Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371 Taking Sides

Around half an hour later, Frieda arrived and strode into the house cockily. She only put her arrogance aside when she realized Alfred was sitting on the couch.

“You are here, Grandpa,” Frieda greeted Alfred with a pang of guilt.

Alfred threw her a displeased look and scoffed.

Frieda rubbed her nose idly and made to join them on the couch.

“Stand right there!” Jonathan snapped.

Frieda halted in her tracks unwillingly. As Alfred was around, she returned to her spot and stood there silently.

“Do you know why I asked you to come home?” Jonathan demanded.

Frieda pursed her lips and feigned ignorance. “I don’t know. I was shopping when you asked me to come back. Why are you upset?”

Jonathan wore a wintry expression. “Did you order Rex not to provide medicinal herbs to Dr. Jarvis’ research institute?”

Frieda nodded indifferently.

Seeing her response, Alfred and Jonathan shared a look of confusion.

Ever since Frieda first met Roxanne, she had been at odds with the latter.

Jonathan’s frown deepened. “Are you saying that Mrs. Farwell gave the order? Why did she do that?”

Frieda shot him a smug grin. “You don’t know about this, huh? Roxanne is Lucian’s ex-wife, and Mrs. Farwell didn’t like her at all. It so happened that—”

It so happened that I hated her, too. Thus, I took the chance to teach her a lesson.

Before Frieda could finish her sentence, Jonathan had guessed her intention. He leaped up from the couch abruptly.

Frieda’s voice trailed off in shock.

“Shut up! You’re part of the Queen family. How could you say that? If word gets out, people will definitely laugh at us. Queen Group has built its reputation painstakingly over the years, so there is no need to take sides to show our stance!” Jonathan stormed over to her and threw her a glare.
