Freyja sprinted toward him, caught up to him, did not care about anything, and hugged him from behind.
“Honey, please listen to me!” she shouted at the top of her lungs.
Colton froze in place, saw the gazes of the passersby that were fixed on the both of them, and
immediately pushed Freyja away. “Have you lost your mind?”
Freyja lost balance and fell to the ground.
Her palm grazed on the floor, and the pain caused her to frown, but all she wanted was to create a stir,
and she could not care about her reputation at this moment. “I didn‘t plan to make you a cuckold. So
please, trust me. It‘s him,”
She pointed to the man.
Just as the man was about to say something, the other two men behind him walked up to him and
whispered something into his ear, persuading him to step back and not make a fuss so that he would not
create any issue that affected the outcome of their mission.
The man spat on the ground and left with his partners.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and Freyja was about to pick up the bag that fell on the ground. The beer
was spilled because it hit the ground, and the tiny box actually fell out of the bag.
When Colton saw the box, his eyes dimmed, and his temperament seemed to have frozen the air around
him, creating a sub–zero aura around him.
He stood tall and straight. “So, it turns out that you‘re such a woman. Your acting skills are quite
magnificent, huh?”
Freyja packed up the things on the ground, stood up, and swallowed the words she wanted to utter to
defend herself expressionlessly. “Whatever.”
She went straight back to the resort.
At the door of the room, she was about to call Nollace when Colton stepped forward and grabbed her
abruptly. “You‘d better have an explanation for what just happened.”
She did not have a firm grip on her phone, so it fell out of her hand, and the screen cracked.
Freyja was furious and started beating him with bloodshot eyes. “Are you mad!?”
Colton grabbed her by her shoulders and pushed her against the wall. “You‘re the one who‘s mad here.
You do deserve to be one of the top students in the Drama, Theater, and Film department as you can
really act. You‘ve even managed to fool my brother.”
After thinking about it, he could not ignore the incident that had just taken place in front of his very eyes,
He had been played by such a woman for the first time in his life.
“I don‘t have time to explain to you now.” Freyja‘s chest heaved violently as she pushed him away and
went to pick up her phone.
Colton tightened his grasp. jerked her backward, and pressed her against the wall again. “Freyja Pruitt, if
you don‘t give me a clear explanation now, I‘ll make sure you suffer big time.”
Freyja took a deep breath. “Someone wants to make a move on your sister and Nollace. It‘s the three
men from earlier.”
He laughed out of wrath. “I dare you to continue to make things up. I‘ll stay here and see what kind of
story you can make up to defend yourself.”
Freyja pushed him away. “I‘ve explained everything to you. It‘s you who don‘t believe me. Do you plan to
wait until something happens to them before you choose to believe me?”
Colton pursed his lips, stared at her for a moment, and said nothing
Freyja went to pick up her phone. Although the screen was cracked, it was still functioning.
She called Nollace.
The call went through after a long ring, and she asked, “Where are you now?”
Nollace told her that they were still outside.
Freyja breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall. “Be careful. Someone has their eyes on you
and Daisie. They’re planning to make a move on you two.”
As soon as she said that, Colton discovered something. He quickly dragged Freyja into the room, locked
the door, and pulled the room card out of the outlet.
Freyja was startled. “You,”
He covered her mouth. “Don‘t talk.”
The three men returned to the resort. “Yes, if it weren‘t for that b* tch who wasted so much of my time
and caused me to almost lose my cool.”
“Bro, the woman from just now, her boyfriend looks rather familiar.”
Colton, who was behind the door, listened vigilantly to the movement coming from the other side of the
door. Hearing what they said, he lowered his gaze and glanced at Freyja.
Freyja clenched her phone tightly in her palm–she was on full alert and had no time to care about him at
all.
They stopped in the corridor. One of the men took a huge puff off a cigarette and turned around. “Now
that you mention it, he does look familiar.”
Another man interrupted the two of them. “It doesn‘t matter whether he looks familiar or not. Our targets
are the heir of the Knowles and the young lady of the Goldmanns. I‘ve looked into their schedule and
found out that they‘re staying here.”
