Jason was speechless.
With so many relatives present today, the incident would surely reach Nathan and Heidi’s ears even
though they had gone abroad.
The two of them were already averse to Rodney. Hence, this incident would only offend them even
more. Ryan was their only son, and they usually pampered him a lot. Yet, Rodney heaped so much
humiliation on him tonight.
After some time, Old Master Snow said, “Handing Snow Corporation to Jessica might be the best
decision. I’ve gotten over it. If Rodney were to take over the company, he might screw it up. He’s not
cool-headed enough. Bear Freya’s words in mind. Don’t ever let him take Dani to Sarah. Seeing how
badly my grandson has been trampled on, I don’t want my granddaughter to be ruined too.”
Jason and Wendy nodded.
They could tell that Old Master Snow had completely given up on Rodney.
Even they stopped having expectations of Rodney, let alone Old Master Snow.
They would just let Rodney do whatever he wanted in the future.
As the van traveled on the road, Freya looked out the window quietly.
She realized that she would be in a bad mood whenever she met Rodney.
She had no idea how other couples ended up after they were divorced, but she could only be enemies
with Rodney.
The car stopped in The Lodge’s car park.
After she got out of the car, Ryan wheeled her into the house. Freya turned around and said to Ryan
politely, “You can go back and rest. You must be tired today. I’ll put Dani to sleep tonight. She can’t
possibly rely on you all the time.”
“I don’t mean for Dani to rely on me all the time either. This is just for the time being. You’ll be able to
put her to sleep after you recover.”
Ryan’s deep, dark eyes were fixed on her. “You don’t care about what Rodney said tonight, do you?”
Freya was at a loss for words.
Of course, she did. On her way back, she even wondered whether Ryan was interested in her.
“You’re overthinking it.”
Ryan smirked playfully. “Try to recall how we first met.”
Freya was momentarily stunned. She could surely recall it. She met him the day Nathan and Heidi
acknowledged her as their goddaughter. After they came with Ryan, she addressed them as ‘godfather’
and ‘godmother’. At that time, Ryan looked at her curiously while standing at the side.
Ryan said in a provoking tone, “Before you were pregnant, you didn’t even wear any makeup. You
looked pale and frail. And when you got pregnant, you had a giant belly, and your face was as big as a
plate. After you gave birth to Dani, you looked even worse during your confinement. With your
appearance, how could I possibly have fallen in love with you? Don’t overthink it.”
Freya was instantly maddened by his words. “Ryan Snow, do you know how to speak nicely? You’re
the one who has a face as big as a plate. Did I look that bad? Who wouldn’t get fat during pregnancy?”
“You’re mad at me for telling you the truth. Are you only interested in hearing nice things?” Ryan
mocked.
“Yes. I only want to hear nice things. Although I’m fat, my features are pronounced, and I’m still a great
beauty. Get out. I don’t want to see you.”
Freya lost her temper. “Fine, fine. I’ll get out.”
Ryan walked away with a helpless expression.
Only after he walked out of the villa did his handsome face sink in frustration.
If possible, he wished to tell Freya that he liked her.
He was not concerned about what his relatives would gossip about it.
However, if he said it, Freya would shun him. Then, the two of them would no longer be the same
around each other anymore.
That was not what he wanted.
