Chapter 116 "Yeah, Mr. Tyler." At those words, Eloise's complexion shifted. And seeing Hans about to approach, she swiftly ducked behind Kieran, her expression sour. "Kieran..." Kieran shielded Eloise, his expression turning icy as he spoke, "Freya! Enough already!" "Mr. Sutton, how is this my business? I didn't say a word." Freya claimed innocence but edged closer to Preston. Seeing this got Kieran's blood boiling. Kieran wondered, 'What's the occasion now? Is Freya openly disrespecting me?' Preston told Hans in a relaxed tone, "Did you not hear me?" "Yes." As Hans stepped forward, Eloise swiftly fixed her gaze on Freya, stating, "Ms. Dawson, I know you don't like me, but that doesn't mean you should let Mr. Tyler treatthis way! I'm Kieran's date tonight. Are you targetingor Kieran?" Eloise threw the accusation out there, blaming Freya for not defending her before Preston.

Freya wasn't foolish enough to do that. Speaking up for Eloise would be like insulting Preston, leaving her in a no- win situation.

At this moment, Freya looked innocently at Eloise and responded, "Ms. Harwood, I don't understand what you're saying... I'm not targeting anyone." Watching Freya's act, Kieran's gaze grew even colder.

But who could object with Preston, the host, about to issue a dismissal? Seeing Hans already beside Eloise, he gestured for her to leave. Reluctant to stay put, Eloise bit her lip, looking toward Kieran.

Kieran coldly advised, "Ellie, if Mr. Tyler asks you to leave, please do." "Kieran..." "Just remember, he might find it a bit tricky the next the tries to get into a Sutton family event." Kieran's final words backed up Eloise. Hearing this, Eloise felt a warmth return to her face.

Yes. It was Echo City! If Preston dared to trouble her, Kieran wouldn't let him off easily.

Though unwilling, Eloise heeded Kieran's advice and left. As she did, she glanced at Freya, standing by Preston. "The auction is about to begin. Mr.

Sutton, if you don't mind, please take your seat," Preston mentioned casually as he and Freya took their seats first.

The surrounding crowd fell silent at the scene. Who would have thought that Freya, once so attentive to Kieran, had shifted her focus? Seeing Preston and Freya depart, a chilling aura enveloped Kieran.

Standing by Kieran, Jarrett couldn't help but say, "Mr. Sutton..." "Ensure Ellie gets hsafely." "Yes, Mr. Sutton." Jarrett exited the banquet hall.

Meanwhile, Preston had seated himself with Freya.

Preston said, all chill, "I did you a big favor. How are you gonna thank me?"

"I'll agree to anything within my power, Mr. Tyler," Freya whispered. "But the Dawson family is indeed facing tough times. I fear I can only repay this kindness when I'm capable." "There's no need for complications. You can repaynow." Preston's eyes were on an auction item, "See that?"

Freya's gaze followed to a diamond necklace on display, her browo m furrowing. The necklace once worn by the Queen of Batorine?" Freya remembered how much Eloise

adored that necklace. In a previous life, Kieran had won it at a high price for Eloise. However the necklace had fetched an astronomical price due to Preston's instant infatuation with Eloise. Why would Preston suddenly bring up this necklace?
