The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret



"Mr. Nathaniel, Ms. Freya, is that you?" came the voice of Tammy.

Freya and Nathaniel were hiding in the shadow of a hill, making it difficult to see them from a distance.

Eventually, Freya relented, and the gun in her hand finally fell to the ground.

Nathaniel's eyes lit up with joy. He stood up and tightly embraced Freya.

Tammy, seeing the two of them hugging, covered her mouth with a smile and turned to walk away. Young people these days were much more open than in her time.

Carefully descending the slope, Tammy stood at the bottom and turned away anyone who was approaching.

Nathaniel held Freya tightly, almost as if he wanted to envelop her entirely, merging her into his very being.

"Frey, let's not hurt each other anymore. Let's live our lives well, alright?"

Freya felt exhausted. She sighed softly, not saying "alright," but it seemed like she had agreed, lost in a haze where even she couldn't distinguish between illusion and reality.

At the end of the week, Koen and his team arrived at Hoover Village to pick up their boss and his wife.

They wanted to check on Mr. Nathaniel earlier, as this was the longest break Nathaniel had taken since founding Technologent Group, long enough for everyone to think he might become a recluse.

Koen and his team drove Nathaniel and Freya to the nearest airport, where they boarded a private plane to Saeville Airport.

As soon as they boarded the plane, a barrage of calls, reports, and information came flooding in.

To avoid such interruptions, Nathaniel had left all work-related devices with Koen when they went to Hoover Village, keeping only an internal contact phone.

Freya's phone had also been switched off by Nathaniel and handed to Koen for safekeeping.

Only Peyton knew of their whereabouts. No one else, including Mandy, knew where Freya had gone.

Mandy and Sawyer had almost gone crazy searching for her, even going to the Seaside villa, only to be told by Ms. Dovett that the couple was on vacation.

As soon as Freya retrieved her phone from Koen and turned it on, a call came through.

Nathaniel, busy with his own calls and reports, didn't notice as Freya stepped out of the plane's partition to answer her phone.

Raising an eyebrow slightly, he remembered they were now a married couple and should give each other some personal space. Freya didn't expect to receive a call from Sawyer right after turning on her phone. She quickly got up to avoid Nathaniel.

She had been bitten once and was now twice shy.

Sawyer's hoarse and tired voice came through, sounding like he had been holding his phone without rest, constantly trying to call her, hoping she would answer.

When Freya finally did, there was silence on the other end for a long time.

Eventually, Sawyer's hoarse voice came through, "Are you okay?"

Freya steadied herself, "Yes, I'm okay."

Sawyer, guessing who was with Freya now, felt even worse.

After hearing about the incident at Freya's wedding in Stanna, he had been frantic, but she erased her existence.

After a long pause, Sawyer said, "Congratulations."

His words were cold and a bit insincere.noveldrama

"Thank you," Freya replied politely, which finally broke Sawyer's resolve, and he abruptly hung up the phone.
