“It’s too early to tell. We won't be able to run a full assessment until his external injuries have healed.” He didn’t
sugarcoat it.
Freya told him she’d be there as soon as she could, then ended the call. By the tshe landed, it was already
past nine.
She headed straight to the hospital where Kristian was being treated, hoping Lawrence could get him transferred
to his own facility right away.
But when she got there, Kristian’s room was empty. Her stomach dropped. She checked every room in the ward,
but found no trace of him.
Panic rising, she pulled out her phone and called Lawrence.

As she followed the sound, Lawrence appeared at the end of the hallway, casually dressed, a faint smile on his
lips. “Ms. Briggs, over here.”
“Where's Kristian?” Freya asked sharply.

Freya's brows drew together. She didn’t buy it. “Then why are you still here?”
He smiled. “Had to wait on the family consent form. And—" He paused, his eyes shifting, a shadow of something

“That's not possible. He'd never say that,” Freya answered instantly. Kristian might've hurt her, but she knew his
pride. A man like him wouldn't say something like that. If he did, he wouldn't be Kristian.
“He said it. Why is that so hard to believe?” Lawrence replied lightly, almost mocking.
Freya's expression didn’t falter. “Letsee him. | want to hear it from him myself.”
She had every reason to believe Lawrence was just trying to keep her out of the picture for his own benefit. She
couldn't afford to risk Kristian waking up only to be manipulated by him again.
But Lawrence just kept playing his part. “He doesn’t want to see you. How else would you hear it?”
“And how exactly do you know he doesn’t want to see me?” Freya shot back.
