Was Freya not clear about whether he liked men or not?
Freya shrugged her shoulders.
Mrs. Lynch put her fork down and made a stern face. âYour sisterâs words aren't wrong. Look at you. You're already 30 years old, yet you donât even have a girlfriend. I told you to go on blind dates, but they always end without a conclusion after just a few interactions. Are you really not planning to get married? If you keep delaying this, women of similar status won't even consider you anymore no matter how good your characteristics are.
They'll think thereâs something wrong with you.â
Forrest's handsome face looked awful and tense. âI don't care.â
âI care,â Mrs. Lynch said sternly. âLook at your sister. She even has a child anda boyfriend. You should learn from her. Her speed is on par with yours, considering that sheâs a divorcee and found another boyfriend. You might not even have a girlfriend yet when she gets married again.â
Forrest pressed his thin lips together and did not say a word.
Whenever the topic of him getting a girlfriend was brought up at home, he would just keep quiet and feign ignorance.
âT'll die of anger because of you one day.â Mrs. Lynch was extremely furious.
âI donât care. You have to get a girlfriend before summer. If you prefer men... I can't stop you from being happy, but you must have a child.â
âBrother, look at the extent you've forced Mom.â Freya gave her brother a profound glance.
âBabe, have some fish.â Ryan got a piece of fish for her.
After taking a bite happily, her expression turned awful all of a sudden.
âRyan, you didnât even remove the bones. What do you mean by this?â
âI did remove them.â Ryan went closer to have to look. He quickly said apologetically, âI didnât spot the ones inside. Be careful.â '
âHmph.â
Freya let out a dainty hmph.
Mrs. Lynch held her forehead. She did not know that her daughter was so demanding. She hoped that Freya would not scare her boyfriend away with her demands.
Both her son and daughter made Mrs. Lynch worried.
Mr. Lynch scolded, âItâs good enough that Ryan is serving you food. Donât be so difficult.â
After pausing for a moment, he spoke again, âIs it because you're too demanding that itâs scaring your brother from getting a girlfriend?â
Mrs. Lynch did not give Freya a chance to speak. âForrest, your sister is an exception. You must still have faith in love.â
Freya showed a wronged expression. â I'm being falsely accused. The reason Forrest isn't getting a girlfriend isââ
âI'm full.â Forrest stood up all of a sudden and left.
Everyone was taken aback. Freya opened her mouth, but she forgot what she was about to say.
Right then, Ryan held her small hand beneath the table.
Mrs. Lynch sighed. âAh, your brother has had a cold face ever since he was young. I donât know what heâs thinking in that mind of his.â
However, Mr. Lynch did not forget what his daughter was about to say. âFreya, do you know why your brother isn't looking for a girlfriend?â
âHow would! know?â Freya denied it in a hurry. âMaybe itâs because my brother has been facing a great beauty like me since he was young. In addition, Catherine is also very pretty. His standards might've become sky-high. The women Mom introduced were pretty, but theyâre just moderate compared to a great beauty like me.â Ryan almost burst out laughing. His woman was truly shameless at some times.
âDo you think my words donât make sense?â Freya raised her eyebrows and gave him a dangerous stare.
âThey make sense.â Ryan nodded hurriedly. âIf you participate in a beauty pageant, you'll definitely be the winner.â
