My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1751

She paused, pursed her lips, and drank more than half her cup. Then, she looked away and said, "If I were stronger and held my ground, calling that woman out, maybe Zachary and I wouldn't have gotten to this point."

I rarely saw her like this. She looked as lonely as a traveler alone in the night, covered in wind and snow. I didn't know how to answer her.

Freya looked on for a while, and her loneliness dissipated in the blink of an eye. She began to gossip. "How long will you and Hendrix pretend to be divorced? Fortunately, you told me. Otherwise, I would have taught Hendrix a lesson when I saw that attitude of his."

"I don't know. It'll take some time." I sighed and suddenly felt a little depressed.

Who would be willing to pretend to be enemies if they could love each other without bounds?

There would never be a shortage of women around Hendrix. Even if none of them matched his strength and background perfectly, what if someone who could replace me really appeared one day? What should I do then?

As soon as I finished speaking, my phone vibrated in my pocket.

I took it out and found that it was a video call from Hendrix.

"Well, the big boss is here to check on you. I'd better stay away!" Freya joked, stood up and left.

To gain a firm foothold in the business circle, Freya had to rely on her connections. However, she had a lukewarm relationship with Pedro, so she appealed to Hendrix for him to invest instead. That was why he'd attended the ribbon- cutting ceremony that day. From that day on, Freya often joked about it by saying that she was working hard for Hendrix.

Helplessly, I shook my head with a smile and then picked up the phone call.

"You're only picking up my call after so long. Aren't you done being angry?" Hendrix raised his eyebrows and laughed smugly.
