NovelEnglishChapter 150 On the surface, Freya didn't call Johanna out on her true intentions. Instead, she played along, saying, "Well then, I owe you one, Johanna." "There's no need for thanks, darling. Just keep on the straight and narrow, and with your looks, why wouldn't Mr. Sutton be smitten?" Johanna's voice softened. "When you make it big, don't forget all the good I've done for you." "I'll never forget the good you've done for me, Johanna," Freya responded, her smile sending a chill down Johanna's spine. The words Johanna intended to say got stuck in her throat.

Face darkening, Leland snapped, "Freya! I'm talking to you. Did you hear me?" "Freya, that's too much. Leland is talking to you. How can you ignore him like this?" Johanna feigned reprimand. Freya retorted, "Johanna, I've said it before. It is my house. Whether I cback or not isn't up for discussion." "Freya, how can you speak to my mom that way?" Leland's temper flared instantly. He stepped forward, intent on teaching Freya a lesson only to be stopped by her cold, words, "The deed to this house is in my hands, and your name's not on it. Believe me. I can have your out of here with just one word." "You!" Leland was stopped in his tracks by Freya's words.
Seeing Freya truly upset, Johanna quickly held Leland back, urging, "What's gotten into you, child? Apologize to Freya instantly!" When you're under someone else's roof, you follow their rules.
Johanna had always used her seniority to push Freya around because she was an easy target, constantly testing her limits. But Freya was no longer the pushover she once was. If she threatened them with eviction, they'd have no choice but to leave! Johanna couldn't lose her cool without the Dawson family's fortune securely in her grasp.
Freya had pinpointed Johanna's vulnerability. As long as the Dawson family's assets weren't in Johanna's hands, Johanna had to keep a low profile, unable to afford any confrontation with Freya.

Freya wasn't in a hurry, letting the silence linger for a few seconds. Seeing her son wasn't catching on, Johanna gave Leland a sharp pat on the shoulder. "Did you hear me? Apologize to Freya, now!" "Sorry!" Leland's apology was filled with resentment and dissatisfaction, his voice heavy with grudges.
