Chapter 71

After getting off work, Freya returned home and cooked, bathing in the sunset. Meanwhile, Daniel was washing fruit at the sink nearby.The phone he had placed on the kitchen counter suddenly rang. "Freya, can you answer the call for me?"She put down the spatula, picked up Daniel's phone, and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. Freya had no intentions of prying into his privacy, so she directly placed the phone to his ear after answering the call."It's okay, just put it on speaker."Freya did as he asked, and Yvonne's excited voice came through. "Daniel!""What?" Daniel frowned. This younger sister of his was too noisy."How's the matter with the novel's copyright going?" Yvonne eagerly asked."I've arranged for someone to handle it.""When can it be done?""I don't know.""Can it be quicker?" Given Yvonne's impatient nature, she couldn't wait any longer."Hey, I'm your boss," Daniel asserted his authority."But I'm your sister.""Are you talking to me about personal ma

Chapter 72

Freya was completely absorbed in her writing, unaware of Daniel's attention on her.Daniel typed the author's name, Yvette Castro, into the search bar and soon found the author's information.There were only two full-length novels. Love Under the Starlight was completed while Blooming Rose in the Dark was still ongoing. There were also several short stories, each around tens of thousands of words.Daniel's hand paused on the mouse for a few seconds while looking at the ongoing Blooming Rose in the Dark before finally clicking on it.The words were familiar. It was the same content he had once seen while standing behind her, watching her type, delete, and undo repeatedly before deciding what to keep.The fact that his sweet wife was Yvette Castro was something Daniel had expected, but it still made his heart ache a little.With so many words recorded, it must have taken a lot of time considering she typed 2,800 words per hour, along with the time spent on planning and refining.T

Chapter 73

At the CEO's office of Talbot Corporation, Daniel instructed Michael, "Call the person in charge of negotiating the novel's copyright to come over. Also, arrange a meeting with the head of the novel platform.""Mr. Talbot, are you…" It was the first time Daniel had pushed for the progress of a project. However, it made sense for him to show extra care since this was about Yvonne."It's nothing. I just want to check the author's manuscript fee.""Okay, I'll ask them to prepare the relevant information.""Also, have the entertainment company prepare the scriptwriters and actors.""Okay, Mr. Talbot." Michael finally left the office after making sure that Daniel had no further instructions.Daniel already had a plan in mind. He intended to make his sweet wife's book a big hit while preparing a gift for her. However, under no circumstances could Freya find out that he knew her identity.Thinking of how guilty she had looked when she denied it, she probably didn't want him to find out

Chapter 74

"Okay," Connor agreed and lowered his head to continue eating.Freya took her phone and walked to the terrace outside the restaurant before answering the video call.Daniel's bare upper body immediately appeared on Freya's phone screen, startling her so much that she quickly covered the screen with her hand."Have you reached the hotel?" Daniel had just finished showering and was drying his hair while video-calling her."I arrived. Sorry, I forgot to video call you. I'm eating right now," Freya said sweetly, her tone genuinely apologetic.Seeing her obedient demeanor, Daniel decided not to hold it against her. "Are you eating alone?""No, I'm eating with Professor Sloane."Daniel frowned, his tone displeased. "Why are you eating with him?""This is a business trip, and all expenses need to be reimbursed. Of course, we're eating together," Freya explained, thinking Daniel probably wouldn't understand such things as a CEO."You eat by yourself, alone. I'll pay for the meal."F

Chapter 75

Connor hadn't expected his offhand comment to cause such a strong reaction from Freya. Hence, he quickly softened his tone and said calmly, "It's my fault for speaking out of turn, so just keep being yourself. My feelings for you should never be a burden. Besides, those feelings are in the past now. I've gradually lost those emotions for you."Connor picked up his glass and took a sip of ice-cold water while silently reminding himself. From now on, his feelings for Freya would only exist in his thoughts, in the quiet of the night. They would always remain a secret.Freya finally felt relieved after seeing the serious expression on Connor's face, the same serious look he had when demonstrating a carotid artery puncture.She genuinely didn't know how to handle these situations as things were straightforward in her world. She had clearly told Connor she was married, hinting she would never reciprocate his feelings.However, letting Connor misunderstand her this time was indeed her fau

On her phone, it showed that Daniel was calling, and it effectively calmed Freya. She quickly picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.Before Daniel could speak, she lowered her voice and explained the situation, "I'm in danger right now because someone is trying to open my door. I'm about to call the police."Daniel's voice came through, laced with amusement. "I know, it's me. Open the door."What? Why would Daniel come over and scare her like this in the middle of the night? Scaring people could be deadly!Peeking through the door gap, Freya saw Daniel standing outside with a small suitcase in hand.Her heart was still racing as she opened the door, letting him in. "Why on earth are you here in the middle of the night?""I'm collecting the tuition fee," Daniel replied while setting his things down."What tuition fee?" Freya was momentarily confused.Daniel reminded her, "You promised me earlier. You imitated me, and I said you'd have to pay tuition for that.""Righ

Chapter 77

After Freya and Daniel finished getting ready, they headed to the restaurant for breakfast.There was nothing much going on during the meal as they ate quietly without saying much. When someone suddenly joined them at the table, it immediately caught people's attention.Freya politely greeted the newcomer, "Good morning, Professor Sloane."Connor's voice was calm. "Good morning. Who is this?"Before Freya could introduce Daniel, he took the initiative to extend his hand. "I'm Daniel Talbot, Freya's lawful husband." He emphasized the word "lawful".Connor shook his hand with a forced smile. "Nice to meet you, but you're a little older than I expected."Daniel raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. "Likewise."He was 30 years old, while Connor was 32 according to his profile. Connor was definitely older than him.Seeing that neither of the men spoke further, Freya resumed eating. She found the silent war between them baffling, wondering why there was such a strong sense of hostili

Chapter 78

After Daniel entered, he followed the signs and headed straight to the conference room for the medical seminar. The host on stage had already begun introducing the agenda for the seminar inside the spacious conference room.Daniel immediately spotted Freya. She wore a blue surgical cap with dog patterns, her round little head looking absolutely adorable.She was seated in the second row, near the wall by the aisle. Fortunately, there was an empty seat behind her.Daniel hunched over as he walked to the seat directly behind Freya. Once he settled down, he reached out and poked her shoulder with his finger.Freya turned around in confusion, but her face immediately lit up with surprise when she saw it was Daniel. "How did you get in here?"Daniel winked playfully and replied, "It's a secret."That playful wink made Freya's heart skip a beat.Just then, Connor's voice abruptly cut in. "Dr. Somner, please pay attention."It felt like being caught goofing off by a teacher in class,

Chapter 79

The three of them ate at the buffet hall prepared for the seminar, and Connor kept getting interrupted. Every so often, a few women would approach him to ask for his number. They came in waves.Actually, Freya overheard Daniel when he was telling people that Connor was single. So, Connor must have heard it too.Finally, with no choice left, Connor put on a deep, affectionate look and stared at Daniel. "I like men."The women asking for his contact froze for a few seconds, then their gaze shifted between Daniel and Connor. They left with a knowing look on their faces.Seeing their expressions, Freya couldn't help but laugh, almost choking on her food.For the first time, the two men shared a rare moment of understanding as they both looked at the laughing Freya.Under their warning glances, Freya quickly suppressed her laughter. However, her shoulders continued to shake as she lowered her head and focused on eating her meal.The seminar included a one-hour break before continuing

Chapter 80

Daniel remained silent and listened to Connor. "Freya is gifted in medicine. Things might be hard for her now, but she'll definitely thrive in the future. I hope as her husband, you won't hold her back.""I won't. She can do whatever she wants," Daniel said. "There's no need to doubt me.""That's true," Connor concurred. "You're the eldest son of the Talbot family and also the heir of Talbot Corporation—I shouldn't have doubted you. You're indeed a better match for her."Not surprised that Connor had found out about his identity so soon, Daniel replied, "Yeah, so the heavens sent her to me. We're a match made in heaven."Connor downed his glass. "Fine, I get it. Freya is meant to be your wife. Happy?"A smirk crossed Daniel's face as he lifted his glass at Connor and downed it. Before Connor completely blacked out, he mumbled, "Even if you're Freya's husband, you're going to lose her the moment she turns to me if you let her down.""You don't stand a chance," Daniel retorted
