“The prime minister thinks that Ryan’s personal matters have caused a commotion, which has brought
great negative influence upon the prime minister’s office. As the prime minister, he can’t show
favoritism because Ryan is his son. After this, Secretary Snow will not be participating in work related
to internal government affairs. He’s planning to further his studies and pursue a Ph.D.”
The reporter asked, “Is the prime minister supportive of Ryan and Freya being together?”
“The prime minister is neither supportive nor against it. He thinks that Secretary Snow is an adult. Love
is about freedom, and he can’t meddle in those affairs. However, the prime minister and his wife have
officially ended their relationship with Freya as godparents and goddaughter.”
The interview was swiftly uploaded on the internet.
When Freya, who had yet left for the company, saw it, she was shocked. She did not expect Ryan to
resign out of the blue.
No, it was not out of the blue. He did mention in his post yesterday that he was willing to resign.
However, Freya thought he was just fooling the netizens.
She could not believe that…
Such a decent job was gone in an instant. Freya quickly contacted Ryan, feeling distraught. “Did you
resign?”
“Yeah,” Ryan said as he smiled. “From now on, I’ll have more time to spend with you.”
“Are you crazy?” Freya’s whole body trembled in anger. “Why did you resign? Being the prime
minister’s secretary is such a good role. The netizens are already on our side. No one will blame you.”
Freya was stunned. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. What have you gained? So many people
are jealous of your position.”
“It’s precisely because too many people are envious. All they see is my age and parents but not my
true abilities.”
Ryan said gently, “The people around me might know, but what about the public? They will say that I’m
in that position only because of my parents. That’s why so many people are jealous. My resignation
may seem like I’m suffering a loss, but will the public think that? With the online comments already in
our favor, my resignation will build an image of a responsible person who keeps his words, and the
public will sympathize with me. This image will bring lots of benefits to my parents, such as them
educating their children well as the prime minister.”
Freya was astonished.
She had never thought about the matter in such complexity.
Sure enough, Ryan’s brain was not one hers could compare.
“Freya, we can see the bigger picture when we take a step back. I’m still young. Only by resigning
could I back out without a stain on my reputation this time. After this, I’ll have more time to spend with
you and pursue a Ph.D. After completing my studies, I can work at the Minister of Foreign Affairs again.
I’ll be 30 and independent with excellent credentials to show. That way, I’ll be able to take it further in
my career.”
Ryan said, “A temporary loss isn’t a big deal.”
Freya opened her mouth, but she was at a loss for words.
“Alright. You don’t have to feel guilty. Besides, even if I resign, I can still be the prime minister’s advisor.
Freya, don’t underestimate me.”
“How could I? You’re so capable.” Freya pouted.
Ryan chuckled. “Wait for me. I’ll come over and meet you in the evening. Let’s have a meal together
tonight. I miss you a lot.”
“Why do you miss me? We just met yesterday,” Freya said deliberately.
“Really? But I feel like a long time has passed since yesterday, and we’ve gone through a lot.”
Deep down, Freya sighed. She had the same thought as well.
