Chapter 1820
Colton looked at the coffee bag in the cup and squinted. “I don‘t drink instant coffee.”
“I‘m so sorry, we only have instant,” said Freyja with a smile.
The nanny overheard her as she brought fruits and was curious,” Ma‘am, there are coffee beans in the cabinet. I just got them.”
Freyja was rendered speechless.
Colton had to hold in his laugh. “Ms. Pruitt, is this how you treat your guests?”
The nanny thought that he was upset, so she said, “I‘m sorry, sir. Please forgive her. I didn‘t tell her we got the beans. Let me go brew some for you.”
Colton was very nice to her. “There‘s no need, thank you.”
The nanny nodded and left.
He picked up a piece of fruit and looked at Freyja, who was standing there. “I won‘t hold this against you.”
Freyja turned to walk upstairs.
Colton saw her disappear up her stairs and was weirdly unsettled, so he pushed the dish away and left.
Freyja heard the sound of the car driving away and looked out the window. She didn‘t see the car in the courtyard, so she drew her blinds.
Deedee walked in with a teddy bear the same size as her.“ Aunty, Daddy?”
Freyja walked to her, knelt, and touched her face. “Deedee, he’s not your daddy. You can‘t call him that, okay?”
Deedee didn‘t really understand. Even though she had never seen her parents and didn‘t know what a complete family looked like, how would Freyja explain what happened to her parents to her when she grew up?
At the college...
Daisie paced the bottom floor of the building, waiting for someone.
