Chapter 33 Forgive Her
That was Freya's pure instinct. It was a reflex action when she was bullied.
There were fingerprints on Austin's handsome face. Freya felt appalled when she looked at her hand.
God! Did she hit him?
She was astounded.
Suddenly, Austin leaned over, his face close to her. She almost lost the ability to breathe on her own, turned, and backed away.
"How dare you hit me?" His deep, husky voice had a strong sense of menace.
No one ever said a curse to him in his whole life, let alone hit him. How dare she hit him?
A look of panic flitted across Freya's little face, but she retorted, "So what? You were such a jerk..."
Austin's face darkened right away. "You owe me. I'm going to make you pay some other day."
With that, he turned and left.
Freya, who was scared to death, let out a long breath. The burning pain in her palm showed that she had slapped him hard enough.
"He deserves it," she snorted in a low voice.
Back to the front of his bed, Freya looked down at Daniel's handsome sleeping face and sighed. Why did Daniel happen to be Austin's son?
And how did Daniel even recognize him as his dad?
Dinner at the Campbell Mansion was put off because Daniel fell asleep.
Kneeling on the carpet, Freya leaned over the edge of the bed and fell asleep unconsciously, her face resting on the crook of her arms.
Half an hour later, Austin, tall and straight in build, pushed the door and entered. When he saw Freya and Daniel fall asleep in the dark room, he was startled and then turned on the wall lamp.
He crept closer.
Freya and Daniel, who were both good-looking, looked charming when they fell asleep in the dim, soft light. Austin frowned. What was wrong with him today that he didn't punish her, who slapped him in the face? Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
And... When they kissed, he actually got a strong physical reaction.
Damn it. How could she make him so drawn to her after that kiss?
Probably because of the light, Daniel suddenly stretched and then opened his eyes, revealing dark, large, jewel-like eyes, and long, bushy eyelashes.
When he saw Austin's face, Daniel smacked his lips in delight and called out in a cutesy manner, "Daddy."
When Austin heard this, his heart of stone melted.
Then Freya, who lay on her stomach on the bed, woke up. Ever since she gave birth to Daniel, she felt incredibly alert and would wake up at the slightest sound of her son.
Freya opened her eyes and felt uneasy all of a sudden. She raised her eyebrows and saw Austin of slender build sitting next to her, his cool eyes on her face.
Freya was embarrassed and tried wiping drool from the side of her mouth. God! How long had he been looking at her? Did she drool?
Looking at her face, Austin wanted to laugh. However, he stifled his laughter because of his dignity. He reached out and took Daniel, who crawled to him, into his arms.
Daniel's little face lit up with happiness when he saw his mommy and daddy.
"I'm going to wipe your face," Freya got up and said. She made her way to the bathroom, which seemed to be full of Austin's cool, masculine scent. And it smelled good.
She took a breath before picking up a gray towel. Then she wetted it, wrung it out, and walked out to wipe Daniel's face.
Austin picked Daniel up and got out of the door, whispering to Freya as she returned to the bathroom to put away the towel, "Come down for dinner."
