Chapter 218 I’ll Carry You Back

Radley looked at Freya and his gaze fell on her abdomen, as though he understood the internal struggle she was facing.

“In a few days, we’ll draft a contract. I’ll have Connor book a plane ticket for you, and then I’ll sign the

contract.”

Freya looked up at him with a hint of confusion as she frowned. It seems like this man can see through my thoughts.

“Thank you,” Freya said softly.

A momentary pause followed, then a deep glimmer gleamed in his eyes as he turned his head to look at Freya. From his angle, he could only see her side profile which was illuminated by the golden light of the sunset, adorned with eyes that held a crystal clarity.

“You don’t have to thank me, ever,” Radley said.

She smiled and remained silent.

The two of them discussed the specific details of the contract they were about to sign, and without realizing it, they had already walked quite a distance up the mountain. When Freya snapped out of her thoughts, she could already see the villa in the distance.

Exhausted from the hike, she settled onto a large rock beside the path and began massaging her legs with flagging energy.

“I’ll call Brisa to come pick us up. This mountain road is wide enough for a car to pass through.” Radley glanced at the villa in the distance.

He frowned.

The time spent with her must have been remarkably enjoyable, for we have inadvertently journeyed quite a distance. He then looked worriedly at Freya’s belly. It would definitely be inconvenient to walk back.

“I’ll carry you back,” Radley said.

Freya’s temples were slightly sweaty. “No, it’s too far.”

Even those who were usually professional athletes might not be able to walk that far, let alone Radley. However, he frowned once again and looked at the sky. Though the sunset looks beautiful at the moment, it’s already getting dark.
