Female Novel
Chapter 1674
I wanted to tell the truth. It would be riskier to have one extra person know that the divorce was fake. I could only go all in.
"It doesn't matter.” I put down the tableware in my hand, took a napkin from the table, and wiped the corners of my mouth slowly. "Do you know howscared and helpless I was, when I almost lost the two children in my belly? Yet, he didn't care about anything. Not only did he make a concession, butalso completely offended the Forbes family by breaking Matt's hands. I don't want to accompany his madness again. I don't want to be a failed motheragain.”
Freya fell into silence. After a long while, she sighed and spoke. "Have you really thought about it?”
"The divorce agreement has been signed, how could it be fake?" Those words were soft and powerless, but they made me look indifferent, as if I hadreally given up everything and could not be moved.
Freya somehow believed it. She lowered her beautiful eyes and exclaimed, "It's so hard for you to be together. How could this be? Why did you justend up like this..."
She seemed to be very sad when she talked to herself. If it weren't for knowing that she and Zachary's relationship was firm, I would almost havethought that she was hurt in her relationship and had come to seek comfort from me.
Knowing that she was kind, I did not want to make her worry, so I reached out and patted her with the back of her hand. "Don't worry about me. Nomatter what, for the sake of the children, I will live a good life.”
Freya raised her head and her gaze was a little mysterious. "You seem to be a different person today."
She was born smart. Her dazzling eyes were wide open, as if she could read people's minds.
With a guilty conscience, I raised my eyebrows and turned my face to the side. "Maybe I was frightened. I didn't have a good rest last night..."That reason was not convincing at all. Freya stared at me for a while but did not reply. I did not know if she believed me.
At that instant, a servant came in and reported, "Miss Reid, there is an old man called Eddison Gavlin outside, saying that he is looking for you.”
We only met each other once. What was this cunning old fox here for?
However, after considering it for awhile, I decided to be polite. LMoreover, Hendrix and I had fallenout with each other in the public'seyes,so there was no reasomfor meto-avoid his enemy. "Bring_him in."Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Freya helped me up to sit down on the sofa in the living room. While walking, she asked, "It's unusual to see Eddison visiting the Reid Manor."
"You knew-that?" I smiled. Ifcollecting-gossip was also a kindoftalent, Freya could be regarded asgifted: Her ability to know somethingabout’ everything was even betterthan that of Tobias’ Contentbélongs to NovelDrama.Org ~
"Charles and Eddison did not seeeye to eye. Iti S not a secret in JaroldCity. However, the public said that —they woutd never interact with eachother in-their ives.

Women always had endless strength when it came to knowing new gossip.I felt a little helpless and answered to disappoint her. “You're overthinking. My godfather is not here, they can't meet."Just as I finished speaking, I heard footsteps. A servant led Eddison into the living room. Freya helped me up, and I stood up carefully.
Eddison quickened his pace and waved his hands, looking worried like an anxious elder. "Sit down, sit down, your health is the most important...”
