She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 55

Chapter 55 Are You Pregnant

It was strange. Everyone in Alerith saw Freya as invincible-a force to be reckoned with. Yet Farrah insisted she

needed protection, claiming Freya had a terrible sense of direction and vowing to protect her.

Sometimes, Freya wondered when she'd given Farrah the impression she was someone who needed

safeguarding.

With those thoughts swirling in her mind, she followed Farrah into the private

room.

Farrah tugged her down into a seat, and once they'd ordered, she leaned in. "Why did you plan to leave Jeucwell

so suddenly? Is your husband relocating?"

She knew about Freya's marriage.

But neither spoke the naloud. Farrah never asked, and Freya never volunteered it.

When two women met, conversation flowed easily-food, drinks, gossip, work, fashion, beauty. Relationships

rarely cup unless something major happened.

Besides, Freya hardly ever attended Kristian's gatherings. Since they'd never announced their marriage, few

even knew.

"No," Freya said plainly. "We're getting divorced."

Farrah blinked, certain she'd misheard.

Then her eyes widened.

Shock slammed into her-like she'd never once imagined Freya's marriage ending

this way. "You're joking, right? | remember you said he treated you well!"

"The papers are filed." Freya's voice stayed even. "Next Tuesday, the court finalizes it."

"Givea second." Farrah floundered, struggling to process it.

Divorce? She'd never seen this coming.

In her view, Freya was incredible-how could anyone walk away from her?

After a steadying breath, Farrah ventured, "Did you initiate it... or did he?" "He did."

"Why?" Curiosity sharpened Farrah's tone.

Freya sidestepped the truth. "We weren't right for each other."

She knew Farrah too well.

If Farrah learned Kristian was leaving her for another woman, she'd explode.

And Freya didn't want to worry her too much.

"His loss." Farrah squeezed her hand, forcing cheer. "You'll find someone better- someone hotter, kinder. Let him

see how many people adore you. You don't need him."

Freya hummed in agreement.

They talked a while longer before their food arrived.

Mid-bite, Freya spotted it—a faint kiss mark on Farrah's neck, previously hidden under her scarf.

"Farrah."

"Hm?" Farrah glanced up from her phone.

Freya tilted her head. "Are you seeing someone?"

"As if!" Farrah laughed.

Freya pointed. "Then what's that?"

Farrah stiffened-just for a second.

Freya didn't miss it.

"I'm married, actually." Farrah shrugged, tone breezy as ever. "Courtesy of my nominal husband."

Now it was Freya's turn to be stunned.

"Since when? You never told me."

"Merely a marriage of convenience." Farrah waved a hand, her smile a little too quick. "Once his ex comes

crawling back, we're done. Didn't mention it because he doesn't matter."

Freya's brows shot up.

His ex?

"Then why marry you..." She hesitated, searching for words.

"Grown-up needs." Farrah's laugh rang bright-too bright. "Enough about that. Where are we shopping after this?

It's been forever."

She didn't mention the force behind that mark.

Last night, her so-called husband had chreeking of another woman's perfume, lips stained with foreign

rouge. She'd fought, but men were stronger. In the end, she'd surrendered.

Luckily, he'd stormed off before things went further. Otherwise, she feared what might've happened to the life

growing inside her.

"If you need anything, just say the word. I'm here for you," Freya offered simply, her assurance hanging in the

air between them.

"Seeing you're okay bringssuch relief," Farrah replied with Case, her striking eyes crinkling at the corners as

her smile bloomed. "Should you face any difficulties after the divorce, don't hesitate. I'll ensure you're well taken

care of." Freya laughed softly. "Ironically, | should be the one making that promise to you."

Confusion flickered across Farrah's face.

"| possess considerable wealth," Freya clarified.

"How considerable?"

"1.4 billion."

Farrah fell silent, utterly stunned.

Questions bubbled beneath her skin, her emotions plainly visible in every feature. "Could you repeat that

amount?"

"1.4 billion," Freya stated again, placing her trust in Farrah. "He transferred it towhen we initiated divorce

proceedings."

Farrah sat speechless.

1.4 billion? How many zeros followed that figure? She realized she couldn't accumulate such wealth even with a

lifetin the entertainment industry.

"Perhaps he feels guilt over his affair?" Farrah speculated, excitement edging into her voice. "Or did you catch

him in scompromising situation?"

This was 1.4 billion, not million. Certainly not loose change.

She couldn't fathom why a man would relinquish such a fortune unless genuine

love remained.

Freya hesitated, words failing her.

She pinched the bridge of her nose in contemplation.

Farrah's disarming nature had a way of lowering everyone's defenses.

Freya had mentioned the money to prevent Farrah from worrying excessively, but

had overlooked explaining the underlying cause.

"Is he truly having an affair?" Farrah's eyes widened tically.

Freya contemplated briefly before answering, "The situation mirrors your own."

"His ex?"

"Yes."

"Holy shit!" Farrah exclaimed, indignation rising visibly within her. "I always believed he treated you well-

someone worthy of sharing your life. Yet he proves

to be nothing but another contemptible disappointment."

Freya remained silent. She dared not speak. Farrah's emotions blazed too intensely to manage

"He spent 1.4 billion merely to extricate himself from your marriage?" Farrah burst out, righteous anger flaring in

her eyes. "Someone like him deserves to leave empty-handeff. He never mentioned another woman in his heart

when he married you, did he?"

Farrah sprang to her feet. "Absolutely not!"

Freya stared in bewilderment.

Before she could react, Farrah seized her hand firmly. "Taketo confront him. | must speak my mind! How dare

he mistreat my dearest friend? Once | achieve fame, I'll expose his despicable behavior and let justice seeking

inteusers tear his reputation to shreds."

"That won't be necessary." Freya grasped her wrist gently, adding, "We're about to..." Her words trailed off

She hadn't completed her thought about receiving the divorce decree.

The abrupt pause hung heavily.

Farrah noticed the shift in her expression and immediately sat down, concern

washing over her, "What's wrong?"

Freya took her hand and began checking her pulse with unprecedented seriousness.

Farrah watched, perplexed by this sudden medical interest.

"Are you pregnant?" Freya inquired cautiously, her gaze intensely focused.
