“Nothing. I was just chatting with someone.” Freya turned off the screen and placed her phone on the table.

Catherine stared at Freya for a few seconds. She had taken a few glances at Freya’s phone just now and vaguely

saw that the profile picture was of a man. She could not see the earlier messages clearly, but she saw the last two

sentences and found them strange. “Do you have a boyfriend?”

“Huh?” Freya widened her eyes. “I’m in the laboratory every day. Who would I be dating?”

“You’re not dating, but you’re always on your phone sending messages.”

Catherine started recounting. “When we were having lunch at the canteen, you kept chatting with him. You were

also chatting during your break time when I went to the laboratory to look for you. I don’t know what the contents

of your chat were, but you were smiling at the phone for one second, then pouting angrily and looking worried the

next second. How is this situation different compared to

the time you first started dating?”

Freya was stunned. That seemed to be the case. Although she and Ryan did not meet every day lately, they had

been chatting every single day. It was all about trivial stuff in their lives. Sometimes, Ryan would reach out to her

first and share the things that happened to him. Over time, she got used to it. She would even contact him first or

send pictures of her coffee and canteen lunch to him.

However, she did not think it was weird.

She had just gone through a divorce. Apart from the child, her life was pretty empty.

Catherine had her boyfriend and children. Eliza was always busy filming movies, and she was not free lately.

Chatting with Ryan filled up the empty spaces in her life. Sometimes, she would not feel so lonely too.

“Cathy, you’re overthinking. I want to date, but you know I’m prioritizing my daughter and career first. Besides, I’ve

experienced failure after failure in my love life. I’m not that courageous anymore.”

Freya explained, “ I was just chatting with Ryan.”

Traces of doubt appeared on Catherine’s face. “ Freya, could Ryan be… in love with you?”

Freya was speechless. “You’re overthinking. We’re just… siblings, okay?”

She wanted to say they were girl best friends, but she had to be careful as Cathy was sharp.

“Really?” Catherine did not believe it at all. If Ryan and Freya were just siblings, why would he call her ‘ Baby Freya’?

However, looking at Freya’s expression of disbelief, Catherine was puzzled.

“It’s true. I treat Ryan as a friend and a family member, just like what all of you are to me, ” Freya said, “He does

have a nice character. He’s good at bringing me around to eat, and he knows many fun places too. I’ll invite you

when we have a meal together next time.”

“We?” Catherine’s eyebrows moved. “Do you two eat together frequently?”

“A few times, but I’ve always paid. I’ll ask him to treat me next time. ” Freya sighed. “The places he brought me to

were great, but they were quite expensive.”

Catherine clasped her forehead. “Don’ t you only think of going back to accompany Dani after getting off work? You

still have the mood to eat out?”

“We brought Dani along.”

Catherine was experienced in this. “Can you even have a proper meal if you bring your child to eat out with you?”

“I can. Usually, Ryan will be the one taking care of Dani. Dani is also very obedient when she’s with Ryan.”

Catherine did not want to say anything else. She could confirm that Ryan liked Freya. However, it seemed like Freya

was still dense about it.

Was it because bystanders could notice things better than those directly involved?

After returning to the manor at night, Catherine told Shaun about it worriedly. “Do you think Ryan likes Freya? After

all, they aren’t related by blood. I think he definitely has feelings for her.”

Shaun closed his laptop. He reached out his hand and pulled his beloved woman to sit on his thigh. “No matter if he

has feelings or not, he can’t say it right now.”

Catherine lowered her head and looked at her man’s handsome face. “ Is it because Freya is the prime minister’s

goddaughter?”

“Mm. Not only that, Freya is Rodney’s ex-wife. No one will accept that kind of relationship if word of this gets out.

However, do you know who will find it the most unacceptable?” Shaun’s gaze on her was burning. A thought flashed

across Catherine’s head. “ Is it Freya?”
