Chapter 97 The Unconscious Jacob
Freya gared at Nathaniel in silence, her eyes filled with the apprehension of a prisoner awaiting judgement.
Nathaniel proceeded to click on several links.
The first link revealed Peyton’s frantic cries as she valiantly shielded Linda.
Unable to contain her emotions any longer, Freya hurled curses at Nathaniel and lunged at him.
She had always prided herself on her refined upbringing, but Nathaniel’s actions had provoked her into behaving like a termagant.
As she charged towards him, Nathaniel seized her by the neck and forced her onto the leather sofa.
“Freya, you should never have tried to escape. Are you still holding out for Jacob?”
Nathaniel clicked on another video, revealing a private hospital in Pontenero. The footage was grainy, but she could make out the unconscious figure of Jacob on the hospital bed.
His body was entwined with tubes, his face smeared with blood, suggesting a severe accident.
“Nathaniel! You’ll pay for this!”
Freya’s scream echoed through the room. Her only beacon of hope, Jacob, for whom she harbored both hatred and gratitude, was now teetering on the brink of death. She had never anticipated Nathaniel’s influence reaching such far–flung corners.
Her tears had dried up, replaced by a burning hatred. Yet, her eyes reddened at the thought of Jacob.
Freya’s expression did not escape Nathaniel’s notice, and it served to further irritate him.
“Freya, even if Jacob hadn’t been in an accident, he would never have married you. Do you still see yourself as the privileged young lady of the Gomez family? I warned you to stay away from those no business with. You never listened. It’s time you learned your lesson.”
Freya stared in terror at Nathaniel, who seemed to have morphed into a madman. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Nathaniel abruptly released Freya, leaving her gasping for breath.
He then pressed a button, and the back of the leather sofa slowly reclined into
a bed.

Freya’s lips quivered slightly. She knew what humiliation Nathaniel had in store for her.
Her fear was so palpable that she felt an urge to kneel and beg for mercy. Her previous acts of defiance were now replaced by genuine fear.
Nathaniel began to undress, revealing his well–toned physique. His disciplined exercise regimen and early years of boxing had sculpted an impressive figure.
His perfect physique, compléte with an eight–pack, radiated dominance.

“Will you undress yourself, or shall I assist you?”
Finished
Freya bit her lip hard. Nathaniel snorted dismissively, clicked on a program on his laptop, and Koen’s voice filled the room, tinged with an unusual hint of hesitation.
“Mr. Morgan?”
“Disconnect Linda’s ventilator and restrain Peyton. Also, prepare a generous gift for Mr. Rivera!”
“No!” Freya fell to her knees, clutching Nathaniel’s trousers. “I’ll… I’ll undress…
The helicopter took off, causing a slight tremor in the cabin, mirroring the tense atmosphere. Nathaniel regarded Freya with a cold stare. He had never anticipated her attempt to flee from Saeville.
Had she merely tried to escape Saeville, he could have forgiven her, even if she had struck him with a root carving. What truly infuriated him was her alliance with Alexander.
Nathaniel gripped Freya’s chin in anger.
He clicked on an audio file on his phone. The voices were distorted due to the distance, but Freya’s voice was unmistakably clear.
