Chapter 186

Johanna nearly passed out on the spot for the second time. In the rearview mirror, Freya watched Johannaโ€™s meltdown in the Dawson familyโ€™s front yard, a smirk slowly forming on her lips. โ€œJohanna, do you think this is the end? No, this is just the beginning?โ€

Meanwhile, Jarrett couldnโ€™t help but whisper a reminder to the Sutton Group. โ€œMr. Sutton, arenโ€™t you going to check on them? With such a debacle at the Dawson familyโ€™s, Ms. Dawson must be overwhelmed.โ€

Who didnโ€™t know about the disaster at the Dawson familyโ€™s party last night? It was the kind of embarrassment that lasts a lifetime. Leland would never hear the end of it in their social circles. And as Lelandโ€™s sister, Freya would inevitably be affected, too. If Audrey found out about the Dawson familyโ€™s impropriety, Audrey would likely reassess Freya.

โ€œDoes Grandma know about this?โ€

โ€œNot yet.โ€

โ€œLetโ€™s keep it that way.โ€

โ€œUnderstood.โ€

Right after Jarrett finished speaking, Audreyโ€™s voice came from outside. โ€œKeep what from whom?โ€

Audrey rarely visited the office. She wouldnโ€™t come to Kieranโ€™s office unless it were something serious.

Kieran frowned. โ€œGrandma, what brings you here?โ€

โ€œIf I didnโ€™t come, your fiancรฉe would have stirred up trouble outside.โ€

Audreyโ€™s voice was serious as she sat in Kieranโ€™s office chair. โ€œGet Freya in here. I need to have a chat with her.โ€

Following Audreyโ€™s command, Jarrett still instinctively glanced at Kieran.

Kieran said, โ€œGrandma, this has nothing to do with Freya.โ€

โ€œNothing to do with her? The embarrassment is on her family. Such a big issue, and you want to hide it from me?โ€

The Ramsey family was a reputable name in their circles. If the Sutton familyโ€™s future daughter-in-law had upset the Ramsey family, this fiancรฉe would be more trouble than she was worth.

Kieran understood what Audrey was getting at. He had been hoping to somehow make things better, but then he heard the sound of high heels clicking outside.

Soon, the office door opened. Freya entered with a composed smile. โ€œAudrey, I heard you wanted to see me, so I came right over.โ€

โ€œYouโ€ฆโ€ Kieranโ€™s expression cooled. He thought angrily, โ€˜What is this situation now? Canโ€™t Freya see it? Yet, she has rushed over!โ€™
