Chapter 57 Kristian's

Threat

Freya didn't acknowledge Kristian. Instead, she deliberately picked up her phone and dialed a number in plain view of everyone. "Is that the psychiatric hospital? I have someone here struggling with severe mental health issues. Could you possibly send assistance?"

"Freya Briggs!" Kristian leapt to his feet, strode across the room, and wrested the phone from her grasp, terminating the call with a jab of his finger. A wave of frustration washed over him as he realized she remained as exasperating as ever.

"If you're crazy, you should seek treatment," Freya remarked with unsettling composure. "Neglecting your condition won't merely harm you-it could endanger those around you as well."

"Do you believe feigning ignorance will extricate you from today's predicament?” Kristian flung the phone aside, towering over her with contempt evident in his stance.

Freya remained remarkably unmoved by his frigid demeanor. "What predicament are you referring to?"

"Gerard, show her the evidence." Kristian's penetrating gaze never left her face, astonished at her convincing performance.

Gerard retrieved an iPad, pulled up a page, and extended it toward her.

He harbored doubts about her culpability. "Ms. Briggs, please examine this material."

"No one else would resort to something so boring," Kristian declared with conviction, his disappointment in Freya deepening by the moment. "I'll ensure you face consequences for harming Ashley,"

Freya crossed her legs with deliberate casualness, browsing through the photographs while occasionally glancing at the comments beneath them.

She offered no indication of who might be responsible, merely looking up with detached interest. "How exactly do you intend to make me face consequences? Perhaps spend considerable sums to make me trend online, announcing to the world that you've betrayed me?" Her gaze locked with Kristian's. "Allowing internet strangers to ridicule me for failing to maintain my husband's fidelity?"

Gerard was shocked by her guts.

Kristian's fury manifested as a palpable chill permeating the air around them.

"If that's your strategy, prepare for disappointment." Freya's retort left Kristian momentarily stunned. "People online possess greater sense and superior values than you demonstrate. They'll assign blame solely to the one who committed infidelity."

"Do you genuinely believe I won't take action against you?" Kristian regarded her with a truly glacial stare.
