Chapter 340
After finishing the oatmeal, Hayes‘ stomach–ache had greatly subsided.
Claiming exhaustion, he got everyone out of the room, eager to share the good news with Teresa.
Frederick was worried that Hayes he might still be hungry, and he decided to head to the kitchen and ask Sadie to
make some soup. But just as he reached the staircase, he saw Yuna and Manley, glammed up and laughing, coming
his way.
They were carrying bags full of shopping spoils. It was clear they’d been having a good time.
An icy chill crossed Frederick’s face as he frowned, “See me in my room.” With those words, he strode off, leaving
Yuna with an enigmatic silhouette.
His words were simple and emotionless, yet they filled Yuna with excitement.
For three years, Freddie had never allowed her to set foot in his room. Even serious discussions were held in his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtstudy. So, was Freddie finally willing to get closer to her?
Suppressing her thrill, Yuna quickly instructed Manley, “Stay in your room tonight, don’t look for me!”
After speaking, Yuna dashed back to her room, changed into a black lace mini skirt, and couldn’t wait to rush into
Frederick’s bedroom.
Inside the room, Frederick had already changed out of his formal attire into a black robe. The collar formed a “V”
at his chest, revealing a patch of his tan, healthy skin and sexy collarbones.
Freddie had changed too? It seemed he was even more eager than her!
Yuna, looking at Frederick’s Adam’s apple, swallowed hard and flung herself into his arms, cooing, “Freddie, this is
the first time you’ve invited me into your room.”
“Out.” The cold words echoed in Yuna’s ears, her body froze, her mind reeling.
“Freddie…didn’t you ask me to…”
“And you think I asked you here for what?” Frederick’s face was icy, making Yuna blush
even more.
“What else could it be if you asked me to come here.” She said and snuggled closer to him, but Frederick stepped
back, leaving her to fall into empty air.
She was a mother of two, yet still filled with juvenile thoughts. She really needed to grow up!
Yuna, looking embarrassed, met Frederick’s grim gaze, only to be met with a barrage of questions.
“Do you know about Hayes‘ irregular eating habits?”
Yuna was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Frederick to summon her late at night because of Hayes, the mute.
She had thought that Frederick was finally accepting her. Damn it! A flash of resentment flickered in Yuna’s eyes.
But thinking that Frederick rarely paid attention to the mute, his sudden inquiry made her wonder, had he
discovered something?
How could Frederick possibly know that Hayes wasn’t just eating irregularly? It was Yuna who had directly deprived
him of the right to eat!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen he first arrived at Vespera, because of Marguerite’s betrayal, he dared not trust anyone. So, he didn’t have
any servants at home.
Sometimes Jocelyn would help with the cooking, but most of the time, she was like Robert, running around to
different clients‘ companies for Frederick’s new corporation. Who would have thought that this would provide Yuna
an opportunity to bully Hayes? Yuna would always find fault with Hayes even when he did nothing wrong, and
depriving him of food was her punishment.
Even when he was allowed to eat, she would save the most nutritious food for Manley. That’s why Hayes, slowly
adapting to it, would only eat vegetables.
Afraid that her actions would be discovered by Frederick, Yuna immediately widened her innocent eyes and
explained, “Freddie, Hayes has always been introverted and silent. Every time he doesn’t eat, I don’t know what to
say, I worry that he might take offense and hurt his pride.”
Frederick scoffed, “Afraid of hurting his pride? But you haven’t been shy about hitting him!” “Freddie, I only hit
Hayes when he makes a serious mistake, and only when I can’t help it. Spare the rod and spoil the child, I need to
discipline him!”
“Discipline?” Frederick’s cold and questioning gaze fixed on Yuna’s face, “Is it really just discipline?”
