Frey had no idea what methods Nathaniel used to force the Rivera family to come directly to her, setting aside their pride.
However, asking her to intercede with Nathaniel on their behalf was something she simply couldn’t do.
"Mr. Charles, you may have heard that Mr. Nathaniel and I broke up. I really can't help you with this..."
"Frey!" Barbara's expression changed instantly, and she suddenly rushed towards Frey. Mandy quickly stepped in front of her.
Barbara knelt with a thud. "Frey, please help us."
"The Rivera family is really at a dead end because of Mr. Nathaniel. We have no other way."
"Mr. Nathaniel has always loved you. Please help us."
"Our old man is also very angry. Jacob has sent him back to the countryside to recuperate. You've seen that Jacob has been good to you. Please talk to Mr. Nathaniel for us. Maybe he'll let us go if he's in a good mood!"
The word "please" pierced Frey's eardrums. She frowned, and Mandy, standing by, thought the Rivera family's words were ridiculous.
They had been so brutal before, and now they were begging for help. How could they expect her to plead on their behalf with Nathaniel?
Moreover, when the Gomez family was being punished by Nathaniel, Killian didn't ask the Rivera family for help. What did the Rivera family do then? They helped the Morgan family, making things worse for the Gomez family.
Everyone was involved in Killian's downfall. No one was innocent. How could they now ask her to plead for them?
Wasn't this absurd?
Mandy whispered, "Ms. Frey, go through the side door. Don’t go to the garage to pick up the car. I'll arrange for someone to take you back."
Frey nodded. She hadn't expected Barbara to ask her to plead with Nathaniel for the Rivera family's sake.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly and looked at Charles, who seemed more composed. "Mr. Charles, I'm afraid Mr. Nathaniel won't forgive Jacob for what he did this time. I... can't do anything."
