The Heiress' Savage Comeback

Chapter 134 He Doesn't Care Anymore

The Surprising Connection Between Harold and Freya The unexpected relationship between Harold and Freya surprised both Gwen and Simone. Gwen shrugged and said, "Whether he has a purpose or not, it's no longer my concern. He told me before that Freya is a relative." She chuckled and added, "So it turns out they're related in that way." Simone patted her shoulder and comforted her, "As your dad said, find someone better than him." Gwen nodded and agreed, "Regardless of any difficulties he may have, the fact that he led me on is true. In any case, it's impossible between him and me. Even if he comes begging on his knees in the future, it won't make a difference." If Harold was facing difficulties and couldn't be with her, why couldn't he just be honest instead of leading her on? Since he made this choice, it was not wrong for her to choose to let go. She was exhausted in this relationship and had moved on. Simone agreed and said, "I support you. Let's find someone better than them. Even if we can't find anyone, it's also fine to be alone." She couldn't reconcile with Leon either. Although she was hurt by Leon in the past, she still believed in love. Life was long, and it was nice to have someone who could accompany you all the way. Of course, if she couldn't find someone who could touch her heart, she wouldn't force it and would be content being alone. Gwen smiled and said, "Yes, let's find someone better than them and make them jealous." She asked Simone, "When I talk to my dad tomorrow, should I tell him that you figured it out through physiognomy?" Simone replied, "You can tell him." She had already been exposed. Even if she didn't investigate her master's matter, those people would still target her. As for why they wanted to target her, Simone had suspicions and doubts in her heart. Now that she had discovered the secrets of the Grays and the Jenners, her suspicions had deepened. "Alright, then I'll tell him." Gwen picked up her phone and dialed. "I'll go find Grandma first and complain to her, asking her to deal with Melinda." Soon, a kind voice came through the phone. "Gwen, do you need something from me?" Gwen immediately put on a pitiful voice. "Grandma, Melinda is bullying me again. She's pressuring me to give away an antique left by Grandpa. I disagreed, so she brought up my dad to pressure me. "And the person she wants to give it to, I really dislike. She flirted with Leon, causing him to break up with his girlfriend." Old Mrs. Foster was stunned and angrily said, "Melinda is becoming more and more outrageous. Leon's previous girlfriend seemed fine to me. But she insisted on meddling and caused them to break up. She usually doesn't care about you, but now she has the audacity to ask you for antiques. How can she have such nerve?" She advised, "Don't pay attention to her. Don't give anything to anyone, even if it's something your grandfather left for you." Gwen continued to feel wronged. "I don't want to give it to her either, but she went and involved my dad without any hesitation." Old Mrs. Foster said, "I'll handle this matter. Whether it's her or your father, if they come looking for you again, tell them to come find me." Gwen finally smiled and said, "Okay. Grandma is always reliable. Thank you, Grandma. I'll come to the mansion in a few days to have a meal with you." Old Mrs. Foster indulgently said, "Good. I'll have them make your favorite dishes." After hanging up the phone, Gwen smirked at Simone and said, "It's settled." Melinda thought she was very powerful, but in reality, she was either being suppressed by her mother-in-law or afraid of strong-willed people. Simone had taught Gwen before that one can counter another, and that fighting back with borrowed strength was truly effective. Simone gave her an approving look and said, "Well done." She thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, was Skyler born by C-section or natural birth?" Gwen replied, "C-section." She continued, "She doesn't like me and Leon for another reason, which is that she had to have another C-section because of us." Simone asked again, "Do you know Skyler's exact time of birth?" Gwen shook her head. "I only know his birth date, but not the specific time. Melinda celebrates his birthday every year, so that's why I remember." But she never celebrated their birthdays. On the other hand, Adam remembered every year and gave them birthday gifts.Simone said, "Then try to find out the exact time of his birth." She added, "Ask the detective to continue investigating Jodie and Freya. Find out if they were born by C-section or natural birth. It would be best to find out their exact birth times." Gwen was smart and asked, "Are you suspecting that there's something wrong with their birthdates?" Simone nodded. "If they were born by C-section, it can be calculated based on the time. If all three of them were born by C-section, there's most likely a problem." Gwen nodded. "I'll have him thoroughly investigate this. Then I'll go to the mansion and try to get some information from the maids who took care of Melinda during her confinement." After discussing this, the two of them talked about the arrangements for their studio. Old Mrs. Foster called Melinda. Not only did she scold her, but she also made Melinda immediately return to the mansion to accompany her in reciting scriptures. Melinda dared not defy Old Mrs. Foster's words, so she reluctantly packed her things and had someone drive her to the mansion. She was even more angry and annoyed with Gwen. She secretly cursed Adam for being useless, not even being able to control Gwen. While sitting in the car, Melinda received a call from Jodie asking about the antique. After placating her for a few words, she hung up and then contacted Leon. She asked Leon to get a mystical tool from Gwen and send it to Jodie. At this moment, Leon was sitting in a coffee shop that Simone used to frequent, staring blankly at the photos of the two of them on his phone. Upon hearing Melinda's request, he didn't comply this time. When she finished speaking, he didn't respond and simply ended the call. He couldn't help but recall what Gwen had said. Melinda only contacted them when she needed something, but she was friendly in her approach. In the past, he lost the woman he loved because of this hypocritical and elusive form of maternal love. Now, he no longer cared about this type of motherly affection. After ending the call with Melinda, he noticed a call from Titus, but he chose to decline it. Shortly after, Harold called, and once again, he rejected the call. Meanwhile, in the underground parking lot of the Gray Group, Harold heard the busy tone and helplessly expressed to Titus, "He's ignoring us." Titus chuckled and remarked, "He's always so stubborn." He had just used his appointment with Leon as an excuse to slip away. Harold inquired, "Should we go our separate ways then?" Titus was reluctant to return. "Let's grab a drink. I'm afraid Jodie will pester us again once we're back." Titus smirked and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being bothered by Freya when you go back?" Harold immediately agreed, "I'm afraid too. Let's have a drink." The thought of encountering Freya upon their return was enough to irritate him. Titus, filled with curiosity, asked once more, "Have you ever been involved with her romantically?" Harold raised an eyebrow in response. "Do you think that's possible? I'm not crazy." Titus had always been perplexed. "Then why do you spend the whole day with her? No wonder Gwen said you're playing both sides, and I can see that you are."
