Chapter 2143

Ryan pressed his lips together and did not say a word as if he was silently admitting it.

Freya forced a smile. “I’ll congratulate you ahead of time, then. It looks like I have to prepare a present
soon…”

“Do you wish for me to get married?” Ryan pulled her and stared into her eyes.

Freya brushed his hand away and continued walking with her head lowered. She replied casually, “I’m
not the one who’s getting married. It’s your own affairs. However, Godmother asked me to advise you.
You can only remove the negative news outside through marriage. Godfather has given his orders as
well. If you keep dragging things out and not get a girlfriend, he’ll think that you still can’t forget about
that man. By that time, it’s your career that’ll be damaged.

“You have to understand that it’s not certain Godfather can be re elected as prime minister. Therefore,
he can only help you for these few years. If you don’t grab this opportunity, it’ll be hard for you to
advance in the future. This is what Godmother told me last night.”

“Do I look like someone who has to rely on my parents to achieve greater heights?” Ryan’s voice
turned cold. His usually gentle face was obviously unhappy. “Am I that incompetent in your heart?”

Freya was stunned.

On a winter morning where the sun was shining brightly, things were disastrous here.

“That’s not what I mean. I’m clear of your abilities. I just think we can take some shortcuts sometimes.
With the help of our parents, we can avoid many twists and turns in life.”



Freya shrugged self-deprecatingly. “Maybe I should just mind my own business, but Godmother told
me to persuade you. Forget it. I won’t meddle in your matters anymore.”

She turned around to leave after she spoke. She did feel aggrieved in her heart.

She was just advising Ryan kindly. Why was his tone toward her so cold?

Heidi had told Freya to advise him, but he did not like it. Sometimes, Freya was troubled being stuck in
the middle.

Ryan gazed at her angry silhouette from behind. He wanted to say something else, but the dining hall
was in front. He pressed his lips together and chose to keep silent.



Throughout the entire breakfast, Freya was quiet. On the other hand, Nathan and Heidi would ask
Ryan about yesterday’s blind date from time to time.

Freya simply took a few bites and finished her breakfast. She went to the company early.

When she arrived at the company, she gave Forrest a call. “Brother, when will our family’s villa’s
renovation be done?”

“I’m already urging the workers to speed up on it,” Forrest said, “But such a huge courtyard and house
can’t be done instantly. Besides, it has to be safe for Dani to live in after the renovation. We have to
leave it empty for a few months, so it’ll only be ready earliest by May next year.”

It meant that Freya had to stay in the official residence for five more months.

She was depressed.



“What happened?” Forrest asked, “Is it uncomfortable staying in the official residence? Did the Snow
family mistreat you again?”

“No. My godparents are nice to me. They’re nice to Dani too.”

Freya stammered, “It’s just not convenient staying in the official residence. For example, you guys have
to go through strict registration and procedures to come in to meet me. Moreover… Moreover, Ryan’s
getting married next year. It’ll be uncomfortable when his newlywed bride moves in.”

Forrest thought about it for a while. He said, “Freya, you can move and live with me, but have you
considered that the prime minister and the others will overthink it if you suddenly move out despite
them treating you well? Besides, I’m always on business trips. Dani and the sitter will be at home. What
if Rodney comes and snatches Dani away? I won’t be able to be on guard 24/7 to protect Dani. As for
Dad and Mom, they’re busy handling some trivial company matters in Melbourne, They can’t come
over for now.”

Freya went silent. Yes, she did have those worries as well. Therefore, she kept staying in the official
residence even after her divorce.

“The official residence is big and safe. Dani can live free of worries there,” Forrest kept persuading her.
“We’ll live with Dani in the future. There’s no need to rush things. As for Ryan’s marriage, I don’t think
they’ll get married right after New Year’s. They have to make preparations for a few months at least.
When the bride moves in, you can definitely move into our family’s villa too.”

“Okay.” Freya had no other excuses to refute him.
