Freya Hathaway is the only child of Frank Hathaway and Jesika Hathaway, Freya's mother who died when Freya was six years old. Freya's mother is a beautiful woman with green eyes like Freya's. While the red hair color of copper obtained Freya from her father. Jesika died of breast cancer for a year.
Frank himself does not know if Jesika has the disease because Jesika is very smart to hide it. Frank thinks Jesika is fine. Jesika is a gentle and not demanding woman. He accepted the situation calmly. When the pain hit him very stoically hide it.
Only a little Freya could see her mother feeling deep pain. Little Freya tried to help, and yet, she did not know what to do? Little Freya could only look at her mother with anxiety and cry. Seeing Freya crying, Jesika suppresses her pain and persuades Freya not to cry anymore.
Three months before Jesika's death, Frank learned of his wife's illness. That was the hard thing Frank went through. Frenk is even like a person who also has no passion for life. Frank loves Jesika so much that he never imagined, will lose a wife that makes him very happy. Frank even had a few weeks of drunkenness to find out his wife's illness. Jesika calms Frank down and reminds Frank that their daughter needs him.
Luckily after Jesika's death, Amber arrives. Amber Hathaway, the younger sister of Freya's father, does live with them in a rented house. Frank works on a farm owned by Horisson. Since the death of his wife. Frank is more diligent work, he like to forget the sadness by busy himself.
I don't know why Frank didn't want to get married again. Both Freya and Amber never forbade her from remarrying. Perhaps because Frank was once close to a woman, however, the relationship failed. The woman's family doesn't like Frank because Frank has a child. If Frank wants to marry the woman, then Frank has to leave his son. Frank prefers Freya over that woman. It seems that Frank decided not to marry again.
Since her mother died, Amber raised Freya, although the little girl was very independent and did not make it difficult for Maber to take care of her.
Eighteen years old, when he graduated from school, Freya worked as a waitress at a restaurant in Maidstone. Freya tries to make her own money, helping the family economy. At that time Frank had a traffic accident that made him unable to work as he should. Freya took over the responsibility.
Two years he worked there, the young master Edward, who spent much of his time in London, met Freya when she served him. Freya's naive girl, becomes misbehaved as Edward keeps his eyes on her. Who wouldn't misunderstand the attention of Edward, the charming handsome guy.
Freya also finds out from one of her friends, that Edward is one of the sons of the landlord in Maidstone who is an idol girl in Maidstone. Knowing if Edward was a rich man, Freya brushed off his expectations, it would be impossible for Edward to notice him because the man liked him. Moreover, Edward spent a lot of time in London, of course there will be many beautiful girls he met and there is no way Edwrad likes it.
Edward then invited Freya to get acquainted and approached Freya, Freya was very surprised when a week after they became acquainted, Edward proposed to Freya, of course Freya happily accepted. He would never get a chance like this again. The young man from a rich and respectable family proposed to him Freya like getting a jacpot.
Albert Horisson, against Edward's plan to marry Freya because according to Albert Freya is a girl who is not worth it. But Edward threatened not to marry as long, if not with Freya, it made Freya more like Edward. Freya thought Edward loved her. Albert finally gave up and blessed their marriage.
Freya is sure she will be happy, but Edward's rejection, when their first night makes Freya wonder? Where was the old Edward, who approached him gently? What was the reason for Edward marrying her?
***
Freya's bedroom door was knocked by one of the servants of the Horisson mansion. Amber opens the door, astonished at Freya's unusual room at this hour.
"What's wrong?" Ask Amber. He looked at the waiter, was there anything important that made the waiter knock on Freya's room?
Freya and Amber stared at each other, why is Dayton coming now? Were they immediately expelled without the heir to Horisson meeting them?
"Tell me, sir Drake, we'll see him soon." Amber ordered the servant. The waiter left Freya's room.
"How is it, aunt, I'm so scared and nervous." Freya paced back and forth while rubbing her two hands.
"Calm down, honey, we don't know what Sir Drake's destination is yet." Amber tries to calm Freya down, but Freya is still nervous and frightened.
"What if they ask us to leave the mansion now?" Freya glared her eyes and smothered her mouth. Afraid to imagine that. They haven't even looked for a home to live in, they're busy arranging plans to frame Horisson's new heir.
"Stop your unwarranted fear, baby, we don't know for sure what Sir Drake's intentions are right now. You're just making me nervous about pacing. At least one of us should be calm." Amber's right, someone has to control the situation. It is not even panic that will make them more depressed.
"We should go down and hear for ourselves what Sir Drake wants to say, at least we can beg for a while to be allowed to stay in the mansion. And hope we can meet Edward's sister. So that our plan can be carried out." Amber again.
"Auntie's right, I should be able to calm down, if need be begging not to be expelled as soon as possible. They have to give us our time. At least until we get a new place to live" Freya tidied up her clothes and lifted her nervousness.
Freya and Amber go down to meet Dayton. Step towards the first floor. For some reason both Freya and Amber walked slowly down the stairs. Maybe they want to calm the heartbeat that is pounding faster.
Freya looked at Dayton who was sitting on his back to them. Dayton sat in the living room of the mansion, in an armchair made of teak wood. Chairs with amazing carvings are brown and foam is red. The furniture in the Horisson mansion is still ancient. It seems like sir Albert is maintaining the concept of vintage mansion. What because they are descendants of nobles so that the furniture is only a few new ones, the rest even some are from the nineteenth century.
"Morning, sir Drake." Sapa Freya was friendly with a little nervousness to Dayton. Dayton stood up from his seat and faced Freya and Amber.
