MainNovelChapter 695:
Hearing nothing from the other end, Freya asked, “Is there anything else? If not, I'm hanging up.”
“Wait.” Lawrence wanted one last confirmation. “That ten million you mentioned in your last email—when will it
hit my account?”
“With your memory and vision, I'm not sure you're even fit to handle Kristian’s treatment.” Freya saw right
through his little test.
“Just kidding.” Lawrence groaned internally. “You get back to work. I'll go check in on Kristian.”
He ended the call quickly, already regretting playing the hero earlier.
Why did he have to act like money didn’t matter? He'd just lost the best deal of his life—a hundred million bucks

Under normal circumstances, if Gerard had discovered she was K, he would've been practically buzzing, probably
shoving a notebook in her face for an autograph.
But right now, aside from that brief flicker of emotion when the truth cout, his mind was still tangled up in
thoughts of his boss.
“Is Mr. Shaw really doing that badly?” He glanced at Freya, who was seated just ahead and to his right, his
expression clouded with concern.
“Yes.” Freya didn’t elaborate. She swiftly signed the document laid out before her.
“If anything worries you during this time, just cto me.” She signed a confidentiality agreement on Gerard's

Gerard felt a tangle of emotions he couldn’t quite name.
Freya really did have a good heart.
