“It’s already announced. What else can I think about?”
Freya gazed at the bright moon in the dark sky. She suddenly felt relaxed. “Actually, Ryan knows me
very well. I was happy being with him during this period. However, we always had to wear masks,
sneak around, and be very cautious whenever we went out. Sometimes, I felt like what we had was
stolen happiness. He would always talk to me about things far away into the future, but I didn’t even
dare to think about them. I was scared, but not anymore. Who cares? Let’s just go with the flow.
However, if the company’s reputation is tarnished, I’d feel extremely sorry to you all.”
“Don’t say that. People are not fools. Even I was touched, not to mention everyone else. There might
be some extreme individuals, but I believe that your relationship with Ryan will be supported by others.”
Catherine said sincerely, “Freya, actually, I wasn’t really supportive of you risking everything for Ryan
during the day. However, it’s clear he’s willing to risk everything for you. Don’t be too timid. Ryan is very
good to you. He’s worth your effort. He’s not a man who’s just all talk.”
“Thank you.”
Freya choked up again.
“Okay. You can go on the internet to reply to Ryan now. You can’t let him face everything alone. You,
the person involved, should at least give a response. As for the company, we’ll release a statement
saying that your personal life is unrelated to work. I believe the whole company will be on your side.”
“Mm.”
Freya replied in a low voice.
After calming herself down for some time, she finally logged onto Facebook and shared Ryan’s post
with a caption: [We’re in a relationship. I wasn’t brave enough in the past, but in the future, I’ll do my
best for your sake.]
Not long after, Eliza shared her post too. [I support my friend. Actually, the world isn’t always fair to
women. Men in their second or third marriage can marry a young wife who has never been married. It
seems like a matter of course to other people, yet women who are divorced and starting over face
many criticisms. I wish to say that as long as our hearts are frank and open, every woman has the right
to obtain happiness.]
Freya could not hold back her laughter after seeing that.
Her heart was warm and touched.
What did it matter if she had to face a storm tomorrow? Her friends and the people she loved were all
by her side.
…
Late into the night, the whole of Australia was shaken up by the news of the prime minister’s son and
Freya dating. It even made it to the news overseas.
In the official residence, Nathan smashed a cup out of anger on the spot after seeing the statement
Ryan posted.
“Ryan, have you really gone crazy? I told you to announce your relationship. After discussing with the
team for so long, you chose to do it this way?”
Nathan patted his chest. He almost had a heart a****k. “What did you write? You’re telling everyone
that you’ve been secretly in love with your sister-in-law before she even got divorced? These kinds of
things should never be written! Can’t you write that you developed feelings for her after staying in the
official residence with her?”
“Dad, I initially thought of writing what you said, but I’m afraid that people might discover flaws. It’s
better to be honest about these things.”
Nathan was stunned. His face darkened instantly. “What flaws? Did something really happen between
you and Freya before she got a divorce?”
“Of course not.”
Ryan was speechless upon hearing that. “Dad, am I that kind of person? But… I did help her in private
a few times before she was divorced. If I wrote as you said, Rodney would ask why I treated her so
nicely if I only started liking her after they divorced. That’s why there shouldn’t be any flaws in my
words. Besides, even if Freya isn’t divorced now, there’s nothing wrong with me having a crush on her.
Everything I said is the truth. I’m honest and upright. I’m not afraid of criticism.”
Nathan covered his face with his hand. “You… I don’t know what I should say to you. It’s not wrong to
have a crush on someone, but the person you like is your sister -in-law. She’s your parents’
goddaughter.”
