Snapping back to reality, Freya saw Kieran's gaze fixed on her, a playful smirk coloring his tone. "Reya, come here."

Ronan stood rooted to the spot, his eyebrow arching slightly at the sight of Freya dressed in a maid's attire. It dawned on Freya then.

Kieran pressed on. "Hurry up, will you? Don't keep our guest waiting."

Following his instruction, Freya walked over to Ronan and pulled out a chair for him. "Mr. Beckett, please have a seat," she said, keeping her tone even.

Ronan played along and took the offered seat graciously.

Mr. Patterson's eyes landed on Freya, remarking, "Ah, this must be Ms. Dawson, right? I've met Ms. Dawson before, truly a beauty unparalleled."
