Chapter 356:
“Cancel Liam's black card,” Kristian responded curtly, his tone final, leaving no room for questions.
Gerard hesitated, piecing together the outcome. It didn’t go well, huh? Composing himself, he replied,
“Understood.”
Kristian, his fingers absently brushing against his phone, contemplated Freya's recent decision to remove him
from her blacklist. His thoughts were interrupted when he commanded, “Go visit the Price family.”
“The Price family?” Gerard echoed, his surprise evident in his tone.
Kristian nodded, a solemn hush falling over him as the car hummed beneath them. Gerard didn’t press him for
answers and simply kept driving.
The second he laid eyes on Frederick, he instantly understood what Kristian had in mind. Frederick had never
imagined he'd bump into Kristian during one of his rare trips back home. Fate certainly had a wicked sense of
humor.
As Kristian and Gerard stepped into the Price family’s residence, the warmth of Frederick's father’s greeting
enveloped them, his smile broad and infectious. The moment he found out Kristian had call this way just to
see Frederick, he wasted no tnudging his son, reminding him—again and again—to be gracious and
respectful.

Settled into the plush comfort of the living room, the two men delved into conversation. Frederick, donned in a
crisp white sweatshirt that accentuated his youthful exuberance, masked his inner nerves with a veneer of
casualness.
He ventured first, his voice tinged with a forced lightness, “Mr. Shaw, to what do | owe the pleasure of your visit
today?”
Kristian, leaning forward, his demeanor commanding the room despite his role as a guest, didn't waste a
moment. “How much do you actually know about Freya?” His tone was direct, almost piercing.

Frederick stiffened, his casual facade crumbling slightly.
“Not much,” he admitted, a bit too hastily. “You might want to talk to Trent about her. He's closer to her than |
am.”
Kristian’s eyes narrowed thoughtfully. “Since neither of us knows much, why don’t we explore this together?” His
suggestion, smooth and coaxing, was laced with an earnestness that was hard to ignore. “As her friend, isn't it a
failure on your part not to know even the basics about her?”
Caught off guard, Frederick's mind raced.
“Could you clarify that a bit more? | honestly have no idea what you're saying right now.” Frederick spoke up, his
forehead creased, clearly not understanding.
Kristian, caught off-guard, hesitated, the words seeming to stick in his throat.
Gerard disguised his chuckle with a forced cough, trying not to let it slip. He silently offered an apology, feeling a
twinge of guilt. He hadn’t meant to laugh—it just burst out before he could stop it.
