Freya used to think that Kieran didn’t have any feelings for Regina because she had seen how indifferent Kieran was when he texted Regina, as if Regina really didn’t have anything to do with him.
But now, she couldn’t continue to think it that way. Last night, Kieran left after receiving Regina’s phone call.
She didn’t want to think too much about it, but even if she didn’t, she knew in her heart that he must have gone to Regina after receiving her call. And something must be up.
Moreover, Regina was still his fiancée, and they were going to be engaged next month.
What about her? She was at best his ex-wife, and she had been divorced with him before they even met.
Freya knew that she had decided to keep dating and to draw a line between her and Kieran. Whoever he wanted to engage or even marry had nothing to do with her, but she just couldn’t help feeling sad.
Since he already had a woman he loved, why did he act like he was deeply in love with her?
Could it be that he wanted her to be his mistress?
Thinking of this, Freya became even more depressed. She directly turned her face aside and avoided eye contact with Kieran.
Hearing what she said, Stephen became more confident. He raised his chin and said, “Yes, Freya would never be your mistress!”
“Freya, you should be with me. I was a bit of a jerk before, but I don’t have a fiancée! As long as you are willing to accept me, I promise, from now on I will only love you!”
Then he stepped forward and wanted to take Freya’s hand.
This time, he was confident. Since Freya knew Kieran was about to be engaged, she would have to choose another man and would certainly pick him.
Before he could touch Freya, his body was once again thrown away by Kieran.
“Coleman, who said I was getting engaged?!”
Before Stephen could speak, Kieran said again in a cold voice, “Get out! Or I'll break your legs right now!”
Kieran did not sound like he was joking at all. Stephen's body shook and he did not want to be humiliated in front of Freya. But there was nothing he could do now.
Stephen struggled for a while and walked out with that big handful of lilies.
Today wasn’t his day. He finally had the chance to meet her on a blind date, and then he met Fitz. Next time he must wait until Fitz was not around to go out with Freya.
The moment Stephen left, Kieran clutched Freya’s hand tightly, and Freya didn’t want to be so intimate with a married man so she tried to break his grip.
Kieran didn’t give Freya a chance to escape and clutched her hand a little tighter.
“Freya, I’m not getting engaged.”
He paused for a second and said, “Freya, I never wanted you to be my mistress. You are my wife.”
“Mr. Fitzgerald, don’t make fun of me, okay? The two of us don’t belong with each other. I just want to live a simple life and find an ordinary man to marry. Why can’t you just leave me alone?!”
