The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 163

As Freya turned around, she saw Kieran approaching them from a short distance away.

Kieran spoke coldly, "The affairs of the Sutton family do not require Mr. Tyler's intervention."

Hearing this, Preston didn't say a word. He raised a hand, and Hans withdrew his own.

Leland thought Kieran was there to support him, but Jarrett stepped forward and landed another punch on Leland before the latter could revel in relief.

The so-called friends behind Leland, who had never seen such a scene, got scared and turned to run. But Kieran's people were no pushovers, quickly catching up and dragging the two back.

Preston released Freya, pushing her toward Kieran. "Your family’s mess, you handle it."

With that, Preston turned and left. Hans followed closely behind Preston.

Before leaving, Hans gave Kieran a dismissive glance. The two clearly held no regard for Kieran.

"What happened?" Kieran asked coldly.

Freya was covered in mud from head to toe, her hands dirty, looking disheveled.

Pointing to the subdued trio, Freya said, "Apart from the one who passed out, these guys were out to kill me. They even tried to rape me." Freya spoke without mincing her words.

Leland's face went pale instantly.

Kieran frowned.

Seeing the panic in the eyes of the men on the ground, one of them quickly said, "Mr. Sutton, I had nothing to do with this. It was all Leland’s idea!"
