Chapter 13 Do All Men Like This Kind of Woman? It was not just Radley. Danna was by his side, wearing a black dress and holding his arm. Seeing that, Freya couldn’t help but sneer ironically. She thought that after she had posted that photo, Radley would have some disgust toward Danna. But, it seemed like he still loved Danna deeply. Since the beginning, Freya had believed that the photos of her and Matthew were Radley’s work. So, even though she had already retaliated, she still didn’t like Radley. Surprisingly, in the next second, Danna came over. “Freya, I explained to you before that it was because I love Radley too much that I…” She looked guilty and lowered her eyes, looking very aggrieved. Do all men like this kind of woman? Staring at Danna coldly for a moment, Freya then lightly curved her red lips. “And? “I remember stating that I don’t care about my belongings left in his place or him anymore.” She shifted her gaze to Radley and shrugged indifferently. “Sweetie, have you heard of the saying ‘two peas in a deceitful pod?’” Instantly, Danna’s face changed. She felt a sense of humiliation.
Radley lightly patted her on the back of her head. “Radley…” she called a little aggrievedly. His expression was very cold. His tall and straight figure was accompanied by an inherent sense of nobility and oppression. Not wanting to get involved in the conversation between the two women, he turned to Matthew and said, “Now that the Hood Group is in your hands, I look forward to our collaborations in the future.” Matthew’s gaze turned icy. There was a lot of business between the Monaghan Group and the Hood Group. In the past, when his younger brother was working in the Hood Group, his brother often had disagreements with Radley.

disagreements. Now that Matthew was about to take over the Hood Group, more conflicts had arisen within his own family as well as in the outside world. If the Monaghan Group wanted to do something to the Hood Group at this time, the Hood Group would be at stake. When Matthew thought of this, his expression became even grimmer. Unlike Danna, who was immersed in love, Freya had thought about the situation too. She promised Matthew, “My brother and I will support you.” Radley apparently remembered that he still didn’t know who Freya’s brother was. Just as he was wondering, he noticed the expression on Matthew’s face change. Matthew stroked Freya’s head and said, “Thanks, Kittie.” The tone was very intimate. Taken aback, Freya then realized that Matthew might be deliberately provoking Radley, so she accepted the gesture. Looking at this scene, Radley remained expressionless, and his gaze remained ice-cold. Just as he was about to leave with Danna, Danna suddenly said to Freya, “Freya, next week is Madam Rosie’s birthday. She told me that I can invite some friends. Would you like to come?” Danna smiled sweetly as if Freya didn’t give her a hard time just now. On the other hand, Freya raised an eyebrow. Danna was referring to Rosie Hamilton, Radley’s mother. And she was putting herself in the position of a host. The Monaghans would definitely send an invitation to Freya due to her family background, so she didn’t need Danna’s invitation at all. But for the time being, Freya didn’t want Radley to know her identity. Besides, she was curious about what Danna was up to. So, Freya smiled and nodded. “Sure.” …
Soon, the time had come. It was the day of Rosie’s birthday banquet. Freya didn’t go with Braxton but drove to the venue alone. She was wearing a low-key black chiffon dress and a pair of red high heels, exuding a strong aura. As soon as she entered the venue, she attracted countless gazes. “Who is this beauty? Is she taken? Can I hit on her?” “If I’m not mistaken… isn’t that Freya Kaufmann?” “Mr. Monaghan’s ex-wife? And she’s here to attend Madam Rosie’s birthday banquet? Wouldn’t it be awkward?” “I have to say that Freya has changed so much. It’s true that women become more beautiful after divorce.” “Indeed, she’s stunning. I wonder whether she’s here to make trouble today.” Freya heard the surrounding gossip. Yet, her expression remained unchanged. Not far away, Danna was talking to Rosie smilingly, holding the latter’s arm. The moment she saw Freya, a touch of coldness flashed in her eyes. But, she quickly put away that coldness and asked softly, “Madam Rosie, is Radley on the way here?”
