Chapter 1040
Chapter 1040 Embarrass Herself
Hayden accompanied Freya and lived in this small village for a week.
During the day, he did farm work with Duncan, and at night, he would have a romantic night with Freya.
This kind of life was relaxing, making him feel unprecedented happiness.
However, there were continuous conflicts between the Gollust and Chambers families.
Hayden had already told his family that he would call off his engagement with Maura. But neither his
family nor the Chambers family could accept it.
Maura directly refused him.
She said, "At the beginning, Hayden pestered me to be engaged to him. Now, he doesn't want me and
distances himself from me. He did these things at will. There is no such good thing in the world!"
Maura was the apple of the eye in the Chambers family. She was always the one to dump her
boyfriends. So she couldn't accept being dumped.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce she liked something, she would never give it up to others.
Including her boyfriend!
"Call the Gollust family and tell them I won't agree to call off the engagement!" Maura asked her father
to put pressure on the Gollust family, making Hayden have to attend her birthday party on her birthday.
The Gollust family had notified Hayden, but Hayden refused. "I won't go there. Anyway, I'll call off the
engagement, so I won't waste time acting with her anymore."
After saying this, he hung up the phone.
But the Gollust family didn't give up. They made many phone calls daily to urge Hayden, hoping he
would change his mind.
Maura didn't receive any reply from the Gollust family, so she thought Hayden had agreed to attend her
birthday party.
Today was the day of Maura's birthday party.
The Chambers family invited all the celebrities of the city to the party and planned to announce the
wedding date of Hayden and Maura according to Maura's request.
Maura decided to announce her marriage to Hayden first, setting the wedding date and making it
public.
Even if the Gollust family agreed to Hayden's decision, they had to consider a series of adverse effects
caused by breaking a pledge of marriage after she announced the wedding date.
For example, it would cause the falling stock price of the Gollust Group and offend the Chambers
family and even its business partners.
The Gollust family was a typical merchant family. They would give her a satisfactory response after
weighing the pros and cons.
To achieve this goal, Maura even changed the birthday cake into an engagement cake, which was
taller than a person's.
And the banquet hall was decorated like a wedding site.
When the guests came and saw this hall, they guessed that the Chambers family would have

Maura accepted everyone's congratulations with a gentle smile and waited for Hayden's arrival.
But Hayden didn't show up until halfway through the party.
Maura was worried that there would only be a joke if Hayden didn't show up, so she quickly went to
Brian and asked him to call Hayden back as soon as possible.
But Brian was also helpless. "No matter how much I persuaded him, he refused to come here."
In the past, Brian could use the family property to pressure Hayden to make him come back obediently.
But since Hayden gave up everything about the Gollust family, he ignored his family's persuasion.
"Why don't you tell him that if he doesn't return, you will freeze his credit card and take back the house
and car that were given to him?"
Brian thought it was a good idea, so he immediately asked the secretary to call Hayden.
But Hayden was not threatened. After the secretary told him about this, he refused to attend Maura's
birthday party.
Brian looked at Maura with a guilty face. Maura knew that her scheming arrangement would embarrass
her.
