Chapter 1742
The Moare family was very powerful, and there were quite a number of reporters present during Freya''s ribbon-cutting ceremony. Therefore, I could
not stay with Hendrix all the time. On the contrary, I spent most of my time by Freya''s side.
Of course, there was also Zachary.
The both of us were absent-minded, but Frey a was on brand as usual. Whether it was talking to reporters or friends who''de to congratte her,
she was able to deal with the whole process with ease. It was as if she did not notice the tension brewing.
This made me even more anxious and ufortable. I couldn''t bear to see her being kept in the dark. Then again, I worried about whether she could
ept the truth if she knew.
Finally, the event was over. Freya, as the host, went with her assistant to see her guests off. Zachary and I stayed at the venue
As he watched Freya walk into the elevator, Zachary tugged at his neck tie and appeared very uneasy.
"You''re the one who called her here?" I couldn''t even bring myself to be cordial and put on a long

Zachary nced at me and did not reply. His expression turned even more ugly.
He seemed very arrogant in my eyes. I immediately red up and said sarcastically, "Huh, Professor Holt. I knew you were good at teaching. but little
did I know that your ability to two-time is even better."
Zachary remained silent as his face turned red. It was obvious that he was suppressing his anger, and his patience was wearing thin with all the
secrets going on.
I continued, "Freya is my best friend. Mr. Holt, you''d better remember what you said. I hope there won''t be a repeat of today''s situation.”
Stephanie, his mistress, came here this day. To me, her audacity to do this was an utter humiliation to Freya. One could only fully understand the
hatred through personal experience. I would not allow Zachary and that woman to fool Freya like that.
Zachary was probably provoked. He opened his mouth and wanted to fight back. However, just as he was about to speak, the elevator opened again
Freya, who was holding onto her dress, walked out with an expressionless face.
Zachary had to swallow his words.
For fear that Freya would see through me, I deliberately lowered my head to avoid her gaze.
"What are you guys talking about?" Perhaps Freya was a little tired. She''d suddenly changed into a different person, and there was not a single smile
on her face.
It was normal for people to put on facades in life.
"It''s nothing’ Zachary tock over the
conversation and naturally walked
over tofreya. He held Freya''s hand
and greeted ner kindly, "You''ve
worked hard today. Leave the rest to
your employees. Go back and rest.”
It seemed like I was not needed as the third wheel.
Freya smiled a little and did not refuse. "Okay. as you say. I''ll send Arianna back first.”
Then, the two of them locked at me together.
This was too much for me. I would rather take a taxi. "No, the Reid family''s driver is waiting outside. You can head back first.”
"Well then, see you," Freya said.
After that, the couple walked to the elevator hand in hand.
Locking at their backs, I couldn''t help but sigh deeply.
How well- matched the two of them were! How
could such a happy family fall apart?
"If you keep looking at them, you''re going to let it show.”
Hendrix''s voice startled me. I turned

"Looks like you know what I''m thinking." I said while squinting at him as if I was trying to threaten him.
