Chapter 128:
This time, Freya abandoned all restraint.
She grasped his wrist with lightning speed and delivered a powerful kick.
The unexpected counterattack caught Kristian completely unprepared. Gerard observed with undisguised admiration. Freya demonstrated remarkable capability!
“If you touch me again, I’ll dislocate your arm.” Freya’s gaze turned glacial, refusing to moderate her response toward someone displaying such foolishness.
Kristian’s jaw tightened visibly. “Try it if you dare.”
“Sure,” Freya replied without hesitation.
As she prepared to advance, Gerard intervened swiftly, positioning himself between them and addressing her urgently, “Please reconsider your actions. He deliberately provokes you to react inappropriately. Security surveillance operates throughout this area. Any record of your response could give him grounds to accuse you of intentional harm.”
Kristian’s forehead pulsed with veins of frustration. Gerard truly needed to teach him a harsh lesson!
“Surveillance systems are wholly inadequate against my technical expertise,” Freya declared, indignation evident in her tone.
Gerard paused momentarily.
Her assertion was undeniably accurate.
Recognizing that his idol faced no real danger, he promptly stepped aside, even offering encouragement. “Proceed as you wish. Should he sustain significant injury, I will summon medical assistance without delay.”
For the countless time that day, Kristian contemplated Gerard’s immediate termination.

“Have you not left yet?” Gerard’s expression reflected genuine confusion. What destination did Kristian expect him to pursue?
“Regardless of this evidence’s potentially fabricated nature, law enforcement requires an explanation.” Kristian intended to resolve this situation personally with Freya and commanded, “Attend to that matter immediately.”
Gerard cast a concerned glance toward Freya.
Kristian’s frustration intensified exponentially. Given Freya’s demonstrated skills and evident temperament, could he truly inflict any meaningful consequence upon her? Had Gerard completely forgotten who was paying his salary?
“Ms. Briggs enjoys considerable esteem from your grandfather. Exercise prudence in both speech and action.”
Gerard collected the laptop, adding pointedly, “Furthermore, this constitutes authentic evidence rather than fabrication.” Kristian’s gaze communicated volumes.
Gerard hastily left with the laptop.
Before taking his position behind the wheel, he transmitted a message to Freya. “Ms. Briggs, should my boss exceed reasonable boundaries, please notify me immediately, and I shall contact his grandfather.”
After sending this protective offer, he realized he hadn’t yet shared his excitement with others. He opened a different conversation thread and enthusiastically typed, “You’ll scarcely believe my recent discovery! My employer’s spouse possesses extraordinary hacking capabilities!”
His friend responded, “My boss demonstrates similar talents.”
