“It’s simple. Rodney lived with Sarah for over ten years. After they got married and lived together,
Sarah constantly brainwashed him. Judging from her character, she could justify her wrongdoing and
make herself seem like the most innocent victim. Rodney must’ve been influenced by her.”
Catherine reminded Freya, “Have you forgotten about Sarah abusing animals? What a cruel act. When
Rodney discovered the matter later, he, too, felt that she was cruel. But in the end, he suppressed the
matter and let it fly under the radar. What does that show? It shows that his moral standards have been
lowered over and over again.”
Freya was startled.
She did not ponder over it back then. However, now that Catherine reminded her, it hit Freya that she
probably had never understood Rodney, the man who used to be her husband.
If possible, she hoped that Rodney would not be so embarrassing.
It was because he was Dani’s father, which was a fact that could not be erased.

In the morning, Freya sat in her office instead of going to the laboratory.
When it was almost noon, Wendy called her. “Freya, let’s have lunch together.”
“Aunty Wendy, I just had breakfast with my godmother this morning.” Freya could not be bothered to
exchange pleasantries with her. Hence, she asked in a forthright manner, “Are you trying to talk me into
breaking up with Ryan?”
“Yes.” Wendy said helplessly, “Freya, we’re happy that you’re in a new relationship and starting your life
afresh, but the guy shouldn’t be Ryan. Listen to me and break up with him. It’ll do everyone good.”
“Your grandpa didn’t sleep last night. After all, this is ridiculous. Plus… Rodney can’t get his head
around it either. I’m doing this for your own good,” Wendy said earnestly. She could not even handle
her son.
“Aunty Wendy, my relationship is my affair. Ever since Rodney and I got a divorce, we no longer have
anything to do with each other. Even if someone were to stop me, it should be Ryan’s parents and not
you. I have a lot on my plate, so bye for now.”
Freya immediately hung up.
At that moment, she was upset.
What did her relationship have to do with Rodney?
Did she have to get Rodney’s approval before getting into a relationship with anyone?
Who was he to do that?
The more Freya thought about it, the more furious she got.
She did not even go to work at noon and drove home early instead.
When she was almost at the neighborhood gate, a black car suddenly sped toward her from the other
side.
Shocked, Freya promptly slammed on the brakes to avoid hitting the car.
She got out of the car, angry. “Do you know how to drive…”
