Chapter 438:
Kristian’s lips curled into a faint smile, a soft sound of amusement escaping as he pulled out his phone and
called Gerard, telling him to bring the meal up.
Within minutes, Gerard arrived with the food.
Just as Alan was about to dig in, Kristian smoothly slid the plate of pasta away from him and placed it in front of
Freya. “The pasta’s too soft. | figured you wouldn't like it, Mr. Briggs.”
Alan paused mid-reach, his gaze flicking to Kristian, a mixture of surprise and confusion on his face.
Everyone knew Freya wasn’t picky when it cto food. She’d eat anything. But there was one detail only Alan
had ever known—something not even Hugh or Ethel had figured out unless he told them. Freya liked her food
soft.
Alan found his eyes drifting toward Freya’s ex-husband.
He couldn't stop himself from wondering—did Kristian actually love Freya or not? If he did, then why on earth
had they split up? But if he didn’t, what was he doing paying attention to such a small detail? Alan had noticed it
earlier. The moment Kristian spoke, Freya hesitated, clearly thrown off balance.
Even though she rarely let her feelings show, Alan liked to think of himself as a seasoned observer of human
behavior.
“Mr. Briggs, not a fan of the food?” Kristian had asked, catching sight of Alan holding his fork midair, the food

“I'm not picky,” Alan replied curtly, before finally starting to eat.
Within five minutes, Freya had already polished off her meal, while Alan was still chewing at a leisurely pace.
Then Kristian turned to Freya and said, “Cwith me.” Just like that, he took her away to erase the surveillance
footage.
He even allowed her to watch him do it.

That one gesture softened Alan’s view of him, and the irritation he'd felt when he first found out about Kristian
and Freya's divorce began to ease.
But would that feeling stay the sif he ever learned the real reason behind their split?
Inside the study, Kristian tracked down the footage by checking the timestamp.
Just as he was about to hit delete, Freya suddenly said she wanted to see it first. She fast-forwarded through the
video, and after watching the scene unfold in the living room, her brows pinched together slightly. Her eyes
drifted to Kristian.
“What's wrong?” Kristian asked, confused by the change in her expression.
“Have you been going through something lately?” Freya had debated whether to ask. Whatever was going on
with Kristian wasn’t really her concern anymore.
But after watching the video, one thought kept circling in her head: since when did Kristian have this much
patience?
Back then, if something like this had happened, Kristian would've had Alan thrown out before he could cause a
second of trouble. Why was he letting it slide now?
Kristian picked up on her meaning by piecing together her question and the footage. “No. It's just because he’s
your cousin.”
He meant he was letting Alan off the
