When Connor saw Freya walking towards him, he subconsciously put away his phone. Then, he asked Freya awkwardly, “Freya, why are you here?”

“Connor, are you alright? Don’t take what my grandfather said to heart. He didn’t mean to target you!” Freya was worried that Connor would be angered and leave, so she comforted him gently.

“So that’s why!”

When Connor heard Freya’s words, he heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, he did not take Grandpa John’s words to heart at all. He had been worried that Freya overheard what he had said to Titus.

Freya blinked her big, watery eyes and asked with a puzzled expression, “Why else would I be here?”

“No, it’s nothing.” Connor quickly shook his head and hung up the call with Titus.

Freya thought for a moment and felt that she couldn’t let Connor leave just like that. “Connor, if you have nothing else to do, accompany me somewhere. In any case, the two of us have nothing to do at the birthday banquet now, so why don’t we take this opportunity to have some fun…”

She was prepared to wait for Grandpa John to completely calm down before bringing Connor over to explain himself.

“Don’t you have to go back to attend the birthday banquet?” Connor asked Freya with a puzzled expression.

“Why should I go back? Moreover, my grandfather said that if I dare to come out to look for you, then 1 don’t have to go back.” Freya pretended to be relaxed as she replied. Then, she turned her head to size up Connor and asked softly, “Connor, tell me the truth. Is the person who came to celebrate my grandfather’s birthday really Joshua Qualls?”

“Why are you asking me this? Don’t tell me you suspect me too?” Connor said to Freya with a serious expression.

“Connor, please don’t misunderstand. 1 don’t mean to doubt you. I’m just curious how you know someone like Joshua Qualls. Besides, why would a big boss like Joshua give my grandfather such a gift?” Freya asked in confusion.

“I know Joshua because of Thomas Morgan. Actually, Thomas Morgan is the real Chairman of Eon Investment Group, but for some reason didn’t admit this to the outside world. That said, I’m not very sure why Joshua gave your grandfather that kind of gift!” Connor explained casually.

“So that’s how it is!” Freya nodded lightly. Although she was still a little confused, she did not ask any more questions.

Connor looked at Freya and continued, “If you don’t believe me, when you return to Porthampton, you can go to Eon Investment Group and ask around. Then you’ll know whether I’m lying to you or not!”

“Of course I believe you. However, it’s useless if I believe you. My grandfather is the one that has to believe you…” Freya sighed softly, then smiled and said, “Alright, let’s not talk about this matter anymore. Although you have some misunderstandings with my grandfather now, 1 think that they will be cleared up sooner or later…”

“It’s good that they can be cleared up!” Connor nodded and did not say anything else. He did not care about what others thought of him. As long as Freya did not misunderstand him, it was fine.

Freya suddenly recalled what happened last night and asked Connor with a frown, “Also, my grandfather wanted to keep you by his side yesterday. Why didn’t you agree?”

After hearing this, Connor smiled faintly and said softly, “I don’t want everyone in your family to look down on me and think that 1 relied on your Phillips family to succeed. 1 hope that I can marry you through my own hard work and not rely on your grandfather’s help to be qualified to marry you!”

“I didn’t expect you to have such a backbone!” Freya’s mood instantly improved after hearing Connor’s explanation.

“There are some things that I don’t show, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t have them!” Connor said in an abnormally domineering tone.

Freya looked at Connor, stunned. At this moment, she felt that he might not be as simple as she thought. She could feel it from his performance at Collective Stroke—after all, how could a poor delivery student be so proficient in the piano and guitar?

However, Freya wasn’t in the mood to discuss this with Connor. She said softly, “Connor, I’ll bring you to the amusement park near the estate. 1 often went there to play when I was young. Today, the two of us can go and take a look…” “Alright!”

Connor nodded lightly and followed Freya to the parking lot.

Meanwhile, in the restaurant.

Rubin finally got his wish and got rid of Freya and Connor. Jake started to calm down. After all, Connor’s incident was too embarrassing. He did not even have the face to speak now.

After Connor and Freya left, the anger in John’s heart seemed to have dissipated a little. He apologized to the guests present and returned to his seat.

Connor’s incident had a huge impact on everyone. The Phillips family felt embarrassed at this moment, and the guests present also started whispering at the dining table.

The birthday banquet that was originally a happy one had actually turned into such a mess in the end. No one would feel comfortable at all.

“Sean, as your big brother, I’m talking to you. What’s so good about that Connor? Why did you marry Freya to someone like him? Look at how angry he made our dad today. What’s going on?” Walter lectured Sean.

Although Sean was unwilling to admit it, no matter what, Connor was still his son-in-law. Connor had done something wrong, and Sean was naturally responsible for it. Therefore, Sean could only nod at whatever Walter.

“I don’t want Freya to marry him either, but she just won’t listen to me. What can I do?” Sean said helplessly to Walter.

“If you really don’t want Freya to marry Connor, isn’t that simple?”

Walter replied in a low voice and was about to elaborate when suddenly, the receptionist at the entrance of the restaurant suddenly shouted, “The president of Gloradia’s Travio Corporation, President Tristan Lawson is here!”

“Travio Corporation?”

“It can’t be. Why is President Lawson of the Travio Corporation here?”

When everyone heard Tristan Lawson’s name, they were instantly in an uproar. Their faces were filled with shock.

The name of Tristan Lawson was like thunder to everyone present. As long as they had a bit of influence, they had basically heard of his name.

Tristan Lawson’s status in Gloradia was comparable to Thomas Morgan’s in Porthampton. Moreover, it was said that he was one of the top ten richest people in Davenport. Such a big shot coming to a small place like the Phillips family estate was simply unbelievable to the customers in the restaurant..
