Chapter 51 Let’s Go On Separate Ways
Meanwhile, Radley was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and a tablet on his lap in Smalzot
Yard.
He furrowed his eyebrows after banning yet another couple of people who cursed in the live stream.
At that time, he recalled that Sylvia’s surname was indeed Marshall when Freya mentioned that Ryan.
Marshall was her cousin, and she was from the Marshalls in Vroria.
Radley was not a local from Caltun. So, he didn’t think that Ryan, a famous celebrity in the
entertainment industry would have anything to do with the wealthy Marshall family.
He felt momentarily relieved at the thought of that. But, he thought of Danna after just a while.
Then, he logged out of the live stream and looked at Danna’s Twitter. He noticed the photo post from
“Roaring Lion in the East” was still there, and there were many comments criticizing her underneath the
post.
Danna… Is it her doing again?
At that moment, Radley only pinched his brows. Is it another unintentional mistake?
However, his phone rang before he could come up with a conclusion, and it was from Danna.
He heard her weeping voice on the other end when he answered the phone call. I’m so silly, Radley. I
think I’ve made another mistake.”
Radley’s expression showed a hint of indifference.
Then, he suppressed his disappointment and replied calmly. “Tell me what happened.”
Danna explained intermittently that she did not know about Ryan and Freya’s scandal, and that she
posted. a photo of “Roaring Lion in the East” because she had re-watched it recently. She was
impressed by the performance of the veteran actors. Therefore, she posted a photo from the TV show
to somewhat show her respect, but she did not expect people would associate it with the false scandal.
Then, Danna stuttered for a while before she continued, “I didn’t dare to say anything when I saw
people started speculating about it because I caused you trouble by speaking recklessly last time. So, I
stayed silent this time. But, I didn’t expect…”
Radley sighed deeply after Danna finished speaking, and he realized that his love and empathy toward
Danna had already dissipated to a great extent.
At that moment, he felt only unfamiliarity and disappointment toward her.
How has Danna become like this? Or is this how she always is?
“So, it was another mistake, huh?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow many unintentional mistakes does it take before she learns?
“What should I do, Radley? Ryan’s reproval was clearly for me, and now I’m getting criticized badly…”
Suddenly, Danna’s voice was heard with a sense of urgency and pity. “My heart is beating so fast,
Radley. I think I’m going to get it again.”
It wasn’t a secret that Danna had a heart condition.
At that time, Radley’s gaze turned cold, and he sounded weary as he answered, “I’ll handle this,
Danna.”
“I knew you are the best, Radley.”
“Let’s go on our separate ways after that.”
It was dead silent on the other end of the phone call for a few seconds before Danna asked with her
voice trembling. “Why? Didn’t you promise to marry me, Radley?
I see. Do you also believe in what people are saying on the Internet? But, I really didn’t mean it. You
know how much I love you, Radley. I’ve admired you since I was little. Do you remember that I almost
died trying to save you?”
At that time, Radley exuded an icy aura as he used up the last bit of his patience and sympathy toward
Danna. “I’ll compensate you with something else, but not by marrying you.”
“But, you promised me!” Danna yelled with a sharp voice.
“I don’t want to look into what you are doing behind me, and let’s just end things there.” Then, Radley
hung up the phone.
Incidents such as the video footage during his mother’s birthday banquet, Danna’s little tricks, her fake
illness, and her schemes toward Freya were all proofs that eventually helped Radley to see through
Danna’s true nature ever since his divorce from Freya.
He felt like his judgment toward Danna was clouded by his childhood memories of her. Her eyes were
as bright as the sun, and nothing could conceal her innocent face and pure heart back then.
However, he finally realized the truth now,
It was time to say goodbye to the sweet girl in his memory.
Then, Radley sat in the living room for a while with his eyes closed, and images of Freya kept
appearing in his mind.
He couldn’t help but purse his lips. What was wrong with him lately? Why did he keep thinking of her?
Perhaps it was because he was used to having Freya after they had been through so much together in
Smalzot Yard. Now, even the change in the smell and the desolate vibe in Smalzot Yard made him feel
uncomfortable.
Was it as simple as he thought? Or, could there be something else?
Radley never tolerated ambiguities. He would see matters to their ends himself if he made a decision to
face them.
Then, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Freya.
In Kaufmann Residence, Freya had just ended her live stream, and she was removing her makeup
slowly
in front of her desk.
Meanwhile, Edward appeared he was dutifully packing up the equipment for the live stream, but in
truth, he took the chance to glance at Freya from time to time.
“Can I still be your assistant after I graduate, Frea?” Edward asked after a slight hesitation.
Freya was a little surprised. “You’re a photography major at Evergreen University. Can you imagine
how many big companies will come and offer you high salaries for your service? Why do you want to
be my assistant?”
Edward nodded. “I think working with you is just as great as working for big companies.”
Then, Freya chuckled. “Okay, you can continue to be my assistant if you haven’t changed your mind by
the time you graduate.”
At that moment, Edward was overjoyed. His eyes were shining brightly on his handsome face.
“Do you want a facial mask, Frea? Let me get it for you,” Edward said.
Freya noticed her phone was ringing on the table right after Edward went out. So, she picked it up, and
she saw it was from Radley.
The message read, ‘I will go to the Joint Department to supervise the project every evening starting
tomorrow as I value this project very much. I hope you will also take it seriously as I do.”
Freya twitched her mouth slightly in confusion.
What does he mean? Is he asking me to go to the Joint Department in West Geft in the evening as
well?
Freya thought it was fair, so she agreed and replied with her answer since it would only take half a day,
and they were business partners.
She had nothing better to do in the evening anyway. At that time, she just hoped that the early phase of
the project, which could take several months, would be done quickly. She was afraid that she would not
be able to hide her pregnancy for that long.
Then, Edward returned with two different types of facial masks. One was contained in a bottle while the
other was in a bag.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Which one do you prefer, Frea?” Edward asked with his eyes shining ever so brightly.
“I’ll take this one.”
Edward didn’t leave when Freya applied the facial mask. He only sat on the sofa next to her while
looking. at his phone.
“Danna is getting a lot of criticisms, Frea. Do you want to see it?”
However, Freya didn’t dare to move around too much as she had a facial mask on her face. She only
mumbled, I’m not interested in someone who puts all her energy into small-time and pointless.
competition while treating everyone like rivals. That’s why she’s unsuccessful. I’ll run out of time and
energy if I get involved too much with someone like her. I still have a company to run. All this matter
takes is just a little bit of clarification, and that’s the end of the story. You will do well to remember not to
waste your time on small times now, Edward.”
Edward replied with a nod, “Understood, Frea.”
“Alright, it’s getting late. You should go back to the university.” Then, Freya removed the facial mask on
her face, wiped her hands, and stood up. “I’ll drive you back.”
“I’ll be fine, Frea. I can take a cab and go back myself.”
Edward was a mature and sensible young man. Freya had many elder brothers, but she had never had
a younger brother.
She smiled before patting Edward’s shoulder. “I insist. Say, why are you acting like a stranger when
you can call me Frea?”
Then, they walked out side by side. Freya looked at Edward after they got in the car. “Not bad. I see
you. have bulked up lately.”
Freya had an elder sister-like mentality toward Edward as if she was taking care of her younger
brother.
Edward lived frugally and often went hungry back in the day, and he appeared relatively thin during his
teenage years before meeting Freya.
Now, he looked much better.
“I’ve gained some weight indeed.” Edward scratched his head as he chuckled awkwardly.
Then, Freya looked at him and said. “I wonder if you’re still growing. You’re roughly six feet two now. It
might be too much if you grow any taller.”
However, Edward fell silent for a moment before saying. Tm already twenty-one years old, Frea. I’m
way past the age for growing”
Why does she always treat me like a child?
