Chapter 997:

“I’ve got something important to tell you,” Felipe said, dropping himself onto the couch like it was his own, still wincing from lingering aches. “Something you definitely don’t know yet.”

Kristian kept his cool as always, handing over a glass of water without much expression. “What is it?”

“It’s about Freya,” Felipe said, his voice laced with dramatic suspense.

Kristian didn’t answer. He simply set the glass on the table, though Felipe’s words had clearly stirred something deep beneath his surface.

“What’s with you?” Felipe asked, confused by how oddly distant Kristian seemed.

“Nothing,” Kristian said, like it was no big deal. “Aren’t you the one who said you had something to tell me about Freya? So what’s going on with her?”

“Do you… still love her?”
