Once upon a time, she had been in the habit of purchasing items for Nathaniel. Nearly a hundred of Nathaniel’s ties and belts were gifts from Freya.
Freya confessed that she bought the ties and belts as a symbolic gesture to bind the man she adored. She never expected Nathaniel to reciprocate with gifts of his own
In this moment, as he observed her reddened eyes and heard her speak with such caution, Nathaniel felt a sharp pang in his heart.
He instructed Koen. “Set course for Antique Street!”
Koen was taken aback. Antique Street was nestled in the old city of Saeville, a popular tourist spot, especially during the summer.
Cars were prohibited from entering, and the surrounding blocks were a labyrinth of narrow streets. Koen would have to park the car in an underground parking lot about a kilometer away from Antique Street, and they would have to proceed on foot.
Despite his reservations, Koen complied with Nathaniel’s order, feeling somewhat helpless.
Over the past three years, it was unclear whether Nathaniel was tormenting Freya or if it was the other way. around.
Koen had underestimated the influx of tourists during the peak summer season, and found the underground parking lot to be completely full.
He was forced to drop Nathaniel and Freya off at the corner of the Antique Street pedestrian zone and venture further to find a parking space.
As Freya exited the car, before she could even take a step, Nathaniel abruptly seized her hand.
Nathaniel held Freya’s hand firmly. A flicker of panic crossed Freya’s eyes, and she attempted to pull away. but Nathaniel’s grip was unyielding.
Despite Nathaniel’s prominence in the business world, he possessed the looks of a model or a celebrity. His tall stature and striking facial features made him a sight to behold, even in a crowd.
Freya cast her gaze downward. Despite wearing a mask and concealing her left hand in her sleeve, she couldn’t escape the curious stares directed at her.
The onlookers probably thought Nathaniel and Freya were an unlikely pair.
In that moment, Freya felt as though she was the subject of ridicule. She felt like a monkey performing for its master, with Nathaniel playing the role of the master.
Nathaniel had never been fond of crowded places. Despite having amassed his wealth on the streets of Chinatown, he despised the hustle and bustle of the streets.

“No. I only want that one. I’ve wanted it since three years ago. I had planned to buy it and place it in the villa in Newport, but I never got around to it.”
Freya could feel Nathaniel’s palm growing damp with sweat. The sensation was unpleasantly slippery, and she tried to pull away, but to no avail.
This time, Nathaniel didn’t react with impatience. Instead, he strolled alongside Freya, resembling a genuine couple.
“Over there!” Freya spotted a stall displaying purple clay teapots, tea–washing tools, and other items such as cups, plates, and flower pots.
The stall was modest in size, offering only a few simple items devoid of any extravagance.
Due to the prime locations being occupied by other vendors, this peddler had set up his stall at the entrance of a small alley. Behind the alley, a densely populated residential area sprawled out like a spider’s
web.
Freya, brimming with excitement, managed to slip her hand out of Nathaniel’s sweaty grip. Caught off guard, Nathaniel watched as Freya squatted down to examine an item and inquire about its price.
