Chapter 206

When Freya casually draped her hand over that guy’s shoulder, Kieran’s gaze turned icy enough to send shivers down your spine. The guy, under the weight of Kieran’s stare, edged closer to Freya, seeking some kind of refuge. “Hey sweetie, who’s this guy?”

“You don’t know who he is?”

Freya, with a playful lift of her eyebrow, said, “The big boss of The Sutton Group, my fiancé.”

Upon recognizing Kieran, the guy tensed up. The others in the private room could feel trouble brewing. They were actually trying to charm Mr. Sutton’s fiancée!

Freya, unbothered, quipped, “Better skedaddle while you can.”

But the guy was too shocked to grasp the lifeline Freya threw. The next second, Kieran, barely containing his anger, barked, “Fuck off!”

That was their cue to bolt. Luna, worried Kieran might not be bluffing, attempted to speak up for Freya. But before she could get a word out, Silas pulled her aside, shushing, “Zip it! This isn’t your circus.”

The door to the private room closed with a definitive thud. Freya shrugged helplessly, “Mr. Sutton, we’re all here to have a good time. I don’t poke my nose into your business. Why fuss over mine?”

Kieran’s eyes lingered on Freya, who was dressed the same as she had been earlier in the day. The alcohol had flushed her skin, and her lips looked as tantalizing as ripe berries, impossible to ignore.

Outside, Kieran avoided contact with women, maintaining a strict stance on interactions with the opposite sex. No woman but Eloise had come close to Kieran in all these years. That’s where his depth of feeling lay.

But on the professional front, Kieran was meticulous. Coming to Eclipse Lounge meant business, and business called for a process. Plus, with Silas by his side, it was likely they had a few girls in the room. But Kieran wouldn’t touch.

Indeed, at Freya’s insinuation, Kieran found himself at a loss for words. He hadn’t given them a second glance. But Freya wasn’t just looking; she was touching.

“Are their abs really that great to touch?”

“Absolutely!” Freya’s response came with utter certainty. Good to touch. And… the feeling was exceptional.

In her past life, Freya had kept herself just for Kieran, not sparing other men a second glance. Now, she felt like she was wasting her life away. With so many attractive men in the world, she hung onto Kieran like a lifeline. If she ended up with nothing, she had only herself to blame.

Kieran, fighting back his…
