Micah instinctively looked at Freya. Her clear eyes radiated determination.
He knew she did not have the capability to orchestrate something like this, and he had already confirmed with Mr. Joker that it was just a local gang causing trouble.
Pressing his lips together, Micah spoke softly, "I believe you, but I don’t have feelings for you."
Freya’s expression remained resolute, undeterred by his words. "You keep saying that, Micah. I’ve already told you what I want."
A month was not a long time. But before Micah could respond, Freya gave a light laugh and spoke first, "Micah, I was willing to risk my life for you, and this is all you can offer in return?"
"You don’t need to use reverse psychology on me. The answer is still no."
Pretending to be her boyfriend for a month would mean the whole tribe would believe they were together. Breaking up later would only invite gossip and speculation. Something neither of them needed. It was better not to start at all.
Freya felt as if her heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand. She murmured, "Micah, are you really that heartless?"
She had put everything on the line, showing her commitment, yet Micah still refused to give her a chance.
Micah replied, "What happens after a month? When it’s over, how will people view you, or me?"
Freya's throat tightened, and her eyes welled up with tears. So, this was what he was worried about.
Steeling herself, she made a final offer, "If that’s what you’re concerned about, then after a month, I’ll create a scenario where it looks like I cheated. That way, no one will blame you. How about that?"

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me 🤯 Is Nina pharaoh's daughter?...
Meanwhile why is Nina playing hard to get? What else does she want from the man? I bet if Nash ever declares to kove the baby unconditionally she might soften up but lady just spill the secret he would be overjoyed!...
I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
Man forget Nina. Bring Nash to me. I'll be more than willing to be with such a handsome and rich++ husband. 😘😘...
