Chapter 71

The large office room was silent. Only low breaths could be heard from the two people who were staring at each other.Freya's eyes were curious as she wanted Aleric to answer her. Meanwhile, Aleric's eyes were sharp, staring at the woman in front of him intensely."Alpha, you didn't answer. Or you don't answer me?" Freya asked, gathering her courage again to show her boldness to the head Alpha.Aleric lifted his one brow. "Mate? I don't believe in mate bonds." His voice was sharp, but his tone was composed.All the colors drained from Freya's face. Her expression turned pale, the boldness she tried to show faded.Suddenly they heard the doorknob twist without permission, and the door swung open.Freya shoved Aleric's chest, trying to create distance between them.A man in full rage stormed into the office. His eyes moved around until they shifted on Aleric."Oh, Alpha Logan is here," Aleric murmured, shrugging his shoulders.His back was leaned against the desk. He folded his hands ac

Logan was taken aback. He looked at Aleric with a shocked face. "What did you say?"Freya was his fiancée. How could Aleric tell him to stay away?He turned his head to Freya and said, "Come with me if you don't want me to lose my mind. Let's go to Grandma right now and tell her that you regret breaking the engagement."Freya gazed at him with deadly eyes. "I'm not going anywhere with you. If you want anything, talk to grandma directly. I have said my final words to her."She knew Selina Vance had the power to control Hayes' family. So she did a really good job talking to her directly. Logan has no ways now, setting her free.Logan clenched his jaw; the muscles of his cheekbones tightened. He was losing from everywhere.He was in disbelief that Freya directly contacted Selina about this matter. There was no way he would lose Freya.He glared at Freya and muttered, "I will see you."Then his eyes moved to Aleric, who was staring at him with a sharp gaze. Logan shrugged his shoulders an

"M-Me?"Freya was surprised. Was he really taking her with him?Aleric frowned at her, watching her reaction. "As my assistant, you should be with me on every business trip."Freya blinked, nodding her head. If Freya were still engaged to Logan, he would never allow her to travel with another man.In the past, he went on many business trips, never once taking her with him. She used to feel upset watching Evica go with him. At that time, she never suspected anything; she was completely unaware. She was a fool who played in Logan's life the role of his puppet.A fresh smile broke onto her lips as she said,"Yes, Alpha. I'm going with you. It's my duty to be around my boss and work for him."Aleric raised his brow at his sudden mood swing. He sighed, turning to the window. "Go home and pack your luggage. We are going to stay in that pack for a few days.""Got it, Alpha. I am leaving. See you at the airport." She bowed her head and left the company.When she arrived home, her so-called pa

Freya thought Logan had gone crazy and was blabbering things. Everything was a game to him. He was an egoistic man who couldn't accept his defeat."Do whatever you want to do. I don't care anymore."After saying that, Freya left the house for the business trip.She began searching for Aleric as soon as she got to the airport. A voice suddenly stunned her from behind."Looking for me?"She turned around and saw Aleric Vance. What shocked her was that he was in casual clothes. His black jeans and the white t-shirt inside his black jacket gave him the look of a high-class model. Along with the most perfect face, he was untouched and handsome.She blushed when she couldn't take her eyes off him. He was too much of an eye-catcher to be looked away from."Why were you late?" he asked, looking at her calmly.She was caught off guard. "L-Late? Did we miss the flight?"She averted her gaze from him and looked at her phone to check the time. She raised her phone at his face and pointed at the c

Mack's brows furrowed as he heard Aleric. His head turned back to Freya to glance at him. "Yours?" he muttered, as if he were confused.Freya stared at the back of Aleric's head. She was shocked, unmoved, and speechless. Her heart started pounding at his words.'What did he mean by that?' she thought.Mack moved from the back door and walked around the car and got in the passenger seat.After fastening the seatbelt, he turned to Aleric. "Let's go. Your house is waiting for you."Aleric didn't reply. His eyes shifted to the rearview mirror, where they locked on Freya.Freya quickly removed her gaze. She neither denied nor questioned his words.Mack realized the tension. He glanced at Freya and then at Aleric. Aleric had been friends with him for a very long time. He knew many things about his life. He was surprised to see the woman.Aleric moved his gaze to the road and started the car. All the way to his house, everyone was silent.Freya expected that Aleric's house would be large, si

Chapter 76

Freya heard it all. She felt a pang in her heart. She hastened her steps and went to her bedroom. She pushed the door open and saw a simple yet comfy room.She closed the door and went to sit on the bed. She lay down on the mattress and stared at the ceiling."Why am I feeling like this?" she asked herself, putting her hand on her chest."I just broke the engagement with my ex-fiancé. Why is this mate bond getting tougher for me to bear? Why can't I think straight whenever he is around me?"-Aleric left at noon. Freya was in the house the whole day.She didn't have anything to do, so she checked the news. She noticed all the news about her and Logan had been put down. She knew Logan did that. He was excellent at it.A message popped into her phone. She checked and saw it was Aleric."Get ready. I will take you to a meeting."Freya didn't waste time and rushed to get ready. Her luggage was sent to the house when they arrived here.She put on a long navy blue half-sleeved dress. After
