Chapter 54 Farrah Welch

"What would you like to talk about?" Freya asked coldly.

Frustration bubbled through Kristian's veins as her cool demeanor inflamed his already agitated mood.

He closed the distance between them with one decisive step and blurted, "Let's talk about your plans after o divorce finalizes. Will you continue as Ethel Briggs's bodyguard, or run off with Trent Seymour?"

"You've completely lost your mind," Freya shot back, abandoning any pretense of politeness.

a paltry rate. For a supposedly savvy businessman, your arithmetic skills are surprisingly deficient."

"What happens when impulsivity strikes and someone swindles your fortune away?” Kristian retorted, scrambling for verbal footing.

Freya stated firmly. "Unlike some, I
