Chapter 50 Freya Was Being Held Against Her...

Freya was blissfully ignorant of the fact that she had become the subject of whispered admiration between Gerard and her assistant.

As the shrill ring of her phone pierced the air, she cast a quick glance at it, her expression shifting subtly when. she noticed the incoming message from Gerard.

Kristian, ever observant, caught the slight change in her face and quickly snatched the phone from her grasp. His features contorted into a scowl as he read Gerard's message.

That treacherous snake! He silently vowed that Gerard could wave goodbye to any hopes of a bonus this year.

"Done reading?" Freya's voice broke through his thoughts.

Kristian gripped the phone more firmly, fully intending to toss it back to her, but his thumb accidentally brushed the screen, pulling up the message homepage.

He noticed two contacts pinned at the top, Ethel, and a group chat labeled "Seven Little Warriors".

The conversation with Ethel was frozen on a playful emoji, while the group chat was abuzz, continuously updating with new messages from someone named Fred.

Kristian's eyebrows knitted together as he scrolled further down, stopping at a conversation from the previous day with Trent.

The message screen displayed just two simple words-"Good night."

Driven by an inexplicable impulse, Kristian was suddenly gripped by the need to sift through Trent's messages, eager to uncover the depth of their conversation and the reason behind their intimate goodnight exchanges. Who had sent the goodnight message? Was it Freya to Trent, or the other way around?

Swept up by a whirlwind of emotions, he reached out to open Trent's chat.

But just as his fingers brushed against the screen, Freya swiftly reclaimed her phone, preventing him from catching even a fleeting glimpse of the contents.

With another swift motion, she turned off the screen and fixed Kristian with a look of stern criticism. "It is one thing to abandon your character and wit, but to forsake even the simplest of courtesies? How could you snoop through others' private messages without a shred of permission?" Her words cut through the tension like
