MainNovelChapter 342:
Trapped in the chair, Frederick took a moment to consider his situation before hesitantly asking, “Could I go to
the bathroom first?”
Kristian gave a slight nod, and Gerard swiftly unstrapped him from the chair.
To ensure Frederick didn’t escape, Kristian instructed Gerard to stay by his side.
As they entered the bathroom, Frederick noticed Gerard trailing him every step of the way, his gaze never
wavering. Sighing deeply, Frederick muttered, “Could you at least turn around? It’s a bit uncomfortable with you
staring.”
“If I don’t keep an eye on you and you escape, I'll lose my bonus this year,” Gerard replied, adjusting his glasses
with a seriousness that made his words seem final.
Frederick was left speechless. He knew better than to try reasoning with someone who valued their salary and
bonuses more than anything else.
Five minutes later, Gerard escorted him back to Kristian’s office, where Kristian awaited, still holding Frederick's
phone in his hand.
Kristian lingered in the chair, the crisp lines of his tailored suit lending an air of detachment to his presence. As
Frederick stepped in, Kristian inquired, “Ready to tellnow?”
“Why are you so adamant about Freya unblocking you?” Frederick launched into the conversation.
A quick glance toward Kristian betrayed Gerard's unease. His gut churned with the premonition that Kristian’s
forthcoming words would be anything but comforting.

“It’s | who should cut ties, not her,” Kristian declared, his eyes turbulent with raw emotion. “She shouldn't have
the power to block me.” Ideally, if someone were to be blocked, it would be him initiating it. Furthermore, Freya
hadn’t been honest from the very beginning.
Gerard found himself at a loss for words.

Frederick deemed Kristian’s stance somewhat immature. “Why not just delete her? Then you'd be the one
ending things.”
Kristian just gazed at him in response. He uttered no word, nor did his expression turn threatening, yet the
intensity in his silence was enough to send chills down one’s spine.
“If you truly desire Freya to unblock you, you must first prove your worth to her,” Frederick said earnestly. “As
things stand, she won't be persuaded otherwise.”
Kristian’s eyes narrowed. How had someone as uninspiring as this becFreya's friend?
Frederick hesitated, his voice trailing off. “Not to mention...” He pondered whether to divulge more.
Impatient, Kristian pressed on, “Not to mention what?”
“You are Freya's ex-husband,” Frederick blurted out, then quickly averted his gaze, nervously scratching his
cheek. He continued, his voice lowering, “She has a strict rule about past relationships—an ex should be
someone you never hear from again.”
Kristian's interest piqued, and he
queried sharply, “What about Aeffirst
love? Dig oy cot otf ities after
theif breakup?” He recalled Freya
mentioning a similar idea. The

During their two years of marriage,
Freya seldom touched alcohol, only
doing so when absolutely necessary.
Was her excessive drinking that night due to her steadfast rule, or did it stem from a deep-seated scar left by
that first love?
As these thoughts swirled in his
head, Kristian felt a constriction ip his
chest. Perhaps her phire ft
