Chapter 105

โ€œLook, youโ€™re taking a break from school, so letโ€™s not worry about school stuff anymore,โ€ Audrey, the matriarch of the Sutton family, said in a tone that left no room for argument. โ€œBeing a part of the Sutton family, even if you donโ€™t attend school, that diploma will still end up in your hands.โ€

โ€œAudreyโ€ฆโ€

โ€œJust handle it. Right now, you need to concentrate on winning Kieran over. Youโ€™re about to get married, after all. Sticking with school would just make you a laughingstock.โ€ Audrey said this with an air of authority.

Even if Freya was displeased, she had no choice but to agree. Without Audreyโ€™s protection, if Kieran were to act against the Dawson Group at this time, she would be at a disadvantage. Freya remained silent, signaling her consent.

Sensing Freyaโ€™s compliance, Audrey said, โ€œGood girl. You know I appreciate your obedience the most. Kieran has asked you to move in, which is a great start.โ€ Audrey patted Freyaโ€™s hand, adding, โ€œTo win a manโ€™s heart, you must first win his stomach. Your greatest asset is your cooking. Kieran has a hard time enjoying meals prepared by others. As long as you feed Kieran well, he canโ€™t stay away from you.โ€

There was a deeper meaning behind Audreyโ€™s words. Freya instantly understood what Audrey meant by โ€˜feedingโ€™ Kieran. It seemed Audrey believed something had happened between Freya and Kieran, so Kieran had asked Freya to stay over.

Freya smiled and said, โ€œI understand, Audrey.โ€

As long as you do. Then, Audrey handed Freya a small brown bottle, saying, โ€œUse this before you go to bed. Youโ€™ll understand its purpose soon enough.โ€

Freya glanced at the bottle. It wasnโ€™t until she left Audreyโ€™s place that she opened the bottle, detecting a sweet, cloying fragrance. The scent was familiar, just like the one she remembered from Kieranโ€™s room. It seemed that this fragrance was the reason behind Kieranโ€™s wild behavior the last time.

Audrey had a driver take Freya back to the Sutton Mansion. After Zackโ€™s example, the driver was cautious and afraid of saying anything to upset Freya.

Upon arriving, Freya entered the Sutton Mansion only to see a maid handing her a set of clothes and saying, โ€œMs. Dawson, Mr. Sutton insists you wear this upon your return.โ€

Freya glanced at the clothes and the maidโ€™s smug smile, responding with a cold laugh. So, Kieran planned to crush her dignity bit by bit. Looking at the maidโ€™s uniform in her hands, Freya walked over to a table and picked up a pair of scissors.

To the maidโ€™s astonishment, Freya cut the uniform to shreds. The maidโ€™s face turned white as Freya tore through the clothes, exclaiming, โ€œFreya! Have you lost your mind?โ€

Snap! A crisp slap landed on the maidโ€™s face. Holding her cheek, the maid looked at Freya in shock.

Freya fixed her gaze on the young, attractive woman before her and said coldly, โ€œUna, right? Since you addressed me as Ms. Dawson, you should know my standing. Who do you think you are to call me by my first name?โ€

โ€œYou!
