The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 254

Crack! The sound of a sharp slap left one side of Kieran's face noticeably reddened.

Freya immediately pulled the blanket over herself, exclaiming, "Kieran! What are you doing, you creep?"

Jarrett heard the commotion and rushed in. "Mr. Sutton!"

"Get out!"

Jarrett hastily exited with a single sentence from Kieran, closing the door behind him.

"Why on earth are you sleeping naked in the middle of the day?"

"Give me a break! I like sleeping in the buff!"

"You... "

Knowing he was in the wrong, Kieran’s face turned even darker.

Pretending to understand, Freya said, “Oh, I get it now. No wonder you’ve been making excuses for me not to move out. You were planning to make a move on me!”

"Me, make a move on you?" Kieran laughed as if he had heard the funniest joke. "What on earth do you have that I could want to make a move on?"

As soon as he said it, even Kieran doubted his words. Indeed, Freya’s figure was better than many women out there. She was also pretty attractive.

It was just that Freya didn’t like wearing makeup. If she did doll up, she would be one of the rare beauties in Echo City.

"Anyway, Kieran, you've really crossed the line! You owe me a decent explanation, or I'm ringing the cops for harassment!"

"Harassment?" Kieran couldn’t help but laugh at Freya’s indignation.

Was she bringing up charges from decades ago against him?

"So, you love bringing up our annulment of engagement?" Kieran’s brows furrowed.

Ever since their annulment, he could tell Freya was overly joyous. That expression didn’t seem fake at all. She was genuinely happy.

"Yes. I’ve been looking forward to our annulment, Mr. Sutton. Didn’t you know that?"

"But before..." Kieran wanted to bring up how Freya used to chase after him.

But the words died on his lips.

Bringing up the past, Freya said without changing her expression, "The past is the past, and now is different. I’ve said it. I used to like you, but I’m turning over a new leaf and will not chase after you anymore. It’s as simple as that."

Listening to Freya’s heartless words, Kieran suddenly felt an urge to strangle her.
