She Took The House The Car And My Heart novel Chapter 195

Chapter 195 Her Indifference

“No, no, no!” Ashley blurted, her tone flustered and anxious, desperate not to be mistaken. “This has nothing to do with me. I’m just a little worried.”

“Worried about what?” Freya’s voice cut in coolly.

“You mentioned someone was watching us, didn’t you?” Ashley often found herself intrigued by the way Freya’s mind worked–how sharp she was. “If you start seeing Kristian again after the divorce, won’t that man make a move on you?”

Freya wasn’t the least bit rattled by the s

suggestion.

If that man dared make another move, she wouldn’t let it slide.

She had chosen not to deal with it before,

consumed with the divorce. But now, things were different.

“It’s fine. I can take care of it,” Freya answered, unfazed. “I’ve got something to do, so I’m hanging up. If that man tries to contact you, keep me posted.”

“Okay,” Ashley replied without hesitation.

Freya ended the call.

As soon as she lowered her phone, Hugh approached her. “Are we heading out?”

“Yes,” Freya said simply.

Together, they began making their way back into the hotel to find Lionel, intending to say goodbye now that the banquet was drawing to a close.

But just as they were about to go in, they spotted Kristian lingering nearby.

He’d clearly been standing there for some time, and the moment he saw Hugh by Freya’s side, he stayed put, not wanting to intrude.

Hugh noticed him and, recalling the hour they’d vanished together, made a guess. “Do you need to talk to him?” “No,” Freya answered coolly.

Hugh didn’t press. It wasn’t his place to pry into her personal matters.

Freya brushed past Kristian like he was no more than a stranger.

But Kristian reached out and caught her arm. “I need a word with you.”

“There’s nothing to discuss,” Freya shot back.

“There is,” Kristian insisted.

Freya lifted her gaze to meet his, bewildered by his sudden persistence. What was he trying to get at?

“Don’t you want to talk about that person?” Kristian came right to the point.

“No,” Freya answered flatly. She knew better than anyone that Kristian didn’t truly want to address the matter. “If you’ve got a new plan, just text me.”

She then turned to Hugh and said, “Let’s go.”

With her father standing there, Kristian had no choice but to let her go.

He trailed them inside.

Hugh and Freya exchanged a few polite words with Lionel. Although Lionel was clearly reluctant to see her leave, he understood that the Shaw family no longer held any sense of home for her.

As the father and daughter prepared to go, Lionel turned to Kristian and prodded, “Aren’t you going to send them off?”

Kristian remained silent, but followed nonetheless.

Seeing him tag along, Lionel sensed something was off about his demeanor today, but he didn’t dwell on it.

Kristian accompanied Freya and Hugh back to their hotel. Hugh had declined at first, but Kristian insisted, and he finally relented.

Even after arriving, Kristian didn’t leave.

Hugh knew it was because of Freya. But since Freya didn’t like Kristian, his presence would only irritate her. “You can stop here. Mina and I can head up ourselves.”

“I insist,” Kristian replied evenly.

Hugh was frustrated.

How could Kristian be so dense? Freya simply didn’t like that gesture!

“Dad, go on ahead,” Freya said gently, knowing that if she didn’t speak with Kristian now, he would follow her straight up to her room. “I’ll be up in a bit.”

Hugh hesitated, uneasy. “But…”

“I know what I’m doing.” Freya reassured him, her tone composed.

Hugh studied the two of them. Kristian didn’t seem out of line, so he chose to trust Freya and left them to it.

Freya walked to the nearby garden, cutting to the chase. “What do you want?”

Kristian said nothing. He didn’t know what he wanted.

All he knew was that the thought of her going back to Alerith left a hollow ache in his chest. He just wanted to see her, speak to her, and be near her.

“If you’ve got nothing to say, then stop following me,” Freya snapped, not in the mood to drag it out.

Her icy tone struck something in him. “Am I really that worthless in your eyes? Not even as decent as Cyril- the guy you just met?”

She usually disliked giving her number to strangers, but she hadn’t hesitated when Cyril asked.

She had even said she preferred Cyril’s company to his.

“Yes,” Freya replied without hesitation.

For the first time, Kristian truly grasped the meaning of heartache. Watching her expressionless face utter that word felt like a blade slicing through his ribs.

“Just because of the past… you hate me that much?” He still cared–deeply. He still wanted a place in her heart. Freya corrected him without a flicker of emotion. “It’s not hate. It’s simply indifference.”

That said everything.
