Chapter 412 The guests at the event couldn't help but notice the unfolding .

It was no secret that Kieran had been openly disdainful of Freya, but now, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he seemed uncharacteristically concerned for her.

Seeing the reaction of those around her, Freya, as if she had anticipated this, withdrew her hand and said, "Thanks for the hand, Mr. Sutton." Kieran quickly realized he had been played by Freya.

Given the previous standoffish attitude of The Sutton Group towards The Dawson Group, it led many to believe that the Suttons and the Dawsons were at odds. This had resulted in a dry spell of partnerships for the Dawsons. But now, with Kieran showing a softer side towards Freya, it was likely that many would be knocking on the Dawson family's door.

"Freya, are you using me?" Kieran was taken aback. He hadn't realized Freya was so scheming.

He had always thought of Freya as naive, but it seemed he was the one who was truly clueless.

"Mr. Sutton, isn't it true that we're just using each other? There's nothing wrong with that," Freya replied with a shrug.

After all, Kieran had used her in the past; it was merely her turn now.

"Don't think I don't know what you were plotting by invitinghere, trying to cornerinto a tight spot. It won't be that easy." Kieran's face changed at Freya's misunderstanding.

"Corner you into a tight spot?" She really had an imagination! His grandmother might have had such intentions, but he certainly did not.

Jarrett, standing by and seeing his boss's frustrated expression, couldn't help but interject, "Ms. Dawson, you've got it all wrong. Our Mr. Sutton didn't mean to..." "Didn't mean to cornerinto a tight spot? That's hardly believable, isn't it?" Today's guests invited by The Sutton Group were all wealthy and influential in Echo City, and with so much media present, wasn't it obvious they wanted to spin a narrative about her and Kieran? Freya was all too familiar with these tricks.

But she hadn't expected Kieran to stoop so low.

"Freya, letmake this clear, I have no intention of trapping you!" Saying this, Kieran stepped closer to Freya.

These past few days, he had been reflecting on his feelings for Freya. She stepped back, frowning, "Kieran I haven't done anything to provoke you. I chere today to play along with your act for the Dawson family, not because I have feelings for you." "But I have feelings for you." His words left Freya stunned.

"Didn't you know? Eloise and I never had anything. The child she was carrying wasn't mine." "...So what? How does that concern me?" Seeing Freya's indifference, Kieran, trying to keep his cool, said, "I turned Eloise away because I want to pursue you." Freya looked into Kieran's earnest face, seeing the sincerity in his words. Yet, the Kieran from her past memories started to blend with the man standing before her.

Whether Kieran genuinely liked her or not no longer mattered. What mattered was, she now loved herself more.

"Are you done?" she said coldly.

Kieran, taken aback by her indifferent tone, paused.

Freya continued, "I used to like you, but what can I do... I don't anymore."

Johanna and her son cast out, she was the Dawson family heiress, With her own career to boot. Why should she tie herself down for a man?

Freya and Kieran drifted apart, "Thanks for the hospitality, MD M Sutton, but the show's over. I should bid you goodbye." With that, Freya left the Sutton Group's gala to the astonished gaze of Kieran.

The crowd was left in disbelief.

But for Freya, a weight was lifted off her shoulders. She was set to take over the reins of The Dawson Group, serve as the heiress of the Dawson family, and act as the CEO of W Group. However, one thing was certain: she would never be Mrs.

Sutton. [End of Story]
