Chapter 40: Three Conditions

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Freya had thought about it for a long time after knowing the reason.

She was willing to make the sacrifice if she could save the entire Phillips family. After all, she did not want to see Phillips Corporation go out of business, nor did she want to see her father in prison. Besides, since the other party had designated that she had to marry Connor, it meant that Connor must be
super-rich, and marrying him would be of great help to Phillips Corporation. But, Freya never expected that the person she was going to marry was a destitute food delivery guy.

At first, she had given up the fantasy of love in exchange for material satisfaction and saving Phillips Corporation. But Connor, who was standing in front of her, not only had no way to meet Freya’s material needs, but he also did not seem to be of any help to Phillips Corporation. She could not
understand why the foreign company would make a request like this.

Meanwhile, Connor was still immersed in the fantasy of Freya. He did not look forward to marrying Freya at first. He even resisted it a little. But, he instantly changed his mind when he learned that his fiancée was a stunning beauty.

“Twould not approve of you marrying someone like him, Freya. I’m going to find my uncle-in-law and ask him why he wants you to marry a person like him.” Maya snapped back and grabbed Freya’s hand to bring her out of the private dining room.

“That won’t be necessary. I know what’s going on.”

Freya said and then walked straight up to Connor. “You’re my fiancé, aren’t you?”

Freya’s question stunned him at first. He reached to scratch his head before replying with an embarrassed look. “Well, I suppose, yes.”

“Then, let us sit down and talk,” Freya said.

Maya saw that Freya had no intention of leaving, She looked on with confusion and said frustratedly, “What do you have to talk about with this kind of incel, Freya? Are you really going to marry him?”

Maya still knew little about the situation of Phillips Corporation right now. However, Freya knew that her only option now was to marry Connor, or her father would not get the foreign funding. So now, even if Freya did not want to marry Connor, she could not just leave like that. Freya had always been
very intelligent as the daughter of the Phillips family.

She figured that even if Connor was not a rich guy, as long as Phillips Corporation could sail through this difficulty, it would still be good for her family. Besides, what made Freya feel good was that Connor seemed to be more controllable than the other rich kids.

“You will go back with me now, and I will certainly dissuade my uncle-in-law,” Maya said. She could not bear to see her cousin marry Connor. So, she was very emotional.

“It’s okay, Maya.”

Freya said then sat down gracefully in a chair. She held her hand out to point at the seat opposite her and said, “Have a seat.”

Connor hesitated for a second before he sat down across Freya.

“Your name is Connor McDonald, right?” Freya asked.

“That’s right. I’m Connor,” he said, nodding happily.

Freya felt even more disgusted when she saw Connor’s reaction. “I suppose you know why we’re here today, right, Connor?”

“Absolutely.” Connor nodded. Thomas had already told him about the Phillips family before he came.

Freya stared dead at Connor with her big round eyes and said with no hesitation, “Since you know, then things will be easy. I will marry you.”

‘What Freya said stunned Connor. He did not expect Freya to agree to marry him so readily. According to the will, Connor must marry Freya within two years without revealing his identity.

‘Thomas was using business means to force the Phillips family to let Freya marry Connor. But, this was actually just to help Connor and Freya confirm their relationship. It did not mean that Freya must marry Connor, and even if she had to, it did not have to be within two years. So, Connor was still
worried about how to convince Freya to marry him. After all, he still could not reveal his identity. As long as he did not reveal his identity, he was still an incel and a food delivery guy without money. Not even ordinary girls would want to marry someone like Connor, let alone a stunning beauty like Freya.
But, what he never expected was that Freya agreed to the marriage as soon as they met.

“You are not crazy, are you, Freya? Why did you promise to marry a guy like him?” Maya looked at her in shock, and her eyes were wide open.

Connor was stunned and asked Freya, “Are you really going to marry me?”

“That’s right. I will marry you, but with three conditions. As long as you agree to these three conditions, I will marry you at any time,” Freya said slowly.

“What are the three conditions? I’m all ears.” Connor knew that Freya would not agree to marry him so readily for nothing.

Freya looked at Connor for a moment and then said, “First, we will get married and be known as husband and wife in public. But privately, you are you, and I am me.”

“That’s fine. Go on.” Connor nodded.

Freya looked at Connor and continued, “Second, you must not touch me simply because you and I are husband and wife in name.”

“That’s also fine. What about the last condition?” Connor could not help but laugh. By that time, he could already feel that Freya did not want to marry him at all. She just wanted Connor to play along so that she could get Thomas’ investment in Phillips Corporation.

“Third, you have no right to interfere in whatever I do,” Freya said slowly.

“Thave no right to interfere in whatever you do?” Connor rubbed his nose and asked softly, “What do you mean?”

“I’s simple. If I meet a man I like and fall in love with him, you should not interfere. By the same token, if you meet a girl you like, you may also do whatever you like, and I will not interfere,” Freya explained slowly.

“You mean you only want us to be husband and wife only in name, right?” Connor asked.

“That’s right. That’s exactly what I mean.” Freya looked at Connor and said in a sincere tone. “If I were to say that I’m willing to marry you, you would probably not believe it. So, it’s better to lay it bare before us and be fair to the both of us.”

“If I promise you these three conditions, your family will get the financial backing and stay afloat, and I will only marry a wife who is not exactly my wife and who I can’t even touch. So, why should I do this? What do I get in return?” Connor narrowed his eyes and uttered these two questions in
succession.
