Chapter 439:
Freya nodded. “Yes. | do.”
Kristian hardly ever turned down her requests, so he agreed to make the copy.
Freya gave him a quiet thanks.
After finishing up his meal and cleaning up, Alan wandered into the study—only to spot Kristian transferring the
surveillance footage onto a flash drive.
He stopped dead in his tracks. What the hell was going on? Why was the footage being saved?
Before he could even open his mouth, Kristian had already finished copying the file and wiped the footage from
the system.
Freya and Alan didn’t stick around long. It was already pushing eleven, and Freya looked worn out. She shut her
eyes and started dozing off the second they got into the car.
Alan wanted to ask about the footage, but when he looked over and saw her face, all tired and peaceful, he
didn’t have the heart to wake her.
The car rolled on quietly.
By half past eleven, they pulled into the driveway of Freya's private residence.
Alan walked her upstairs, and just as he was about to ask something, Freya handed him the flash drive. “This is
the footage | had Kristian save. Take it hand watch it carefully.”

Alan looked confused.
He took the flash drive, baffled, not entirely sure what she was trying to tell him.

Alan shut her door behind him and left with the flash drive in hand. When he got hand played the footage,
the embarrassment hit him like a freight train.
Why was that ridiculous man in the video—him?

Suddenly, it all clicked. Freya had wanted him to see for himself. This time, he'd outdone even his worst
behavior. And the strangest part? Despite all that, Kristian hadn't tossed him out.
It was... surreal.
In the days that followed, Freya and Kristian didn’t run into each other again.
Alan kept a low profile at work and even told Toby to make sure he never had more than three drinks, no matter
what.
Toby had no idea what had happened, but he agreed anyway. Tzipped by.
The date was now the 14th.
Kristian had already flown back to Jeucwell.

But this time, things were different.

Though things between them had improved, their bond wasn’t what it had been when Freya was still a kid.
Freya noticed the tension and asked, “What's wrong?”
“What am | even supposed to do when we get there?” Hugh asked, lips pressed together, clearly anxious.
