Chapter 554 Reconciliation
- When Freya slapped his face, her voice was shaky. She grabbed Nathaniel's shirt and yelled at him. "Nathaniel! What do you want from me for you to let me go! Tell me, what can I do for you to set me free!" She screamed while she sobbed as those questions had been the same ones that had been troubling their relationship for ages, and they still had not found an answer for those questions. Nathaniel's cheek was sore, but his heart ached when he saw Freya as she broke down on the ground. So, he gently wiped her tears before hugging her in his arms as he apologized in a hoarse voice.
- "I'm really sorry. But I just can't set you free. You were my lover before, and now you're my wife. I just can't let you go. Freya, if you want freedom, then you'll only be able to get that after I die. You'll get your freedom the moment I die."
- When Freya was about to hit him again, her wrists were grabbed by Nathaniel as he brought them closer to his cheeks. Since he was sick, his hoarse voice only made him sound even more attractive. "Freya, can we just continue to live like this? I'll respect your wishes from now on. Freya, can't you see that now? Look, I don't really know much about love and I really need you to guide me every step of the way when it comes to love. My mother died in a very tragic death, and it's traumatic to me. I didn't really have much hope when it comes to love, until I met you. Everything changed since then, and it has changed beyond what I can control. Freya, I really don't know how to love someone. Please teach me how to love someone. Can you please tell me what I can do to get you to not hate me so much?"
