Chapter 10 She Played Around After Marrying the Rich
“You two are divorced?” Rosie was shocked for a few seconds before turning overjoyed. “When did it happen?”
“A few days ago.”
Getting the delightful answer, she didn’t dwell on the matter of the photos anymore.
Radley didn’t pay much attention to the photos either, until the next day when the matter suddenly went viral.
‘Infidelity in marriage?’
‘How could she cheat on the president of the Monaghan Group? Is this woman dumb?’
‘Just by looking at this woman, you can tell that she’s a cheater and always seeks pleasure from different men.’
‘She was caught with the man in a bar. Really shameless!’
The netizens’ hateful comments flooded in like a tide. They were all directed at Freya.
Braxton always checked his phone at breakfast. That morning, as usual, he held a cup of coffee in one hand and scrolled on his phone in the other.
When he saw the news, he almost spat out the coffee in his mouth in surprise.
What was going on?
How did Matthew know my sister?
Braxton wiped his mouth with a piece of napkin and immediately called Matthew.
The phone rang for a while before Matthew answered it. His voice was still a bit hoarse, obviously still in a daze and not yet fully awake. “Hello?”
“What’s going on between you and my sister? She’s just divorced, and you’re already trying to take advantage of her? You have some nerve!” Braxton’s voice was fierce.
At first, Matthew was a little confused. But when he saw those pictures online, he understood.
He smirked and responded slovenly, “I didn’t do anything.”
But who knows what would happen in the future?
Immediately, Braxton warned, “If you dare to lay a finger on my sister, I won’t spare you!”
Freya had finally got past Radley. She couldn’t fall into the hands of Matthew, another player, again.
Matthew just smiled nonchalantly. Then, he remembered something.
Before hanging up the phone, he casually hinted, “By the way, I was surprised that your sister got married before, and even more so that it was to Radley Monaghan.”
“How did you know?” Braxton was taken aback. He hadn’t even told Freya about her marriage yet.
“I met him that day.” Matthew lazily yawned, obviously still quite sleepy. He didn’t say much and hung up the phone.
After the call, Braxton stormed straight into Freya’s room.
“Freya!”
Freya had already heard the sound of the door opening and had furrowed her brows. When she felt the restlessness of her brother standing beside her, she slowly opened her eyes and asked with a puzzled expression, “What’s wrong?”
Her innocent look made him furious. He held up his phone and shoved it in front of her. “Take a look yourself.”
In an instant, Freya became wide awake.
The more she scrolled, the more her face sank. When she got to the end, she was about to flare up.
“Who posted this?”
“I don’t know who posted this, but it’s obviously aimed at you. Don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of it.” Braxton had a solemn look too.
Hearing that, Freya put the phone away and looked up. Her gaze became extremely composed. “No need. I can handle it myself.”
Sensing her determination, Braxton could only nod.
“Alright, if you can’t handle it, come to me. I’m your brother.”
As he walked out of the room, he couldn’t help but turn back and remind her out of concern, “Radley is not a good man!”
Freya grinned. After her brother had left, she got up to wash up. While brushing her teeth, she worked on her speech in silence. Her phone rang.
It was a call from her manager
“Freya, don’t come to work for now. The entrance of our workplace is blocked.” The manager sounded a little tired.
With a short pause, the manager asked, “Those photos online… They’re not real, are they?”
Freya was silent for a few seconds before answering, “They’re real, but they’re taken from a misleading perspective.”
The implication was that she had indeed spent time with a man in a bar, but the intimacy wasn’t real.
The manager also went silent for a few seconds, unsure how to respond. Finally, he could only say, “Just stay home for the next few days and avoid the public.”
Freya responded lightly, “I understand. I’ll take care of it. Sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.”
After hanging up, Freya looked at herself in the mirror.
Her face was expressionless, and her eyes were as calm as a lake.
She hadn’t expected Radley to be so ruthless. He must have slandered her just to marry that woman as soon as possible.
In that case, she would fight back.
Upon washing up, Freya went downstairs for breakfast as usual. She was so calm that Braxton felt a little uneasy just looking at her.
It was like the calm before a storm.
With no response from the involved parties, the rumors online continued to spread and became more heated.
‘I heard this woman climbed her way into marriage. And now, she’s cheating on her husband!’
‘Jeez, how can she play around after marrying the rich!”
It wasn’t until the afternoon that Freya turned on her old phone and uploaded a photo.
Shortly after that, she released a statement.
‘Radley Monaghan and I have gotten divorced. The man in the photos is a friend of my brother’s, and the photos were taken from a misleading perspective. Hence, the intimacy isn’t real.’
The statement was uploaded together with a few photos of a divorce agreement, a divorce certificate, and an intimate photo of Radley and Danna Delgado.
