Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Knock knock!
Freya arrived at Connor’s room and knocked on the door lightly.
“Who is it?” Connor’s voice asked.
Freya stood outside the door and asked softly, “Connor, are you up?”
“Yeah, I’m up!” Connor hurriedly replied when he heard Freya’s voice. Then, he quickly walked to the door and opened it.
“We came back so late last night. 1 thought you hadn’t woken up yet!” Freya said.
“Hehe, I just woke up!”
Connor said with a smile when he saw Freya. He thought that Freya was here to wake him up.
Freya looked at Connor and said awkwardly, “Oh, did i wake you up just now? Then do you want to sleep for a while longer?”
“It’s okay. Come in. I’ll be fine after washing up!” Connor hurriedly stood aside for Freya.
After she walked into his room, she looked around and said, “How is it? Have you gotten used to living in this hotel?”
“It’s pretty good. I’ve never stayed in such a good hotel in this country!” Connor said with a smile.
“It’s good that you’re used to it!” Freya nodded lightly and sat on the bed.
After Connor saw the expression on her face, he also realized that something was wrong. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, “Why are you looking for me? Why do i feel like you’re acting weirdly today?”
“Uh…”
Freya looked at Connor and was stunned for a moment. Then, she said in a low voice, “Actually, it’s nothing. 1 just have a question to ask you”
“A question for me? What’s the problem?” Connor asked with a smile.
“The vase that my dad broke last night was actually real, right?”
Freya didn’t beat around the bush with Connor at all.
Connor’s expression turned serious when he heard this. After all, only Connor and Titus knew about the vase. He couldn’t understand how Freya knew about it.
“Yes, the vase that my dad broke yesterday was real!” Freya repeated seriously.
Connor frowned and replied, “Why would you say that the vase was real? President Jenkins already admitted that the vase was fake yesterday!”
“Although President Jenkins said that the vase was fake, he donated another vase to the Porthampton Museum this morning. 1 think if the vase yesterday was fake, then the one left in his restaurant should be fake too. However, all the experts in Porthampton said that the vase was real.”
Freya tried her best to explain the doubts in her heart to Connor. After hearing Freya’s words, Connor’s face was filled with helplessness. He couldn’t help but inwardly curse Titus.
Originally, this matter had already come to an end, but who would have thought that Titus would actually donate the vase? Moreover, if you say you want to donate, then just donate. Why are you making it so high-profile?
And now, Freya had realized something wasn’t right.
The expression on Connor’s face immediately became nervous because he was thinking about how he should explain this to Freya. Freya was a meticulous woman, so she could see his expression change.
And Connor’s nervousness at this moment could precisely prove that what she said just now was true.
“Connor, the vase that my dad broke yesterday was real, right? It’s just because you said something to Titus, or the two of you reached an agreement, that Titus admitted that the vase was fake in front of so many people, right?”
Freya looked at Connor with a serious tone.
When Connor heard Freya’s words, a hint of helplessness flashed across his face!
Freya was too smart. Nothing could escape her eyes.
“Connor, am I right?”
Freya was even more convinced that her guess was correct after seeing Connor remain silent.
Connor saw that Freya had already said it so bluntly. If he continued to make things up, Freya probably wouldn’t believe him. Therefore, he nodded and said in a low voice, “You’re right. The vase that Uncle Sean broke yesterday was real!”
“It’s actually true?” Freya’s large, bright eyes stared at Connor in front of her with an expression of disbelief. Although she had already guessed that this would be the case, Freya still found it hard to believe when Connor personally admitted it.
“That vase is real, but I knew that you can’t take out 20 million at all. That’s why I asked Titus to say that the vase is fake. Only then can you leave in peace!” Connor said expressionlessly.
At this moment, Connor’s brain was working at high speed. He was thinking about how to explain this to Freya later.
If he admitted that he was actually Titus’s boss, all his previous efforts would be in vain. However, if he didn’t admit it, Freya wouldn’t believe him even if he found some other excuse.
He was very conflicted now. He did not know how to smooth this matter over.
“Connor, you’re not lying to me, right?”
Freya’s eyes widened as she shouted at Connor in shock.
“Things have already come to this point. Do you think I still need to lie to you?” Connor replied helplessly.
“But how do you know someone like Titus Jenkins? What is your relationship with Titus? Why did he listen to you?”
Freya, who had found out the truth, was filled with confusion. There were simply too many strange things about this matter.
Connor looked at Freya in front of him and did not say anything because he did not know how to explain these things to her.
Freya saw that Connor didn’t say anything and continued to press him. “When we were at the restaurant, Titus was so polite to us because of you, right?”
“Yes.” Connor nodded.
“Then what is your relationship with Titus Jenkins?” Freya asked in confusion.
Hearing Freya’s words, Connor couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air. He then explained, “Actually, I’ve known Titus for a long time. The reason why Titus gave us red wine in the restaurant was to please me..”
