MainNovelChapter 418:
“What a disappointment.”
Toby forwarded every one of those comments to himself, planning to show them to his boss the next day.
Kristian, completely unaware of the buzz surrounding him, cast a cool glance at the man who had passed out
drunk. With a calm and detached air, he stood up and let Alan slump onto the couch.
Gerard, watching the whole thing, looked puzzled. “Sir, are you...”
“Take Alan to my place,” Kristian said with absolute finality.
“You sure about that?” Gerard asked, uncertain.
He knew all too well that Kristian had a serious thing about cleanliness. If you weren't someone he really cared
about, you didn’t step foot in his home.
And now he was letting Alan stay over?
Kristian’s sharp, unreadable stare didn’t give anything away. “Yes.” Though Gerard was clearly confused, he
didn’t push.

What stood out the most was how the night had actually played out. At first, Alan had been the one egging
everyone on to drink, but after the first glass, Kristian had taken the reins. Before long, Alan was drinking glass
after glass without even realizing it.
By the tthe clock struck nine, Gerard had delivered Alan to Kristian’s place.
After settling him on the sofa, Gerard hesitated. “So, Mr. Briggs is staying the night?”
“You can go,” Kristian said, his tone steady.

“You sure you're okay handling this alone?” Gerard asked, thinking that if Alan puked later, Kristian might
completely lose it.
Kristian’s eyes remained steady. “Yes.”
Seeing that he wasn’t going to change his mind, Gerard gave a reluctant nod and walked off, glancing back more
than once.
Kristian gave the man on the couch a brief look but didn’t linger. Instead, he pulled out his phone and started
typing: “How to pursue someone you like.”
Now that he'd accepted he had feelings for Freya, he figured it was tto do something about it.
Freya was constantly surrounded by good-looking, capable men—it was only a matter of tbefore someone
better than him calong. He stared at the search results, his gaze flickering as he read through the
suggestions.
