Chapter 106 Freya’s Inescapable Reality
Finished
Nathaniel was undeniably attractive. Even in his casual demeanor, he exuded the charisma of a movie protagonist.
It was likely his good looks that had ensnared Abigail. How could a man like him be easily tethered by the bonds of matrimony?
Abigail was asking for too much.
Freya offered a faint smile. “Yes, she is indeed superior to me. After all, not everyone can be your plaything. But I’m intrigued. Don’t you ever plan to switch your toys?”
Nathaniel was taken aback by Freya’s audacity to jest, especially after he had been on the phone with another woman.
He felt a sudden discomfort. Freya was disrupting his control, and he didn’t like it.
His initial interest in her evaporated instantly. He leaned in close to Freya’s ear, his teeth gritted. “I have a penchant for nostalgia. Even if I grow weary of the game, I’ll find a place to confine you.”
Freya managed to suppress her mocking smile. A fleeting look of terror flashed in her eyes before disappearing.
As Nathaniel held her, she dared not move. They were so close that they could hear each other’s heartbeats.
Soon, Nathaniel released her, pushed her away, and rose to his feet without sparing her a glance. He strode out of the study to retire in the adjacent guest bedroom, leaving the master bedroom to Freya.
Freya had been occupying the master bedroom these days. She returned to her room, feeling sweaty, and collapsed onto the bed.
How can I meet Peyton? How can Nathaniel let me go? Should I try to win his favor, court him, or submit?
Freya slowly closed her eyes. Since he claimed to be nostalgic, she still had a chance to regain control of the situation.
Freya woke up late the next day and descended to the dining room for breakfast as usual. Ms. Lovett had prepared pasta, biscuits, fried eggs, rose sauce, and a fruit salad.
Ms. Lovett’s Truenia meal was delectable, and the soup was equally delightful.
As Freya entered the dining room, she was taken aback. Previously, only she, Ms. Lovett, and Higgins would be present in the dining room.
The bodyguards had their meals separately and did not dine in the villa.
So, Freya would assist Ms. Lovett with the cooking and packing every day. She would lend a hand wherever she could and even engage in friendly chats with Ms. Lovett.
At this moment, Ms. Lovett and Higgins stood nervously to one side. Nathaniel was already seated,

strained.
After her previous failed escape attempt, Freya knew she had no chance of escaping again. Unless Nathaniel chose to release her, she would remain ensnared in his grasp indefinitely.
“Good morning. Mr. Morgan,” Freya greeted Nathaniel, her voice hoarse.

Nathaniel looked weary. He appeared as though he hadn’t slept well the previous night. His eyelids were slightly swollen, but it wasn’t overly noticeable.
Nathaniel continued to eat his pasta and sandwich, not sparing Freya a glance. He merely gestured towards
a seat on one side.
Freya sat down and began to eat the food Ms. Lovett had served her. She had no appetite but forced herself to eat nonetheless.
The dining room was eerily silent, and Nathaniel felt a growing irritation.
He had confined Freya here, expecting everything to remain as it was before. But he knew their past was irrevocably altered.
The Freya of the past would chatter during breakfast, stuff sandwiches into his mouth, and playfully pinch his face. But now, she was docile, and Nathaniel found himself inexplicably annoyed.
“Have you finished eating?” Nathaniel asked, his tone laced with irritation. He tried to mask his inner turmoil.
