MainNovelChapter 327:
While previous collaborations with Shaw Group had gone well, the fact that it was Kristian’s company made her
eager to push for better terms.
Alan didn’t argue. He knew Freya had a sharp business mind.
Later, after securing the project, Robin invited her to stay for a meal, but Freya politely declined. Melvin had
been waiting for her downstairs for over two hours, and they had to head back to her own company.
As soon as Freya stepped out of the office, Hugh arrived.
He had been searching the entire building for her but couldn't find her. Finally, he made his way to Alan. “Have
you seen Mina?”
“She just left,” Alan replied nonchalantly.
“Left?” Hugh's brows furrowed. “Didn’t you ask her to stay for a meal?” He had just ordered all of Freya's favorite
dishes, hoping to catch her before she left.
“She had something urgent,” Alan explained with a slight hint of mischief. “In the future, you might want to be
more cautious about who you bring into the company. She might not voice her objections, but she carries
negative feelings.”
Hugh immediately understood that Freya was still upset with him.
Meanwhile, Freya wasn’t dwelling on that matter. After leaving Briggs Group, she joined Melvin in the car. He had

dishes Freya liked. He wasn’t one to be too extravagant but understood her preferences.
Just as they arrived, Freya's phone buzzed with a message from Hugh. “Chfor dinner tonight, okay?”
Freya didn’t bother replying. She had just humiliated Vivien at the company, and Vivien would surely go back and
complain to her mother. Freya didn’t know the woman her father was dating and didn’t want to jump to
conclusions.

But she definitely didn’t want to sit through a dinner while her father took calls from that woman. Turning down
the dinner invitation seemed like the best course of action.
As they dined, Freya overheard a voice she could do without.
“It was because of a woman that I got fired.” Vivien’s voice wasn’t too loud, but it carried just enough for Freya
to hear. “You have no idea how humiliating it was. That woman told the whole planning department that I'd
never be allowed into Briggs Group again. | didn’t even make a scene. It's not my fault!”
Vivien’s anger boiled over. “I told you it was that woman causing all this trouble. I've been working hard, and
today they just firedwithout warning!”
She paused, clearly frustrated with the person on the other end of the line. “No matter what happens, it’s always
my fault. You always defend him. Let's see how calm you stay when he leaves you for that woman.”
Vivien hung up the phone angrily and
