“Connor, I’m heading out now!”
Outside the room, Freya shouted while wearing her high heels.
“Okay…”
Connor replied indifferently. He had no intention of going out with Freya.
After hearing Connor’s cold reply, Freya was somewhat disappointed. She did not expect Connor to really choose to stand by and watch.
When Sean Phillips broke the vase, Connor stood there unmoving. Although Freya did not say anything, she was still very uncomfortable deep down. After all, Sean was her father and Connor’s father-in-law.
At this time, everyone was rushing to the restaurant, but Connor still chose to stay in the hotel. Freya was even more disappointed.
Even if everyone knew that Connor wouldn’t be able to solve any problems if he went over, it was all about the intentions he had!
Why was he hiding like a coward now?
“Forget it. It’s my parents’ fault for saying those kinds of things to Connor. It’s understandable that he doesn’t want to go over!”
Freya sighed helplessly and comforted herself as she tried to reason from Connor’s perspective. Then, she turned around and walked into the car, disappearing into the night.
On the other side.
Sean, Sandra, and the others had already arrived at the restaurant. When Qahira saw Sandra, she immediately threw herself into Sandra’s arms and cried loudly.
Just now, many of the onlookers were pointing fingers at Qahira. She had been spoiled since she was young, so of course, she could not accept it.
“Qahira, stop crying. What’s going on?”
Sandra looked at Qahira and asked.
“Mr. Jenkins said that the vase is worth 40 million dollars and wants us to compensate him!”
Qahira replied with a sob.
“40 million?”
When Sean, Sandra, and Laura heard this, they were all stunned. They were extremely shocked. They never thought that the vase would be so expensive! “It actually costs 40 million?”
Sandra also cried out in surprise. Then she turned to look at Shane and said softly, “Shane, aren’t you on good terms with Mr. Jenkins? Hurry up and say something for your uncle!”
Shane stood there helplessly, not knowing what to say.
“Mom, why are you begging Shane? This person is a liar. He doesn’t know Mr. Jenkins. He was just pretending!” Qahira shouted at the top of her lungs.
“Shane doesn’t know Mr. Jenkins? Then… Then what was with the wine today?”
Sandra was also dumbfounded.
“I didn’t give that bottle of wine to you guys, and 1 didn’t give it to this kid either!”
Titus Jenkins looked at Sandra and the others and snorted coldly.
“If it was not for us, then who was it for?”
Sandra asked in confusion.
At that time, they were the only ones in the room. Now, other than Zander Phillips, Ailee West, Freya and Connor, everyone else was here.
Zander and Ailee could be left out of the equation, leaving only Connor and Freya!
“Could it be for Connor?”
Sandra exclaimed again. She knew that Freya and Titus had nothing to do with each other.
When Titus heard Sandra’s words, he was stunned for a moment. He secretly knocked himself on the head for talking too much just now and almost exposed Connor’s identity, so he changed the topic and said, “It doesn’t matter who the wine was for. You should think about how you’re going to compensate me!” “Mr. Jenkins, isn’t 40 million a little too much? We didn’t mean to break your vase. Can you let us pay less?”
Sean couldn’t afford that much at the moment, so he hesitated for a moment before taking a step forward and saying to Titus.
“No, this vase of mine is worth 40 million dollars. 1 can’t take a cent less!”
Titus refused without hesitation.
“Mr. Jenkins, you…”
Sean opened his mouth to speak.
However, at that moment, a Mercedes-Benz stopped beside Sean.
Bang!
The car door opened, and Freya stepped out of the car in her high heels. She then walked directly toward Titus.
When Titus saw Freya, his expression changed. He knew about the relationship between Freya and Connor. She was Mr. McDonald’s fiancee!
“Mr. Jenkins, the person who broke the vase was my father. We will definitely compensate you for the vase, but 40 million is too much. Can you lower the price a little? I’m also a business partner with Mr. Morgan. 1 heard that you have a good relationship with him.”
Freya had just contacted Thomas in the car to see if she could use her connection with him to deal with this matter.
After hearing Freya’s words, Titus started to feel conflicted.
Firstly, Titus knew about the relationship between Connor and Freya. Under normal circumstances, Titus would not make things difficult for Sean in order to please Freya. He would not even take a single cent from 100 million, let alone 40 million.
However, Connor reminded him that he could not expose his identity no matter what. If Titus really were to let them off, then others would definitely suspect that something was wrong.
Titus was at a loss as to how to deal with this matter.
Ring! Ring!
At this moment, Titus’s phone suddenly rang.
Titus glanced at the name on the screen and quickly picked up the phone.
Freya turned to Sean and said, “Dad, don’t worry. I’ve already told Mr. Morgan. He’ll come and help us!”
“Sigh…”
Sean sighed helplessly. He didn’t know what to say. He didn’t expect the vase to be so expensive.
Sandra, Qahira, Shane and the others were also hiding in a corner, afraid of being implicated in this matter.
A moment later, Titus ended his call and returned. He said softly, ‘Miss Freya, I just spoke to Mr. Morgan on the phone. On the account that you and Mr.
Morgan are friends, you can compensate me 20 million for this vase. We can forget about the remaining 20 million!”
When everyone heard Titus’s words, they were all stunned. They were extremely shocked.
They had never thought that Freya would be so influential that she could save 20 million dollars with just one sentence!
However, Freya and Sean did not feel that they were lucky.. They could not even fork out 20 million!
