Chapter 190

Chapter 190 A Setup

However, just because Freya wasn't in the mood to talk didn't mean Felipe planned on keeping quiet.

Noticing her blatant disregard, he took a long, deliberate stride forward and stepped right into her path. "Can we talk?"

"Talk about what?" Freya wasn't exactly warm to most people.

"Farrah." Felipe let the name fall from his lips, his voice edged with urgency.

He had spent the last two weeks scouring the city, yet he hadn't found so much as a whisper of where Farrah had gone.

Now, Freya grasped the truth behind the old saying-birds of a feather flock together. Kristian was a jerk. So was Felipe.

"I've searched everywhere," Felipe said with a forced composure, though it was clear he was biting down on something bitter. "I just want to know where she is."

"I don't know." Freya's reply came cold and clipped.

Those three little words tested every ounce of Felipe's patience. "Don't try me."

"What are you going to do about it?" Freya snapped, her frustration bubbling over, with no real outlet. "Hit me?" That shut him up. He stood there, thrown off completely. Did Kristian have a thing for being emotionally steamrolled? Why else would he marry someone this formidable?

Felipe, a fully grown man, stood there at a loss-struck dumb by Freya's verbal onslaught.

He felt absolutely humiliated.

"I don't believe in hitting women," he muttered, trying to claw back some dignity. "I'm only here to ask where Farrah is. She's my wife. I have the right to know."

"And then what?" Freya countered smoothly.

"Where is she? Where have you hidden her?" Felipe's tone hardened. He was sure Freya had something to do with it.

Freya had zero intention of entertaining that. "Farrah is a person, not a misplaced suitcase. I'm not hiding her." "Then why is she gone?" His temper started to crack.

"You should be asking yourself that," Freya tossed it right back. "Why'd she leave Jeucwell? Have no clue at all?"

"You pushed her."

Felipe clung to that belief with maddening persistence.
