Chapter 165 Jarrett's words snapped Kieran back to reality. "What are you waiting for? Turn the car around now!" "Yes, Mr. Sutton." Without hesitation, Jarrett executed a swift U-turn.

"What?" Freya leaned forward to look out the window, but Preston added, "The car's long gone." "Why didn't you tellearlier?" "What for? Or did you want to take his car?" Freya shook her head. She didn't want to ride in anyone's car, but if she had to choose, she'd rather be in Preston's.

and her disheveled appearance, Johanna's expression darkened, "Did you mess around with sguy? Freya that's shameless! Do you know how many times Mr. Sutton called? How could you..." "Sneak off with sman?" Freya stepped closer to Johanna, and her gaze turned icy. "Johanna, you dare say anything." "What... what's with that look?" Johanna took a step back, confused by the turn of events.
Freya continued coldly, "Leland hadkidnapped to Echo City University, intending to assaultand forceto hand over the Dawson family's assets and business. Did you instruct him to do that as well?" Johanna was momentarily speechless. What? How could Leland do something like that?
