She Took The House The Car And My Heart novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223 Whether You Show Up Or Not Is Up To…

Upon hearing everything, Farrah was utterly stunned. “Wait–her? That doesn’t make any sense, I always thought she was genuinely kind, especially since she was the one who helped me make that call back then.”

It was baffling. Truly beyond belief.

“I was a little taken aback myself,” Freya admitted honestly.

“I just don’t get it.” Farrah’s mind couldn’t grasp it. “If she was trying to mess with you, why would she go out

of her way to help me?”

“There are two possible reasons.” Freya had already given this plenty of thought.

Farrah asked, “What are they?”

“The first is that she only shows her cruel side to the women involved with Kristian, but aside from that, she’s still got a decent heart,” Freya explained slowly, choosing her words with care.

If she had a choice, she would rather believe Norah had simply helped Farrah out of kindness.

Farrah clutched her phone tightly and continued, “What’s the second possibility?”

“She did it on purpose–she wanted me to have a good impression of her, so that even if anyone ever figured out she was behind it, I’d refuse to believe it,” Freya replied, her voice steady. “She really did seem like a good

person when we first met.”

Farrah didn’t say a word.

“You said before that if it weren’t for that call, you would’ve done anything to protect your baby. No matter what, you’ll keep the baby.” Freya didn’t want to believe the worst in people. “She probably saw that coming and decided to make you feel indebted to her.”

After all, it happened at a hospital. No one really intended for things to go too far.

If things had come to a head, the medical staff would’ve had no choice but to contact Felipe, and at that point,

things would’ve taken a very different turn.

A cold shiver ran down Farrah’s back. “Why would she pull something like that? She comes from a wealthy family. She’s got everything.”

Farrah had always assumed the entertainment industry was full of scheming.

Only now did she realize it wasn’t just showbiz–this kind of darkness existed everywhere. Human nature was

fickle and full of shadows.

“I don’t know.” Freya didn’t want to dwell on it. It wasn’t something worth her time.

Chapter 223 Whether You Show Up Or Not Is Up To You

“So what are you going to do now?” Farrah was visibly worried for her. Thankfully, Freya had been sharp enough; if she hadn’t, things might’ve taken a terrible turn. “There’s basically no way to catch her in the act.”

Freya went quiet for a moment, then said, “I’ll talk to her grandpa, Josiah.”

She had told Farrah earlier that she’d go to Damon, but that had just been a red herring.

Matters like this weren’t usually resolved between peers. Even though Joah doted on his grandchildren, he

was a just and level–headed man.

And, of course, the real reason she chose him–Freya had a certain connection with him. If she brought it up with him, Norah wouldn’t get off easy.

“I’ve heard Josiah holds quite a high position,” Farrah said, clearly uneasy. “Can you even get a meeting with him?”

There were plenty of rumors about the Russell family in their circle.

Josiah had two sons–one was in the army, the other in business.

Some executive from a company had tried to meet him once but was politely rejected. Word had it Josiah

wasn’t fond of businessmen.

Farrah knew Freya was from the Briggs family, but even so, she wasn’t sure if Freya could get access to him.

“I can set it up,” Freya assured her without hesitation. “I’ve got the right contacts.”

“That’s a relief.” Farrah finally relaxed a little.

Before they ended the call, Freya reminded her again to take good care of herself.

Farrah quickly agreed, “Yeah, yeah, don’t worry.”

“You… don’t have even the slightest doubt in me?” Freya looked a little surprised.

“You’re my friend–why would I ever doubt you?” Farrah said it plainly and with conviction. “I know exactly the kind of person you are.”

“Thank you.” Freya’s heart felt lighter.

She had often heard from older people that the friends made at school were the most genuine. And once you left school, the ones you met were usually shallow and fleeting.

But Farrah was truly one of a kind. Even before Farrah knew who she really was, she had looked out for her,

treated her with warmth and care.

Now that Farrah knew Freya was part of the Briggs family, nothing had changed.

“What are you thanking me for?” Farrah teased, as she often did. “Silly girl.”

Freya let out a quiet laugh.

After ending the call with Farrah, Freya dialed Josiah.

When he answered, his voice was full of warmth. He chatted with her about everything under the sun. When Freya brought up that she wanted to visit him, his joy was unmistakable.

“I’ll be waiting for you,” Josiah said with his usual commanding tone, softened by his affection for her. “No

matter when, I’ll make time.”

Hearing that, Freys subconsciously touched the tip of her nose, suddenly feeling a little guilty about bringing bad news to someone who was welcoming her so warmly.

“Let’s get it for the sixth of next month.” Freya confirmed the date.

“Perfect!” Josiah responded with enthusiasm.

Among all the elders Freya knew–Lionel, Winslow, Josiah—they all adored her. Only Miguel remained

indifferent

Once he hung up, Josiah, still smiling ear to ear, picked up his phone and dialed another number.
