Chapter 341 I Can’t Forget
Freya narrowed her eyes and turned to look at Radley.
Radley politely declined. “Master, please answer her question first. I can eat later.”

Brandon was angry. “Radley, you’ve learned from me for a few days and even called me ‘Master. Yet, you won’t
stand up for me?”
Freya didn’t dwell on the matter for too long. She knew Brandon was in a difficult position.
After a short tea break, Freya stood up and said, “I’ll go help Mrs. Lane prepare the meal.”
As she got up, Radley followed suit. “I’ll help too.”
Freya questioned him, “Do you know how to cook?”
Radley’s expression remained composed as he replied, “I can help with the preparations.”
His tone carried a formality that resembled the signing of a formal document.
Freya didn’t say anything more and headed to the kitchen. The kitchen was situated in another part of the
courtyard. Radley followed closely behind. However, Trisha was quick to intervene.
“Why are you both coming to the kitchen? There’s a strong smell of cooking here. You’ll feel uncomfortable.”
Freya smelled the strong aroma of food in the air and glanced at Radley.
For some, it was a mouthwatering scent, but for the clean freaks, it felt as if the smell was infiltrating their body.
It made them feel uncomfortable all over.
Radley, however, remained unperturbed. “Mrs. Lane, is there anything we can assist with? We’re here to help
Trisha couldn’t drive the two away, so she assigned them the easiest task. She gave them a basket of green
vegetables to be picked.
“You can help pick these vegetables. Do it in the living room. It’s too smelly here.” Trisha was aware of Radley’s
cleanliness issues.
Freya sneered, “No need, Mrs. Lane. We’ll just pick them here. It’s warm in the kitchen”
Both of them took seats on small stools, facing a low table, and began picking the vegetables.
Occasionally, Freya would catch the aroma of Mrs. Lane’s buffalo wings in the air. “Mrs. Lane’s buffalo wings must

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Radley, who was holding two greens in his hand.
Hle meticulously picked them one by one, even carefully flattening any folded leaves.
Freya was left speechless.

At this rate, it would probably take them until evening to finish picking this basket of vegetables!
She reached out and decisively took the vegetables from Radley’s hand. “Pick them a bit faster at this rate. We’ll
have to wash them again later.”
Radley lowered his gaze and looked at Freya. “Alright.”
Freya was skilled in cooking. She used to always cook for him in the past, but he had never tasted her food.
Even with Freya’s guidance, it took them more than twenty minutes to finish picking the basket of vegetables. Most
of the time, Freya was pointing out Radley’s mistakes.
Those poor vegetables, even if they had the slightest flaw, would end up in the trash when they reached. Radley’s
hands.
Freya rubbed her forehead, feeling drained. Finally, they had finished picking the vegetables. She felt she was more
exhausted than Radley.
“Why don’t you return to the living room and enjoy some tea with Master?” she suggested.
Radley lowered his gaze and looked at Freya’s resigned and annoyed face, then chuckled softly.
“It’s okay, I’ll stay with you.”
Freya’s heart skipped a beat. “There’s not much work left here. You can go back.”
Trisha, who was cooking, turned her head and immediately took out a bag of garlic from the cabinet.
“Frey, help me peel these garlic cloves with Radley.”
Freya looked at the dozens of garlic cloves, feeling speechless. Mrs. Lane, you’re being too obvious!
The two of them sat back at the table and started peeling the garlic. This time, Freya no longer had to teach Radley.
They peeled the garlic cloves and placed them in a bowl.
Freya leaned in and asked in a hushed tone, “I’ve heard that the Monaghan Group is currently targeting the
Freeman Group. Is that true?”
Radley’s gaze flickered slightly. “There’s no such thing.
“But I’ve also heard that the Holland Group is going after the Freeman Group. Radley, if this is because of me, it’s
unnecessary. Both our families are deeply entrenched in the business world, and you should understand that adding
another enemy can be problematic. Especially since the Freeman Group has been a fixture in the capital for many
years with deep roots. If we push them too far, who knows how they might retaliate?”
Radley’s tone remained composed, with a hint of coldness. “They wouldn’t dare.”
For now, they have only terminated a few partnerships with the Freeman Group. If they dared to make a move
Radley was determined to make the entire Freeman family suffer.
People should pay the price for their mistakes. Riley’s problem lies in her character and upbringing. She’s the
daughter of the Freeman family, so Freeman Group should bear some responsibility for her actions.
Freya frowned. “Is this still considered doing nothing? All Riley did was attempt to tarnish my reputation
during the competition, and she didn’t succeed. Besides, this is my matter.”
Radley’s expression remained unchanged. “Your matters are my matters.”
Freya felt a bit flustered, but Trisha served her a piece of meat before she could argue further.
“Frey, taste this for me.”
Freya felt that Trisha had “betrayed” her.
They stayed in the courtyard until the afternoon. Freya chatted with Trisha and checked her pulse.
Her pulse was steady, and her heartbeat was strong.
Freya felt relieved.
Thinking about the upcoming surgery, she told Brandon, who was beside her, “Master, I have some things. to take
care of in the coming weeks, so I won’t be able to visit for about half a month.”
She planned to stay with Braxton after the surgery to monitor his post-operative condition, just in case. Brandon
waved his hand dismissively. “You disappeared for around three months when you gave birth to Jolly, and you
disappeared for almost a month when you participated in the competition. I’ve used
to it.

Freya suddenly felt a little sad. It was her strong suggestion for her master to stay, but she hadn’t fulfilled her duties

“Don’t worry; once I’m done with these matters, I’ll make sure to visit two to three days a week to catch up with

world. Stop complaining.”

Even when Trisha reprimanded someone, her voice remained gentle and soft. Brandon, with his stubborn
temperament, couldn’t utter a word in response, captivated by Trisha.
“I was just saying…” he mumbled softly.
Freya and Radley left the courtyard together.
They walked side by side on their way back, and when they reached a crossroad, Freya turned to Radley.
“Radley, did you come over today because you knew I was here?”
Radley fixed his gaze on her and replied, “Yes.”
Freya’s gaze fell on his neck and wrist, where the skin had turned slightly red from exposure to cooking
fumes.

linger. I can’t forget those things. Tean’t forget them, do you understand?”

Even though love was present in her memories, and even though she still loved Radley deep down, she felt that
some distance had developed between them.
Radley furrowed his brow, standing still where he was.
“Give me some time. Let me think this through. Your actions in Hartterre truly touched me, and I still have feelings
for you. But betrayal… How can I simply let it go?
“I know you love me now, but if I forgive even betrayal, it’s like stripping away my pride and self-esteem. You’re
hurting me.”
