Chapter 207 Freya instinctively tried to pull her hand away, but Kieran wasn't having any of it. Instead, he tightened his grip even more. "Answer me." Kieran propped himself up with one arm on the couch, closing the already minimal distance between him and Freya: "Who feels better to touch, them or me?" Freya's hand was soft, almost boneless, and holding it felt like the slightest pressure could hurt her.
Perhaps it was the alcohol talking, but Kieran suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to pin Freya down and have his way with her.
Feeling the scorching touch at her fingertips, Freya quickly withdrew her hand and slapped Kieran across the face, her expression darkening as she spat out, "Jerk!" The slap was neither too light nor too heavy, but it left a red mark on Kieran's face.

"What the hell was that? What did you just do?" Outside, Silas saw Luna following Freya's lead and running away.
Kieran touched his cheek, his expression growing darker. "Tell the boss, I don't ever want to see them again!" Silas watched as Kieran stormed out of the room, completely baffled.
What just happened? Luna was fuming, "Kieran is such a tyrant! He just doesn't want us to have any fun at all-and he even chased her away!" Freya and Luna caught a cab.
Both had had a bit to drink, so driving was out of the question. Luna asked, "Reya, he didn't do anything to you, did he?" "Not really, it was just... weird." Freya still remembered the warmth she felt when her fingertips brushed against his abdomen.
That's not right.
Shouldn't a normal man be disgusted and angry, eager to call off the engagement? What's with Kieran not even mentioning breaking off the engagement? "He's a control freak, for sure. He's out there cozying up with Eloise, and wasn't there a rumor that Eloise even had his child? And now Kieran turns around trying to control you! Such a loser, you're better off kicking him to the curb!" The more Luna talked, the angrier she got, as if she was the one wronged.
Freya massaged her temples, "I wish I could..." But did she have the means to do so? What was Kieran's background? And hers? Without Audrey and Kieran letting go, the Dawson family couldn't break off the engagement.

"Right! You could go for Preston or Ronan, I heard they both have a thing for you! They both like you." Upon hearing Luna's words, Freya paused, "Where did you hear that?" "That's what everyone in our circle says."
Luna pulled out her phone, scrolling through chats, and indeed, there were plenty of rumors about Freya being close to both Ronan and Preston.
Looking seriously at Freya, Luna said, "Reya, whether you choose Ronan or Preston, I think either is better than En Kleran." Freya forced a smile. Was there something off with this news?
Putting Ronan aside, Preston in his past life was completely devoted to Eloise. It was rumored that his move to Echo City was all sake.
What did that have to do with her at all?
