Hans grabbed the socialite by the collar and dragged her out of the venue under the watchful eyes of everyone present.
A collective gasp filled the air. Everyone knew that the night belonged to the Tyler family By acting this way, Preston was making an example out of someonet
Kieran and Cloise were quickly d
to the co
commotion. Seeing Freya in Preston’s arms,
Kieran’s eyes turned cold instantly.
Seeing Kieran’s reaction, Eloise whispered, “Ms. Dawson sure known how to leave an impression. Mr. Tyler only had to see her once to take her side.”
There was an underlying tone in Eloise’s voice, causing Kieran’s frown to deepen
Was Freya in such a hurry to latch onto a new benefactor?
“Mr. Tyler, thank you” Freya said, attempting to leave Preston’s embrace but finding herself held tight by the waist.
Preston had no intention of letting hier go

Freya didn’t need Preston to do anything special for her, but she also couldn’t afford to make him mad at her.
Although supported by Ronan, the Dawson family was still unstable. She needed to bide her time until her family could stand firm and compete with Kieran, not being forced into submission by a mere word from him.
