Chapter 227 Just Stop Clinging To Her

Freya gave Felipe nothing more than a calm, "She's my friend."

Felipe scoffed, unconvinced. "So what if she's your friend?"

"Do you really think Kristian and Zander stick around because of money?" Freya shot back with a pointed look. "If they lost everything tomorrow, would you cut ties with them?"

"I'm not that shallow," Felipe replied, his tone defensive.

Freya didn't say anything more. Her gaze stayed locked on his, steady and unreadable.

She'd pushed herself for years-learning new skills, stacking up money-not for status or show, but so if her friends ever needed her, she would offer her help

without relying on her family.

And she had achieved that.

To her, Farrah was someone worth going to the ends of the earth for.

"Friendships that aren't based on personal gain tend to last longer," Felipe remarked. “But you and Farrah come from completely different worlds. That kind of difference always leads to problems."

"The problems you're so worried about will never exist between us," Freya said sharply. "You just need to divorce her and stop clinging to her."

Farrah was everything he wasn't-ambitious, kind-hearted, full of dreams. Felipe didn't deserve her.

"Forget about the baby," Freya added coolly, tossing the divorce papers back at him. "And sort out the asset

division on your own."

If it ever came down to a fifty-fifty split, Farrah would turn it down without hesitation.

She wasn't the type to want her hands in anyone's money, especially not Felipe's. "Wait," Felipe called just as Freya turned to leave.

She paused, turning her head slightly, her expression unreadable.

"It's not me who wants the baby," Felipe explained, voice low. "It's my parents. They found out."

"And?"

"They want the baby. If they don't get what they want, they'll destroy Farrah's career." He wasn't even sure how they found out, but the fact was, he couldn't shield Farrah from them.

Even the idea of dividing the assets equally was his own desperate attempt to soften the blow. If his parents
