Catherine consoled Freya. “Also, it was Shaun’s order. He said Hans is competent, so he told me to
hire him.”
Upon learning that it was Shaun’s order, Freya stopped opposing the idea strongly. After all, Shaun
was a business prodigy from whom Catherine and Freya needed to learn.
“I’ve checked on Hans. He didn’t leave the company because of Rodney’s downfall but because of his
bad reputation. Hans’ girlfriend and family didn’t want him to work for Rodney anymore for fear that
Rodney would influence him and he would start having an affair of his own. I’ve talked to Hans. He
disapproves of Rodney’s deeds too, but Rodney just wouldn’t listen to him back then.”
Freya nodded. “But with Hans’ competence, he can easily get a job anywhere. Why would he come to
a small start-up like Freycatheli?”
“Our company might be small now, but it doesn’t mean that it’ll remain small in the future.”
Catherine rolled her eyes at Freya sourly. ” Who doesn’t know Freycatheli’s background? I have Hill
Corporation and Uncle Titus’ backing while you have the executive council’s backing. Many people out
there are fighting hard to enter our company. Having said that, I did go the extra mile to poach Hans. I
gave him and his girlfriend a bridal apartment.”
Freya gaped. “The houses in Canberra are really expensive.”
“They are, but Hudson is a real estate corporation. Houses are the last thing I need.” Catherine
laughed. “Over the years, Hans has taken charge of almost everything in Osher. He even dealt with
certain matters alone. His resources and ideas are worth much more than an apartment, When Rodney
was thinking about holding a wedding with Sarah, he probably didn’t expect that I’d poach Hans.
Haha.”
“…”
Freya kept quiet. She looked at Catherine as though she was a f*cking awesome powerhouse. “Cathy,
I realized that you’ve become so brilliant now. Did you learn such a trick from Shaun?”
“After all, it’s going to have some impact. Anyhow, I’ve promised you that I’d trample on Rodney.”
Catherine snorted. “Let’s wait for him to get his butt here, bow to you, and call you President Lynch
obediently.”
Freya’s eyes reddened. She hugged Catherine before returning to her office.
She knew that Catherine was trying her best to stand up for her. Nevertheless, she found it hard to get
over it.
She took out her phone and sent Ryan a sticker expressing sadness.
Ryan: [???]
Freya: [I’m in a bad mood.]
Rodney: [Who offended you? Let me punch him or her.]
Freya: [It was Rodney. Will you help me punch him?]
Ryan: [Alright, I will…]
Freya thought that he might be joking. Even so, she lowered her head and replied: [Just kidding. I just
heard he’s going to hold a wedding with Sarah. Be honest with me, did you know about it long ago?
Actually, I don’t dislike him, but I just… feel sorry for myself. Everyone out there must be laughing at me
because I’ve already given birth to a child but I didn’t even hold a wedding. I’m just an object of
ridicule.]
Ryan: [I only found out yesterday. Jessica isn’t allowing any of the Snows to attend his wedding, so
Sarah will be the laughing stock of the whole of Canberra then.]
Freya was stunned. [Were you the one who told Jessica to do that?]
Ryan: [This was Jessica’s order. Freya, I understand your feelings. Don’t worry. I believe someone will
truly love you and hold a grand wedding for you. You’ll then become the woman whom everyone
admires.]
Freya was amused. [You’ve got to be kidding me. That’d be my second marriage. Plus, I already have
a child. Even if I meet my future partner, our relationship won’t be that simple.]
Ryan: [With your pretty and cute looks, many men will fall for you. You just don’t understand men’s
thoughts.]
