EuropeNovelChapter 1206:
Kristian’s gaze dropped to their intertwined hands and the glittering engagement ring on her finger.
At that moment, his heart twisted with a sharp, unbearable ache. The emotional walls he'd spent so long
building shattered in an instant. Yet not a flicker of emotion showed on his face.
Gerard nudged Kristian gently, sensing the sudden standstill.
That small nudge brought Kristian back to reality. He stared at the face that had haunted his nights, parted his
lips, and finally said, “Long tno see.”
“Yeah, it's been a while,” Freya said with casual ease, her voice carrying that familiar softness.

Ellis, idly scrolling through his phone, finally answered in his usual calm tone, “Felt like burying you alive.”
Ethan blinked, stunned. “What does that have to do with me?” he asked, thoroughly confused. He assumed Ellis

“Why'd you suddenly stop walking back there?” Ellis turned his gaze on Ethan, his voice slightly sharper, edged
