The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 79

Audrey's voice was cold as ice. "Kieran, if you walk out that door, don't you dare return to this house again!"

Kieran froze.

Audrey turned to Freya and said, "Freya, cook something simple for dinner. I've got to run."

After that, Audrey stood up, went out, and shot Kieran a meaningful glance.

Soon, the Sutton family's living room was left with only Freya and Kieran.

"Why are you just standing there? Aren't you going to start cooking?" Kieran looked at Freya, his eyes showing no respect whatsoever.

"The house is empty, Mr. Sutton. Why put on a show?" Freya retorted, "If you’re hungry, maybe just order some takeout."

"You..."

Freya walked to the kitchen to start cooking, ignoring him.

Kieran snorted, "Oh? You’re telling me to order takeout while you cook for yourself? If you wanted to leave, why didn't you slip away while Grandma was out?"

"Mr. Sutton, who's being the fool here?" Freya's voice was tinged with sarcasm. "Audrey wanted us to spend time together, locking us in. Seriously, you think she'd let me walk out the Sutton family's door? I bet the front door is locked from the outside; there's no way you can open it."

Hearing it, Kieran, half in doubt, walked to the front door. Sure enough, when he tried the handle, the door was locked from the outside.

After washing her hands, Freya casually took some ingredients from the fridge. "Mr. Sutton, try calling for takeout now. Maybe that'll get someone to open the door."

But when Kieran pulled out his phone, he found no signal, and the house's internet seemed to have been disconnected, too.
