She Took The House The Car And My Heart novel Chapter 241

Chapter 241 Determined To Play Matchmaker

When Freya was done talking, Jarrett and Ethel both stared at her, as if genuinely stunned she’d say something

like that.

Ethel hesitated for a second. “Mina, you…”

“Mmm?” Freya drew out the sound, lifting a brow.

“Thank you for your blessing!” Jarrett suddenly shot up, offering a deep, earnest bow in her direction. “Please trust me I’ll take care of her with everything I’ve got. I won’t let her go through anything unfair!”

“Good.” Freya’s expression eased a touch, softening around the edges.

Ethel instantly broke into a grin. She stepped forward and wrapped her arms around Freya, murmuring with a tiny sniffle, “I love you so much.”

Freya cared deeply for her. There was simply no way Freya could oppose her relationship. Ethel, all of a sudden, felt a sting of guilt for having doubted Freya earlier.

“I love you too.” Freya’s heart settled a little more.

From the second she walked in, she’d been sizing up Ethel’s boyfriend, and she had to admit he really did seem to love her sister.

He knew her preferences, her aversions, and all the small, thoughtful things he did showed that his feelings weren’t just for show.

After dinner, Freya decided to give them some space. They were at that age where dating was only natural.

“Jarrett, I’m gonna pass on hanging out this afternoon.” Ethel had some things she needed to go over with her

sister.

Jarrett understood right away. “Alright.”

As they were heading out, Freya made her way to the front to settle the bill.

With her around, there was no way she’d let Ethel or Jarrett pay a cent.

Once they’d parted ways with Jarrett, Ethel slid into the passenger seat of Freya’s car. On the drive home, she glanced over and asked again, “Mina, you really don’t mind me being with Jarrett?”

“If I were against it, would that actually stop you two from being together?” Freya rarely joked around, but her tone was playful.

“Yes, it would!” Ethel nodded confidently.

She trusted her sister wholeheartedly. If Freya didn’t approve of someone, it would definitely be for a reason.

“Now I’m kinda starting to feel bad for your boyfriend,” Freya teased, smirking

Ethel puffed out her cheeks. “Mina!”

“That kind of thinking isn’t healthy. Whether it’s me or Dad, even if we disagree, you should still form your own opinions,” Freya told her calmly. “We’re not always right, and we ‘t possibly understand everything that goes on between the two of you.”

Ethel blinked. “So should I listen to you and Dad or not?”

“If there’s a difference in opinion, we just need to sit down and talk things through,” Freya replied. “Understand each other, weigh things out properly, then decide.”

“What do you think of my boyfriend?” Ethel genuinely valued her sister’s judgment.

“He’s fine. He treats you well. But he’s a little on the timid side,” Freya answered bluntly. “As for the rest, I

can’t say yet.”

Ethel twirled her fingers in her lap. “He’s not really timid.”

“Oh, really?”

“He just got nervous meeting the family.”

Freya didn’t say anything. Even if Jarrett got nervous meeting his girlfriend’s family, shouldn’t that only apply to the parents? Why was he jumpy around her, Ethel’s sister?

Ethel had no idea what was going through Freya’s head, so she added her own theory, “I think meeting Dad did.” wouldn’t even make him as nervous as meeting you

“Am I that scary?”

“Not scary. Just that you’re, like, a strong, capable woman–you’ve got that vibe, you know?”

Freya remained quiet.

Ethel felt completely reassured now. “With you backing me, Dad’s approval is pretty much in the bag. My relationship is basically safe.”

“Dad hasn’t even met him yet.”

“Dad listens to you!” Ethel said with conviction.

At that, something finally clicked for Freya. She glanced at her sister, her eyes warm with affection, before driving her back to her own apartment.

At 1:30 in the afternoon, Freya and Ethel pulled into the apartment complex.

Just as they stepped out of the car and started walking toward the elevator, they spotted a tall, striking man stepping out of another vehicle, dressed in a sleek black coat and carrying two suitcases.

“Oh my god!” Ethel’s eyes went wide. “Freya, there are guys that good–looking in this building?”

He was right up there with Kristian!

Freya had just locked up the car and didn’t look too closely. “Don’t forget, you have a boyfriend.”

“I’m scouting for you, not me,” Ethel said cheekily. “Look at that guy–tall, great posture, and that whole presence? He’s totally your type!”

Freya turned her head, curious who’d managed to earn such glowing praise from Ethel

Freya had a thing for good looks, and so did Ethel. If someone didn’t look unning, Ethel wouldn’t be handing out compliments like that.

“Mina!” Ethel grabbed Freya’s arm, her voice lowered in a dramatic whisper. “I think he’s looking over here! Do you know him? Is he checking you out?”

Could it be love at first sight?

That would be sweet!

Just as she said it, Freya caught sight of the man Ethel was talking about.

Her body tensed slightly, and all she could do was mentally curse her bad luck. Why did it have to be Ellis?

“The elevator’s closing. You coming or not?” Ellis, spotting Freya frozen in place, gave her a casual reminder.

Freya was about to say she’d wait for the next one, but Ethel tugged her forward. “Let’s go, hurry!”

Freya didn’t have a choice, but she made sure not to look like she was dodging him.

If Ellis picked up on it, he’d definitely think she was trying to run away.

“Thanks, sir,” Ethel said sweetly once they were inside, stars practically shining in her eyes.

“No worries.” Ellis’s gaze flicked over to Freya, who’d been calm and collected from the second she stepped in. “I’m your sister’s friend. Just call me Ellis.”
