Chapter 639:
Natasha clicked her tongue.
She took another sip of water before glancing his way. “Where’s Freya?”
“In the basement.”
“You threw a woman into your dungeon?” Natasha looked incredulous, then shot him a look that said, you're on
your own. “If Kristian finds out, you're toast,” she said with a laugh.
Brendan said nothing. The moment Kristian’s nwas mentioned, his gaze darkened slightly.
Natasha didn’t press. She told him she was going to check on Freya and left the room, heading toward the
basement. Brendan didn’t stop her. That in itself said a lot.
Though Natasha often lent Brendan a hand with affairs elsewhere, she knew the layout of his house like the back

“There's no need to be so bristly with me,” Natasha said, lowering herself onto the stairs. Her long hair framed
her delicate face, making it appear even smaller. “I'm nothing like the man you met today.”
Freya gave her another 100k glance, the sthought crossing her mind for the umpteenth time—did this
woman really take her for a fool? This woman walked in freely, used a password to get inside, and then had the
