She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 219 Agreeing To

The Divorce

The moment Freya stepped into view, all eyes instinctively shifted to her.

By the window, Farrah stood still, a breath of relief catching in her chest and softening the weight that had anchored her heart. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears. "Freya!"

Two bodyguards greeted Freya in unison.

Freya casually tossed them her car keys.

Then, turning her gaze to Felipe, she asked coolly, "Are you leaving on your own, or will I have to make you?"

She put a deliberate edge on the word "make", making sure he caught the warning behind it.

Felipe understood-this wasn't a suggestion. It was a threat.

For a brief moment, he toyed with the idea of pushing back, but deep down, he knew that if things escalated, Freya wouldn't waste time with his guards. She'd come straight for him. And he didn't stand a chance!

Right then, he bitterly regretted turning down Kristian's offer to train him in hand- to-hand combat. If only he had-maybe he'd have a shot against her!

"Do you always have to be this much of a headache?" He was clearly annoyed with her interference. "This is between me and Farrah. Do you really have to butt in?"

"She's my friend," Freya said sharply, no explanation needed.

She wasn't the type to stick her nose in other people's drama. But Farrah mattered to her, and she wasn't about to just sit back while Felipe pulled his usual stunts. It was only natural-women stood up for each other.

"If I were you, I'd go find the best damn lawyer money can buy." Freya's tone dripped with mockery. "Might help you lose a little less embarrassingly in court."

Felipe seethed, jaw tight, but had no outlet for his frustration.

He couldn't rival her fighting skill, her status, or the way she commanded the

room.

"I just wanted to talk things over with Farrah." He tried to sound reasonable. "I know I messed up before, and

I came to make it right."

"Make it right?" Freya repeated with a hint of a scoff.

He missed the sarcasm entirely. "Yes."
