Miguel's face was like stone. “You don’t get a say in this.”
“You wantto marry to benefit the Briggs Group, but | can add value without being anyone's wife,” Freya
replied, perfectly calm, undisturbed by his domineering tone.
People always wanted more.
The Briggs Group was already thriving. It didn’t need a marriage to maintain its status.
But her grandfather wasn’t satisfied. He still wanted to push for an arranged marriage to take the company even

subtly hinting at him to stay quiet.
“Whether you speak or not, it won't change anything. If you do, he'll only get angrier and give us another
lecture,” Freya said, having long figured out how Miguel operated. “If you stay silent, he just gets to finish what
he wants to say, and that’s that.”
“Are you seriously planning to go to that event he mentioned?” Alan asked, frowning.
“Yes,” Freya answered, her tone calm and unaffected. “If | don’t, he won't drop it.”
“Maybe | should talk to him sometime,” Alan suggested, not wanting Freya to force herself into anything
