Chapter 225 Do You Hate

Me

"Go and apologize to Freya-sincerely." Zander always came at things with a calm, logical approach "Just try making amends."

Kristian gave a flat response. "She won't accept it. She doesn't care about my apologies anyway."

"Whether she accepts it or not is up to her. But if you believe you were wrong, you should still say sorry," Zander said gently.

Kristian didn't say anything. He looked like he was deep in thought.

"Or is this about trying to win her back?" Zander asked.

"She's not going to give me that chance."

Zander's expression shifted, his gaze softening with emotion at the sound of his words. What in the world had happened between Kristian and Freya? He was curious.

Kristian placed his glass down and leaned back into the sofa, his eyes locked on the dim ceiling light above.

His emotions looked like they were about to spill over, desperate for a release.

"Kristian." Zander had never seen him like this-so breakable, like glass that might shatter if touched.

Kristian closed his eyes, as if to hide everything he was feeling.

Once he had his emotions under control, he murmured in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine."

"Do you regret divorcing Freya?" Zander finally asked the question Kristian had avoided earlier, his eyes never leaving him.

Kristian kept staring at the ceiling.

Just when Zander thought he wasn't going to answer, Kristian finally said, "Yes."

Not only did he regret it, he also wished he could turn back time-go back six months, to when everything was still intact.

He would've ignored Ashley's calls, stayed by Freya's side, cherished her, loved her, and made her happy.

"Then don't forget this feeling." Zander, the kind of friend who didn't sugarcoat the truth, made sure his words hit where they needed to. "So you won't make the same mistake again."

He had warned Kristian before. But some lessons can't be taught with words. People only really learn once they're forced to deal with the consequences. 0.0%

Chapter 225 Do You Hate Me

Kristian didn't argue. He took every word without flinching, accepting it all.

By the time they left, it was already midnight.

Although Gerard had gone home earlier that evening, he was still worried about Kristian. So when Zander called,

Gerard didn't hesitate to come pick them up.

Gerard didn't know what was going on. It was the first time he'd ever seen Kristian so out of it.

While driving, he glanced in the mirror and asked Zander, "Mr. Loftus, how much did Mr. Shaw drink tonight?"

"Not much."
