My Ex-wife's Hidden Personalities

Chapter 438 What a Stroke of Luck 

The four of them gathered in the living room and stayed there for a while. Baxter sat next to Hannah, looking somewhat concerned.

“Hannah, does your mother not approve of me?” he asked.

Upon hearing this, Freya furrowed her brows and looked up at Baxter.

Why does this man give her a sense of being insincere?

Hannah lowered her voice and reassured him, “Bax, you’ve taken it the wrong way. My mother is always like this. Don’t worry. From now on, my family is your family, and they will all like you very much.”

After Hannah finished speaking, she was worried that Baxter wouldn’t believe her, so she looked up at Freya and said. “Right, Freya?”

Hearing that, Freya ambiguously nodded and replied, “Hmm.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Let’s go for a walk in the yard.” Hannah then pulled Baxter up and mentioned.

“Radley, let’s accompany them,” Freya suggested to Radley.

With that, the four of them arrived at the garden, with Hannah tightly holding Baxter’s hand, afraid that he would be left alone.

Freya and Radley followed behind them. Freya smiled and asked, “Is Hannah afraid that you’ll chat with Baxter?”

Radley’s gaze was cold, and he seemed frustrated.

The Monaghans’ mansion had a large backyard. After walking around for a while, Baxter’s excitement grew.

He lowered his gaze and looked at Hannah, who was by his side..

He really lucked out! He originally thought this girl came from a good family, but he didn’t expect her family to be this wealthy!

Baxter’s voice became even gentler when talking to Hannah.

After walking for a while, the four of them rested at a small pavilion.

Freya smiled and started the conversation, “Mr. Smith, where are you currently employed?”

“I’m not doing much right now, but Hannah and I plan to open a bar after we get married.” Baxter smiled.

“That’s not a bad idea. Since Caltun is a metropolis, opening a bar should require considerable money. right?” Freya responded with a nod.

Hearing that, Baxter looked a bit embarrassed.

“Bax and I have calculated it. It would cost around 150 million for the investment. Hannah spoke up before he could.

Freya repeated surprisedly, “150 million?”

Hannah usually only attended gatherings with her friends or would frequent some members-only exclusive clubs.

She knew nothing about bars, so Freya could tell that Baxter was the one who came up with this figure.

He hadn’t even married her yet, but he was already planning on living off Hannah.

Freya didn’t discriminate against ex-convicts, but he had an insatiable greed.

She wasn’t against Hannah being in a relationship with anyone, but couples should also progress together.

Even if Baxter had good intentions, he shouldn’t have already calculated everything.

Freya pursed her lips. “Alright, once your bar is open, Radley and I will give you a generous gift.

Baxter gave out a somewhat awkward smile upon hearing that and pondered what Freya meant. What does ‘give a generous gift’ mean? Is it money for opening the bar?

He cautiously glanced at Radley, who was standing next to Freya. The cold gaze Radley occasionally cast made Baxter feel rather uneasy.

Hannah, who was insensitive to money matters, didn’t think too much and smiled. “Sure, Freya. You should come and visit often.”

Freya nodded, then furrowed her brow. “But Hannah, where are you planning to get the 150 million for your startup capital?”

Hannah didn’t hesitate and looked at Radley as she spoke. “Radley, can you lend it to me?”

“You mentioned it’s for a startup. Since it’s a startup, the family can’t provide too much support.” Radley’s gaze was indifferent.

Freya glanced at Baxter, whose expression had already changed.

Hannah counted on her fingers and said, “Forget it. I had sold all my jewelry, which is worth tens of millions, but it’s still far from enough.”

The Monaghan family and the Kaufmann family were the two major conglomerates in Caltun, where one had dominated the south and one in the north of Caltun for many years.

Hannah then looked at Freya. “Freya, how about you lend me 100 million, and I’ll pay you back when I earn the money?”

Freya smiled and shook her head. She did have 100 million, but she couldn’t just give it to a freeloader.

“The Kaufmann Group has recently encountered some issues. Freya looked at Hannah regrettably. “There’s a problem with the capital chain, and we’re short by over 20 billion. I’m currently borrowing money from my grandmother’s family in Vroria. I’m also temporarily borrowing some spare money from your brother.”

After speaking, Freya looked at Hannah. “You don’t mind, do you?”

Although Hannah was domineering, she was a kind person and didn’t think too much of it. She believed. that the genuine issue lay in the disruption of the capital chain.

“Freya, do you still need more money? If it’s not enough, I can auction off my jewelry and give you the money. I calculated it earlier, and it can sell for around 60 million.”

Freya smiled and glanced at Baxter, whose face had turned pale. “Alright, but there’s no need to auction. them off. Just give them to me directly.”

“Okay, I’ll go upstairs and get them for you,” Hannah replied without hesitation.

Hannah was loved by the Monaghans, and her jewelry had all been bought by her family since she was young. In addition, every year on her birthday, Radley would buy her some jewelry from auctions, as if he was saving them as dowry for her.

After a while, the four of them returned to the living room.

Hannah hurriedly went upstairs to get the jewelry for Freya. She truly regarded Freya as her future sister- in-law and was thinking about helping her out.

Baxter followed her upstairs.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Freya smiled as she sat next to Radley.

“Baxter doesn’t seem too challenging to deal with. As long as we make it clear to him that he won’t get any benefits from Hannah, he will eventually leave.”

“But Hannah may not agree. Radley raised an eyebrow.

“We’ll have to proceed step by step then. Let’s start by collecting the jewelry Hannah currently has. I’m not concerned about her giving it to Baxter, but someone like him will become hooked once he experiences. the rewards.” Freya looked in the direction of the spiral staircase with a hint of coldness in her eyes. “And this guy has a voracious appetite.”

Based on our information, Baxter sells alcohol in a bar, and his life has always been unstable, with sporadic employment.

With a bar worth 150 million being built, it would become a prominent and competitive establishment in Caltun.

Soon, Hannah came running down. “Freya, I’ve already had the butler pack up my jewelry. Please take them with you when you go back later.”

Freya nodded with a smile and glanced at Baxter.

Baxter’s face had turned almost pale.

“Chris is coming to Caltun tomorrow. You and your boyfriend should come and join us. It will be beneficial for him to get to know our social circle and make more friends, which will benefit your future bar business.” Freya chuckled.

“Okay, what time and where tomorrow? We’ll be there on time.” Hannah nodded.

“Trinity Club. 7 p.m., Freya said with a smile.

Baxter couldn’t sit still anymore. He had many things he wanted to ask Hannah. “I have some things to take care of this afternoon. Radley, Freya. I’ll leave first.

Hearing that, Radley kept his gaze down and didn’t say anything while Freya gave him an ambiguous. smile.

Hannah, who couldn’t stand being separated from Baxter, stood up at the same time and announced, “In that case, I’ll go out with him.”

Radley raised his gaze, and his chilly gaze swept over Baxter. “You must be back home before eight o’clock at night.”

Watching Hannah and Baxter leave, Freya pinched her brow and uttered, “I hope Hannah can grow from this experience.”

At that, Radley turned to look at her. Do you have a solution?”

“It would be rather challenging.” Freya nodded.
