Chapter 234
Kieran knew he was in the wrong, so he was at a loss for words for quite some time.
Finally, taking a deep breath, Kieran said, "Fine, you've had your say. Now, what do you want for compensation? Just tell me."
"That's more like it." Freya had been waiting for Kieran to say that. With a cold demeanor, she said, "I want you to promise never to go after the Dawson family again and to leave me alone. Since we've called off our engagement, we owe nothing to each other. I got injured because you wrongly accused me, so you're paying for my medical bills."
"That's it?"
"Yes, that's it." Freya looked at Kieran and added, "But if you feel remorse and want to offer me financial compensation, I wouldn't mind. Consider it a breakup fee."
When Kieran heard the words 'breakup fee,' his expression cooled. For some reason, those words made him uncomfortably uneasy.
"Having second thoughts?"
"Fine. You'll get it." Kieran agreed without hesitation.
Freya wasn't too surprised. After all, money was the least of Kieran's worries. A few million for a breakup fee wouldn't dent his bank account.
"Since it was my fault that you got injured so badly, I'll take full responsibility while you're recovering."
"Good." Freya nodded, sort of happy. "At least you're not totally heartless."
"So, tomorrow I'll have Jarrett process your discharge papers, and you'll stay at the Sutton Mansion during your recovery."
Upon hearing that, the smile faded from Freya's face, and she immediately retorted, "Why should I recover at your place?"
"I've arranged for the head of the hospital to consult with the best doctors from abroad for your hand. If you don't want to end up unable to use your right hand for the rest of your life, you'll listen to me." "You..."
"This is me being responsible. You're free to go five months later if your hand has healed. If not, I will offer you a compensation sum. You decide the amount."
At this point, Freya calmed down and asked skeptically, "I decide the amount?" "Yes."
""Any amount?"
Seeing Freya eager to test his limits, Kieran suddenly felt that letting her jot down a compensation sum might lead to Freya shamelessly claiming the entire Sutton family's fortune.
Kieran frowned and said, "Fifty million, tops."
Freya knew it was too good to be true. How could Kieran ever agree to such a hefty compensation?
But thinking about spending the next
five months living it up at the Sutton
Mansion, freeloading off the most professional doctors for consultations and rehab, and possibly getting fifty million if things didn't pan out, Freya briskly agreed. After all, it was a no-lose deal for her.
"Deal. I agree."
Kieran knew Freya would agree. He leaned back in his chair,
nonchalantly saying, "If you're hungry, have something to eat, but don't forget our previous arrangement."
Kieran had once said that each dinner she joined him for would earn her a million.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Freya remembered this deal, so she raised her hand, about to open the takeout bag, and said, "My hand's injured. I can't open it."
Seeing this, Kieran had no choice but to put down his phone, walk over to the takeout bag, and open it, revealing each packed box. Inside, there were boxes of chicken broth, along with some eggs and cakes.
