Chapter 350:
Freya's response was a sharp intake of breath—she was utterly taken aback by the revelation.
“Don’t worry, | have no intention of agreeing to it.” Hugh hurried to reassure her, his words quick and firm, as if
to ward off any misinterpretations she might harbor. “I'll see to it that everything he brought is sent back.”
“You go ahead and keep talking to him. I'll be back,” Freya said, frowning as her mind raced to make sense of
Kristian’s motives. What on earth was he thinking, showing up to see her father out of the blue like this? Had he
lost his mind completely?
The outrageous boldness of it left her momentarily speechless.
Hugh hesitated for a moment, his brow twitching slightly, but he chose to hold his tongue.
Once the call ended, he slowly made his way back to the study. Kristian was still there, standing rigid in his
tailored suit.
Hugh sank into the armchair and met Kristian’s gaze, circling back to the remark he had made earlier. He
reminded him flatly, “You two are already divorced.”
“That's precisely why I'm here,” Kristian countered, his voice carrying a regal resonance. “I should have cto

A smirk briefly played on Hugh's lips at Kristian’s admission. Where did he get the audacity?
“I was unaware of your marriage to Mina, so | couldn't intervene. But I'll ensure you don’t get another chance
with her,” Hugh declared, his tone resolute and devoid of any trace of hesitation.
“I'm aware of what you did to her.”

“I acknowledge my past mistakes, and | apologize,” Kristian remarked, his demeanor showing a marked
improvement from before. “You have my word—it won't happen again.”
Hugh shot back, his voice firm. “You can’t go back and pretend it never happened, Kristian. A man has to live
with the choices he’s made. You've already divorced her—it’s tyou both moved on.”
Kristian leaned forward slightly, his tone measured and steady. “Everyone’s made choices they wish they could
take back. Haven't you, Mr. Briggs?”
Hugh hesitated, his expression darkening as old memories clawed their way to the surface.
Kristian went on, his voice calm but insistent. “Smistakes are irreparable, but this situation still holds a
chance for redemption.”
“No, it doesn’t!” Ethel interjected sharply, her voice cutting through the tense air.
Kristian’s intense gaze locked onto her, his eyes simmering with unspoken thoughts.
Ethel, fully aware that eavesdropping was morally questionable, couldn't shake the suspicion that Kristian
harbored hidden agendas.
