Rodney stood rooted to the ground in a daze for a long time.
The conversation with Forrest suddenly enlightened him.
Would it be fine as long as he treated Freya the same way he did Sarah from now on?
Upstairs.
Freya lay in bed with her thoughts flashing in her mind at a thousand miles an hour.
That *sshole Rodney actually said he liked her. He liked her?
What the f*ck. What did he like about her? She could not tell at all.
Was he just saying that so she would stay as a free milk-giver?
She suddenly sat up and called Catherine. However… no one answered.
She was depressed. She could only talk about such matters of the heart with Catherine.
Since Catherine did not answer, she would try harder.
After five or six calls, Catherine’s voice suddenly sounded. However, her voice sounded indescribably
flirtatious.
Next to her was Shaun’s annoyed and husky voice. “ Who is it? They must be insane for calling so
many times.”
“Shut up and get lost, ” Catherine scolded him. “Cathy…”
“ It’s Freya. It might be something important. Get out already.” Catherine had to beg him.
“Then, I’ ll come in later,” Shaun said reluctantly and finally left.
Freya looked at the time and felt like she was struck by lighting. “What the f*ck. Did I interrupt you two
doing… that?”
“No, it’s almost 11 a.m. now, and you’re still in bed?” Freya was shocked. “Are you guys that hungry for
each other? Don’t you get tired?”
“Shut up.” Catherine’s face flushed red. “You don’t understand. We have children, so… some things
can only be done in the day.”
“Tsk tsk. You’ve changed, Cathy. You’ve fallen. Shaun has led you astray. You—”
“Why did you call me so many times?” Catherine interrupted her and forcibly changed the subject. “ Are
you going to tell me you actually got divorced?”
“No.” Freya immediately remembered the real purpose, and a complicated feeling welled up in her
again. “But it’s quite shocking. Rodney actually confessed to me. He said he likes me, but what do you
think he means? Does he think that if he says he likes me, I will be willing to stay as a mother, provide
milk, and give his child a complete family all for free? Is he toying with me? How could he possibly like
me?”
“Why is it impossible?”
“Is what he did to me proof of how he likes me? Look at how he treated Sarah in the past. He treated
her like his goddess, but he has never treated me well before. All he knows how to do is make me
angry. He called me an idiot and said that he gets sick when he sees me, that no other man in the
world would marry me if he didn’t marry me. Do you think he would have dared to say such words to
Sarah?”
Catherine was almost shaken by what she said.
However, she suddenly remembered that Shaun and Rodney went drinking last night.
“I think you think too highly of Rodney, ” Catherine said. “With his EQ he’s not smart enough to say that
he likes you just to trick you into giving the child a complete home. He’s not a despicable person by
nature. The things he did before were because someone tricked him.”
“That’s true…” Catherine smiled. “Why can’t Rodney like you? We were the two most beautiful girls
back in Melbourne. When we were students, you received as many love letters as I did. When we went
out, we were the focus of attention no matter where we went. Besides, if he could like a woman like
Sarah, isn’t it normal that he would like you?”
