Chapter 289 Kristian's Condition

Freya could read every word on the document, yet together, they felt strange-like something was off

She frowned and pointed to the first line. "Did something happen to Kristian?"

"It's nothing serious. He's completely fine," Lawrence said quickly, dodging the question. "He's eating well and drinking normally. There's just a small issue I haven't figured out yet."

Freya eased a little at that.

She didn't overthink it. She figured Kristian had simply found out Lawrence had been contacting her in secret.

It didn't seem like a big deal. As long as Kristian was okay, she'd call his father to come pick him up. The losses Lawrence mentioned? Those were not a problem.

“All right,” she said and reached for the pen to sign.

But just before the ink touched the page, she hesitated.

*Lawrence grew tense. He feared she might change her mind. Still, he kept his voice steady. "What's wrong?"

"Are you hiding something from me?" Freya looked up, her eyes fixed on him.

She remembered Kristian had made a deal with Lawrence to rescue her. And knowing Lawrence, there was no way he'd let Kristian leave before getting what he wanted.

Something didn't sit right.

Lawrence feigned confusion. "What are you talking about?"

Freya didn't answer. She just stared.

He looked calm, but sweat clung to his palms. Inside, he was anything but composed.

"Oh-right,” he said quickly, switching topics. “Kristian is doing much better now. He'll just need a check-up every month."

"Alright," Freya said quietly.

Since Lawrence hadn't shown any clear signs of guilt, she signed the papers.

Maybe Kristian still wasn't fully stable. Maybe Lawrence simply couldn't fix him. That would explain why he was so eager for her to take him.

There were two copies of the contract.
