No Longer Lovesick After a Memory Loss

Chapter 213

Chapter 213 Don’t Go Too Hard

Freya had always treated Edward as a brother, so receiving his caring message warmed her heart.

After responding, she discussed the plans for their live broadcast on the weekend. She then scrolled through her social media feed.

There, she came across a picture that Melissa had just posted, featuring her and Hannah together.

Freya glanced at it for a while before setting her phone down to take a break.

Over the next two days, Freya lazily rose from bed each morning, and before noon, she headed to the West Geft Joint Department to learn about tenon-mortise structure with Brandon.

As the workday drew to a close, the master and his apprentice left early, each returning to their home.

Around three in the afternoon, Freya found herself leaning over a table, meticulously carving a piece of wood.

Brandon sat nearby at a tea table, leisurely brewing tea.

“You truly are cut out for this line of work. Your mind is quick and you can draw inferences from one another, Brandon said.

Freya finished the final piece of wood in her hands and blew away the wood shavings.

“Doesn’t that just mean you’ve got a good eye for apprentices?” she replied.

“Stop flattering me. You’re pregnant and still, come to learn every day. You’re dedicated,” Brandon remarked, eyeing Freya’s baby bump.

With all the pieces complete, Freya assembled them carefully to create a beautifully crafted mechanical wooden box.

As sunlight streamed through the window, casting a warm glow on her profile, Freya wore a satisfied smile on her porcelain-like face with its ink-black brows and eyes.

When Radley entered the room and witnessed this scene, a subtle jolt ran through his heart.

“Here comes Radley.” Brandon chuckled.

“Freya just made a secret box. Care to try solving it?” he suggested to Radley.

Radley nodded and took a seat next to Freya.

Curious to test her skills, Freya handed the secret box to Radley.

“Master, have you decided on the houses I showed you last time? Did anything catch your eye?” Freya -inquired, turning to Brandon.

“I have chosen two. One is a villa, and the other is a traditional courtyard,” Brandon replied. “Mrs. Lane likes the grapevine trellis in the villa’s courtyard, but I thought a three-story villa might be too big for the two of us. I prefer the traditional courtyard.”

“Isn’t it simple? If she likes the grapevine trellis, we can build one in the traditional courtyard.

“Master, you’re a carpenter. I believe you can build any kind of trellis.” Freya laughed.

Just as she finished speaking, a soft clatter resonated.

Freya turned her head toward Radley. The secret box she had worked on for three days had fallen apart. into pieces in his hands.

“You’re so fast. Freya furrowed her brows.

Brandon found amusement in her frustration. “Looks like you still have much to learn.”

Freya muttered her complaints, “He’s too smart. He solved many of your secret boxes in no time. The one I made is too easy for him.”

“Although it’s easy to solve, the craftsmanship is very intricate,” Radley added calmly.

They chatted for a while, and Brandon took out the photos of the two houses he had chosen.

Freya made a call to Ayden and requested the floor plans of both houses.

After looking at the floor plans, Brandon became more determined to choose the traditional courtyard.

“Let’s go with the traditional courtyard then. We can build a grapevine trellis for Mrs. Lane. The courtyard is larger, so we can transplant the trees in Lagresh,” Freya remarked with a smile.

Brandon glanced meaningfully at Freya.

He knew very well what she was thinking: she wanted him to stay in Caltun.

“Sure, let’s choose this one. Please take care of the purchase, and I’ll transfer the money to you.”

Brandon walked to the tea table, opened the drawer, and took out a card that seemed to have been prepared in advance..

He placed the card before Freya.

“There should be enough money inside to buy the house. Consider the rest as your tips.”

“How can I take your money to buy a house for you, Master?” Freya pushed the card back with a smile.

“I promised to take care of you and Mrs. Lane in your old age when you accepted me as your apprentice.”

Brandon raised his eyebrows slightly.

Without saying much more, he took the card back.

Freya sent the number and pictures of the traditional courtyard to Ayden and asked him to help with the purchase.

“Ayder is always efficient. If all goes well, you’ll be able to move in this week.”

Brandon nodded, and Freya turned to look at Radley.

He was still trying to assemble the secret box.

While the box was easy to solve, reassembling it proved to be much more difficult.

Radley’s nails were neatly trimmed, his fingers slender and powerful, moving quickly and skillfully among the wooden pieces. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

He frowned and found that there was an extra wooden piece at the end.

Freya’s mind instantly balanced out a bit.

“It’s not like that. She reached out and picked up the extra wooden piece. She took over the box, explaining the principles behind it to Radley, much like a master instructing a young apprentice.

Brandon glanced at the two of them.

While Freya was teaching seriously, Radley’s focus seemed to be on Freya herself.

Young people and their fancies.

Brandon clicked his tongue.

He turned on the TV in the office, found the show he was currently following, and continued watching it.

After explaining to Radley, she noticed that Brandon was watching the finale of “Moonlit Journey.”

“Is it already at the finale?” Freya was pleasantly surprised.

After all, “Moonlit Journey” was a TV show adapted from her novel. Although it had finished filming and started airing a while ago, Freya had heard that it was only being released one episode per week.

The director, Ben Mccarthy, had sent her the complete series, but she hadn’t had the time to watch it. She planned to wait until it was available online and then find time to see how the actors portrayed her story.

“Are you watching this too?” Brandon smiled. “Apart from the classic martial arts dramas, this one is quite good.”

Freya eagerly sat down next to Brandon to watch the finale.

As she had expected, Ryan Marshall’s acting was impressive.

Aya Cole fully embodied the essence of a martial arts hero.

While watching the drama, Brandon uttered, This series was directed by Ben Mccarthy. I heard that the Kaufmann Group invested in it. It must have made quite a bit of money with this success, right?”

Freya hesitated for a moment and quietly looked at Radley beside her.

Speaking of which, the original investor of this show was the Monaghan Group. However, at that time, Radley insisted on having Danna play the female lead. So, she had the Kaufmann Group replace them and invested in it herself.

“Yes, it did make some.” Freya smiled awkwardly.

Radley looked up at this moment. “The essence of this show lies in its mature script and compelling storyline. The real credit for the success of this drama goes to the novel’s author, Jean Birch.”

Freya felt a sense of satisfaction from the praise and nodded in agreement.

“But Jean Birch is quite mysterious. You can ask Ben Mccarthy to contact him and have him write a sequel

to ‘Moonlit Journey,” Radley suggested.

Freya thought for a moment. “Forget it, he may not have time.”

“Do you know him?” Brandon asked as he seemed interested.

“If you do, please introduce him to me. I think we might have a lot in common.”
