Kapitel 270: TEARS OF HEARTACHE

Freya turned slowly, wishing time would stop so she wouldn't have to face the truth. She felt the hair on the back of her neck rise, goosebumps covering her body. Her heartbeat wasn't left out; it was loudly thudding in her chest.

"What did you just say?" she asked the young prince, not because she hadn't heard him the first time, but because she wanted him to correct himself. Maybe he had mistaken Rowan for someone else, or perhaps the prince was joking. She just needed to hear it again, hoping for a different answer.

The young prince cleared his throat, knowing that his words were about to crush the soul of the girl in front of him.

"I told you already, Rowan doesn't love you. That's the kind of man he is. He just looks for the easiest woman to bed—"

"I didn't ask you that," Freya's voice turned cold, her eyes glaring at the prince. "Repeat the words you said earlier."
