NovelEnglishChapter 38 "You called off the engagement at the engagement party, told the Jennings family to release that stupid news, and flirted with Ronan to provokeat the auction." In a moment of heated frustration, Kieran cornered Freya. "All this... this charade, it's all for my attention, huh?" His hand was firm against her jaw, his body inching closer.

Maybe we should... continue this conversation in my room?" However, Kieran was not amused. Pushing her away with visible disgust, he warned, "Freya, cut the act. Your little games are beneath you." Unfazed, Freya lounged on the couch, her words taunting. "Oh, con, Mr. Sutton. Don't play the saint. It's not new for a man to want one but keep another on the side, right?" But Kieran wasn't having any of it. His rejection was clear, his voice laced with a threat. "Freya, I'm warning you. Stop playing games. You wouldn't even be considered if it weren't for my grandmother's approval." Upstairs, Johanna eavesdropped the confrontation with growing panic. The Sutton family's favor was crucial to the Dawson family.
In desperation, she raced downstairs and pleaded with Freya to apologize.
But Freya played the victim, lamenting the failed engagement with a feigned sadness, even as Kieran's disdain was palpable.

Ever the mediator, Johanna tried to smooth things over, insisting gm Freya's undying affection for Kieran and urging him to reconsider the engagement for Audrey's sake.
But as Kieran picked up the scattered tokens of Freya's infatuation, the situation seemed more like a scene from a sithan a romantic reconciliation. With its engagements and broken hearts, the high society played out like a modern-day soap opera, with the Sutton family and Dawson family at the center of the storm.
