FakeNovelChapter 1026: "Who is she seeing?" Lionel's tone softened with concern. Freya was like a granddaughter to him. "Is this man good to her? Have you looked into him?" "Ellis Lambert, successor to the Lambert Group. He's someone who can bring her happiness." Kristian's reply cquietly, though the words sounded steady, they were hard to say.
Seeing the person they love start anew with someone else cuts deep.
He was no exception.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStill, he knew their chapter had ended. If he couldn't bring Freya happiness, he had to let her seek it elsewhere.
Lionel and Isaac exchanged a glance, speaking without words.
Lionel's frown deepened, as if saying, "What's gotten into him?" Isaac shook his head and mouthed the words silently, "No idea." Those kinds of words would have never left the old Kristian's mouth. Before, he would have demanded to know if they were really his family and questioned why they cared about Freya's life after the split.
Lionel shot Isaac a look full of disappointment. How could a father not understand his son? "If she can be happy with that man, that's what matters." Lionel then shifted the topic, saying, “You look worn out from traveling. Go get srest." "I will," Kristian answered in a steady, low voice, showing no hint of unrest.
The moment Kristian disappeared down the hallway, Lionel's forehead creased in thought. He watched his grandson walk away, worry written all over his features.

"Weren't you the one who said Kristian needed to learn a lesson after what he did to Freya? You told us to keep our distance from him." Isaac's response was cool.
Lionel's mouth opened, then closed again. He had no answer for that. Those words were true, but he hadn't expected Kristian to return so changed.
"Don't fret so much," Isaac said, a bit dismissive. His main concern was Kristian's health, not his feelings. "He's grown. He can deal with his own problems now." "This is on you," Lionel said.
Isaac arched a brow in surprise. How was any of this his fault? "If you hadn't pushed Melinda away all those years ago and missed out on Kristian's early years, maybe he wouldn't be so lost with Freya," Lionel said, his agitation rising. "You set this in motion." Isaac fell silent.

"Think back to when Freya first asked for a divorce." Lionel leaned back and brought up the past "You heard her, yet did nothing while Kristian drifted further away. As his father, you stood by and watched without stepping in. A heavy silence fell as Isaac took in his father's words.
Regret lingered in his mind; he hadn't managed things well back then. Hel remembered his offhand remarkn "Was Freya merely standing in for someone else in your heart?"-thinking it was just harmless teasing. He knew Kristian had loved someone else before, but never imagined it would end a marriage.
