Chapter 365:
Freya raised her gaze, calm but piercing. “This is Alerith.”
“So what?” Kristian shot back, his eyes glinting with something dark. The chaos of the evening had clearly
unsettled him. “I don't like playing tricks, but that doesn’t mean | don’t know how.”
Her brow creased slightly.
From what she knew of Kristian, scheming had never been his style. But there was one incident she remembered
vividly—someone had tried to undermine him, and just when she'd moved to help, the tide had turned in the
blink of an eye. He'd said the exact swords then—he didn’t like scheming, but he wasn’t incapable of it.
At that moment, he had been ice-cold.
But it hadn't lasted long before he snapped back to his usual self.
She wasn’t worried, not really.
But Frederick did seem to cross paths with Kristian more often. If Kristian were truly provoked, things could get
complicated when her guard was down.
Fine. One last conversation.

a plan.

Kristian radiated coldness, his stare piercing. “You called him so sweetly.”
“It’s none of your concern,” Freya answered coolly, sharp as ever. “Weren't you offering to drivehome? Then
what's the holdup?”
Her words stung. Kristian’s gaze grew colder.
Why did it suddenly feel like she was treating him like sglorified driver?
He didn’t linger on the thought. He needed this twith Freya—needed to talk, to make her see reason. And
above all, to convince her to remarry him.
Lost in his thoughts, he slid into the driver's seat.
Freya opened the back door and slipped into the rear like she owned the car.
“Sit in the front,” Kristian said, his patience thinning.
She really knew how to push every last one of his buttons.
“When I'm with Mel, | always sit in the back,” Freya said smoothly. “If that bothers you, | can always call him
back.”
Kristian couldn't even respond. He
