My Ex-wife's Hidden Personalities

Brisa drove the car and brought Freya back to the Kaufmann Residence.

Before they even entered the house, they heard familiar voices coming from the living room.

“Mrs. Kaufmann, I think this outfit suits you better. On the wedding day, you’ll definitely. outshine everyone.”

Sylvia’s soft laughter could be heard, clearly indicating that she was being flattered.

“All eyes will be on the bride by then. I still think this muted white outfit looks better.”

“The white one is a great choice too. It makes you look elegant and noble, highlighting your

best features.”

Freya’s mouth twitched, realizing why her mother had asked her to return for lunch.

When they entered the living room, they saw Matthew sitting across from Sylvia on the opposite sofa, looking like a well-behaved and sensible young man.

When Matthew saw Freya return, he seemed pleasantly surprised.

“Freya’s back.”

Sylvia looked up and said, “Freya, Matthew just returned from the Hartterre branch. You two should have a good chat.”

With that, Sylvia got up and walked toward the dining room.

Once Sylvia left, Matthew immediately dropped his act.

His previously proper posture became a bit more relaxed, and his lips curled up to reveal his snaggletooth. He had a mischievous smile on his face as he asked, “Have you missed me. Frey?”

Freya glared at Matthew. “You’d better behave. If my mom sees your true colors, she’d give you a good scolding.”

“Mrs. Kaufmann likes me a lot. She even praised me for becoming more mature and stable recently.”

As he spoke, his gaze shifted to Freya’s belly. “It’s been over seven months already. Our baby must be missing their daddy.”
