Jarrett immediately lowered his head, not daring to speak.
With a stormy expression, Kieran said, "It''s her damn fault! She was practically asking for it!"
"Yes, yes... you''re absolutely right, Mr. Sutton."
"She knew what she was doing. What''s she got toin about now?"
"Yes, Mr. Sutton. It''s all Ms. Dawson''s own doing."
Hearing Jarrett echo his sentiments finally lightened Kieran''s mood.
Then, Ss burst into the office, his face alight with excitement. "You guys will never guess what I just saw! I saw this stunning blonde hiding behind the sunsses!"
Barely containing his excitement, Ss pped Kieran on the back. "Man, Kieran, I thought we were buds! And here you are, keeping a bombshell like that hidden away in the office and not telling me!" The more Ss said, the darker Kieran''s expression became.
Jarrett cleared his throat lightly and said, "Mr. Vaughn, that was... Ms. Dawson."
"What? Freya?" Ss was shocked.
He thought he had misheard. Wasn''t Freya always the shy, reserved type? When had she ever dressed so boldly?
Already in a foul mood, Kieran frowned and asked, "What do you want?"
Ss was confused and replied, "What do you mean, ''what do I want''? It''s Eloise''s birthday, remember? Didn''t you say we were going to celebrate at Eclipse Lounge?"
Hearing it, Kieran suddenly recalled the importance of the day. Frustrated, he rubbed his temples. "This is all that damn Freya''s fault!" he thought.
"Alright, I''ll have Jarrett pick up Ellie."
Ss asked, "What about her birthday present? Did you get it?"
Kieran had been so preupied with Freya that he had forgotten the birthday present.
Kieran instructed Jarrett, "Go to the jewelry store, get a nice piece of jewelry, have it wrapped, and send it over."
"Right away, Mr. Sutton."
Ss cut in, "Man, Eloise isn''t just after any random piece of jewelry. She''s been dreaming about a ring."
The mention of "ring" triggered a memory in Kieran''s mind of the day he threw a ring into the pool, and Freya had dived in after it.
Kieran said coldly, "Ellie''s being ridiculous, and you''re encouraging her?"
Ss snorted, "I''m just speaking the truth."N?velDrama.Org content rights.
Kieran directed his gaze towards Jarrett, his tone icy, "Anything is fine, just not a ring." "Understood, Mr. Sutton."
Ss couldn''t help but add, "But seriously, Kieran, are you going to cut ties with Freya?"
