She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 219 Agreeing To

The Divorce

The moment Freya stepped into view, all eyes instinctively shifted to her.

By the window, Farrah stood still, a breath of relief catching in her chest and softening the weight that had

anchored her heart. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears. "Freya!"

Two bodyguards greeted Freya in unison.

Freya casually tossed them her car keys.

Then, turning her gaze to Felipe, she asked coolly, "Are you leaving on your own, or will | have to make you?"

She put a deliberate edge on the word "make", making sure he caught the warning behind it.

Felipe understood-this wasn't a suggestion. It was a threat.

For a brief moment, he toyed with the idea of pushing back, but deep down, he knew that if things escalated,

Freya wouldn't waste twith his guards. She'd cstraight for him. And he didn't stand a chance!

Right then, he bitterly regretted turning down Kristian's offer to train him in hand- to-hand combat. If only he

had-maybe he'd have a shot against her!

"Do you always have to be this much of a headache?" He was clearly annoyed with her interference. "This is

betweenand Farrah. Do you really have to butt in?"

"She's my friend," Freya said sharply, no explanation needed.

She wasn't the type to stick her nose in other people's . But Farrah mattered to her, and she wasn't about

to just sit back while Felipe pulled his usual stunts. It was only natural-women stood up for each other.

"If | were you, I'd go find the best damn lawyer money can buy." Freya's tone dripped with mockery. "Might help

you lose a little less embarrassingly in court."

Felipe seethed, jaw tight, but had no outlet for his frustration.

He couldn't rival her fighting skill, her status, or the way she commanded the

room.

"| just wanted to talk things over with Farrah." He tried to sound reasonable. "I know | messed up before, and

| cto make it right."

"Make it right?" Freya repeated with a hint of a scoff.

He missed the sarcasm entirely. "Yes."

"You think making it right means digging at her wounds?" she shot back without a flicker of mercy.

Felipe couldn't answer. What could he even say? Farrah had refused to return to him, so this was the only tactic

left to try and force her hand.

"| used to think you and Kristian were equally awful." Freya truly hadn't expected Felipe to fall this far. "But now?

| think you're even worse."

At least Kristian never stooped to these tactics. He'd only treated her like a fool.

"You go on about making amends and giving her the life she deserves, but all | see is your threats and cruelty"

Her words cut right into Felipe's chest. His temper cracked, "What gives you the right to judge me?"

"What do you even know about love?" Her question struck deeper than he cared to admit.

Felipe opened his mouth but found no words.

For once, he was truly shaken.

"So what-keeping Farrah chained to your side is your way of loving her? Spoiling her, shielding her, giving her

sillusion of happiness?" Freya's eyes never wavered. "And you call that love?"

"Isn't it?" he shot back.

"No." Freya's answer was steady. "You never once asked her what she wanted."

Felipe fell silent, stunned. He had arguments ready, but he knew-whatever he said, Freya would tear it down and

leave him looking worse than before.

"I want to speak with Farrah." After what felt like an eternity, he finally spoke again.

"Fine," Freya replied.

Ten minutes later, Felipe walked into the living room and sat across from Farrah. Freya remained close by her

side.

Freya had planned to give them space, thinking it best to step away. But Farrah had quietly asked her to stay.

"I've already said everything | needed to," Farrah said firmly, her confidence bolstered by Freya's presence. "If

you've got something to say, then say it."

"You're not givingeven a sliver of a chance?" Felipe asked.

Farrah didn't flinch. "No."

"You really don't want to be with me?"

"I don't."

"Why?" Felipe's voice carried genuine confusion. "I never meant to hurt you. I'm not going to let others sway my

decisions anymore. You'll always cfirst."

"I'm tired." Farrah's tone was calm but resolute. She never liked the extravagant life tied to Felipe's world.

He was handsome, intelligent, and exceptional at managing the company. But ever since their marriage, she'd

endured snide remarks and venomous glares from women who saw her as just another actress clawing her way

into high society.

She'd never spoken of it-not to Felipe, not to anyone. But through it all, she had been deeply unhappy. The world

outside was cruel, and inside their home, Felipe's indifference only made things worse. It had worn her

down.

Just a few days ago, when she found out that freya was a member of the powerful Briggs family, it felt like a

boulder had been lifted off her shoulders.

Until then, she'd lived with the fear that relipe might go after Freya-and he'd even braced herself to sacrifice

everything if he did.

She couldn't let Freya pay the price. But fate had surprised her.

"Let's give it another month." Felipe was still holding on. "If you still want a divorce

then, | won't stop you."

"No." Farrah's answer was clear and final.

Her resolve made him realize she meant every word.

He stared at her for a long moment, then finally rose from his seat.

As she watched him walk away, she felt a sharp ache twist inside her chest.

It hurt because she had once loved him-truly. But now, she knew what she had to

do.

"One more thing," Felipe said suddenly, stopping at the door.

Farrah turned her head slightly, her expression guarded. "What is it?"

"You don't need to go all the way to Jeucwell to file the divorce." His voice was tight, heavy with emotion

"Tomorrow, I'll have the papers drawn up and sent to you. If you have any conditions, let Freya know. I'T

include them."

He didn't want this divorce. But he understood now-dragging it into a legal battle would only leave a bitter

aftertaste. It was better to walk away now, while there was still a shred of decency between them.

At least she wouldn't leave hating him entirely.

Farrah was momentarily stunned by his words. "Alright."

"I'll speak to your parents myself." Felipe was surrendering everything, knowing

he couldn't go up against Freya and win. "You don't have to worry."

"Okay," Farrah said again, quieter this time.

Felipe glanced at her one last time, parted his lips as if to say something more-

but said nothing.

They locked eyes across the room, their gazes tangled in unspoken thoughts.

"Letbe clear." Felipe turned to Freya, his tone edged with warning. "If anything happens to Farrah while she's

under your roof, | won't let it slide."

Freya didn't dignify him with a response. She figured he just wanted to gain Farrah's attention.

Felipe swallowed the bitter sting in his chest, took a long step forward, and left-

like a man whose pride and fire had just been snuffed out.
