


    Riley’s gaze turned cold. Freya had caused this, and Riley couldn’t possibly ept it?


    The inte was buzzing, though Freya had merelypletely cleared her name from the


    bullying rumors. She stayed in the room until 5:30 p.m., then sent a message to Inken to ask about


    Brisa’s situation. There was no progress on that end, so Freya helplessly put down her phone.


    She was about to take out some materials to make incense when an announcement came through the


    inte. “All participating contestants, please go to the vi at the northern edge of Pink Beach before


    6:30 p.m.”


    6:30 p.m.?


    She raised an eyebrow, realizing that she only had an hour left. Dusting off her hands, she prepared to


    change into more casual attire.


    Just then, she heard the inte announcement go on. “We have a surprise for everyone today, so we


    hope you all dress up for the asion.”


    Dress up?


    Freya furrowed her brow, realizing that she had only brought a few casual clothes and a formal suit for


    thepetition. As she rummaged through her wardrobe, she spected on the production team’s


    intentions.


    They were probably nning a dinner party.


    However, her formal suit was gray, which clearly didn’t match the festive atmosphere of a dinner party.


    Just as she was fretting, she heard a knock on the door.


    Chapter 319 Secret Threat


    “Miss Kaufmann, are you in there?” A girl’s voice trembled.


    Freya opened the door to see Leah standing before it.


    “Leah, what do you need?” Freya smiled gently.


    Leah looked at Freya’s stunning face, heart stuttering. Miss Kaufmann really resembled a goddess


    and, more importantly, gentle enough that she even remembered Leah’s name.


    Feeling a little embarrassed, Leah handed over the box she was holding. “I was at the director’s office


    just now and met Mr. West, who was the one introduced as the Monaghan family representative. He


    asked me to give this to you.”


    Freya was a little surprised, knowing that Leah was referring to Connor, and took the box. from Leah


    before thanking her warmly. “Thank you. Pleasee in and have a seat.”


    Freya had a good impression of Leah, though thetter seemed timid. However, Leah shouldn’t be


    afraid of such things at her age.


    Freya put the box down and opened it while Leah sat on the sofa in the room, feeling a bit. uneasy and


    curious as she looked around. After Freya opened the box, she saw a dazzling evening gown inside. It


    looked extremely luxurious up close and shimmered in the sunlight. The intricate and delicate hand


    embroidery on the dress was visible, but from a distance, the dress looked ethereal.


    Leah had never seen such a beautiful dress before, and her eyes widened in amazement. “Wow, what


    a beautiful dress.”


    Freya chuckled softly. “I have been worried that I won’t have anything to wear tonight, but now that’s


    resolved.”


    “Miss Kaufmann, why don’t you try it on now?” Leah eagerly suggested. “We still have an hour before


    we go to the beach.”


    Freya nodded. The dress was handmade, so the process of putting it on wasplex and meticulous.


    However, the most troublesome part was thecing at the back. If she wanted to put it on, she would


    indeed need someone’s help.


    “Thank you for your trouble.” Freya expressed her gratitude.


    After putting on the dress, she held up the hem and was surprised to find that the dress fit her body


    perfectly.


    Her gaze shed briefly. How did Radley know her measurements?


    Leah stood behind Freya and gently tied theces, afraid to hurt Freya. “Does the dress fit you


    comfortably, Miss Kaufmann?”


    Freya responded, “That’s enough. Thank you.”


    As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a loud rumble from Leah’s stomach.


    Freya was surprised, “At this hour? Did you not have lunch, or are you still hungry?”


    Leah’s face darkened slightly before she stuttered, “I-I was busy during lunch, so I didn’t eat.”


    Freya furrowed her brows. After all these years, she still had a good read on people, and Leah’s


    stuttered speech and shifting eyes were obvious signs of lying. Freya had given Leah a lot of snacks


    only yesterday, so Leah shouldn’t have finished all the snacks by now. Plus, there was nopetition


    today, so what could she be busy with? Freya had also given Leah a hundred gold coins at lunchtime,


    so Leah shouldn’t be hungry.


    Freya didn’t press Leah for answers since thetter didn’t seem willing to talk. Instead, she walked off


    to one side, took a pack of biscuits from the snack box, and handed it to Leah. “I guess there will be a


    banquet tonight. If you eat too much, those boring and nosy people will make fun of you, but if you


    don’t eat, you won’t be full. Just have some biscuits as a snack.”


    Leah took the biscuits from Freya’s hand and bit her lip. “Miss Kaufmann, you’re really kind. to me. You


    treat me even better than my own sister does.”


    Freya didn’t pay much attention and chuckled lightly. “You have a sister?”


    After asking, Leah fell silent. “Um-”


    Freya noticed Leah’s hesitant eyes and her conflicted expression and couldn’t help butugh. “Alright,


    you should go back to your room and get ready. You’ve spent so long helping me with my dress.


    Should I apany you and help you with that?”


    Leah shook her head hurriedly, “No need, Miss Kaufmann. I don’t have any formal attire, so I’ll just


    wear something casual.”


    Freya didn’t say much, either.


    In the director’s office, Radley watched the video of Freya on the monitor. Each contestant’s room had


    surveince cameras, which were only covered when they changed or slept. He pondered for a few


    seconds, then turned to Connor, “Go investigate Leah’s background.”


    Connor nodded and left while the chief director beside him discreetly wiped his sweat. Leah was just a


    contestant, and a female one at that. Did the CEO really have to investigate her background just


    because she had a few conversations with Miss Kaufmann? The CEO seemed to be paying too much


    attention to Miss Kaufmann. He should be more careful in the future!


    After leaving the room. Freya didn’t immediately leave but instead waited for Leah on the first floor.


    Leah came down after about ten minutes, wearing a beautiful dress with a coat. However, it clearly did


    not meet the dress code required by the program.


    Seeing Freya, Leah was somewhat surprised. “Miss Kaufmann, haven’t you left yet?”


    “I was waiting for you.” Freya smiled. “The northern shore of Pink Beach is quite far We can talk on the


    way.”


    away.


    Leah immediately nodded excitedly. Among the contestants, Leah was the only one who hadn’t brought


    an assistant. It wasn’t that she didn’t bring one; it was because she simply. didn’t have one. Besides,


    Freya’s assistant, Brisa, was not there today, so the two of them. could walk to the north shore


    together.


    Contestants asionally passed them as they were apanied by their assistants. After walking for


    a while, Freya and Leah heard someone calling them from behind. Freya heard. that it was Helga and


    felt annoyed.

    Looking at Helga coldly, she said, “Miss Zander, do you have something to say?”


    Helga smiled and nced at the remote cameras that were positioned at certain intervals above them.


    Seeing that there were no surveince cameras around, she said, “Miss Kaufmann, you don’t have to


    call me Miss Zander anymore from now on. It sounds too formal. Just call me Lya.”


    “Lya?” Freya sneered inwardly but maintained a calm expression. “Then, I might as well just call you


    Helga.”


    Helga hated her name the most since she thought it sounded very tacky. She was still puzzled by what


    her mother had thought then. She red at Freya, feeling as if she was doing it on purpose. “That’s


    also eptable, but I have been using the name Lya. professionally. So, I am more ustomed to


    being called that.”


    “Alright,” Freya replied nonchntly.


    Helga nced at Leah, who was standing next to Freya, and smiled curiously. “Miss Kaufmann, why


    haven’t I seen Brisa today? I saw her engaging in a heated argument on Twitter earlier. She’s quite


    fierce. Why hasn’t she made an appearance since then, though? I hope nothing has happened to her.”
