The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret



To accommodate Frey's features, all the models looked similar to her.

Frey and Nathaniel sat on the sofa, watching the models approach.

Frey felt a thrill of excitement, reminiscent of a beauty pageant.

The models were stunning, and the clothes were beautiful, with a strong sense of design.

She was inspired and eager to dive back into clothing design.

Though architecture was her forte, she had once made ends meet by designing and selling T-shirts with Peyton in a cramped rental house.

She had left jewelry design three years ago and only dabbled in clothing design occasionally.

Watching the models, she resolved to restart her design work once back in Saeville.

Frey watched intently, but Nathaniel's mood grew increasingly somber.

He leaned back on the sofa, thinking of Sawyer's sneer.

On the way to Pontenero, Nathaniel had already instructed Hudson to find out everything about Sawyer, intending to deal with him.

After the model showcase ended, Frey chose a few outfits to try on.

Despite his love for her, shopping with a woman tested Nathaniel's patience.

While Frey tried on clothes, he walked to the smoking area.

He lit a cigarette and took a long drag. The smoke enveloped his cold, handsome features, reflecting his depression.

Koen approached with his phone. "Mr. Nathaniel, Hudson's on the line."

Nathaniel took the call.

"Mr. Nathaniel, we've gathered some information on Sawyer. He's Alexander's half-brother. His mother was driven insane by Aaron and has been in an asylum. After Aaron's death, Alexander sent Sawyer abroad. Sawyer later boxed in Alexander's underground boxing ring, known for his vicious moves..."

Nathaniel listened, smoking, as

Hudson reported. Sawyer had

Alexander, forcing him to cede The Jewel Vault to Sawyer. swnovel

Nathaniel's frown deepened. Sawyer was someone difficult to deal with, and his interest in Frey unsettled him.

When did they meet?

It couldn't have been during the recent collaboration between The Jewel Vault and Andala Corp.

They were so familiar with each

other, that Sawyer even had the guts

to spill coffee on Frey's phone.dt could mean that they've known each other a long time ago.

This realization pained Nathaniel.noveldrama

He didn't want to think about it, but it seemed likely Frey and Sawyer had known each other for a long time.

Frey knew about his enmity with the Lloyd family, and he had shared many details with her.

Despite knowing his sworn hatred, she still contacted Sawyer.

This suggested she might be conspiring with Sawyer against him, possibly for a long time.

Nathaniel closed his eyes, the realization heavy.

Hudson had finished his report,

Nathaniel's silence prompted a

cautious question. "Mr. N

Should we continue the

investigation?"

Nathaniel opened his eyes, his voice hoarse. "Yes, keep investigating. Focus on Andala Corp."

After the call, Nathaniel leaned against the cold wall, calming himself.

When he returned to the lounge, Frey had chosen an evening dress.

She wore a black silk dress that highlighted her slender figure.

The dress featured dropped shoulders and a low neckline adorned with light-colored gemstones.

The bottom was cut in one piece with a high diagonal slit, subtly revealing her long, straight legs.
