Rejected Mate's Redemption (Freda and James)

Mates 149

Chapter 149 Chapter 149 KAIDEN STIRLING “I think I should be apologizing. This whole thing… Safiya hating Freda, it’s mostly my fault and you are suffering for it,” I whispered. She looked at me. “I’d grin and tell you to shut up and stop blaming yourself but my lips hurt like hell. I’m gonna hurt Safiya for that, but that will come later.” She said, running her hand through her hair and taking a bite of the chicken nugget in her hand. She sighed after taking a bite. “This is so good,” she said through a mouthful and I smiled. I knew why she was best friends with Freda. They were both very quirky and free. Although I was a little worried that I had taken that from Freda. “Cole left Freda,” she said like I was supposed to know. I was filled with surprise. Even though I hated him, I knew that Freda would be sad about the fact that he left her and I wanted to know why. “What happened?” I asked, dreading that I was about to hear about Cole. That guy tested my patience like no one else (aside from Safiya) had. “He saw Freda leave with you that night… And she showed up at home late. We were looking for her and the whole time, he knew she was with you,” she said, taking a sip of her apple drink. “Why didn’t she tell him that nothing happened? Nothing happened between us,” I responded and she nodded. “I don’t think she wanted to give him any false hope. Even though nothing had happened between you both, she didn’t want to say it because he was right. She cares about you. More than she will ever care 0.00% Chapter 140 about him,” she said, studying my expression as she spoke. I did not want to let her see how much her words affected me. My heart stopped. And then started with speed that my whole body could not keep up with. I looked away from her so she would notThis belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

see how much her words were making me lose control. Freda cared about me. I knew that. I just didn’t know it was to the point where she pushed away a guy who clearly cared about her and could offer her the perfect life I didn’t give her. “She was really upset when he left so we decided to go out to ice cream. After we took our ice cream, Francisco wanted to go to the mall and neither of us could say no, so we went in. After we got a bunch of stuff, I took Francisco to the arcade to play games, but we left almost immediately because the machines with our favourite games were out of service. I saw Safiya starting to harass Freda and a crowd was slowly gathering.” She paused for a bite of her food and then sipped her drink from the cup. “She said I was trying to take you from her,” she started speaking again and then looked at me. “Take you from her? Boy, I don’t even like you,” she said playfully and despite my confusion at what she had said, I laughed. “Ouch,” I said and we shared a grin. “What did she mean by that though? When she said you were trying to take me from her,” I said, cringing at the last words. Safiya was such a child. I guess her brain stopped growing in high school. “Well, someone must have seen us go into the bathroom together and they thought we hooked up or something, and they 36.22% ||| 14:1700 Chapter 140 288 iVouchers told her,” she said nonchalantly. I cringed hard. She looked away from me. It was awkward for her too. Good. I did not want to be alone in that. “Freda was getting really upset, so I told her I would explain to her later but we had to leave. When we tried leaving, Safiya grabbed Freda. Freda pulled herself free of Safiya’s grip and Safiya was

pretty steady on her feet until we were almost outside the building. We heard her scream. I know Freda wanted to go back to help her and see what was wrong, but we had to leave. While I was driving away, people tried to hurt us… For ‘hurting the Luna”,” she explained and I could only stare at her. “While we were asleep, Georgina… That scheming b**h, she called me and said Freda’s dad was dying. That’s such a horrible thing to lie about, no?” She said, looking at me and I nodded vigorously. I did not have any words to express what was going on in my head. “What kind of stepmother is she anyway? Setting up the children she is supposed to be a mother to for fights. That’s disgusting,” she said, and I signaled for her to continue.
