Chapter 499:
Gerard froze. How was he supposed to tell his boss that Freya had ruthlessly tossed the bouquet?
“Are you deaf?” Kristian’s voice turned sharp, his tone cold.
“She did get the flowers,” Gerard answered, trying to soften the blow, his eyes shifting awkwardly. “But she had
them thrown out almost immediately.”
Kristian’s expression darkened. Did she really dislike him that much? Gerard hesitated, unsure if he should go on.
“There's something I'm not sure | should say.”
Kristian replied coolly, “Then don’t.”
“It’s obvious Ms. Briggs isn’t into you. If you keep pushing, she'll just get... annoyed,” Gerard said anyway.
Kristian had ignored all advice before, which led to the divorce. If he kept it up, Freya might do more than ignore
him—she might actually hit him.
Kristian’s gaze turned colder. “Didn't | just say not to speak?”
Gerard went silent. His boss's love life was a complete mess.
“Keep sending the flowers,” Kristian ordered, his tone clipped. “One bouquet every day. Don’t stop until | say so.”
Staring at his impossibly stubborn boss, Gerard had no choice but to nod. “Understood.”

After having the second bouquet thrown away, she messaged Kristian directly. “Stop sendingflowers.”
Her words were simple, blunt, and unmistakably her. She never bothered to hide how she felt.
Kristian texted back quickly. “According to the script, I'm pursuing you.”
Freya paused, and then it hit her.
Because Ashley had gone around claiming Kristian was chasing Freya, that mastermind hadn't made any bold
moves. But if nothing was happening between her and Kristian, Ashley's lie would be exposed.
As Freya thought it through, she rubbed her temples, already feeling the tension creep in.
