Chapter 2161

Since Ryan wanted to make Freya jealous, Catherine did not mind making Ryan jealous too.

“Isn’t that the professional makeup artist, George Kelly? Let’s go and talk to him.” Catherine pulled
Eliza away lightly and hinted at her with her eyes.

Eliza quickly got the hint and joked to Freya, “Cathy and I are going over to say hi. You can talk to
Peter for a while here. Maybe he can introduce our brand to his fans.”

“I’ll try my best.” Stunned, Freya also spoke jokingly and nodded with a smile.

After Catherine and Eliza had walked a distance, Eliza said, “You’re not trying to set up Peter and
Freya together, are you? I admit that Peter is handsome, but men in the entertainment industry are too
complicated…”

“Of course not, but perhaps admiring some good looks once in a while will make Freya’s mood better.”
Catherine took her phone out as she laughed. Then, she sent a message to her assistant, Hans:
[Arrange for Freya to sit with Peter later and make the live camera zoom in on them more.]

Hans: [Are you trying to market Manager Lynch and Peter as a couple? Does Miss Lynch know about
this? Peter’s fans are all very young. They might not be able to accept it…]

Catherine: [You’re overthinking it. I’m not making them a couple. Just do as I say.]

…

In a private room, smoke filled the air.

Ryan was listening to a drunk deputy minister nagging about old times.



His head felt uncomfortable from the smoke. After taking a sip of coffee, he took his phone from the
table and casually scrolled through his Instagram.

Ryan had started following Catherine on Instagram back when Freya was hospitalized and when
Catherine was taking care of her.

Usually, he did not pay much attention to Catherine.

However, Catherine had posted six pictures 20 minutes ago. There was a picture of Freya and a
handsome young man standing close to each other, taking a picture. That night, Freya was wearing a
light pink dress, which accentuated her skin to look as white as snow. When she smiled, her deep-set,
mixed-race features made her look bright and exotically charming.



Ryan narrowed his clear eyes.

Freya was smiling so sweetly with another man. Moreover, he recognized that man.

It was not because he had not met that guy before in the entertainment industry. In fact, I had seen
Freya watching dramas starring the male celebrity when he visited her while she was at home resting
some time ago.

He had once watched a drama with her for a short while. He thought the plot was campy, but Freya
said she did not care about the plot. She was only watching the drama because she liked the male
lead.

Every woman had the right to adore celebrities. However, it would be troublesome if that behavior
extended into their real lives.



Ryan suddenly stood up. “It suddenly struck me that I have some urgent business tonight. I have to go
now. I’ll treat everyone to a meal on another day.”

Before waiting for everyone’s reply, he quickly grabbed his jacket and left.

When he went downstairs, he could not drive because he had been drinking. As such, he took a taxi to
the banquet.

On the way, he called Freya several times, but no one picked up.

Ryan had no choice but to enter Freycatheli’s official Facebook account’s live stream. As many top
artists were attending the event that night, tens of millions of viewers were watching the live stream.

Freycatheli’s banquet had just started not long ago. Two very popular broadcast station emcees were
invited onto the stage to host the event.

A famous female singer was performing when Ryan joined the live stream. The view switched to the
audience below the stage from time to time. He quickly spotted Freya, Eliza, and Catherine sitting
together in the front row. However, Peter Maddison was sitting on Freya’s other side. While other
people were watching the performance, Freya and Peter were whispering to each other.

Ryan was not the only one who noticed it. In the comments section of the live stream, many of Peter
Maddison’s fans had noticed it too.

[Ahh! I finally saw our Pete. But who’s that beautiful woman beside him? She’s as pretty as a fairy.]

[I saw it too. Pete is smiling so happily, and the fairy is too.]
