Chapter 475:
The Captain's attention was never a good thing. “What did he want?”
“He asked if the rumors about your marriage and divorce were true,” Trent said. He was curious how the Captain
even found out, given his limited access to phones.
Freya let out a breath. “That's alright. As long as he didn’t ask whether I've gone backward in any way.”
Trent stared at the Captain's last message, a flicker of thought in his eyes. But he chose not to tell her the
Captain was coming back. If she knew, she wouldn't sleep a wink.
“I have to go. We'll talk when | return,” Freya said as the noise outside grew louder.
“Okay,” Trent said gently.
After ending the call, Freya stepped out. The banquet had officially begun.
The birthday celebration flowed smoothly.
Freya greeted Lionel and spent a bit of twith him before sitting down.
Technically, she and Hugh were supposed to sit somewhere else.
But Lionel, trying to ease the tension, had them sit with Isaac and Melinda. By chance—or not—Freya ended up
beside Kristian.

instead of focusing only on himself.
Even though he stayed cold, Kristian still used the serving spoon to offer her food.
Freya tried to decline, but Lionel’s presence made it hard to refuse. Halfway through the meal, Freya felt the food
might just turn her stomach.
She didn’t want to eat what Kristian served, but with so many eyes watching, she had no choice. She forced
herself to eat.

“That's enough. I'm full,” she finally said.
Kristian said nothing and added more food to her plate.
Freya was left speechless. He was clearly doing it on purpose!
By the tthe meal ended, Freya’s patience had run dry—though she didn't let it show.
After the banquet, Lionel had a quiet chat with Hugh, expressing regret over how the family had behaved in the
past. Hugh stayed by his side, listening.
Meanwhile, Freya headed to the restroom.
Just before she got there, a tall figure blocked her path. He was slim, dressed in a suit, with a playful glint in his
eyes.
Freya recognized him right away—Felipe.
She had no plans to talk to him. In her mind, there was nothing to say.
However, just because Freya wasn’t in the mood to talk didn’t mean Felipe planned on keeping quiet.

“Talk about what?” Freya wasn’t exactly warm to most people.
