My Ex-wife's Hidden Personalities

Chapter 174 Are You Planning to Elope?

“I’m busy with company matters Matthew smiled and reached out to pat Melissa’s head

He then glanced at Radley with a cold, sharp gaze out of the corner of his eye

Since Freya had left, Radley took Chris to the banquet hall to attend Sarah’s birthday banquet at noon There was

also another banquet that evening

But they excused themselves early.

Chris followed closely behind Radley and asked curiously, “Why did you leave so suddenly? I heard that the main

banquet would be at noon, and there would be a party at night. Maybe Freya might attend the party tonight.”

Radley’s eyes remained indifferent. “Didn’t we already wish Old Mrs. Marshall on her birthday?”

“But you didn’t come here just to congratulate Old Mrs. Marshall, did you? You came to see Freya. She didn’t

appear at noon, so maybe she will—”

Before Chris finished speaking, he saw a faint smile in Radley’s eyes.

“Why aren’t you in a hurry? Let me tell you, Matthew is now inside the Marshall Residence, and I can see that the

Marshalls like him a lot. Maybe they have already considered him Freya’s boyfriend.”

“Freya won’t be with him,” Radley remarked.

“How do you know that?”

“Because she’s no longer in the Marshall Residence.”

“What?”

That answer shocked Chris.

Following that, Connor drove away. Once the two cars left the Marshall Residence, they circled around to the back

entrance.

Although the Marshall Residence was bustling at the moment, everything was quiet at the back entrance.

In the distance, Radley saw a familiar figure.

Chris was beside him and laughed once he noticed the figure too. “Are you planning to clope?”

Freya was just about to get in the car when she heard that, and so she glared at the other.

After that, she turned to look at Radley. “Did you prepare the things I asked?”

Radley smiled. “They’re almost ready.”

“Good.” Freya’s smile carried a hint of sternness. “Let’s go and see the land my uncle bought!”

Vroria was surrounded by mountains and was known as a city suitable for tourism and living. Radley’s car quickly

arrived at the edge of the Marshall’s newly bought land.

Several people were setting up a checkpoint by the main road near the edge

Once they arrived, Freya and Radley got out of the car and got into another off-road vehicle.

In the meantime, the puzzled Chris wanted to follow them

But Radley turned to look at him. “You should head home

“Where are you going? Chris asked curiously

However, Radley and Freya had already gotten into the off-road vehicle, and the car’s engine was quickly turned

on.

Are these two leaving me behind just like that?

Chris’ eyes widened in shock.

In the car beside him, Connor offered, “Mr. Holland, let me send you back.”

Chris gritted his teeth. “How could he abandon me for a woman?”

Radley and Freya stayed in the car for a long time and didn’t return until the sun was about to rise

After sending Freya back to the Marshall Residence’s back entrance, they chatted in front of the gate for a while

before Freya returned inside.

Since Sarah’s birthday banquet was a big event in Vroria, almost all the big shots in the city had attended the event.

Therefore, the news of Ernie causing trouble at Marshall Residence gradually spread.

Some people secretly cursed him for lacking manners, while others openly mocked him for being heartless and

ungrateful.

But the fact that the Porter Group had scammed the Marshall Enterprise of 30 billion meant that the Porter Group

was on the rise. So more people were flattering Ernie than criticizing him.

The atmosphere in Marshall Residence had gotten worse these past few days.

Freya could feel the exhaustion hidden behind her uncle’s smile, as well as her aunt’s.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Late at night, at the Porter Residence.

In the living room, Ernie’s face was grim as he stared at the man in front of him.

“How is that possible?”

“How is it impossible?” The man’s voice was hoarse. “Mr. Porter, you also saw it at Old Mrs. Marshall’s birthday

banquet, didn’t you? Freya secretly left with Radley to visit that land!”

Ernie’s face turned pale.

“Did they really find that?”

Yes, the value of that land will be at least ten times higher! The man said, “Mr. Porter, I’m just responsible for

delivering the message. It’s up to you how you’re going to proceed.”

Ernie gritted his teeth. Since the time of his father, their family had been relying on the Marshall’s aid to

survive

From a young age, his father had taught him to be friends with Noah and win Sylvia Marshall’s favor.

But he was tired of living in the shadow of others!

Noah was a loser. That man was less scheming than he was and was just lucky to have been born into the Marshall

family!!

With a dark expression, he said, “Let me think about it

The man got up and left.

The following day.

There was suddenly a rumor spreading in Vroria.

The Kaufmann Group and the Monaghan Group had jointly purchased the land Marshall Enterprise had bought from

the Porter Group.

The Holland and Porter Groups also wanted to get a share but were unsuccessful.

Everyone was quite shocked by the news.

“That land is already a guaranteed loss, are the Kaufmann Group and the Monaghan Group crazy?”

Even if the Kaufmanns and the Marshalls are in-laws, it is still a huge sum of money. Even if they only pay half of it,

it would still be 15 billion!”

There’s no 15 billion. They paid 40 billion to the Marshalls for that land!’

Amidst the discussions, Ernie finally understood the situation.

The useless Holland Group and Parker Group wanted to get involved but were kicked out by the Kaufmann Group

and the Monaghan Group.

What that man said was true.

The largest gold mine in the country might be under that piece of land.

“The Kaufmann Group is so cunning, they even deceived their own relatives.” Ernie sat in the living room with a

gloomy face. “Even that brat, Freya, has the nerve to mock me.”

Beside him, his wife sat on the sofa, her eyes filled with wisdom. “The Monaghan Group and the Kaufmann Group

have been competitors in Caltun for many years. Although they are rivals, it’s because of this relationship that the

other groups in Caltun have no chance to rise. So their cooperation might be real this time.”

“I know!” Ernie raised his voice to say and gritted his teeth. “Radley would never do anything charitable.”

That meant the gold mine was real.

Such a big gift had fallen into their laps. Ernie felt his head spin at the thought that the land used to be

theirs.

He had already sold that land to the Marshalls.

“Even if the Marshalls want to sell it, they would definitely sell it to their own people.” Ernie’s voice trembled as he

knew he and the Marshalls had completely fallen out.

At this moment, he also realized why Freya said the Marshalls would rise again.

That woman had found out the true value of that land long ago.

Beside him, his wife, Reeva Jordan, stood up with glistening eyes. “Honey, that might not be the case

“What do you mean?”

A mysterious and cunning smile appeared on Reeva’s face. “The Marshalls might not know the value of that land

yet. Noah has always been honest and kind-hearted. How could he bear to let his relatives help him bear the

burden?”

Ernie was dumbfounded, but after thinking it through, he immediately burst into laughter. “You’re right. Even I

didn’t expect there would be a mine below that land, so the brainless Noah wouldn’t have thought about it either.

Prepare gifts and a contract. I’ll go to the Marshall Residence tomorrow and apologize to them.”
