The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 66

Listening to Audrey's questioning, Eloise quickly said, "No... Mrs. Sutton, you've got it wrong. I didn't..."

Kieran protected Eloise. "Grandma, Ellie tried to mend things between Freya and me and genuinely wished us well. You've misunderstood her. She never aspired to be the lady of the Sutton family."

Seeing Kieran still speaking up for Eloise, Audrey couldn't help but laugh. "How can my grandson be so naive? A few words from this woman, and you believe her? Now I see why Freya insisted on breaking off the engagement! Ms. Harwood is so cunning."

"Mrs. Sutton, I know you have the wrong impression of me, but I didn't try to ruin the relationship between Ms. Dawson and Kieran... If you still misunderstand me, I'll stay away from Kieran."

Hearing Eloise make such a resolute statement, Audrey readily agreed, "Well, then, I'll have someone book you a ticket abroad right away, Ms. Harwood. The Sutton family will cover all your expenses abroad if you never return. That's all I ask!"

Eloise's face turned pale. She hadn't expected Audrey to agree to it!

"Grandma!" Kieran's expression turned cold. "Ellie has gotten used to living here. She doesn’t want to go abroad. Grandma, you really don’t need to worry about this."

With that, Kieran took Eloise by the arm and left the lounge.

Seeing her grandson defy her for a woman, Audrey was seething.

She took a deep breath and turned to Freya, saying, "Freya, I know you've been wronged. Rest assured. I will look after you. No one will do you wrong."
