She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 878:

Psychological instability often gets worse with emotional triggers. Freya found merit in his logic but asked, “What if I find him and he asks me again whether I want to be with him—what should I say?” Turning him down outright would just be another blow. It could send him straight into another episode.

“He listens to you,” Ellis replied quickly, offering a measured suggestion. “If he asks again, let him down gently—but don’t shut the door completely. Give him just enough hope to hold on until Lawrence returns.”

“Isn’t that a bit… cruel?” Freya’s gut twisted at the thought. Lawrence’s return didn’t guarantee anything. Kristian’s memory might never return. And if it didn’t, his current personality wouldn’t just disappear. A promise is a promise. If she gave him her word and he met all her conditions, she’d have no excuse not to stay with him.

“For now, just keep things stable,” Ellis advised. “I’ll reach out to my associates, see if anyone has any solutions.”

“Alright,” Freya agreed after a pause.

Once Ellis stepped away to make those calls, Freya rang Kristian again. She reminded herself not to judge him by who he used to be. The man he was now had shifted—drastically. Even though his mental faculties had recovered, emotionally, he acted like a petulant child nursing a broken heart.
