Chapter 34 He's Intent On Pushing You Out Of The...

Gerard bit his tongue, opting for silence as he steered the car through the streets.

After Kristian reiterated his directive, Gerard relayed the instructions with

meticulous care.

Arriving at the airport, Gerard clutched the plane tickets and ventured cautiously, "Sir, do you truly intend to depart from Alerith?"

Kristian's expression tensed subtly, irritated by his assistant's persistent questioning.

"The message you had me deliver could lead them to believe Mrs. Shaw has crossed you," Gerard explained, his voice laced with concern. "What if they decide to target her while you're gone?"

Kristian hesitated for a moment.

Pushing further, Gerard implored, "You understand the intricacies of the social networks better than anyone. The moment word gets out that you're distancing yourself from Mrs. Shaw, the others will likely take it as a cue to isolate her. In the long term, this could be detrimental to her..."

Gerard paused, releasing a deep, troubled sigh.

A brief shadow of contemplation flickered across Kristian's features before he dismissed it with a fleeting smirk. "If you're that concerned, perhaps you should consider marrying her yourself."

Gerard was utterly lost for words.

"Moreover, Freya has already filed for divorce," Kristian declared, his voice icy and detached. "Once I have the divorce papers in hand, I never want to hear 'Mrs. Shaw' mentioned again."

"Got it," Gerard responded without missing a beat.

Kristian paid him no mind, his dark gaze growing ever more enigmatic.

In a swift motion, he slipped something into Gerard's hand, rose from his chair, and his neatly pressed trousers highlighted his tall stature.

Gerard peered at the object in his hand and inquired, "What is this?"

"Had you not jogged my memory, I would've completely overlooked this." Kristian adjusted his jacket and murmured, "At today's lunch, everyone was aware that Freya was accompanying me."

15:40

"If you relay my instructions, some might suspect you bear a personal animosity towards Freya," Kristian remarked calmly. "Logically, someone who just spent time with me wouldn't have a problem with me, right?"

A look of confusion crossed Gerard's face.
