She Took The House The Car And My Heart novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116 Do You Not Find Freya Very Mysterio…

Felipe slumped onto the couch, still sleepy and startled, and irritably asked Kristian, “Why are you scaring me at this hour?”

“Scaring you?” Kristian was baffled by the complaint.

“Why are you here?” Felipe changed the subject while yawning. “You didn’t come to mope about your divorce with me, did you?”

“For this.” Kristian stretched out a small playing card.

As soon as Felipe saw it, his drowsiness disappeared, and a mischievous grin appeared on his face.

“Gerard said you told him that I should see you if I was curious about how Freya’s playing card got to your place,” Kristian said, his eyes intently fixed on Felipe.

Felipe nodded nonchalantly. “Yeah, that’s correct.”

“When did she leave it?” Kristian pressed on, eager for an answer.

“That night when you came here to pick her up,” Felipe said, still amazed by Freya’s skills.

Kristian looked confused.

Felipe didn’t mince words. He handed the card back to Kristian, stood up, and began walking upstairs. “If you really want to know, come with me.”

Kristian followed him.

Felipe walked through the bedroom to the balcony with his hands in his pockets and nodded toward a severed line. “Last time she was downstairs there, she used that card you’re holding to cut through this line.”

“I didn’t come here to joking with you.” Kristian was skeptical.

Cutting a line accurately from a distance with a playing card was beyond ordinary.

Even if Freya had once been the Briggs family’s bodyguard, it seemed far–fetched.

Felipe arched an eyebrow. “You don’t believe me?”

Kristian shot him a skeptical glance that said, “Really, do you think I’m that naive?”

“Alright.” Felipe had expected such skepticism and turned back toward his study. “Come on, you’ll see for yourself.”

He turned on his laptop and pulled up the surveillance footage from that night.

As the footage of Freya fighting the bodyguards played, Felipe watched Kristian’s grave demeanor and started narrating, “She’s quite the force. She single–handedly took down several of my guards.”

Kristian watched closely. Freya’s fighting technique was precise and deliberate, each move made with maximum efficiency.

Her skills were clearly beyond what you’d expect from a typical bodyguard.

“You don’t need to see the bit where I had a chat with her,” Felipe said as he fast–forwarded the video. “Let’s skip to the important part.”

Kristian remained silent, allowing Felipe to skip through the footage.

Felipe paused the video just as he had taunted Freya, saying, “So what happens when your countdown ends? Do you imagine you can simply force your way in?”

Immediately he said that, Freya flung a playing card, which sliced through the line on the balcony.

“See that?” Felipe exclaimed, still feeling a shiver.

Kristian suddenly interrupted, “Wait.”

“What?” Felipe looked at him, confused.

Without a word, Kristian rewound the footage to the moment right after Felipe spoke.

This time, he concentrated hard on Freya’s left hand, not missing a blink.

Yet, he still couldn’t understand how the playing card had come into her hand. It seemed to appear out of nowhere.

He slowed down the playback speed, but it remained unclear.

“What’s the matter?” Felipe asked as he watched him rewind the video repeatedly.

Kristian was deep in thought. While he still held Freya’s playing card, he requested, “I need a copy of this footage.”

“Aren’t you set to divorce her?” Felipe hesitated, then locked his laptop screen. “Why do you need it?”

“Just give it to me.”

“No.” Felipe was puzzled by Kristian’s insistence.

“If you really want this footage, help me find Farrah first.” Felipe’s voice showed his desperation. He had been searching endlessly with no success. “She was sent away by your wife. You need to bring her back to me.”

“Give me the footage first, and I’ll have Gerard help you with that,” Kristian retorted, his patience wearing thin.

Felipe leaned back in his chair and faced him squarely. “I trust you in other matters, but first, you have to help me find her. Just tell me which city she’s in.”

Felipe didn’t question Kristian’s integrity per se.

It was more about Freya’s mysterious nature. If she held other secrets, finding Farrah could become an impossible task.

“Alerith,” Kristian suddenly declared.

Felipe was taken aback. “What?”

“Farrah is in Alerith.” Kristian wanted to wrap things up there.

relipe gave him a skeptical look. “How do you know this?”

“If you want to protect someone, where would you put them?” Kristian asked him.

Felipe answered without hesitation, “Jeucwell.”
