Chapter 363:
Kristian’s grip on the phone tightened, his knuckles turning white as images he'd long tried to suppress came
flooding back in a relentless tide. He managed to ask through gritted teeth, “Where are they?”
Gerard paused, the silence stretching between them. He recalled Melvin’s earnest expression earlier, which
made him hesitate. Finally, he asked, with a hint of caution in his voice, “Why do you want to know?”
Kristian’s expression turned colder by the second, the frost in his eyes enough to chill the room. Seriously? Freya
was his ex-wife! Why the hell wouldn't he want to know?!
“I know this might rub you the wrong way, but I think it’s something we need to talk about,” Gerard replied, his
tone earnest, believing deeply that Freya, Melvin, and even Kristian himself were inherently good people. Despite
Kristian’s rough edges, Gerard felt that he was just a man who hadn’t yet cto terms with his emotions.
All Gerard wanted was for Freya to find real, lasting happiness. Kristian’s jaw tightened, the vein in his temple
twitching. His patience was thinning fast. “Say it.”
“Do you... love Ms. Briggs?” Gerard asked, the question slipping out in a rush.
Kristian didn’t answer right away. His deep eyes gave nothing away, as if they were bottomless wells, impossible
to read.
As the silence hung heavy, Gerard pressed on. “If you're unsure about your feelings for her, then perhaps it’s
best not to interfere with her life.”
Kristian’s voice was low and dangerous as he asked, “What exactly are you trying to imply?”

anything else. “If you haven’t cto terms with your own emotions, you shouldn't interfere with their
relationship,” he advised, his tone tinged with sincerity.
Kristian had coasted through life with ease—showered with love by his family, praised for his academic brilliance,
and steadily rising in a rewarding career. He seldom encountered real struggles. In boardrooms, he was
applauded; in daily life, he was envied. With his striking looks, athletic build, and enviable wealth, admiration
followed him wherever he went.

Naturally, all that ease had molded him—into someone proud, a little too used to getting his way, and
frustratingly set in his opinions. If he didn’t break through these traits, even if he remarried Freya, they wouldn't
find happiness together.
“Address!” The command cfrom Kristian in a tone as icy as the winds of the harshest winters. His emotions
might have been a tangled web, but his resolve was clear—he could not let Freya slip away from his life.
In the melancholy days that followed their separation, Kristian had been lost in the echoes of their past. Each
memory of Freya, no longer his, constricted his heart with a sharp pang of pain and a deep, gnawing regret. He
was a man unacquainted with true affection, yet filled with remorse over their divorce. In his heart, Freya
belonged to him—forever and always.
As Gerard observed Freya and Melvin quietly dining, he took a moment to gauge the tit would take for
Kristian to reach them. With a reluctant sigh, tempered by a sense of inevitable resignation, he finally disclosed
the address.
