The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 248

Nancy couldn't help but stare at Freya, surprised by her reaction. Why would anyone be happy about their ex-fiancé going on dates?

"It's all good, Nancy. Thanks," Freya said, feeling relief wash over her.

It looked like her stay at the Sutton Mansion would end sooner rather than later. It was time to dust off and move on!

Just then, Freya's phone buzzed with a new message.

It was from Ronan. She quickly opened the chat.

It said: [I'll send a car for you at noon.]

That lifted Freya's spirits. It must have been about the Southern Suburbs project. Discussing the project at the Dawson's or Kieran's was complicated. Ronan's timing couldn't have been better.

Freya promptly sent Ronan a 'thumbs up' emoji in response.

As noon approached, Kieran leaned back in his chair in the Sutton Group’s office, exhausted.

Before he could even take a moment to rest, Jarrett came in. "Mr. Sutton, Mrs. Sutton has sent a reminder. Ms. Miller has left. It would be rude to keep her waiting."

"Understood." Kieran's face remained expressionless.

He checked his phone for any messages, hoping for something personal amid the work-related notifications. Finding none, he frowned and asked, "What's Freya up to today?"

"Ms. Dawson? She's probably not going anywhere, just resting at home with her condition."
