When Freya heard this, she knew Cheryl had no intention of dropping the act. To convince others, one must first
convince oneself.
Freya didn’t give her the chance to continue. “Is it really about old feelings, or are you drawn to his position as
chairman of Briggs Group? You should know better than anyone.”
“What... are you implying?” Cheryl's heart began to pound, though she kept her face unreadable.
