Let me go, Mr. Hill Novel [By Shallow South] Chapter 2174 Freya had received 143 dollars of pocket money from Ryan.
People who had dated before would know that 143 stood for âI love youâ.
He was so annoying.
After cursing him mentally, Freya replied: [Stop giving me money. Thereâs no way weâll be together no matter how much money you give me.]
Ryan: [Why is it impossible? Unless thereâs something wrong with your body?]
Freya laughed in exasperation. [Youâre the one who has problems. Iâm as fit as a fiddle.]
Ryan: [Iâm pretty healthy too. Iâll be done with my work tomorrow, so Iâll board a flight tomorrow night to visit you there.]
Freya was startled. [No. Youâre not allowed to come over.]
Ryan: [What can I do? I miss you. I donât even have an appetite when I canât see you.]
Freya was speechless. Why did she not realize before that he was such a smooth talker? [My parents wonât be able to accept it. If you come over, theyâll overthink, and Iâll be angry with you.]
Ryan: [â¦Okay. Iâll video call you in the evening then. Iâll promise you if you let me take a look at you.]
Freya was utterly annoyed by Ryan. She already told him they had to keep a distance, yet she still had to video call with him. It would be so awkward for both of them.
However, things would be worse if he were to come over tomorrow.
As such, Freya could only promise him for now.
Suddenly, a knock came from outside the car window, and Chaseâs smiling face appeared at the window. âI heard from your mom that youâd be attending the banquet today. Arenât you going inside?â
âI was just about to go in.â Freya quickly got out of the car.
Chase eyed her from top to bottom and whistled before he said teasingly, âYouâve gotten prettier after the divorce. Youâre making me want to pursue you.â
âBrother Chase, stop kidding. Everyone knows you have high standards,â Freya joked. âBy the way, when are you planning to get married? Look at Young Master Hillâs children. Theyâre now old enough to do household chores.â
âMarriage cannot be rushed, and it has nothing to do with age. If I meet someone whom I want to spend the rest of my life with, Iâll get married.â Chase shrugged. âAfter all, I canât ruin other girlsâ lives.â
Freya nodded. Despite Chaseâs carefree behavior, he had always been tactful about romantic relationships.
As they were taking the elevator upstairs, Chase suddenly said, âIâm afraid there might be someone you donât wish to see here today.â
Freya was stunned. âAre you talking about Patrick or Linda?â
They were the two people whom she did not want to meet the most in Melbourne.
âThe Harrison family has collaborated with RF Group recently. I heard that Linda has gotten married to RF Groupâs director and is now his second wife.â Chase smiled pensively. âThat director is 70 years old, so itâs pretty interesting.â
The corners of Freyaâs mouth twitched. âHow can Linda fancy a much older guy?â
âShe has no choice since Patrick doesnât want her and everyone knows about the b*tchy things she did. Which wealthy person would want to marry her? She wonât even consider average families, so she can only get married to an older man.â Chase had a mocking look on his face.
Freya was utterly speechless. She wondered what Patrick felt when his childhood sweetheart, whom he thought was kind and innocent, got married to a 70-year-old man for wealth and splendor.
He must have thought he was an idiot.
However, it no longer had anything to do with Freya.
