Then there was Liam's suggestion about introducing Freya to someone else.
From the study, Freys had been observing Kristian for quite stime. Though his call had ended minutes ago,
he lingered mysteriously. What was he plotting?

Kristian assumed her agitation confirmed his suspicions. "If not for the divorce proceedings, | would never have
discovered your multitude of secrets."
"| instructed you to leave!" Freya's tone crystallized with increasing coldness.
"Freya," Kristian pronounced her nbefore asking the question that ignited her fury. "I genuinely need to
understand-were your demonstrations of kindness, attentiveness, and affection throughout these past two years
merely an elaborate performance?"
"Perhaps you should direct that question inward," Freya retorted sharply, overwhelmed by the impulse to gather
her belongings and depart immediately. "Everything aboutis authentic. On our wedding day, | clearly
articulated that we could support each other. I've never deceived you."
She addressed his inquiries with direct responses, choosing strategic silence for questions she couldn't answer.
"How can you possibly make such claims?" Kristian's gaze intensified with frigidity, convinced she embodied
deception. "Have you conveniently forgotten your assertion that you were Hugh Briggs's daughter? How do you
explain that? Was that not a deliberate falsehood?"
Freya found herself momentarily speechless. She hadn't fabricated anything. The true deceivers were her father
and sister.
Furthermore, it wasn't precisely deception; during that period, Freya had genuinely been safeguarding her sister
like her personal bodyguard.
Anyone who dared victimize Ethel inevitably faced her formidable wrath.
"You needn't issue the apology statement," Kristian declared, wishing to terminate the conversation. His words
carried unintended venom. "I prefer that people remain unaware | once had a deceptive, jealous wife."
With that pronouncement, he departed.
Though anger toward Freya consumed him, his grandfather cherished her deeply. Compelling such a resolute
woman to apologize would devastate her dignity, likely breeding resentment toward him. For his grandfather's
sake, he would excuse her behavior this once. Just this singular time.

Freya remained oblivious to his internal reasoning. As she observed his departure from the second-floor corridor,
she followed him downstairs.
After he closed the door behind him, she decisively changed the security password.
Upon returning to her study, she discovered a message from Frederick.
He wrote, "When are we releasing that apology letter? I've crafted it perfectly-it will definitely provoke public
condemnation of both Kristian and Ashley." Daring to mistreat his beloved Freya essentially meant disregarding
him completely.
Freya responded succinctly, "We're not posting it."
Bewilderment overwhelmed him. Why abandon their plan? His initial assumption was that Kristian had
intimidated Freya, but then he recalled that the apology statement originated with Kristian.
