Everyone understood that despite Andre's words, if Freya really chose Connor, the Washington family wouldn't just let it go.
They might even directly confront him. In that case, his fate could be extrely tragic.
Canela stood foolishly in place, her expression filled with helplessness.
She originally thought that revealing this matter would cause a big commotion in the Yearwood family. But she never expected that no one seed to care about this matter. Everyone had a nonchalant attitude.
Camila, on the other hand, took a deep breath, and her nervousness instantly eased a bit. She turned her head and looked at Canela's position, secretly planning that after this incident passed, she would definitely get back at Canela. After all, all of this was caused by Canela. If it wasn't for her, things wouldn't have escalated to this point.
While the Yearwood family discussed handling the matter, Connor and Freya had already wandered around Santon for a while. Santon was originally a tourist attraction, so there were many scenic spots, and one day was not enough to visit all of them. Freya and Connor agreed that after the banquet, they would continue to explore Santon.
However, at this mont, they had no idea that the Yearwood and Washington families were conspiring.
"Connor, it's getting late. Let's find a place to eat and then go back to rest..."
Freya took out her phone and checked the ti, then said softly to Connor.
"Sure..."
He was also a bit tired from the sightseeing, so he nodded without any hesitation.
She didn't know much about the situation in Santon, so she opened the map on her phone to find a nearby restaurant. But at that mont, her phone suddenly rang.
When she saw the number on her phone, she couldn't help but pause for a mont and furrowed her brow. She said, "Why is Heathcote calling ?"
"Who is Heathcote?"
Connor turned to Freya and asked.
"Heathcote is also from the Yearwood family. He's Canela's cousin. I've t him a few tis in the US. I think he's quite a nice person, one of the few people from the Yearwood family that I know..."
"Since you think he's a nice person, then answer the call and see what he wants..."
Connor said with a smile.
After hesitating for a mont, she decided to answer the call and asked, "Cousin, why are you calling ?"
Regardless of anything, Canela was still Freya's mother, so she addressed him as her cousin.
"Freya, where are you now?" he asked with a smile.
"I'm outside now. Do you need anything?" she replied.
"Freya, the younger generation of our Yearwood family is having a gathering at Wanxiang Hotel. We want to take this opportunity to get together since we're all usually busy and rarely have the chance to et..." he explained.
"Oh..."
She wasn't very interested in this kind of thing, so she responded with an indifferent tone.
"Why don't you co over?"
Heathcote hesitated for a mont before suggesting.
Her expression showed a trace of hesitation upon hearing Heathcote's invitation. She then said softly, "I'm not very familiar with those people from the Yearwood family, except for you. I don't know anyone else. I think I won't go. There's nothing much going on anyway, so I'll hang up..."
"Don't be like that. Everyone wants to see you, especially since it's your first ti coming to our Yearwood family. Wouldn't you give us so face and co over?"
He insisted.
After thinking for a mont, she hesitated again and said, "That's not very convenient for now. I'm with my fiancé. Why don't I discuss it with him and see if he wants to go..."
"Oh, co on, there's nothing to discuss. Just bring your fiancé along. I'll send soone to pick you both up. Everyone is waiting for you. After all, we'll be interacting in the future, so co over as a favor..."
"Well..."
Seeing how insistent he was, she felt a bit embarrassed to keep refusing, so she said softly, "Then forget it. Let discuss it with my fiancé, and I'll see if he wants to go..."
"Great! There's nothing to discuss. Just bring your fiancé with you..."
Heathcote said straightforwardly and then hung up the phone.
After seeing the call end, she put down her phone helplessly.
Connor saw that Freya's expression seed a little off and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Heathcote just called and said that the younger generation of the Yearwood family is having a gathering at a hotel. They want to invite us over..."
Freya responded with a hint of helplessness.
"I thought it was sothing serious. Since they invited us, let's go and take a look..." he said casually.
"I felt these people must have no good intentions. We shouldn't go. What if they give you a hard ti?"
She furrowed her brow as she spoke.
"Since they invited us so warmly, let's go and take a look. I want to see what tricks they can play..." he said with an indifferent expression.
"Aren't you afraid?"
She paused for a mont, then asked softly.
"What's there to be afraid of..."
He replied with a faint smile.
Not to ntion the younger generation of the Yearwood family, even the elders and the entire Yearwood family, Connor didn't care about them, so he naturally had nothing to fear.
Upon hearing Connor's words, Freya couldn't help but pause for a mont, then blinked and asked, "So, are you saying we should go now?"
"Yes, since they invited us both, of course, we should go and see..."
He nodded gently.
After hearing his response, Freya's expression seed sowhat helpless.
Because she was really worried, what if these people gave Connor a hard ti? What should she do then?
