“Connor, when can the investor come over?”
Maya had already prepared the contract for Freya. She was just waiting for Connor to call the investor over so that they could return the shares.
Maya turned to look at Connor, her face full of anticipation. After all, Connor was their only hope now.
“Well, the investor was not in Porthampton right now. He can probably only make it tomorrow…” Connor said awkwardly to Freya and Maya.
“He can only come over tomorrow?” Maya froze when she heard what Connor said.
Freya shook her head in disappointment. She had already expected this outcome.
Connor was just a poor guy who delivered food. He had no money or connections. How could he know any investors?
“Hah, how can it be such a coincidence? That investor just so happens not to be in Porthampton. Do you even know any investors at all?”
At this moment, Cody, sitting at the side, sneered.
Connor looked at Cody indifferently and said expressionlessly, “Although the investor is not in Porthampton today, he will rush over tomorrow morning!” “Why are you still bragging to me now?”
Cody slowly stood up and approached Connor. Then, he said expressionlessly, “Can’t you just admit that you can t find an investor now? Why are you still putting up such a huge act?”
“That’s right, Freya. It s not that 1 want to criticize you, but how can you find such a loser to be your fiance?”
“Not only is he useless, but he doesn’t have any skills at all. He only knows how to brag all day. Our company’s capital chain is broken now. Other than Mr. Shenaur Jr., no one can come and invest in this company!1‘
“If this kid can find an investor, I’ll kneel and kowtow to him now!”
After the shareholders in the meeting room discovered that Connor had not found an investor, they began laughing at him. Everyone looked at Connor as if they were looking at a fool.
“Connor, please leave!”
Freya was also very disappointed and said to Connor in a low voice.
“Freya, I…” Connor wanted to explain.
“Alright, you don’t have to explain anything to me. I should have known you wouldn’t know any investors, but I don’t understand why you lied. Do you think this is fun?” Freya said coldly to Connor.
“The investor just happened to be in Beverly Hills today..” Connor said with a trembling voice.
Connor might not care about what others thought of him, but he did not expect that even Freya would think of him this way.
At this moment, he finally felt how frustrating it was to be misunderstood!
“Alright, Connor, you don’t have to explain to me. You disappoint me!” Freya shouted at Connor.
In an instant, the entire conference room fell silent.
Everyone’s mouth was agape as they looked at Freya in shock. No one had expected the usually gentle and refined Freya to have such an aggressive side.
“Connor, you disappoint me. I originally thought that although you were a little poor, your character was quite good, and you were very honest. But 1 didn’t expect you to lie to me. You lied to me again and again.”
Freya walked to Connor and said extremely coldly.
“I ”
Connor opened his mouth to speak.
“You what? From today onward, our engagement is canceled. Anyway, my company is going bankrupt now, and I’ll carry a large debt. I don’t mind taking on the debt of my father’s company. Even if I, Freya Phillips, go to jail, I won’t marry someone like you!” Freya shouted angrily at Connor.
“You want to cancel the engagement with me?” When Connor heard Freya’s words, he froze.
“That’s right, 1 want to break the engagement with you!”
Freya nodded firmly.
Originally, Freya had no choice but to become Connor s fiancee because her father’s company had financial problems.
Freya once asked Connor to agree to three of her conditions, saying that she would only be husband and wife in name and that the two would play their games in private without disturbing each other.
However, Freya was just saying it. A woman like her simply could not accept that she would get together with someone else after marriage.
Therefore, Freya had been secretly investigating Connor recently, trying to understand and accept him slowly.
Through these few days of investigation, Freya had a very deep understanding of Connor. Freya felt that besides being poor, there was nothing majorly wrong with Connor.
T hat was why Freya had invited Connor to her company today, wanting to register their marriage.
She planned to let Connor move into her house after she registered her marriage with him. Although she couldn’t accept sleeping in the same bed as Connor in the short term, she could let Connor stay in another room. They could get to know each other. Perhaps she could slowly accept Connor.
However, Freya had never imagined that something like this would happen today.
Even if Connor didn’t say a word or do anything today, Freya wouldn’t be so angry. She knew that Connor couldn’t care about these things.
However, Connor insisted on stepping up to cause trouble. He even bragged that he could find investors to invest in her company.
Freya couldn’t accept Connor lying to her like this, so her thoughts changed. She wanted to break her engagement with Connor, let her company go bankrupt, and finally shoulder her father’s debt.
Now, Freya would rather bear a high debt and even risk going to jail than be with someone like Connor for the rest of her life.
Connor looked at Freya with a complicated expression. He did not expect things to turn out this way.
“Are you sure you want to break the engagement with me?”
Connor asked Freya in a low voice.
“Yes. You’ve really disappointed me today! 1 must cancel the engagement with you!” Freya replied firmly.

Connor stood where he was and looked at Freya, hesitating. He really wanted to leave now.
However, Connor knew that if he left now, he would lose the right to inherit the ten trillion dollars inheritance.
Connor would lose everything that should have belonged to him just because of a small matter. Connor was very reluctant to accept it..
