MainNovelChapter 450:
Their playful back-and-forth was practically a daily ritual. Still, no matter how often Lionel poked fun, he never
truly got mad at Kristian, and Kristian never took any of it to heart.
Kristian noticed Lionel watching him and raised a brow. “What’s wrong?”
“I'm trying to figure out the odds of Freya being drawn in by that face of yours.” Lionel looked genuinely pensive,
as though this was a question worthy of deep reflection. “I hear young women these days go for pretty boys.
Your cousin's like that. So are all those girls on TV.”
Kristian might've lacked confidence in a lot of areas, but not when it cto his looks. For that, he could only
thank his parents—those genes matched up a little too perfectly with Freya's preferences.
“Why not try switching up your hair or wardrobe a bit?” Lionel had never been a fan of men putting too much
effort into their appearance. To him, it felt like a hit to masculinity.
But now, he was ready to throw all that aside just to help his grandson catch Freya's eye.
Kristian looked genuinely puzzled. “I thought you didn’t like Freya at first. Why the change of heart?” Lionel had
always been old-fashioned, even hoping Kristian would marry someone of equal status.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Kristian first married Freya, Lionel had been openly displeased. But later on, even before knowing Freya's
background, he'd started thinking Kristian might not even be good enough for her.
It was a complete turnaround.
“Because Freya's a kind soul.” Lionel didn’t go into his usual speech about what Freya had done for him.
“Even though | didn’t take to her at first, she’s always treatedwith respect.” He looked back fondly, a soft
note in his voice. “Even when you weren't around, she was kind to me.”
Kristian stayed quiet, listening.

“She’s genuine. Kind. Got a good heart.”
“Yeah,” Kristian agreed softly, but his mind was already drifting to old memories of Freya.
“'Yeah' is all you've got?” Lionel scoffed, clearly unimpressed. “If you can’t win her back, then don’t bother
getting married at all.”
Kristian didn’t even hesitate. “Alright.”
Lionel stared at him, narrowing his eyes like he was trying to see right through him. “You serious?”
“Yeah,” Kristian answered, calm and sure.
He'd been married once, yet still felt clueless about what it really meant.
But watching his parents lately, he thought maybe he was starting to get it. Just a little.
“Alright then,” Lionel said.
They chatted a bit more, and just as Lionel was about to ask Kristian to call Freya and find out where she was,
the butler walked in with her.
“Ms. Briggs has arrived.”
Both Lionel and Kristian turned toward the door.
Sure enough, Freya had come. Lionel
