Chapter 58

Chapter 58 Do You Honestly Believe That...

It was the first time in a while that Freya had demonstrated such compliance.

Despite achieving his desired outcome, Kristian experienced an unsettling discomfort that settled deep within

him.

After Kristian's departure, Gerard gathered his courage and addressed Freya directly, "Ms. Briggs, why did you agree to apologize? Aren't you essentially becoming the scapegoat?"

"The scapegoat?" Freya echoed.

"Don't you think that's what's happening?"

"It is," Freya admitted, having forgiven him for his earlier words. "But your boss remains convinced of my guilt." "Maybe you could explain the situation to him again." Gerard couldn't bear witnessing Freya accepting blame unfairly. "If you clarified things a few more times, surely he would believe you."

Freya's penetrating gaze settled on him. "Do you honestly believe that yourself?" Gerard doubted it. Recently, Kristian was acting completely irrationally.

"You can sleep in that room tonight," Freya mentioned casually, gesturing toward a door. "You'll need to manage your own clothing needs."

Gerard stared at her, perplexed. He failed to comprehend her meaning. "Sleep?"

"Didn't Kristian instruct you to monitor me until I post an apology online?" Freya spöke with remarkable composure, displaying no anger whatsoever. "I have no intention of posting it today."

Gerard paused, processing her words.

"The kitchen is located over there, and you'll find milk and fruit in the refrigerator," Freya explained practically. "If hunger strikes, feel free to order takeout."

"Ms. Briggs!" Gerard called after her retreating form.

Freya turned slightly, acknowledging him.

Gerard hesitated momentarily before finally speaking. "I'll explain everything to Mr. Shaw myself-tell him you weren't responsible. If he remains skeptical, I'll investigate and present him with concrete evidence."

"That won't be necessary," Freya declined firmly.

She had agreed to apologize, but not for this particular matter.
