Chapter 76
Moreover, she enjoyed the solitude.
It allowed her more time to do her own things.
So, even though she was alone, Freya stayed at the hot spring resort.
By Sunday afternoon, Freya planned to have dinner and head back home.
At that moment, she received a call from the old lady.
“Mag, I called Matteo this morning and asked him to come to the resort tonight to pick you up. Has
he contacted you?”
No, he hadn’t.
They had agreed to come together to the hot spring resort, but Matteo had yet to show up, and he hadn’t even called her.
Not only that, Isabella also hadn’t contacted her after sneaking off the day before.
But she didn’t intend to mention that to the old lady to avoid trouble.
She said, “Yes.”
The old lady, relieved, said, “That’s good.”
After asking about the old lady’s health, they hung up the phone.
After the sun went down, Freya had dinner at the hot spring resort.
The old lady had said that Matteo would come to pick her up, but by around 9 PM, when she was still waiting at the resort, Matteo had still not arrived.
The hot spring resort was far from her place, and it would take more than an hour and a half to get
back.
Freya didn’t want to wait any longer.

She asked the hot spring resort to arrange a car to take her back.
Once in the car, Freya felt somewhat drowsy.
She wasn’t sure how much time had passed, but she was suddenly woken by the sound of her phone ringing.
It was a call from Jessica.
Freya answered the phone, “Jessie?”
“Damn it! That bitch!”

Freya paused, and Jessica quickly added, “Oh, don’t worry, I’m just cursing someone out.”
“What happened?”
“You know that charity gala I had to attend today? Well, I ran into your worthless father and Raven there!”
“Just now, at the event, a girl started calling Raven a bitch and accused her of stealing her fiancé. She threw a glass of red wine on Raven, and the scene got pretty ugly.
The girl came from a good family and wouldn’t let up. She made a big fuss for quite a while. I was watching the drama unfold when I saw your husband suddenly show up!”
Freya froze for a moment, and then heard Jessica gritting her teeth as she continued,
“This was a charity gala with an all–star lineup, live–streamed too. Though Raven and her crew aren’t exactly big stars, when your husband showed up to support her and took her away, that moment was caught on camera and broadcast live-”
Jessica sent her the live–stream video.
Freya opened it.
The gala had some performances, loud and chaotic, and the camera angle was too far, making it
hard to hear what was being said.
However, the video clearly captured the scene where the girl approached Raven, argued with her,
and poured red wine over her.

Chapter 76
Then, the girl’s fiancé arrived and tried to stop the girl, leading to a heated argument.
Soon, the girl’s family arrived.
Jessica was right; the girl’s family seemed well–off, as they acted very arrogantly toward the Brown family. Logan lowered his posture, seemingly trying to reason with them, but the girl’s family didn’t want to listen at all. They kept insulting the Brown family.
The Brown family’s expressions grew increasingly unpleasant.
It seemed they had been verbally attacked by the girl’s family.
Just then, Matteo appeared.

He immediately took off his coat and draped it over Raven’s shoulders. Then he turned to the girl’s elders, said a few words, and carried Raven out without looking back.
As soon as Matteo appeared to protect Raven, the girl’s family’s attitude changed.
When Matteo began to leave, they chased after him, seemingly trying to explain, but the bodyguards assigned to the gala stopped them.
At the end of the video, the once arrogant girl’s family looked defeated and tried to ease the situation with the Brown family.
Logan and the others, however, gave them no attention at all, walking away behind Matteo.
