Freya froze in place, the memory of their previous encounter still fresh in her mind. She had no choice. but to comply with his command.
“Don’t push me away. Freya. Please! Nathaniel’s words left Freya questioning whether he was intoxicated or simply spouting nonsense,
He embraced Freya tightly, a sense of familiarity washing over him and bringing tears to his eyes. He gazed at her longingly, aching to kiss her.
Suddenly, the shrill ring of the phone interrupted their moment. Annoyed, Nathaniel pushed Freya aside and answered the call.
It was Abigail. Nathaniel’s brow furrowed at the sound of her voice.
For the first time, Freya found herself appreciating Abigail. Fler interruption couldn’t have been more perfectly timed
As Nathaniel engaged in conversation, Freya attempted to seize the opportunity to slip away, only to find her wrist firmly gripped by Nathaniel. The pain was sharp and immediate.
Left with no other option, she stood by his side, forced to listen to his intimate conversation with another

“Nathan, my birthday is next week. My father is throwing a party for me. We’re inviting a lot of people. Will you come?”
Nathaniel agreed with a smile. I’ll be there. What gift would you like?”
Freya felt a pang of discomfort. Her slender wrist was still held captive by Nathaniel, while he engaged in a soft–spoken conversation with another woman.

Freya was acutely aware of her status in Nathaniel’s life. She was nothing more than a plaything to him. His affection and love were reserved for Abigail.
For Freya, he had nothing but harsh treatment and endless resentment. Perhaps there was a hint of nostalgia, but she couldn’t be sure how long it would last.
Abigail responded cheerfully, “Nathan, I don’t want any gift. Your health is the best gift I could ask for.”
Freya nearly laughed at Abigail’s words. Abigail was as insincere as ever. She didn’t want any gift? Unlikely.

Chapter 105 Freya Revels In Abigail’s Disappointment
Finished
Freya averted her gaze. She had no desire to intrude on Nathaniel’s romantic conversation with another woman. It was mortifying.
Nathaniel tightened his grip on Freya’s wrist and said, “Abigail, it’s late. You should get some sleep.
Just as he was about to end the call. Abigail asked hesitantly, “Nathan, is there someone with you?”
Nathaniel’s expression hardened slightly. “No. If there’s nothing else, I’m going to hang up.”
His tenderness towards Abigail was short–lived, but Abigail, growing impatient, continued, “Nathan, my father suggested we announce our engagement at my birthday party.”
Nathaniel fell silent, then replied, “We’ll discuss it later. Take care of yourself. Good night.”
Nathaniel ended the call. Even as a mere bystander, Freya could imagine Abigail’s disappointment. She couldn’t help but smirk.
“Are you pleased?” Nathaniel’s voice was rough, his expression unreadable.
Freya smiled faintly. “Yes, I find Abigail’s disappointment quite satisfying.”
Nathaniel’s expression shifted. He abruptly pulled Freya into his arms and gripped her chin. His gaze was menacing.
“Abigail is far superior to you, Freya!”
Freya was unfazed by Nathaniel’s harsh words. She met his stern gaze with a calm demeanor.
