Chapter 428:

Theo was having breakfast in his office and catching up on messages he hadn’t answered from the night before.

As he was doing this, a call from Freda came through, prompting a flicker of disgust across his face. Rather than hanging up, he let the phone ring until it stopped on its own.

Zandra had been eager to forge a union with the Jimenez family through her son’s marriage, seeking their resources and connections. Thus, Theo couldn’t sever ties with Freda entirely.

After responding to his messages, he switched to a news app and spotted the top story about the advanced contestants at yesterday’s Champions Cup selection competition.
