Chapter 1436: Visiting Jorge

After entering the villa, Maya started looking for Freya everywhere.

"Maya, why did you come?"

Freya emerged from the bedroom after changing her clothes, looking surprised at Maya.

She had just changed her clothes, her face was slightly flushed, and her bath towel was still visible in the bedroom. Maya was well aware of the situation.

"Cousin, did that jerk Connor bully you just now?"

Maya ran up to Freya, her expression agitated as she asked.

"Bully me?"

Freya was momentarily stunned by Maya's words, then embarrassedly smiled and said softly, "Maya, what nonsense are you talking about? How could Connor possibly bully me? We were both planning to rest..."

"Cousin, don't lie to me. Don't think I don't know. You two were definitely up to no good just now, right?"

Maya asked directly.

Freya was left speechless by Maya's question. Her expression showed extreme awkwardness.

"Did I guess right?"

Maya asked with a smile when she saw Freya's silence.

"Cousin, what brings you here so late?"

Freya asked, somewhat helpless.

"I don't have any specific reason. I was just worried that that big womanizer, Connor, might have done something to you. So, I'm here to protect you tonight. Let's go to sleep, Cousin!"

After saying this, Maya dragged Freya toward the bedroom.

With a helpless look at Connor, Freya followed Maya into the bedroom.

He was left standing alone, his expression one of utter frustration.

Maya smirked at him before leading Freya into the bedroom.

He understood that she probably had no intention of leaving today. He knew he had to wait and find the right opportunity.

The next morning, at eight o'clock.

Connor woke up to find Freya had already prepared breakfast.

While having breakfast, he kept stealing glances at Maya. He knew Maya was a student and wouldn't stay at home all the time. Once she left, he could finally do whatever he wanted.

"Cousin, I'm done. Can you take me to school?"

Maya put down her chopsticks and smiled at Freya.

"Sure, I'll drive you there!"

Freya nodded gently.

Connor's excitement grew. Once Maya was gone, he and Freya could finally be alone.

"Or I can drive her to school!"

After thinking for a moment, he suggested.

"No need. After I drop Maya off, I can head to the company..." she explained.

He was surprised by this. "You're going to work today?"

"Yes, our company is in talks with a few others about investments. I have to personally meet with them. If not for you, I wouldn't have chosen to work with foreigners. Once the domestic investment companies found out you're my boyfriend, they were eager to give money..." she explained in a hushed tone.

"You should've told me about needing funds. I can invest in your company!"

He quickly offered.

"My cousin doesn't need your dirty money. She wants to build this company on her own. If not for you, my cousin wouldn't have chosen to cooperate with foreigners. The domestic investment companies want to give money because they know you're her boyfriend. It's all about exchanging money for favors. I don't like that kind of collaboration. So, I found some foreign investment companies..."

Maya pouted.

"Isn't it good if someone gives you money?" he asked helplessly.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. They're giving me money for a reason. Either they want to meet you or they want you to do something. Basically, they're using money to buy influence. I don't like that kind of cooperation. That's why I've chosen a few foreign investment companies..."

Freya explained softly.

"I see..."

Connor nodded, not saying much.

He understood that Freya didn't want to complicate things with him.

"Alright, it's getting late. Let's go, Cousin!"

Maya urged when she realized she was going to be late for school.

"Okay!"

Freya nodded and then said to Connor, "If you're bored at home, you can meet up with your friends and have a meal. I'll be back after meeting with the clients..."

"Alright, you go ahead!"

Although Connor wanted to keep Freya, he couldn't find a good reason, so he could only agree.

A little while later, Freya and Maya left.

Now, the empty villa was left with only Connor.

With nothing else to do, he tidied up the villa a bit and then took a taxi to Jorge's house.

...

Although it had been a while since he had visited Jorge, he found Jorge lazily lying on a chair, basking in the sun.

If not for all that had happened, he wouldn't have believed that the greedy old man in front of him was the same person who once dominated a whole area of Oprana with his martial prowess.

"Old man, how have you been lately?"

Connor approached with a smile.

"When you need me, you call me 'Master,' but when you don't need me, you call me 'old man'..."

Jorge slowly opened his eyes and looked at him.

"Isn't it more friendly to call you 'old man' when I feel like it?"

Connor grinned.

"Have you been practicing your martial arts?"

Jorge asked as he looked at Connor.

"Yes, I've been practicing. I've almost mastered the 'Seven-Star Big Dipper Fist' you gave me. I just can't seem to get the last move right. That's why I'm here to ask you today. I followed the instructions in the book, but I can't seem to achieve any effect. Why is that?"

Connor crouched down, playing with Jabba while asking his question.

"The final move of this martial art requires you to comprehend it during actual combat. Even if I guide you now, you won't be able to grasp it properly. Moreover, different people have different aptitudes, so the effect of comprehending the final move varies greatly..."

Jorge explained in his calm manner.
