Chapter 491:
“You can’t rein her in?” he asked, feeling just a little off balance.
Kristian said nothing, climbed into his car, started the engine, and drove off without another word.
Felipe stared up at the hotel one last time, then turned and left. Originally, he had cto ask Freya when
Farrah might return and to find out what she'd been up to lately.
But now, Kristian’s words echoed loudly in his mind. Asking would be pointless.
Freya wasn’t someone who gave in easily. And more than that—she was a force to be reckoned with.
Back at the hotel, Liam had already sent Lionel home.
Most of the guests had gone, but Isaac and Melinda remained, seemingly waiting for Kristian.
Kristian paused, then made his way over with his usual poise. “Why haven't you left yet?”
“You walked Freya and her father back to their hotel?” Melinda asked. A flicker of emotion passed through
Kristian’s eyes, but his voice remained gentle.
“Yes.”
She watched him closely. As his mother, she understood him more than anyone else could.

She said nothing more then—just decided to head hfirst. During the ride, with Kristian behind the wheel and

“Are you still planning on going to Alerith?” she asked, beating around the bush.
But he understood what she really meant. “Yes.”
“But Freya...” Melinda hesitated. She wanted to talk him out of it, but the words didn’t ceasily.
She had seen clearly that Freya was keeping her distance now. The warmth she once had for Kristian had cooled.
If he kept pushing, he might just push her further away.
“I know what I'm doing,” Kristian said quietly. He understood what she was trying to say, but he wasn’t ready to
give up just yet. Even if Freya acted like he didn’t exist, he still wanted to try.
At the very least, he needed to uncover whoever had been pulling the strings behind all the chaos.
And if, after that, she still wanted nothing to do with him, then he'd step away.
Melinda and Isaac exchanged a glance but didn’t press further. This was their son’s path to walk.
