Chapter 202

Chapter 202 Set Up A Meeting With Miguel Brig...

Damon noticed Kristian was genuinely upset, as he decided not to rub alt in the wound.

They walked down the hallway. As they turned the corner toward the

entertainment area, they spotted Fores and Trent sitting together in the lounge, chatting casually

Kristian came to a stop. His eyes locked on Freya. She looked calm and relaxed, facing Trent

"What are you staring at?" Damon followed his gaze, then smirked. "Didn't think Trent was the type to shore up at a singles mixer."

"How did you manage to win over Patti?" Kristian asked out of nowhere.

Damon had a feeling Kristian was just trying to push his buttons.

Kristian said suddenly, "Oh right. You're still hung up on her. My bad. Haven't actually won her over yet."

Damon clenched his fists. He felt like punching him.

Just as he was about to fire back that Kristian was also still single, he saw him heading straight toward Trent Damon frowned, unsure what Kristian was up to, but he followed anyway.

Freya and Trent were still talking about nothing important when Freya sensed someone approaching She turned slightly and saw Kristian standing right beside her.

Her brows drew together the moment she saw him.

Before she could speak, Kristian took her hand and started walking toward the lawn.

"What are you doing?" she asked, startled.

Trent started to rise, but Damon caught Kristian's subtle signal and quickly pulled Trent into conversation.

Kristian didn't say a word. He just held Freya's hand tightly and led her through the room like the crowd didn't

exist.

People turned to look. Whispers followed.

Everyone knew who he was-even if they hadn't met him, they had seen his photos.

He had the reputation of being aloof and distant. Seeing him at a singles event, holding a woman's hand and walking out? That shocked everyone.

Freya thought about shaking him off. But with all those eyes on her, she didn't want to make a scene.

Kristian knew her well enough to count on that. That's why he led her outside, where no one was watching.
