That afternoon, Frieda, Jonathan’s younger sister, rushed back from the north. Jonathan and Madilyn went to the airport to pick her up.
It had been a long time since Jonathan had seen his sister, so he was a little stunned when he finally saw her. Even Madilyn, who had only met Frieda a few times before, noticed how much weight she had lost.
However, Frieda didn’t look haggard; instead, she exuded an aura like that of a sophisticated woman. When Frieda saw Madilyn, she immediately smiled and ran over to embrace her. “Hey, Madilyn! I’m sorry for coming back so late. The project was at a critical stage, so I had to be there.”
Madilyn was taken aback by how tight Frieda’s embrace was and didn’t know whether to reciprocate. After a few seconds of hesitation, she patted Frieda’s back lightly and said, “It’s okay. We’re just glad you’re home. Everyone will be very happy to see you!”
Jonathan was a little puzzled by the enthusiastic hug. He then noticed his sister rolling her eyes at him. “Jonathan, you finally made the right choice and chose Madilyn. You weren’t seduced by Coralie in the end.”
Jonathan didn’t know what to say. That was a long time ago!
He was a little surprised by the change in his sister’s personality. She seems brighter than before and less narrow-minded. What had happened to her during her time in the north? Is her relationship with Shawn doomed to fail?
There were many questions swirling in Jonathan’s mind, but he didn’t rush to ask them. Frieda turned to Madilyn and praised her, “Madilyn, you’re so beautiful and kind. Besides, you’re a doctor who saves lives. My brother is so lucky to have you!”
Madilyn blushed at the compliments and quickly waved them off. “No, no, I’m not that great. Am I…”
Frieda nodded emphatically and then mentioned that she had checked in many things and needed to retrieve them. “I brought you guys a lot of wedding gifts. I’ve basically bought all the good things in the north. There are even some supplements that can help with the early conception of a child.”
Frieda’s personality transformation had turned her into a completely different person. In the past, she wasn’t this lively to cause both Jonathan and Madilyn to blush.
She had brought so many things back that they couldn’t fit all of them into the trunk of the car and had to place some in the back seat. When the three of them returned to the Queen residence, Lucian and Roxanne had also arrived.
Roxanne was also surprised by Frieda’s change. However, Frieda seemed to have forgotten everything from the past as she chatted with Roxanne very naturally.
“Roxanne, I’m doing well in Horbah now. I’m also in the medicinal herb business, but most of them are cultured herbs. By the way, if your pharmaceutical company has plans to set up an agency in each state, can I fight for the spot in Horbah?”
Roxanne was surprised by Frieda’s business acumen. She considered Frieda’s proposal and nodded. “This matter will need to be decided by the board of directors. But if there is such a plan, I will definitely support you.”
Frieda smiled happily, rummaged through her pile of gifts, and finally took out a long box before handing it to Roxanne. “Roxanne, this is a tonic that I had a hard time finding! My mother told me you’re pregnant, so you can use it to nourish your body after childbirth.”
Roxanne looked at her husband, stunned. Lucian smiled and nodded. “Take it. Frieda means well, after all.”
