Chapter 213 Don’t Go Too Hard

Freya had always treated Edward as a brother, so receiving his caring message warmed her heart.

After responding, she discussed the plans for their live broadcast on the weekend. She then scrolled through her social media feed.

There, she came across a picture that Melissa had just posted, featuring her and Hannah together.

Freya glanced at it for a while before setting her phone down to take a break.

Over the next two days, Freya lazily rose from bed each morning, and before noon, she headed to the West Geft Joint Department to learn about tenon-mortise structure with Brandon.

As the workday drew to a close, the master and his apprentice left early, each returning to their home.

Around three in the afternoon, Freya found herself leaning over a table, meticulously carving a piece of wood.

Brandon sat nearby at a tea table, leisurely brewing tea.

“You truly are cut out for this line of work. Your mind is quick and you can draw inferences from one another, Brandon said.

Freya finished the final piece of wood in her hands and blew away the wood shavings.

“Doesn’t that just mean you’ve got a good eye for apprentices?” she replied.

“Stop flattering me. You’re pregnant and still, come to learn every day. You’re dedicated,” Brandon remarked, eyeing Freya’s baby bump.

With all the pieces complete, Freya assembled them carefully to create a beautifully crafted mechanical wooden box.

As sunlight streamed through the window, casting a warm glow on her profile, Freya wore a satisfied smile on her porcelain-like face with its ink-black brows and eyes.

When Radley entered the room and witnessed this scene, a subtle jolt ran through his heart.

“Here comes Radley.” Brandon chuckled.

“Freya just made a secret box. Care to try solving it?” he suggested to Radley.

Radley nodded and took a seat next to Freya.

Curious to test her skills, Freya handed the secret box to Radley.

“Master, have you decided on the houses I showed you last time? Did anything catch your eye?” Freya -inquired, turning to Brandon.
