Chapter 273 - 273: You Deceived Even My Cousin
However, Priscilla was not someone that Maya could compare to. Even if she were shocked, she would not show it on her face.
On the contrary, she took the initiative to reach out to Connor and said with a smile, “Hello, Connor. I’m Freya’s cousin, Priscilla. You can just call me that!”
Priscilla was not an ordinary woman. A simple sentence had instantly closed the distance between Connor and her.
When Connor heard Priscilla’s introduction, a hint of surprise flashed across his face.
He didn’t expect Priscilla to not look down on him. Instead, she spoke to him very politely.
Therefore, Connor quickly shook hands with her and then said with a smile, “Hello, Priscilla!”
“Connor, let go of Priscilla’s hand. You big pervert, are you trying to take advantage of us again?”
Maya shouted after seeing Connor and Priscilla shaking hands.
“Uhm…”
Connor was shocked when he heard this. He immediately let go of Priscilla’s hand.
Meanwhile, Freya turned and glared at Maya, berating her coldly, “Maya, Connor is now your brother-in-law. Even if you had a misunderstanding with him before, you can’t hold on to it!”
“1 don’t want a brother-in-law like him!” Maya pouted and replied indignantly.
“Sigh…” Freya looked at Maya helplessly.
However, Freya also knew that Maya did not have any bad intentions. She was young and did not have any shrewdness. She spoke whatever she thought.
However, Maya was different from Qahira. Qahira had humiliated Connor just for the sake of it, but Maya stood up for Freya.
Now, Freya’s impression of Connor had changed drastically. She knew that Connor was not what everyone had imagined him to be.
However, Freya knew it was not easy to explain Connor’s situation to Maya and others, so she did not say much.
“Priscilla, let’s go eat. I’ll send you back to the hotel after dinner, okay?” Freya ignored Maya and turned to Priscilla.
“Alright, I came here to hang out with you anyway. I’ll follow your arrangements!” Priscilla replied with a smile.
“Alright then, let’s eat something first, and welcome back!” Freya nodded lightly, then turned around and walked toward the Mercedes-Benz.
“Yay! Food! I’m starving!” When Maya heard that they were going to eat, she was also very excited. She shouted happily and followed Freya into the Mercedes-Benz.
A moment later, Connor and the others got into Freya’s Mercedes-Benz.
As Connor was unfamiliar with the roads in the area, he sat in the passenger seat while Freya drove.
After the car started, Maya sat in the back seat and looked at Connor. She suddenly remembered that she had met Connor at the Immortal Lake Villa, so she asked Connor softly, “Connor, Immortal Lake Manor is closed. How can you still enter? Are you working at the Immortal Lake Manor now?”
“Work?”
When Connor heard Maya’s question, he was stunned.
“That’s right. Immortal Lake Manor said it would be closed for a break the other day. The staff chased out all the guests. You must be working there, right?” Maya said.
She didn’t believe someone like Connor would be a VIP of Immortal Lake Manor.
“I’m not working there. 1 was invited to the party!”
Since Freya already knew the relationship between Connor and Titus, Connor didn’t need to hide this anymore.
“You were invited to the party?”
When Maya heard Connor’s explanation, she exclaimed in surprise. Her expression was one of disbelief.
She stared at Connor and shouted, “Connor, why are you so good at bragging? Do you know what kind of place Immortal Lake Manor is? How could someone like you attend the Immortal Lake Manor party? Not to mention you, even my father is not qualified to participate…”
“What does it have to do with me whether your father is qualified to participate?” Connor replied with some disdain.
“You…”
Maya was instantly speechless. Then, she said agitatedly, “People like you are disgusting. It’s fine if you’re just poor, but you like to brag so much. Freya is so unlucky to be with someone like you. I must ask my grandfather to cancel the engagement between you!”
“Maya! Shut up!”
Freya’s expression changed drastically when she heard this. She hurriedly shouted at Maya coldly.
“Freya, what? 1 heard Immortal Lake Manor was throwing a very exclusive party. Those who could attend the party are all famous figures in Porthampton. How can Connor be qualified to enter? He was surely just a waiter there. That was why he could enter!” Maya shouted.
“Maya, Connor is not bragging. He is indeed qualified to attend the Immortal Lake Manor party!” Freya said to Maya seriously.
“How could he be qualified?”
When Maya heard Freya’s answer, she could not help but be momentarily stunned. A hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.
“Connor is friends with the owner of Immortal Lake Manor, Titus Jenkins, so 1 think it’s normal for Connor to attend the party!” Freya replied indifferently.
Immortal Lake Manor was very famous in Porthampton. It was a household name. Therefore, Freya naturally knew that the general manager of Immortal Lake Manor was Titus Jenkins, not to mention the relationship between Titus and Connor.
Priscilla, who had been silent all this while, couldn’t help but turn and look at Connor again after hearing this.
Connor was so young, yet he knew the owner of Immortal Lake Manor, Titus Jenkins. This was obviously abnormal, so she suspected Connor’s identity might not be as simple as it seemed.
“Connor, you big liar, you even lied to my cousin? Tell me, what lie did you tell my cousin about knowing the general manager of the Immortal Lake Manor? You’re just a poor loser. How could you know that kind of person?” Maya suddenly pointed at Connor and shouted..
