Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
“Why are you so nervous?” Ryan smiled vaguely. “
You don’t even have any feelings for her. You should be happy that there’s an excellent man who likes
her.”
Rodney went silent for a moment from being rebuked and then spoke again, “I’m just afraid that the
Snow family will become a joke, okay?
Moreover, Uncle Nathan is about to be the prime minister. Shouldn’t you, as his son, create less trouble
for him?”
“I have no problems with my behavior, and I’m more well-behaved than you. You have no right to say
those words to me,” Ryan retorted. He was unconvinced.
Rodney let out a hmph. “Anyway, Grandpa will never agree to let you marry a pregnant woman. Your
parents won’t allow it either. Don’t make a mess to the point you get chased out of the Snow family like
me.”
“Aren’t you coming back now after being chased out? How will you know the results without trying t o
fight for something?” Ryan folded his arms across his chest. He looked languid.
“You…” Rodney gritted his teeth speechlessly. It was the first time he realized Rodney was so irritating.
“Let’s go back to the Snow family.” Ryan turned around elegantly.
After Rodney brushed his teeth and washed his face, he changed into Ryan’s clothes and went back to
the Snow family’s residence with him.
He was quite nervous during the trip back. However, after he stepped in through the door, he realized
that everyone was not ostracizing him that much anymore. He was so touched that tears almost welled
up in his eyes.
He knelt on a cushion with a loud thud. “Grandpa, I promise I won’t repeat my previous mistakes. Do you
really… agree to let me come back?”
Old Master Snow let out a hmph. “ I didn’t want to agree at first. However, since Freya made the request
and pleaded with me, I can only follow her wishes.”
Although Ryan had told Rodney about it before, Rodney’s heart trembled once again when he heard it
from his grandpa’s mouth.
“I won’t say any more. I only agreed because of Freya. After all, the Snow family owes her. Look out for
yourself from now on. Since you’ve ended
things with Sarah, don’t contact her anymore in the future. If this happens another time, it’ll be useless
even if a king pleads for you.” Old Master Rodney walked away with the aid of his cane after he finished
speaking.
Rodney simply knelt there in a daze. He was absent- minded. He could really… come back.
“Get up.” Wendy helped him up.
“Mom…” Rodney gazed at his mother. He felt bitter. “I’m sorry. I’ve made you and Dad worry about me.”
“Since your grandpa said it’s in the past, let it be bygones.” Wendy sighed. There was a trace of regret
deep within her eyes. “You haven’t come
back for a long time. Go to your room and have a rest.”
“Mom, what exactly did Freya tell you all?” Rodney could not resist asking.
After a moment of silence, Wendy said, “She suddenly came over last night and said she hoped that
your grandpa would agree to let you return to
the Snow family. She said you’ve been apologizing to her lately. She said she understood the Snow
family’s and your intentions, but she doesn’t want to be tied to you because of the child. The love she
yearns for is true love between two people.
“She requested us to consider her feelings and not use every method to make you and her get together.
Only the elders would be happy in that case, but both of you, as the people involved, won’t be happy. If
we didn’t agree, she’d leave the Snow family and abort the baby.”
Rodney was stunned. He did not expect Freya to say such words in front of his grandpa. “Was she not
afraid that Grandpa would be angry?”
“Your grandpa was slightly angry at first, but he figured it out afterward. Your grandpa is smart. Freya is
smart too. She gave you and the Snow family a way out. Actually, we were too selfish. Back then, we
wanted you to pursue Freya and you could only return to the Snow family after you marry her. One of the
reasons was because we wanted to bring both of you together. Secondly, it would indeed be a dishonor
to the Snow family if we agreed to let you return after publicly cutting all ties with you.
Therefore, Freya gave us a way out. Think about it,
we were all too much. We didn’t care about her feelings and never asked whether she was willing to or
not.”
Wendy patted Rodney’s shoulders. “What she said was right. Some things can’t be forced. You don’t
have to pursue her anymore. We know there’s no attraction between you both. You can just treat her as
your cousin in the future.”
“… Cousin?” Rodney was dumbfounded. That word made him very uncomfortable.
Ryan laughed and said from the side. “Brother Rodney, you must be quite happy now, right?”
