Chapter 1681
Sandy warned her in a deep voice, “Fey, don’t you dare take another step away from the table.”
Freyja’s footsteps stopped for a split second, but she still left with Daisie in the end. Sandy stared at their figures as
they left the restaurant, and her expression looked extremely piqued. “It seems that getting to know the daughter
of the Goldmanns has made her more arrogant and contemptuous.”
‘I wanted to use this meal to win Daisie Vanderbilt over with Freyja’s help. However, not only did Freyja not do
anything to help, but she actually made it even worse than before.’
Ken wiped the corners of his lips with a handkerchief.“ Mother, you don’t have to worry that much. You
eventually.”
Sandy sounded worried. “That young girl from the Goldmanns isn’t someone to be trifled with, especially with
Nollace protecting her like that.”

‘Ever since Mr. Reese died, everyone has turned their attention to Donald and thinks it has something to do with
him. Wouldn’t it be interesting to let Donald know that Nollace had approached Lara?’
Sandy was startled. “Do you have a solution to this matter?”
Ken smirked. “The way to get the young girl to fall in love with someone else is to take advantage of any weak
points in her relationship, and I’ve already chosen someone to accomplish that for us.”
Meanwhile, outside the restaurant…
“Freyja, you’ve just left the dinner. Will your mother do anything to you?”
Freyja stopped but did not look back. “I’ve gotten very used to being threatened . What’s there to be afraid of? The
most that I’ll get would be getting forced into an arranged marriage.”
“An arranged marriage?” Daisie was shocked by the reply and walked around her. “They threatened you with a
marriage arrangement?”
Freyja did not utter a single word, which meant she admitted it tacitly. Daisie grabbed her by her shoulders. “Who
do they want you to get married to?”
Freyja lowered her gaze. “Whoever they think will be beneficial to them.”
Daisie gasped.
‘I’ve never seen such family members. Are they even her family?’
“It’s okay, I don’t care, and you don’t have to worry about me.” Freyja frowned. “You’re the one who needs to
worry and be wary. It’s obvious that my mother doesn’t want you to be with Nollace. Your identity is a stepping
stone to the Knowles that will make them even more powerful. She doesn’t like the Knowles, so in order to win you
over for the family, they have to cut off your relationship with Nollace.”
Daisie pursed her lips and said nothing.
Freyja sighed. “And don’t underestimate Ken. He always catches somebody off guard with his ways of doing things.
Who knows when he will take a shot at you?”

At the underground black market… Nollace sat at a gambling table and played a round of poker. Two groups of men
were standing next to the table, one group consisted of Donald’s men, and the other was the bodyguards that
Nollace had brought along.
Nollace played his cards-it was three aces of spades.
Donald was smoking a cigar. He wafted the smoke aside and squinted. “You’re so lucky, Mr. Knowles. It’d be a pity if
you were to overdo things and run out of it.”
Listening to his pregnant words, Nollace gave off a smirk. “I didn’t overdo anything. Why the sudden advice , Mr.
Matthews?”
He dusted off the ash. “Mr. Reese is dead, and the public is pointing all their fingers at me. But it turns out that you
had met Lara before that, and that girl named Lisa, you’re the one who asked Lara to bring her along when she
came to see me.”
“Yes,” Nollace admitted it. “But Mr. Reese’s death has nothing to do with me. I went to meet Ms. Reese only to offer
her a way out. As for Lisa, I admit that I wanted to torture her through you.
“On the contrary, if Lisa didn’t go along with Lara that night, you would’ve made a move on Ms. Reese, and you’d
be in an even worse situation now. Good luck trying to explain Mr. Reese’s death now.”
