Chapter 131
When Kieran lunged forward, Freya braced herself and pushed against him with her arms. Kieran winced in pain, and Freya took the opportunity to shove him away, immediately creating distance between them.
After regaining his composure, Kieranโs face darkened as he accused, โFreya! Did you hit me again?โ
โYeah, I slapped you!โ Freya shot back defiantly. โKieran, are you deaf or something? I told you Iโm done playing these games with you. Why are you still bothering me?โ
By this point, Kieranโs expression was sour, but Freya pressed on. โAnd let me tell you, if it werenโt for you threatening me with the Dawson Group, I wouldnโt be wasting my time here with you. I donโt love you. So, back off!โ
โFreya, donโt make me force your hand!โ Kieran had intended to teach Freya a lesson, but still aching from the shove and seeing her defiant stance, he spat out coldly, โSo, you say Iโm using the Dawson Group to threaten you? Fine, consider it a threat. From now on, you Netter follow my orders or the Dawson Group will be doomed.โ
With that, Kieran turned and left Freyaโs room. Freya scrunched her face, confused by Kieranโs late-night drama. She wondered if maybe Kieran was just blowing off steam after a fight with Eloise.
So, Freya ignored Kieranโs threats and headed straight to school the following morning. When Kieran got up, he found no breakfast prepared by Freya, which only fueled his anger.
โWho made breakfast today?โ he demanded.
โThe housekeeper, Mr. Sutton. Is there something wrong with it? I can make something elseโฆโ the housekeeper offered.
โWhereโs Freya?โ
โMs. Dawsonโฆ Ms. Dawson left early for school,โ the housekeeper replied.
Knowing that Freya had gone to school sent Kieran over the edge. His grandma had warned her not to, and she just ignored her. Did Freya have no respect for the Sutton family at all?
Just then, Jarrett entered the Sutton Mansion. Noticing Kieranโs grim expression, he hesitated before saying, โMr. Suttonโฆ thereโs a meeting this morningโฆโ
โGet someone to bring Freya back from school!โ Kieran ordered.
โAgain?โ Jarrett was stunned. They had just gotten started, and they were already running back and forth to Summit University a bunch of times!
โDo it! Until Freya realizes she should be back here cooking!โ
โAnd the meeting, Mr. Sutton?โ
โPostpone it!โ
Seeing the vein throbbing on Kieranโs forehead, Jarrett knew better than to argue and immediately arranged for someone to fetch Freya from Summit University.
Meanwhile, Freya had returned to school. Her recent actions had quickly turned her into the talk of the campus. As soon as Freya stepped through the school gates, she became the center of attention. Even Luna, following closely, felt uneasy under the scrutinizing eyes. She tugged at Freyaโs sleeve, whispering, โReya, why is everyone staring at you like that?โ
It wasnโt just the students. Even the teachers were looking at Freya with curiosity and intrigue.
