Chapter 382
“Do you still think you’ve done nothing wrong?”
Jonathan could figure out what she was thinking with just one glance. With a cold look, he put down the documents in his hands and gravely looked at the young woman in front of him.
Frieda frowned. “I didn’t do anything wrong. The one targeting Roxanne was Mrs. Farwell, not me. I was just working on her instructions.”
“Mrs. Farwell told you herself not to supply any herbs to Dr. Jarvis’ research institute?” Jonathan sternly questioned, causing Frieda to jump in fright.
She tensed for a second, but she was quick to relax again. Then, she steeled herself and replied, “Even if Mrs. Farwell didn’t tell me that, I know what she wants. Furthermore, we’re in a good relationship with Farwell Group. Shouldn’t we help Mrs. Farwell?”
Before Jonathan could speak, Frieda continued, “Jonathan, remember that Roxanne left without a word; she only left behind divorce papers. Mrs. Farwell hasn’t settled the score with her yet. Aren’t we, the people who know what happened, stand on the same side as the Farwells? You should be avenging Lucian with how close you are to him!”.
Jonathan returned the question to her in a cold tone. “Did Lucian tell you this? Does Lucian need either you or me to avenge him?”.
As far as Jonathan knew, not only did Lucian not need them to avenge him, but he was even defending Roxanne even more than others. Therefore, how could Lucian possibly let them target Roxanne? With that in mind, Jonathan began thinking about how Lucian might not know that Sonya was targeting Roxanne. Otherwise, there was no way Lucian would not do anything until now. Meanwhile, Frieda was still going on with her excuses. “Regardless of everything, what Roxanne did back then was a fact. Mrs. Farwell would never forgive her and Aubree”
“Stop!” Jonathan sternly interrupted her upon returning to his senses. “You know well whether you’re doing this for Mrs. Farwell or for yourself! Frieda Queen, ask yourself this-what has Dr. Jarvis done wrong to our family? If not for her, Grandpa wouldn’t even have recovered so well. She’s the Queen family’s savior! It’s one thing for you to target her verbally, but you still refuse to admit that you’ve done wrong even after doing something ludicrous like this!”
It was the first time Frieda had seen her brother so livid, and for a while, she was frightened into silence.
Jonathan then knitted his brows. “I don’t know where your prejudice against Dr. Jarvis came from, but from now on, I don’t want to hear you doing foolish things like these anymore, let alone hear you using Farwell Group as your excuse!”
It was then Frieda recollected herself and parted her lips to defend herself.

However, before she could say anything, the man in front of her stood up and returned to his seat behind his desk. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“You can go back if you have nothing else to say. I have work to do. Also, it’s best that you stay home for the time being. I’m afraid you don’t have enough self-discipline.” Jonathan knew that he would not be able to convince her to change her mind, so he did not want to waste his breath anymore.

With that said, he threw himself into his work and did not spare another glance at Frieda anymore.
Even so, Frieda was reluctant to give in. When she saw that he was no longer looking at her, she kept trying to make noises to attract her brother’s attention.
Yet, he did not raise his head to look at her even after a while.
Scoffing in annoyance, Frieda grabbed her bag and rose to her feet. She then stormed out of the office, her heels clacking. Still irked, Frieda slammed the door behind her when she went out. Jonathan only briefly furrowed his brows at the loud noise before continuing with his work.
