Chapter 38 Hearing Freya speak this way now, Matteo was surprised. Still, he didn't dwell on it - after all, it was a small matter, not worth obsessing over. "Understood." With that, he hung up. This time, Isabella knew who was on the other end of her father's call. "Was that Mom?" "Mm." "So Mom will be joining us at great-grandmother's?" "Mm." Upon hearing this, Isabella's brows furrowed reflexively before she could say anything. It wasn't that she didn't want to see her mother. Nor was it that she didn't miss her mother. In fact, not only had it been a long time since she'd seen her mother, but her mother had also gone unprecedented more than half a month without contacting her. Now, thinking about her mother, she actually felt somewhat nostalgic. But then she realized that if Mom could join them at the family estate tonight, it meant she would be returning from her business trip today - after returning to the country, she had only learned about her mother's business trip the morning after she woke up. When she found out her mother wasn't home, she had been especially happy. She wanted to spend more time with Aunt Raven during these days while her mother was away on business. After all, once her mother returned from the trip, she wouldn't be able to see Aunt Raven often anymore. So, she had been hoping her mother would come home later rather than sooner. Unexpectedly, her mother was returning after just two days. Now that her mother was back, she definitely wouldn't agree to let Aunt Raven take her to school tomorrow. As for Aunt Raven's racing competition tomorrow night, if her mother found out about it, she definitely wouldn't let her go watch. Thinking of this, her mood immediately soured. Moreover, she had already asked Aunt Raven to take her to school tomorrow morning, and Aunt Raven had already agreed. What should she do now? Isabella wilted completely, "Dad..." Matteo looked over, "What is it?" Although she could ask her dad to help convince mom about letting Aunt Raven take her to school, mom might end up arguing with dad when she heard about it... This was so annoying! Isabella lost her appetite for breakfast. However, she could compromise on tomorrow's school drop-off and let her mom take her. But as for Aunt Raven's racing competition tomorrow night, she was determined to go no matter what. With this in mind, she said to Matteo in a coaxing tone, "Well, you promised to let me go watch Aunt Raven's competition with you tomorrow night, but if Mom finds out, she definitely won't let me go, so we can't let Mom know about this. If Mom asks tomorrow, Dad, can you help cover for me?" suauare for a Love That Won't Land 13.3% Chapter 38 "Got it." Only after getting Matteo's assurance did Isabella's mood improve slightly. A while later, Matteo finished breakfast and left. When Freya arrived at the company today, she didn't run into Matteo. At noon, Matteo's grandmother called and asked her to join her for lunch at "Warris Garden." "Harris Garden" was located near the Matteo Group building, just a few minutes walk from where Freya worked. As soon as Freya left the company and reached the corner of "Harris Garden's entrance, she heard someone say. "Matteo, if it weren't for your help just now, I might not have secured this contract even with all my efforts. Thank you so much for this." That familiar voice- Freya stopped in her tracks immediately. Peering around slightly, she saw the profile of her biological father, Logan Brown, right before her eyes. At this moment, Matteo responded, "You're too kind, Uncle." Freya's hands slowly clenched into fists. She could hear that Matteo's tone was gentler than usual.
