Connor looked at Freya and had the urge to nod and admit it.
However, the inheritance contract clearly stated that Connor could not reveal his identity to Freya. Otherwise, he would lose the right to inherit the inheritance.
Connor hid his identity from others because he did not want his life disturbed.
However, he had no choice but to hide his identity from Freya.
Seeing that Connor was silent and couldn’t help but sneer. Then, she said in a playful tone, “Alright, say nothing. 1 already know the answer just by looking at you. How can a person like you afford a villa? Moreover, it’s a villa worth fifty million dollars. I’m indeed overthinking!”
“That’s right, I really can’t afford a villa!”
Connor looked at Freya and nodded before continuing, “Is there anything else? If not, I have to get back to work!”
Freya hesitated momentarily before looking at Connor and saying, “1 don’t want others to know about our relationship. So if someone asks how you know me later, just say we met at a bar. Do you understand?”
“Understood!” Connor nodded.
“Also, since I’ve already promised to marry you, 1 won’t go back on my word. Let’s get our marriage certificate tomorrow!”
Freya knew that her marriage to Connor was an unavoidable fact.
Furthermore, the person who requested Freya to marry Connor had already helped her father’s company overcome the difficulties. Therefore, Freya did not want to delay any longer. She might as well get her marriage certificate with Connor.
“You want to get the marriage certificate so soon?” Connor’s eyes flashed with excitement when he heard Freya’s words.
“Don’t think too much about it. We’re just getting a marriage certificate. You’re still you in the future, and I’m still me. We have nothing to do with each other!” Freya was afraid that Connor would misunderstand, so she hurriedly explained to him.
“Oh, 1 see!” Connor nodded in disappointment when he saw Freya’s attitude.
However, he felt that it was a good thing for him to be able to register his marriage with Freya.
After all, as long as he got the certificate, Connor could rightfully inherit the ten trillion dollar inheritance and no longer need to hide his identity in front of Freya.
“Alright, that’s all 1 wanted to tell you. Go and do your work!” Freya looked at Connor and said indifferently.
“So when are we going to register our marriage tomorrow?” Connor asked.
“Wait for my call. I’ll tell you!” Freya replied softly before turning around and walking toward the private room.
After Connor saw Freya leave, he helplessly turned around and returned to the bar’s front desk.
Although Freya had already agreed to register her marriage with Connor, he was not happy at all for some reason.
He felt that his relationship with Freya seemed to have come to an end, Connor was in a very low mood and did not work as hard as before.
In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.
During these two hours, Connor had been absent-minded. He was thinking about Freya’s cold attitude toward him in the private room and what she had said to him just now.
“Please make way! Make way!”
At this moment, a man in a bar uniform walked in with a large bouquet of roses.
When everyone saw the roses in the man’s arms, they all were curious.
“Wayne, where did you get these roses?”
Lucy asked puzzledly when she saw the rose in the man’s hand.
“This is the rose that the guest in Room 8 wanted. It seems that there is a guest in the room who wants to propose to a woman!” the man replied with a smile.
“Room 8?”
When Connor heard the man’s words, he was momentarily stunned. Then, he remembered that Freya was in Room 8.
When Connor entered the private room, he realized only two girls were in Room 8. One of the girls seemed to have a boyfriend, and Mr. Shenaur Jr. was looking at Freya strangely. Could Mr. Shenaur Jr. want to confess to Freya?
Although Connor knew that even if someone wanted to confess to Freya, it had nothing to do with him, he still couldn’t suppress the curiosity in his heart. He quickly approached the staff member and whispered, “Wayne, give me the roses. I’ll deliver them…”
“That won’t do. The customer inside promised to give me a tip of 200 dollars!” the man called Wayne quickly refused.
Connor didn’t even think about it. He took two bills from his pocket and pushed them into Wayne’s hand. Then, he grabbed the roses and walked toward Room 8.
After Wayne took the money from Connor, he suddenly became a little puzzled. He scratched his head and said, “Why is he so agitated when she is being confessed to?”
After Connor snatched the roses from Wayne, he strode toward Room 8.
“Creak!” Connor reached out and pushed open the door of Room 8.
Mr. Shenaur Jr., sitting on the sofa, saw Connor come in with roses and scolded him with great dissatisfaction, “Are you a f*cking turtle? You’re so slow to buy flowers!”
After saying this, Cody snatched the rose from Connor’s hand and slowly walked up to Freya.
When Connor saw this, he was even more certain that Mr. Shenaur Jr. was going to confess to Freya.
Freya did not notice Connor, who had just entered. Instead, she focused her attention on Mr. Shenaur Jr. and asked with a puzzled expression, “Cody, what are you doing?”
“Plop!” Cody did not even think about it and kneeled before Freya.
When Connor saw Cody kneeling on the ground, he was instantly dumbfounded. This was because Cody, this idiot, was kneeling on the ground with both knees!
The young man beside Cody also noticed something was wrong and quickly reminded him, “Cody, proposals are usually done on one knee…”
“Wouldn’t it be more sincere to kneel?” Cody replied at the top of his voice.
“Well, Cody, you usually only kneel when you visit a grave!” the young man said helplessly.
“F*ck, I don’t need you to f*cking remind me!” Cody cursed angrily, then adjusted his kneeling position. He looked at Freya and said, “Freya, I’ve liked you for a long time. Can you be my girlfriend?”
Freya looked at Cody, dumbfounded. She was helpless because she did not expect Cody to propose to her.
“Freya, I really like you. Can you be with me?”
Seeing that Freya was silent, Cody hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.
“Say yes!”
“Say yes!”
The guests in the private room followed suit and cheered.
Connor looked at Freya, and his expression instantly turned solemn.
He was worried that if Freya agreed to Cody, wouldn’t he become a cuckold?
Although he and Freya were just husband and wife in name, Connor did not want to be a cuckold!
