Chapter 2367
The living room was silent for a moment.
Brandon was stunned for a long time, then lowered his head. “Fey… I just don’t want to cause you trouble.”
He added slowly, “And there’s no need to spend so much money on food. As long as it’s still edible, it’ll get me going. I’m still doing well now, aren’t I?”
Freyja scoffed out of anger. “Just give it to me straight. Are the Pruitts running out of money already?”
He did not utter a single word.
“I found out almost instantly when I first stepped into this place. The car parked outside is gone. You must’ve sold it. The things in the house haven’t changed much, but all the a
gone now.” Freyja pointed to the empty cabinet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Mother had gotten used to living a luxurious lifestyle, and the antiques were her babies, so there’s no way that she would sell them away.
“That would leave me with only one possibility. Dad sold all the antiques and dismissed all the servants after my mother got into jail.
‘He obviously knows how to cook, but he’s reluctant to buy fresh ingredients. And what’s left in
the refrigerator? Frozen meat and frozen food that smell. Even the leftovers are days old and so dry that they’re sticking to the plate. At the same time, the layer of oil found on
Brandon pursed his lips, looking a little defeated and powerless. “I’m sorry…”
“So tell me now, where did all the money go?” After yelling at him, Freyja suddenly remembered something, and her face paled slightly. “Is it Mother?”
Brandon was silent.
Freyja froze in place.
‘When my mother brought Deedee to Bassburgh to find me, why didn’t I think of… ‘Why would she bring Deedee to Bassburgh just to threaten me?‘
“Fey… Don’t blame your mother, she
“You’re still defending her at this moment?” Freyja’s eyes were bloodshot, and she gnashed her teeth. “She took all the money with her, didn’t she?”
Brandon kept quiet and did not explain anything.
Freyja knew about her father’s submissive temperament since she was a kid. Even though her mother had done something bad to him, he would never blame her.
Thinking of this, she did not know whether to blame her father for his kindness or his cowardice.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Fey, there’s really no need…”
Freyja raised her voice. “You don’t think it’s necessary? That’s why you didn’t tell me about all this? If I really didn’t plan to come back here for the rest of my life, when you’ve r
to sell, did you plan to sell the manor away and live on the street?”
Brandon looked like a child who had done something wrong. He kept his head down and did not dare to utter a single word.
After venting out all her wrath, Freyja remained silent for a moment. “Let’s eat first. We’ll discuss this later.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that she was really angry, Brandon could only sit down.
Freyja continued to reprimand him while serving the meal. “Look at you. You’re living alone but can’t take care of yourself. I actually thought of sending Deedee back here to sta
here. Otherwise, she would have had to starve with you.”
“I’m sorry, Fey…”
She picked up her silverware. “You don’t have to apologize to me. I’ll hire a housekeeper from tomorrow onward, I’m about to sit for a postgraduate program entrance examina
“I’ve troubled you again.” Brandon lowered his gaze. “Fey, even if you choose not to care about me, I won’t blame
you. You’ve grown up and have your own life now. I shouldn’t be a burden to you.”
Freyja did not respond to him. “The food is going to get cold. You should eat first.”
Brandon did not say anything anymore.
The next day, Freyja got up early and went out to buy breakfast. When she returned, she frowned when she saw Brandon secretly storing last night’s meals in the refrigerator.
