Chapter 214 While watching Preston lounging casually beside Freya, Kieran's voice was icy. "So, you're breaking off our engagement because you've snagged Preston?" "Mr. Sutton, whatever you think, let it be," Freya said indifferently. "After all, Mr. Sutton, you've always seenas a gold-digger, right? Haven't you said it yourself that I'm vain and only out for climbing the social ladder? If so, of course, I'd aim higher. Mr. Tyler is much better than you. At least Mr. Tyler loveswholeheartedly. He isn't hooking up with other women, and he doesn't have any illegitimate children." Echo City had been buzzing for a while with news about Eloise and Kieran having a child and the rumors that Kieran pressured her to have an abortion. Kieran had never clarified those rumors. Everyone in their circle had taken for granted that the child was Kieran's. In her previous life, many had mocked Freya as nothing more than a breeding tool for the Sutton family. Compared to Eloise, the woman Kieran loved, she was a joke.

"Who told you I had an illegitimate child with Ellie? Freya, you..." Before Kieran could finish, Jarrett quickly stepped in, "Mr. Sutton, Ms. Dawson is just speaking out of frustration. Please don't take it personally." "Whether you had a child together, your love for Eloise is a fact. Since you love her so much, I'll step aside for you two and ask you, Mr. Sutton, to do the sfor me." Freya decided to lay all her cards on the table.

She was exhausted after playing the part of fiancée for so long, maintaining the relationship between their families. She would have canceled the engagement long ago if Kieran hadn't occasionally used the Dawson Group as leverage against her. She wouldn't have had any second thoughts. But Kieran was becoming more unreasonable.

Kieran's gaze fell sharply on Freya and Preston as he said coldly, "You want to break off the engagement? Fine, I'll grant you that." "Mr. Sutton!" Jarrett's face turned pale. There would be hell to pay if Audrey heard about the broken engagement.

Kieran turned and left the restaurant without another word.

Realizing she had laid everything on the table, Freya didn't feel relieved but felt weak in the knees. She didn't have the strength to confront Kieran. Why had she blurted it all out? en "Usingas a shield, Freya. You're the first to dare." Preston's tone was cold.

But Freya wasn't interested in hearing Preston's authoritative declaration She gave a weak smile and said, "Thanks to you, Mr Tyler, I'm... well, single now." With Kieran's temperament, after what she had said, there was no doubt he would break off the engagement without hesitation. Perhaps it was the best to cut ties with Kieran sooner rather than later. She wanted a clean break. Alas, Freya was too optimistic.
