The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret novel Chapter 530

Freya was surprised to see Nathaniel leave the building, especially with Grace by his side, who strutted with an air of arrogance.

Grace wore minimal clothing that showcased her figure, and she flaunted it proudly.

Seeing Freya, Grace puffed out her chest even more and casually linked her arm with Nathaniel's.

Although Nathaniel instinctively tried to pull away, he saw Freya and Sawyer and, suppressing his discomfort, kept his arm linked with Grace’s.

Grace felt a surge of triumph, delighted that Nathaniel allowed her this closeness. She looked at Freya with a smirk, feeling superior.

To her, Freya seemed inconsequential, especially now that she had been cast aside.

Grace greeted Freya with a smug tone, saying, “Ms. Freya, what a coincidence to run into you here.”

“I am just taking a walk with Mr. Nathaniel. I didn’t expect to see you and Mr. Sawyer here. What a pleasant surprise!”

As Grace spoke, the atmosphere around the group turned noticeably tense.

The idea of a casual stroll seemed insincere, particularly given Grace’s high heels and the context.

Sawyer’s expression turned cynical. Grace’s move seemed like a typical tactic among the elite to provoke others, and he noted how she was using it to taunt Freya.

Nathaniel's cold gaze remained fixed on Freya, who was absorbed in her phone, focused on design sketches and ignoring Grace’s comments.

Freya, once known for her shy and reserved demeanor as the Gomez family’s eldest daughter, had become even more withdrawn after her three-year imprisonment.

Her silence now seemed almost mechanical.

Nathaniel observed Freya's indifferent demeanor, feeling a chill inside. Was she really this unaffected by him now?

As her husband, he was stunned to see her sitting with Sawyer without reacting to his presence with another woman.

Was this her way of signaling a firm decision to divorce? Even though their marriage certificate wasn’t officially annulled, she seemed entirely uninterested.

Nathaniel took a deep breath, feeling a familiar ache in his chest.

Grace’s mood soured as she grew frustrated. Despite Freya's current status as Mrs. Morgan being on the line, she continued to act with haughty arrogance.

Her smile turned more insistent, and she addressed Freya with a saccharine tone, “Ms. Freya, when did you arrive here? What brings you to this part of the event?”

Freya frowned, finding Grace’s probing question intrusive. She wondered why this stranger felt entitled to know her activities. Did she really need to explain herself to someone she didn’t know?

Before she could respond, Sawyer leaned back in his chair, looking at Grace with a smile.

“Ms. Grace, where are you staying these days?”

Grace was caught off guard but answered with a proud smile, “I’m staying at Newport Villa, which is quite close to Mr. Nathaniel’s villa.”

She cast a loving glance at Nathaniel, aware that he also lived at Newport Villa, and hoped they might end up living together. She was confident Freya would be unsettled by this.

Sawyer’s smile grew colder, however, showing no sign of being affected.

“Oh, I assumed someone of your celebrity and your familiarity with Freya would be more discreet. Maybe it’s best if you stick to your own affairs.”

“Get out!” Nathaniel snarled at Sawyer, his eyes blazing, but his attention stayed on Freya’s pale face.

Sawyer stopped but didn’t leave.

Nathaniel, gripping Freya’s wrist tightly, stared at her with intense frustration. It felt as though he wanted to devour her to make sure she wouldn’t escape.

“Freya, are you really set on divorcing me?”

Freya looked at Nathaniel’s cold expression in disbelief and gave a bitter laugh. “Do we really need to pretend about this?”

Nathaniel was taken aback, his gaze fixed on the face he once loved. Then he let out a harsh laugh.

He said through clenched teeth, “How did I not realize you were so ruthless?”

Freya looked up at Nathaniel’s pained face and offered a sad smile. “People change and grow, don’t they?”

“I’ve been with you for a year. One learns a lot from such experiences, doesn’t one?”

Nathan was at a loss for words. His grip on her shoulder loosened as if he had been burned, and his hand trembled slightly.

This woman had a way of striking when he least expected it. It was true that Freya had grown significantly through their trials.

Nathaniel had imposed many harsh lessons on her.

From the start of their relationship, he had pulled her into a difficult situation. The downfall of the Gomez family and Freya’s imprisonment had left deep, painful marks on her.
