Freya got even more irritated. [If you’re not angry, why did your reply come so late?]
Ryan: [Oh, I was in the middle of a call with Summer.]
“….”
Summer. It was Summer again.
Freya was exasperated.
She threw her phone aside angrily and did not want to talk to Ryan at all.
Ryan sent a reply message: [Why aren’t you replying?]
Freya sneered.
She sent him a message, and he only replied after an hour. Yet when she did not reply, he immediately
came and asked her about it. Why did he not think about how long he had made her wait?
Freya: [Because I don’t want to disturb your call with Summer.]
Ryan: [We’ve ended the call.]
Freya: [Oh, no wonder Young Master Snow finally has the mood to talk to me.]
Ryan: [Why are you being sarcastic?]
Freya: [I just can’t stand a certain someone who prioritizes love more than friends.]
Ryan: [You can’t possibly be talking about me, right?]
Freya: [Haha. When I was with my blind date, I always replied to your messages first. I even
abandoned my blind date to watch a movie with you on Christmas night. But what about you? You
seem to have completely forgotten about me now that you have a girlfriend.]
Ryan: [I don’t have a girlfriend.]
Freya: [Hah! You already brought her back to meet your parents. She’ll be your girlfriend soon.
Besides, I wasn’t blind last night. I saw you two were being lovey-dovey.]
Five minutes later, Ryan sent over a long message: [That’s true. Summer and I might be officially
dating each other soon. Freya, you’re clear about how much the previous scandal had impacted me.
My parents are forcing me to get married, and I need a marriage partner too. Summer is a nice lady. If I
get married next year, I’ll surely have to divide part of my attention to my wife and children…]
Freya read the long message in a daze.
She understood what Ryan meant. If he were to get married next year, he would not be able to
exchange messages with her, eat out with her, watch movies with her, or go on a walk with Dani as
often as before.
She would be alone again in the future.
Being alone was no big deal.
Had she not prepared herself mentally for it when she divorced Rodney?
However, why would the thought of Ryan accompanying his future wife and children make her heart
feel so empty?
She still wanted him to be with her like before.
Nevertheless, Freya knew it was impossible, just like how it would be for her biological brother, Forrest.
Once he got married and had his own family, he would give most of his time to his wife and children in
the future after getting married and having children.
She would be happy for her brother to build a family and career of his own even though it meant he had
to abandon her. However, she was not happy if Ryan abandoned her. On the contrary, she was
flustered, afraid, unwilling, and wistful.
What was wrong with her?
Was she crazy?
After a long while, Freya replied: [Oh, okay.]
She would not disturb him as she did in the past anymore.
