Chapter 223 Freya had no desire to interact with Johanna, but Johanna, reminded of the money she had given Freya, lost her cool. Her eyes ablaze with rage, she lunged for Freya's throat, shouting, "Giveback my money! Now!" With a cold laugh, Freya effortlessly pushed Johanna away, causing her to stumble and fall.

"Johanna, you were the one who said that a woman's got to marry someday. Consider that money an early wedding gift. We have a contract, remember? You can't just ask for it back." Freya, nursing her injured arm with a smirk, added, "Mr. Sutton calling off the engagement was a blow, sure. But what's done is done. Please, Johanna... try to keep your spirits up." Without Kieran as her future son-in-law, Johanna lost her influence and couldn't strut around as before. This situation suited Freya just fine.

Moreover, without Kieran, Johanna had no way to repay the enormous debt she owed.

As Freya ascended the stairs, Johanna, in a fit of desperation, shouted, "You owe everything to me! You went after your brother, and now me! How could you be so ungrateful? Listen here, I don't care what it takes, you're going to make Mr. Sutton take you back. Do you hear me, Freya?" Freya didn't offer a single reply.

Back in her room, Freya couldn't help but smile. It was her first day breaking free from Kieran, and despite the challenges, it felt like a new beginning.

Yet she knew Kieran well enough to realize he wouldn't let this slide easily.

No matter. She just had to weather this storm.

Just then, a commotion outside caught her attention.

"Mr. Sutton!" It was Johanna's voice that piqued Freya's interest.

Before she could figure out what was happening, Kieran was already storming up the stairs.

"Freya! Get out here!" With a loud bang, he pushed open the door to her bedroom.

"Mr.

Darging into a lady's n the middle of the night proper," Freya remarked, frowning.

Kieran was livid, and seeing the rage in his eyes, Freya wondered what had upset him this time.

The next moment, he was dragging her out of the room.

"Kieran! What are you doing? Letgo!"

Her expression darkened, particularly as his grip worsened the pain in her e injured hand. Kieran! Let go!"

But Kieran was unyielding, dragging her down the stairs. Freya stumbled and almost fell, but Kieran didn't even glande back. Under Johanna's watchful eye, he dragged Freya out of the Dawson residence. "Kieran! You-" Fet

Before she could finish, Kieran suddenly let go, causing her to fall She hit the ground hard, her arm n: scraping against a rock and bleeding.
