The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday

Chapter 115

"Kieran, chill out, will you?" Eloise grabbed Kieran's arm and turned to Preston with an apologetic look. "Mr. Tyler, I'm so sorry. I bet you had no idea about Ms. Dawson's... you know, her ties."

Yeah, who didn't know Freya was Kieran's fiancée? But since Kieran's heart seemed to belong to Eloise, Freya was nearly invisible to everyone.

But everyone seemed to forget. Parading around with someone else's fiancé was not just tacky. It was homewrecker territory.
