Let me go, Mr. Hill Novel [By Shallow South] Chapter 2180 Mrs. Lynch said protectively, âI heard about what happened during the wedding. Linda kept spreading rumors about our daughter. She deserves it. In my opinion, Linda is a hateful person. She mightâve offended many people. The same goes for Director Cartman. He already has one foot in the grave, but he still fools around with countless women.â
âI didnât say anything. I was just asking,â Mr. Lynch said disappointedly, âAfter all, weâve lived in this place for tens of years. We had business exchanges with them, but I never knew they liked to gossip so much behind peopleâs backs. Itâs good that weâre leaving Melbourne soon.â
âThatâs right. Our daughter wasnât even gossiped about that way in Canberra.â
Mrs. Lynch was utterly dissatisfied.
Freyaâs mood improved when she saw how her parents protected her.
Two days later, she and her mom went to the mall with Dani. Mrs. Lynch bought many new clothes and food for her daughter and granddaughter.
Melbourneâs atmosphere before the new year was lively. Mr. Lynch was the most successful person in the Lynch family. The Lynch familyâs relatives would come over to the villa to celebrate the new year together every year.
On that day, Mrs. Lynch and the housekeeper would be busy making steak and baked potatoes.
New Yearâs Eve finally came, and all of their relatives came over.
Freya ate snacks and watched the television with her relatives while taking care of Dani.
Dani might be very young, but she was the apple of everyoneâs eyes. Everyone liked carrying her and playing with her.
Dani was beaming from ear to ear when she saw so many people.
When it was almost dinnertime, Ryan sent a Whatsapp message: [Iâve arrived in Melbourne.]
Cough.
Freya was so startled that she almost choked on her pistachio.
She quickly went upstairs with her phone. âDidnât you promise me that you wonât come over? Are you kidding me?â
âWhat I promised back then was that I wouldnât come over tomorrow. Thatâs why Iâm here on New Yearâs Eve.â
When he finished speaking, there was some noise on the other end of the phone.
âExcuse me, Sir.
âThe exit is this way.â
ââ¦â
Freya found it unbelievable. âAre you at the airport?â
âMm. I called you right after the airplane landed.â Ryan smiled and lowered his gentle, soft voice. âIâve not seen you in a long time. I really miss you.â
It was just a simple sentence but across the phone, Freya felt as if an electric shock had pulsed through her heart. She hated herself for being weak. During her time in Melbourne, she had not thought much about Ryan. However, he just had to come over and make her heart a mess again.
âRyan, go back. Itâs New Yearâs Eve tonight. You should be at the manor accompanying your parents and grandfather,â Freya said.
âMy parents arenât in Melbourne tonight. Theyâve gone to a countdown event in Perth. I initially had some work to do, but I finished it beforehand.â
