“Ryan brought his blind date back to the official residence last night. That woman said Dani was
adorable, so Ryan quickly asked for Dani from me to please that woman. ” Freya’s brows were knitted
into a tight frown due to her annoyance. “Dani doesn’t even know that woman, and she’s not a tool to
please women. Besides, children have weak immunity. Who knows if Dani will get germs on her if
strangers were to carry her…”
Catherine was stunned. She poured the coffee beans into the coffee grinder. Then, she raised her
head and glanced at Freya’s expression. Her heart skipped a beat.
Okay, the thing that she was most worried about had happened.
However, Freya herself did not notice it at all.
Of course, she might have sensed it, but it was obvious that she could not accept the truth.
The aroma of coffee wafted in the air.
Freya said in a low voice, “My words were slightly harsh last night, and I think they made me seem like
a petty person. Actually, it’s not that I’m not allowing Ryan to hold Dani and play. Dani usually has a lot
of fun playing with him. However, I think he’s angry. Do you think I should apologize to him? Ryan’s
definitely angry. Usually when I don’t go to the main courtyard for breakfast, he’d surely send me a
message to ask me about it.”
“Freya, the official residence isn’t a place where just anybody can enter. Those who can go in will at
least have to go through a body check and all sorts of disinfection. Besides, you’re not a petty person.
When you brought Dani to the Hill family’s manor in the past, you never had any complaints when
some relatives of the Hill family carried Dani.”
Catherine watched the coffee that was brewing. Her gaze gradually turned resigned and sharp. “Have
you ever thought that… you’re not being petty?
You’re just… jealous.”
“Huh?”
Freya looked as if she had heard a joke. She stood up agitatedly. “How could I be jealous? I treat Ryan
as a family member. I…”
When her gaze met Catherine’s dark, sharp eyes, her words were stuck in her throat. “Maybe… Okay, I
might be a little jealous. After all, Ryan used to be on good terms with me before. When a close friend
abandons you to go date someone else, anyone would be slightly dissatisfied.”
“Only ‘slightly dissatisfied’? Are you sure you’re not very, very, dissatisfied?” Catherine curved her red
lips teasingly.
Freya was about to go crazy. Why did she come over to discuss this with Catherine?
“Forget it. I can’t talk to you anymore. I suddenly remembered there are some things to do at the
laboratory.” Freya lowered her head and walked toward the door.
“Freya, it’s not like you’ve never been in a relationship before. Whether it’s a habit, reliance, or love,
can’t you sense it yourself?” Catherine said behind her, “Look at you during these two days.
You were listless whenever you had lunch with me. You even looked at your phone frequently. That’s
precisely the look of someone waiting for another person’s message. You were like that when you
dated Patrick in the past.”
“Say no more. ” Freya’s pretty face paled. “There’s no way I’m in love with Ryan. Look at his identity,
and look at mine. I’m his godsister.”
“You two aren’t blood-related anyway. You guys live in the same place. You meet each other every
morning and night. When you two can’t meet each other, you’re always chatting with him. He treats you
so well. Now that an unfamiliar woman showed up all of a sudden, you realized that he’d humor
another woman and make her laugh as well. The kindness he showed you in the past is all being given
to another woman now. You’re just uncomfortable with it.”
Was it like that?
Was Freya uncomfortable?
Was it like that?
If not, why did she feel discontent when she saw Ryan placing Summer’s favorite dishes in front of her
and shelling the mantis shrimps for her last night? She did not even have an appetite.
Was she simply not used to it? Was it because she did not want Ryan to treat other people so kindly?
Freya realized she could not continue thinking about it.
Gosh, how did things turn out like this?
“Cathy, it must be because Ryan has been appearing too frequently in my life these days. Maybe it
won’t be this way if I interact with other wonderful guys. Didn’t you say you’d ask Shaun to look for
some good guys for me? Quick, introduce one or two of them to me, ” Freya said desperately.
