Chapter 321 Radley Confessed to Freya

+15 Bonus

Leah observed Riley and Radley from a distance at the table as she leaned toward Freya, “Miss Kaufmann, it seems

like Riley is showing much interest in Mr. Monaghan.”

Freya’s face turned sour at the words, and she let out a low grunt. “Leave them be. It’s none of our business.”

She was worrying about Radley’s condition, but he and Riley had been chatting for quite some time after Riley

approached him. Worse, he even smiled at Riley.

Hmph, men. Why did I even meddle in his affairs in the first place? It’s not like we’re related, so why should I care

about his health? Freya stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth, causing her cheeks to puff up.

Not far away, Radley’s gaze shifted toward her. A slight smile appeared at the corner of his lips at the sight of her

displeased expression.

Interpreting the smile as a sign that he agreed with her, Riley smiled. “Mr. Monaghan?”

“We have chosen a director for our new perfume brand.”

“You have?” That was fast!

Riley clenched her teeth. “I can compete with the person you have chosen to show you I’m worthy.”

“You’re no match for her.” Radley’s face turned cold as he ignored the glass she handed to

him.

His words were like a slap to her, as her cheeks were burning with humiliation.

To her, it was currently the easiest way to get close to him.

“Then, I can be the deputy director. If not, I don’t mind being a general perfumer at all. After all, starting from the

bottom is the only way to make you believe in my abilities,” she suggested.

The people nearby overheard her words and turned to the pair. Some of them with envy while the others merely

out of curiosity, but everyone perked up their ears for the rest of the

story.

“Yes, the Monaghan Group is indeed hiring for the perfume brand, but it’s up to the director to make the hiring

decision. I won’t interfere with anything she does.”

“Who’s the director?”

Radley’s lips curled up at the question. Then, he began to walk toward Freya,

Confused, Riley immediately followed him. Is the brand director also here today?

The visage of Freya fostered more questions in her mind when Radley led her to Freya.

She still remembered her father telling her that Radley had feelings for Freya.

So, it was her all the time?

“Miss Kaufmann.” Radley’s voice was low and mellow, devoid of the coldness he showed to others. “Miss Freeman

wants to join your team. What do you think?”

Freya only glared at him with a cold expression. Is he standing up for me now?

Just by looking at Riley’s expression, Freya felt much better.

“We don’t need her,” she answered coldly.

Her reply ignited Riley’s anger. “Freya, who are you to refuse me? Are you planning to bring our grievances to

work? A person like you isn’t competent to be the brand director of the Monaghan Group!”

Raising her eyebrows, Freya smiled arrogantly. “Miss Freeman, please go online to read the news and the netizen’s

opinions about you. When hiring for my team, I prioritize one’s integrity, values, and morality, instead of

professionalism. Unfortunately, you lack these three qualities. You’re just an arrogant and unreasonable woman

who’s good at guilt- tripping.”

Freya’s words were harsh, and she rarely confronted people like this.

It angered Riley even more that she wanted to slap Freya right away. Who does she think she is? She’s new to the

industry. She was just lucky to make it to the top 50 in the contest. She’s not as good as she thought!

The crowd, at first, only wanted to hear the latest gossip between Riley and Radley. They didn’t expect Radley to

drop a bomb.

Not only did Monaghan Group plan to enter the perfume industry, but they had also appointed Freya as the brand

director.

“They want Freya to be the director? But the contest isn’t even finished yet. Aren’t they taking a big risk here?”

“When I saw the list of the investors, I aimed for a good ranking in the contest so I could join the Monaghan Group. I

didn’t know they had asked Freya to be the director!”

“But it’s too early to tell, isn’t it? What if she gets eliminated before she makes it to the top 20? It will embarrass

them. Can you imagine a rookie being the brand director? She’ll probably ruin the project of establishing the

perfume brand

The crowd was bothered by different thoughts. Those who wanted to work in the Monaghan Group after the contest

now learned who their future team leader would be. They also worried that Freya couldn’t make it to the top 20,

which, in fact, would embarrass them too.

Those who weren’t interested in working for the Monaghan Group looked at Freya with envy. The fact she was able

to lead a team as the brand director right after her “debut” and having the Monaghan Group to back her made

them jealous.

As all eyes fell on her, Riley felt like she made a clown of herself.

Biting her lip, she thought of words to shoot back. She had to refrain herself from doing so as Radley was standing

right beside her.

She turned to him with a sad and innocent look, but he didn’t even spare a glance at her. Instead, he walked over to

Freya’s side and stated, “You look like something was bothering you a while ago.”

Feeling a little guilty, Freya replied gruffly, “No, you’re wrong. I feel rather good.”

Riley didn’t know whether to leave or stay. She felt as if the act had tramped her dignity underfoot in front of

everyone and turned her into a laughingstock.

Helga slowly stepped out from the crowd.

She approached Riley with a polite and elegant smile. “Miss Freeman, I can understand your passion for perfume. If

you wouldn’t mind, you’re more than welcome to join my team as the brand director. Will you consider it?”

Freya coldly glanced at Helga. She’s giving Riley a way out of the awkward situation.

Riley continued to gaze at Radley’s side profile, waiting for his response. However, she had no choice but to accept

Helga’s gesture.

“I’ll consider it,” she said eventually. Working for her? No way! I’m not working for a brand that has a bad

reputation!

Regardless of her opinion, Helga did save her reputation, setting her a little at ease.

After that, Helga turned to Radley and greeted him, “It’s been a while, Mr. Monaghan.”

Radley glanced at her and replied calmly, “Have we met before?”

“When the Monaghan Group established a branch in the Capitael before, I was invited to the

opening ceremony and met you once,” Helga remarked

It was customary to invite many people to the opening ceremony, so it wasn’t surprising that Helga was invited too.

Even though Radley’s face didn’t show it, Freya could tell he was getting impatient.

“Mr. Monaghan, would you like to have a drink?” Helga offered him a glass of wine.

Radley stared at the glass of wine in front of him. Before he could turn down the offer, an ivory hand reached out

for the glass.

Freya took the wine, which Helga offered to Radley, and interjected, “Mr. Monaghan ist injured, so he shouldn’t

drink. I’ll have it on his behalf.”

Helga’s expression slightly changed, but she remained silent.

It was Riley who couldn’t stand it and spoke up. “Know your place, Freya. You have no right to drink the wine on Mr.

Monaghan’s behalf!”

Holding the wine glass, Freya sneered. Since she was the brand director, it was rather normal for an employee to

drink on behalf of their boss.

“She’s the woman I’m pursuing, Miss Freeman. Do you have a problem with it?” Radley glared daggers at Riley.

“You have been picking fights with her on several occasions. It appears that the Freeman family believes that the

Monaghans are easy targets, am I right?”

Radley’s attitude was cold, which instantly silenced everyone around.

His words also surprised Freya. Why did he say that? The netizens are watching the banquet on the

live stream!

Among the crowd. Inken finally had enough fun. Pretending to be a sickly young man, het ordered his bodyguards

to part the onlookers to make room for him.

After he stopped in front of Riley, he lightly cleared his throat as though he was a nobleman. in the fiction. Freya

secretly rolled her eyes at his pretense.

“Miss Freeman, I consider Freya a younger sister of mine. If you disrespect her again…” Inken’s fox eyes slightly

narrowed. “I’ll make sure you get kicked out of Hartterre by tonight.”

Since Hartterre was his family’s territory, Riley remained silent. After all, she wanted to finish the contest.

“Fine, Freya. I’ll see you in the contest!” Then, she turned around and left.

However, Inken signaled the bodyguards, and two men immediately blocked her path.

“Apologize to her,” Inken demanded.

His otherworldly temperament and harmless look convinced the crowd, and they immediately agreed with him.

Riley’s eyes turned red in frustration as tears pricked her eyes. Why should I apologize to Freya? I’ve done nothing

wrong!

“If you don’t apologize, I’ll terminate the cooperation between the Freeman family and the Monaghan family,”

Radley chimed in coldly. “It applies to your family’s construction project of Ruby Garden in Caltun too.”

Inken, who decided to stir things up, feigned to have a dilemma. “In that case, you aren’t allowed to develop the

Ruby Garden in Hartterre too.”

However, Riley knew he wasn’t only referring to Hartterre, but probably Vroria too. After all, the Marshalls were

rooted in Vroria.

If the Freeman family couldn’t develop the Ruby Garden project in either of the three first- tier cities, it would

greatly impact them. She could almost imagine her father’s furious expression if he found out she ruined their

opportunities.

“I. Am. Sorry.” Looking at Radley, she forced the three words out of her mouth.

“Wrong person. You’re supposed to apologize to Freya,” he stated.

Freya’s eyes were literally burning with anger. Radley had burned her bridges by telling the public he was pursuing

her.

Riley turned to Freya unwillingly and spoke with hatred, “I’m sorry, Freya!”

That’s right! Riley started it! Freya remembered.

“Apology not accepted, but I won’t keep you here.” Freya’s voice carried a hint of resentment.

Riley felt her head swim. As the daughter of the Freeman family, it was her first time suffering such humiliation in

her life.

It’s all Freya’s fault! However, she could only leave in frustration with so many people. watching.

As soon as she left the banquet hall, tears began to fall down her cheeks.

Helga hurried after her and comforted her, “Miss Freeman, don’t be sad.”

Gritting her teeth, Riley exclaimed, “B*tch! Freya is a b*tch!”

Helga quickly covered Riley’s mouth and reminded her, “Keep your voice down, Miss Freeman. There are

surveillance cameras around here.”

After calming down a bit, Riley turned to Helga with bloodshot eyes. “Did you follow me out here to make fun of

me?”

“I could never! I have always admired you and thought you were better than Freya. But there’s nothing we can do.

She’s both the woman Radley loves and a family to Inken. We-” Helga trailed off.

Riley took a deep breath and stared at the other woman. Soon, she came up with a plan. “Hey, Leah is your cousin,

isn’t she? She seems to have made friends with Freya recently.”

“What do you mean?”

“Ask Leah to do me a favor. If it works out, the Freeman family will invest in your perfume brand. At that time, the

shareholders of your company will stop picking on you.”

Helga’s eyes flickered at the suggestion. “Let’s discuss it somewhere private.”

Meanwhile, in the banquet hall, Freya coldly glared at the two men in front of her.
