She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 528:

Kristian’s gaze remained fixed on him, his presence commanding the room with an intensity that seemed to grow with every passing second. Gerard, adjusting his glasses, couldn’t shake the feeling of nervousness that clung to him.

“If you want to know, I’ll try to figure it out,” Gerard added, his voice steady, but offering little reassurance.

Kristian remained silent, his eyes still unwavering.

From Gerard’s hesitant response, Kristian had already pieced together that Melvin harbored feelings for Freya. While he had made up his mind not to interfere, choosing instead to quietly support her from the shadows, the knowledge that someone else desired her unsettled him deeply.

Gerard fell into an uneasy silence, his thoughts racing. He knew better than to provoke Kristian, especially when the man’s mood seemed to teeter on the edge of something dangerous.

“What’s Melvin’s background?” Kristian asked, his voice flat, as if he were simply making an observation.

“I’m not sure,” Gerard answered honestly. “He never mentioned it.”

Despite their long acquaintance, Melvin was a man of few words, and their conversations rarely ventured into anything personal. Gerard had never seen a reason to inquire.
