Chapter 39 Why Would She Like You?

After entering the residential estate of the Hood Residence, Freya introduced Edward while chatting with Isabella.

“This is my assistant, Edward Fraser, a talented student from Evergreen University,” Freya introduced with a smile.

Isabella looked at him with shining eyes. “What a handsome young man.”

Edward stood obediently next to Freya and greeted, “Hello, Miss Parker.”

“Don’t call me Miss Parker. I prefer you call me Isabella. Isabella stared at Edward and tilted her head in thought. “I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before.”

Edward blushed.

He had once been an escort, and Isabella was one of his clients.

Fortunately, Isabella had drunk heavily that day and was seated next to other escorts. Therefore, she didn’t have a clear impression of him.

Freya changed the topic. “You’ve been taking care of my brother lately. I want to thank you, but I’ve been -busy with the Kaufmann Group. I’ll treat you to a meal when I’m free.”

At that, Isabella immediately declined, saying, “It’s okay. I take care of Braxton at night and usually catch. up on sleep during the day, so I don’t have free time either.”

Freya was puzzled. “Brax doesn’t need to be taken care of all night. He just broke his leg, so you should get enough sleep at night.”

Hearing that, Isabella coughed lightly and avoided her gaze. “Where is Matthew? He is the star of the show today.”

Not long after, Matthew arrived.

“Hello, Kittie, Miss Parker. Matthew looked dashing in a dark blue suit and drew the attention of many girls at the event.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Matthew cleverly stood between Edward and Freya.

“Mr. Matthew, you have always been a magnet for women. Since you are about to become the president of the Hood Group, I’m sure you will attract even more attention,” Isabella teased.

Edward stood by silently as he stared at the man in front of him. He must be doing it on purpose! He’s probably interested in Frea too!

Matthew raised his eyebrow as his lips curved slightly. “Tve already set my heart on someone. I’m only -interested in one person now,”

With that, his gaze fell on Freya beside him.

Freya held a glass of wine and gently shook it. “Yeah, right. One person.”
