Who didn't know Ronan, fresh from his overseas exploits, was a high roller with connections to the darker sides of society? Messing with him meant bidding farewell to any semblance of a peaceful life. Seeing the scene unfold before her, Freya frowned, "Preston, what's this all about?" "It's quite clear. I'm standing up for you." Preston, who seemed to have materialized on a nearby couch, lounged casually, suggesting he wasn't concerned about breaking the law.

"I'm not crazy like you, nor did I intend to take revenge in such a manner." Freya scowled, already planning her exit from this debacle.

Preston's smile faded slightly.

But Freya was different. She didn't want his money, afraid of ending up behind bars. She didn't crave his power, claiming she wasn't as reckless as he was. So devoid of desires, why did she cclose to him in the first place? "Boss, with Ms. Dawson leaving, are we still going after the Harwood family?" "No." Preston's reply was curt.

Without Kieran's connection, where would she find another ninety million? Seeing Johanna's anxious face, Freya feigned regret. "Mr. Sutton doesn't fancy me. It's something we can't force, Johanna." "What did you say?" Johanna felt as if her head had exploded. "So, you mean... you mean the engagement is seriously off?"

Johanna was overwhelmed with panic, struggling to keep from m fainting If that was the situation, what about the ninety million loan? If they couldn't repay it...

Freya raised an eyebrow, feigning concern, "Johanna, are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?" "Don't touch me!" Johanna jerked away from Freya's hand, furious,

"You're a disaster! Mr. Sutton taking a Your liking to you was your good-fortune. What did you do to make the Sutton family call off the engagement?"
