The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday

Chapter 83

Freya was on edge, her gaze fixed on the door.

The footsteps outside stopped, probably someone eavesdropping from around the corner.

Kieran glanced up and caught sight of Freya's delicate jawline. His eyes drifted lower until they landed on the gentle slope of her collarbone. Freya smelled wonderful. The scent was not overpowering or artificial but like a natural, clean one that made people want to draw closer. Suddenly, Freya yelled, "Mr. Sutton! What are you doing?"

Her shout was unexpected. Freya suddenly reached to tug at her blouse, and when she couldn't rip it, she turned her hands on Kieran's shirt. The sound of tearing fabric followed, and Kieran's expression darkened instantly.

"Freya, you..."

"Mr. Sutton! You already have Eloise! Let me go!"

Freya gave Kieran a defiant 'go ahead, react' look, but her voice was unexpectedly soft and overly dramatic.

Rather than getting angry, Kieran chuckled at Freya's self-directed drama. With a swift move, he flipped the situation, pinning Freya down on the bed. Caught off guard by Kieran's sudden dominance, Freya instinctively cried out. That cry gave Kieran the upper hand.
