Chapter 183 Where Did You Get the Insider Information?
Freya laughed. Her “indulgence” was actually to make Sarah happy.
Ryan on the TV had a gentlemanly and elegant look on his face as he was being interviewed before the
party.
He was wearing a black suit with silver dark patterns embroidered on it, looking elegant and noble.
“Ryan is really handsome. He can pull off this kind of clothes. If an ordinary person wore it, they would definitely look like they belong in a choir.”
Ashley looked at the TV, her eyebrows curved. “He looks decent.”
Aunt Ashley has a unique way of complimenting people, Freya thought.
Halfway through the party, a close-up of Ryan’s face appeared on the screen.
Walter, the butler, hurriedly ran in from outside the door then.
“Bad news, Old Mrs. Marshall. Ernie Porter is here!”
Sarah instantly frowned. “So what if he is here? Tell the security not to let him in. We’ve already made it clear to him that the Marshalls and the Porters have nothing to do with each other!”
However, Walter anxiously informed, “But he’s already inside. Old Mrs. Marshall. Ernie Porter drove straight into the gate and barged in!”
Freya’s face turned serious as she stood up in the room.
Noah, too, turned cold as a sense of oppression oozed out of him.
“Mom, Sylvia, Ashley, take Frey back to the room first.
Freya caressed her belly as a cold light flashed in her eyes. “Uncle Noah, we can’t leave. Ernie will think that the Marshalls are afraid of him if we do! If he dares to intrude into our house, he won’t be able to leave so easily!”
Worried, Ashley looked at Freya’s bulging belly. “You’re not wrong, Frey, but it’s enough for me and your uncle to stay here. If anything happens while you’re with child… This won’t do. You have to go back.”
Sylvia knew about Freya’s skills, but she was still worried, especially since Freya was in the late stages of her pregnancy. “Frey, listen to your aunt and go back with your grandmother first.”
Before Freya could respond, the screeching sound of brakes could already be heard.
Ernie had a ferocious look on his face as he rushed in like a madman. “Noah Marshall, you tried to set me up, didn’t you? That place is not a gold mine!”
The Marshalls’ security had gathered in the living room, ready to take action.
Even so, Ernie paid no attention and charged toward Noah like he had lost his mind.
He ended up being pushed back by the bodyguards. But still, he kept charging forward and getting pushed
back
As if his anger had dissipated along with his physical strength, Ernie sat on the ground, his eyes bloodshot. “Why did you do this to me? Why?!”
Noah’s face turned cold. “Ernie, I don’t know anything about a gold mine, but you drove into my house and even tried to hurt us. I’ve already called the police,”
Ernie kept sitting there and panting heavily.
His gaze soon shifted from Noah to Freya. “Isn’t there a gold mine? Why else would she and the Monaghan Group accept that piece of land?!”
Freya sat in a chair, calmly picking at a plate of dried fruits and nuts before taking out a walnut.
“When did I say I wanted that piece of land?” Freya smiled. “Where did you get this insider information?”
Insider information?
Ernie clenched his fists as he felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.
Freya was right; it was insider information. After all, neither the Kaufmanns nor the Monaghans had made any official statements or clarified the rumors.
After Ernie connected all the dots, he couldn’t contain his anger. “Noah, you were the one who set me up. weren’t you? You knew that I definitely wanted to trick you with that land, so you accepted it and then schemed to deceive me out of that ten billion, right?”
Noah sneered, “You’re crazy, Ernie. It’s best for you to leave my house now!”
Sarah’s face turned cold. “Leave! Don’t dirty my house!”
Ernie sat in place for a while before he shook his head. “No, you’re not that smart. It’s her!”
He gritted his teeth and turned to Freya. “It was you who deliberately schemed this! You were the one who wanted to take revenge for the Marshalls, so you made me believe that there was a gold mine on that piece of land!”
Freya raised an eyebrow. “You must be mentally ill. I heard from my uncle that you bought that land because your father’s spirit came to you. What’s all this talk about a gold mine? I don’t understand.”
Something came to mind when Noah heard Freya’s words.
He furrowed his brows. “Ernic, I still have the surveillance video of us signing the contract. If you feel like you’ve been tricked, I can release that video now and let the people of Vroria judge. The police can see if I tricked you.”
Ernie was stunned. Surveillance video?
The video of me kneeling and crying while hugging Noah’s legs?
The video where I said that my father’s spirit has come and that I want to buy back that piece of land because my father tricked the Marshalls?!
Ernie gritted his teeth. He had gone to great lengths to deceive Noah that day.
If Noah released the video, the whole of Caltun would see him kowtowing to the Marshalls. They would
witness his humiliation!

He wouldn’t care about losing face if there really was a gold mine on that land.
But now, he wasn’t getting anything!
The total assets of the Porter family were only five billion dollars. This time, he had taken the untouched three hundred billion from the Marshalls and used all of the Porter Group’s liquid assets to get an additional ten billion dollars!
“Noah, please…” Ernie suddenly collapsed on the ground. “Noah, please help me. I don’t ask for anything else. Can you return the ten billion dollars to me? It’s all of the Porter Group’s liquid assets. The company won’t be able to operate without that money. Things are gonna get bad!”
With a panicked look on his face, he wanted to go and cling to Noah’s legs and plead. However, he was stopped before he could do that.
Ernie continued to wail, “Noah, Sylvia, we used to play together when we were young. Please say something. Mrs. Marshall. My mother used to say that you were her best friend, and you used to go shopping together when you were young
Ernie rambled on about their past.
Freya frowned slightly at that. At this point, Ernie should understand once he had calmed down that his vicious and malicious nature had been completely exposed.
Not to mention talking about the past, it would be useless even if he kowtowed to the Marshalls.
After all, Ernie was someone who almost caused the downfall of the Marshalls and signed a contract again before eagerly declaring that he would make Noah kowtow to him…
No one would help him.
But Ernie was desperate. He couldn’t think rationally. He was probably hoping for a miracle to happen.
A miracle like the Marshalls to be idiots.
Freya let out a small sigh.
People who were desperate like this were the most terrifying. As she would be leaving Vroria tomorrow, she was worried about the Marshalls.
In the end, her family mainly consisted of her grandmother, uncle, aunt, and Ryan and Melissa.
There were three generations of only five people.
Freya took out the black card from her pocket. “Here’s your 10 billion dollars.”
Ernie’s eyes widened as he gawked at Freya in shock.
“Miss Kaufmann! Thank you, thank you!”
Freya tossed the black card in front of Ernie. “Now that you have what you want, get lost.”
Noah immediately blew his top and looked at Freya. “Frey!”
