The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 230

Everything that happened didn't seem like something the old Eloise, who would never stoop to underhand tactics, would do.

"Mr. Sutton, let's not dwell on the past. Ms. Harwood was anxious when she heard you were at the hospital..."

"She was anxious, huh? She was just anxious to see how much I cared about Freya." Kieran's expression turned icy.

The surgical lights were still on, and Kieran sat in a chair by the corridor, waiting.

When he had carried Freya out of the police station just moments ago, he finally realized how much Freya meant to him.

Meanwhile, inside the police station, Preston sat calmly in a chair, listening to the wails of the women in the cell. "Keep going. Don’t stop."

He wasn't one to hit a woman, but that didn't mean his men shared his reservations.

Witnessing the scene, Bob nervously wiped his brows. It had been twenty minutes. Any longer, and those women would be dead!

"Mr. Tyler... perhaps, do you think... maybe it’s about time..."

Before Bob could finish, Preston suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Who ordered the hit on Freya?"

"It was... it was..." Bob stuttered, unable to name Kieran or implicate himself!

Finally, he nodded toward the cell, ordering, "Hit them harder! Don’t stop!"

"Yes, sir!"
