Chapter 291 To Make Her Like Him A Little More

Freya had straightened up the guest room, and only once everything was in perfect order did she finally turn to Kristian and say, "You'll sleep here tonight. There are fresh toiletries in the bathroom. If you need anything or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me."

"Okay." Kristian stood there, nodding meekly in agreement.

Freya told him, "Go wash up and get some rest."

Kristian didn't move, still rooted to the floor.

Recalling what Lawrence had mentioned, Freya asked gently, "What's wrong?"

"I don't have any clean clothes to change into." Kristian dropped his gaze and fiddled with his fingers for a long

time before he mustered the courage to say it aloud.

He didn't want to be a burden to his sister.

But still...

"You go freshen up first." A flicker of concern crossed Freya's face. “I'll check if the neighbor next door has a spare pair of pajamas we can borrow."

Kristian and Ellis were roughly the same size, so pajamas wouldn't be an issue. As for everyday clothes, she planned to ask Gerard to bring a few sets over the next day.

Just as the words left Freya's lips, a knock sounded at the door.

She opened it to find Ellis standing outside, holding out a bag. "You probably don't have anything that fits him.

These are new. Never worn."

Freya was caught off guard. She hadn't expected him to be so considerate.

Ellis offered a small, quiet smile. "Go on. Give them to him."

After expressing her thanks, Freya turned to take the clothes to Kristian, only to find him already standing

nearby.

She passed the clothes to him, mentioning they were from Ellis.

"Thank you, mister," Kristian mumbled innocently as he accepted the bag.

He wasn't in the mood to talk, not really, but he knew enough to show

appreciation when someone helped him. Otherwise, his sister might think he was ungrateful.

Ellis was shocked.
