HappyNovelChapter 729:
“I'm taking you to meet someone,” Freya said, deciding to prepare him gently. “You can see if you like being
around him. If you do...” She trailed off, trying to find the right words for someone with the mind of a five-year-
old.
Before she could figure it out, Kristian’s voice cut through the silence, low, fragile. “You're not going to leave me,
are you?”
“No,” Freya said at once.
Kristian’s lips pressed into a thin line, his eyes swimming with quiet dread. So, in the end, she didn’t want him
after all.
Freya noticed the shift in his mood. Remembering his fragile mental state, she tried to ease him. “I just want you
to see who you feel comfortable with. If you meet him and you like him, I can...”
“I only want to be with you!” Kristian broke in before she could finish.
“I don’t like anyone else.”
He hadn't been happy with that doctor before—not one bit. He wanted nothing to do with that man.

Kristian gave him a wary stare, then edged behind Freya, as if Gerard were sbad guy.
Gerard blinked, confused. What on earth was happening?
“Ms. Briggs... what happened to him?” he asked.
“He’s lost his memory. Mentally, he’s five,” Freya explained. She figured it was safe to be honest—Gerard was
someone Kristian trusted. “He's just a little shy with new people right now.”
Gerard gave Kristian a few lingering glances.
It sounded like something ripped from a soap opera—amnesia and all. But he didn’t push for more details on the
doorstep. He punched in the code and led them upstairs.
After pouring them each a glass of water, he leaned in and finally asked what was really on his mind.
“Ms. Briggs,” he said in a hushed tone, “are you sure Mr. Shaw actually lost his memory and isn’t just faking it?”
