Chapter 262
Freya would surely rue the day she didnโt cling tighter to the Sutton family, the mighty oak tree of social stature and power.
Meanwhile, in the bustling confines of Sutton Group, Kieran emerged from the conference room, his strides confident and purposeful, only to find Flavia perched in his office. His brow furrowed in displeasure at the sight.
โWho let you in?โ he demanded in an icy tone.
โNo one was around, so I walked in,โ Flavia replied, her voice laced with a carefree chuckle.
Across the desk was an array of dishes Flavia had prepared. It was a hearty lunch comprising three dishes and a soup, all seeming quite lavish for a midday meal.
โI wasnโt sure what you liked, Mr. Sutton, so I prepared several. Hope it suits your taste,โ Flavia said, approaching him.
But Jarrett stepped in before she could get closer, effectively blocking her path. โMs. Miller, Mr. Sutton is exhausted and needs to rest. Please leave now.โ
โWhat do you mean? When I arrived, you told me to leave, and now, after waiting for half an hour, youโre asking me to leave again? Are you deliberately making things difficult for me?โ Flaviaโs brows knitted together in visible annoyance.
Kieran, however, walked over to his desk, dialed a number on the desk phone, and spoke in a detached tone, โCome up now.โ He hung up abruptly, not giving Flavia a chance to argue.
Seeing Kieranโs cold expression, Flavia suddenly felt a rush of panic.
โI dislike people entering my office without my knowledge, and even more so when they litter my desk withโฆ garbage,โ Kieran stated coldly.
โWhat did you say?โ Flaviaโs face flushed with humiliation. โI cooked for the first time for someone. Donโt you think youโre being a bit too harsh?โ
Kieran remained emotionless, signaling the security guards who had just arrived. โEscort her out,โ he ordered.
โYes, Mr. Sutton,โ they acknowledged, approaching Flavia to lead her away.
Flaviaโs complexion turned ashen. โKieran! What is the meaning of this? I am your fiancรฉe. How can you treat me this way?โ
Her cries caught the attention of others in the office, quickly making her the subject of office gossip.
โThought Ms. Miller had Mr. Sutton all figured out, but it looks like sheโs another joke.โ
โShe canโt handle this? Sheโs no match for Ms. Dawson, then.โ
โGuess Ms. Miller is out of the picture now.โ
Whispers filled the air as Kieran glanced disdainfully at the desk laden with Flaviaโs efforts and instructed Jarrett, โClean this up.โ โRight away, Mr. Sutton.โ Jarrett swept the dishes into the trash can with practiced ease, which the security promptly removed.
