Chapter 97

Sutton, isnโ€™t Audrey due back soon?โ€ Freya cast an eye towards Kieran, her gaze seemingly casual.

Kieran scoffed coldly. โ€œTrying to use Grandma to threaten me? How predictable.โ€

โ€œEven if it works, it works,โ€ Freya retorted indifferently.

The move was so unexpected that Kieran frowned. โ€œWhat are you doing?โ€

โ€œTreya, remember he shouldnโ€™tโ€ฆโ€

Freya tried to pull away, but Kieranโ€™s grip was firm. He said coldly, โ€œIf youโ€™re staying together at home to foster our relationship with Grandmaโ€ฆโ€

โ€œIf I find out youโ€™ve been spreading rumors about Grandma, I might make things difficult for you,โ€ Freya warned, her gaze unwavering.

Hearing her response, Kieran let go of Freya, his voice cold as he sneered, โ€œIt seems you play dirty tricks.โ€

Freya denied it. โ€œI told you I had nothing to do withโ€ฆโ€

โ€œDo you really believe that?โ€ Kieran continued, โ€œYou and Elle go to the same school. Reports on social media paint you as the future Mrs. Sutton. It wouldnโ€™t be hard to catch you getting cozy withโ€ฆโ€

โ€œWhat? Keeping me in the Sutton family is only going to bring you more trouble,โ€ Freya thought.

When Kieran stepped down to the living room the following morning, he saw only a set table. Frowning, he called out, โ€œLinsey?โ€

Linsey appeared, asking, โ€œYes, Mr. Sutton? Whatโ€™s the matter?โ€

โ€œHasnโ€™t Freya woken up yet?โ€ Kieran asked.

โ€œRight. Ms. Dawson hasnโ€™tโ€ฆโ€

โ€ฆgot a bit angry. Hearing this, Kieran got even angrier. โ€œStill not up? By this timeโ€ฆโ€

Freya would wake up fashionablyโ€ฆ

โ€ฆbefore dawn.

Breakfast was on the table. Kieranโ€™s expression was like ice. โ€œThrow out the breakfast. From now on, let Freya handle her own breakfast.โ€

โ€œYes, Mr. Sutton,โ€ Linsey replied.

โ€œWould that be appropriate?โ€

After all, Freya was a Dawson, a lady of high standing.
