Chapter 155 Her Parents Had Never Loved Each...

Freya was oblivious to what had unfolded between Hugh and Ethel.

After dropping Freya and Kristian off, Gerard had left, leaving only the two alone in the living room.

Freya glanced at Kristian, who hadn't uttered a single word since their arrival. She had no intention of breaking the silence herself. Her visit today was simply to make it easier to coordinate with Ethel when she arrived later.

Originally, Freya had planned to have someone deliver the items, but after trying the door and finding it locked, she had given up. Besides, that time of day wasn't ideal for deliveries anyway.

"Have you thought it through?" Kristian suddenly shattered the silence,

Freya looked at him, puzzled. "What do you mean?"

"Getting remarried."

Freya felt at a loss for words.

(She had no desire to engage in conversation with him.

Kristian rose to his feet and approached her. His tall frame towered over her, casting a shadow that seemed to swallow her whole. He leaned in just enough for his words to feel close, almost too close. "If you have any concerns, feel free to share them. As long as you agree to remarry me, I'll transfer all my assets into your name." "That's unnecessary." Freya dismissed him without hesitation.

Once trust was broken, it was as if trying to mend shattered glass. No matter the effort, it would never be whole again.

Freya's trust in Kristian had long since vanished, irreparably lost.

Kristian opened his mouth as if to say something more, but the icy distance radiating from Freya stopped him

cold.

There was something about her today, something different from the usual.

As he contemplated this, a knock came at the door.

Freya checked the time and knew it was Ethel. She didn't rush to answer.

Knowing Kristian's nature, if she got up to answer the door now, he'd probably think it was Melvin or Trent- and might even refuse to open it.

Kristian, in fact, thought as much.
