NovelApexChapter 1028: "What do you mean?" Isaac's lips curved slightly. He decided not to press, instead keeping the moment light. "Since you started running Shaw Group, it's unusual to see you sitting out here alone. What brings you back now?" Kristian answered in a calm voice, "I just wanted a little quiet." "Is something bothering you?" "Nothing's weighing on me." "Not being honest even now that I'm here?" Kristian shifted the conversation. "Did Grandpa put you up to this?" "He did. Your mood caught his attention, and he sentout here to check on you." A small...
A chuckle left Isaac as he crossed his legs and warmed his hands around the cup. "I got a lecture for not noticing sooner." With a shrug, Kristian brushed it off. "Alright." "That's all you have to say?" "Are you the one in need of comfort?" Kristian tossed the question back.

"You say that, but your demeanor tells a different story." "There's nothing wrong. After pushing forward for so long, I'm just a little worn out. Sometimes, I need to pause and reflect on the mistakes I've made." Kristian took a steady breath. "Once I understand them, I'll be able to move forward." "Have you managed to sort it all out?" Isaac chimed in.
Confidence filled most of his thoughts when it cto his son. From an early age, Kristian learned to stand on his own.
Still, Isaac worried that his son might not be able to move past old heartbreaks.
The consequences of earlier mistakes seemed heavier now, in hindsight.
"I have," Kristian confirmed, his tone quiet but resolute. “I only need a bit more time.” Understanding lit Isaac's eyes. He offered a gentle reassurance. "No need to hurry. For now, neither your grandpa nor your mom will press you." "Thank you, Dad." "And Freya? How do you feel about her these days?"

Curiosity flickered in Isaac's expression. What kind of man could actually win Kristian's approval? Lambert Group's reputation preceded it, yet the heir remained a bit of a mystery to most.
"He has great fighting skills, a solid upbringing, and good looks," Kristian explained, though each word seemed to tug at something inside him. “More than..." “... that, he treats Freya with genuine care. If he keeps that up, he'll always deserve her trust."
