“You can pretend that you’re meeting your godfather and me. Weren’t you also nervous when you first met us?” Upon seeing Freya’s nervous look, Heidi smiled. “Look how natural you are now. You can even joke with us.”“It’s because we live together and see each other all the time.”Heidi said with a grin, “Think of it this way. You usually have breakfast with the Australian prime minister and his wife, so why do you need to be nervous meeting the first lady of Country N? Country N is no match for Australia in many aspects.”Freya nodded in a daze. What Heidi said seemed to make sense.“You just need to look poised.” Heidi said gently, “When I was going to meet those ladies for the first time, I was so nervous that I didn’t sleep the entire night. But on second thought, they might be nervous meeting me too since our identities are almost the same. No one’s identity is greater than the other, and there’s no need to make things difficult for anyone just because of our identities. Everyt
Freya gaped at the list. All of their identities were unusual.“By the way, Secretary Fleming, since I’ll be attending a charity event tomorrow, do you think I need to donate an item? How much should the item cost?”Hans giggled at how pure and adorable Freya was. “Miss Lynch, you don’t have to prepare it. The prime minister’s wife will get us to prepare it. All you need to do is accompany her to the event.”“Oh, okay then.”Since Freya was not sure about it, all she had to do was listen to Heidi.After Hans left, Freya took a bath and studied the documents in the room.Aunty Loretta focused on looking after Dani, knowing that Freya had something important to deal with.Ryan went upstairs and walked to the door of the bedroom. He saw Freya lying lazily on the chaise lounge at the French window and reading some documents. The room was warm, and she was snuggled on the lounge without any socks, exposing her fair feet. She was reading seriously.Ryan deliberately slowed down his
Freya shrunk her neck in embarrassment. She refused to admit that she had been thinking dirty thoughts just now. “How thoughtful. I haven’t even registered the situation.”“Oh, I thought you were thinking that I was going to…” Ryan’s smiling gaze traveled downward.Freya covered her chest instinctively. Only when she did that did she realize that she was not wearing anything underneath. However, Ryan’s head was above her. Since her clothes were not fully buttoned, he must have seen something.Her face blushed. She tried to get down unnaturally to look for outerwear to put on. “Sit there. I have some things…”“Don’t go looking for clothes. I’ve seen everything.” Ryan grabbed her arm and did not allow her to leave.Freya was so utterly embarrassed that she hit his chest in frustration. “Pervert. How did you know what I was going to do?”“Your face is so red, and your actions are so obvious. It’s impossible not to guess it.” Ryan grinned and hugged her. “Freya, sometimes you’re just
Ryan lifted Freya in a bridal carry and placed her on the bed.Freya was truly startled. “No. We really can’t.”“Why not?” Ryan removed his necktie as he spoke. His handsome face was blushing. “Babe, I miss you. I’ve been missing you so much for the entire day that I might die.”Freya’s knees went weak at his stare. She stammered, “What’s there to miss? I’m already yours. We can set a time and go to your apartment if you want to, but this is The Lodge. What if someone comes? Dani is still downstairs too…”“I went to see my parents before I came. They were already about to rest, and they wouldn’t send someone over. There’s Aunty Loretta taking care of Dani. She already knows about our affair. She won’t come up…”Ryan pressed his lips against Freya’s. He kept kissing her. “Let’s not waste any more time. The more time you waste, the later I’ll leave.”Freya scolded him a scheming man in her head. It turned out that he had made thorough preparations before coming over.She was in a
Ryan finally left Freya’s place at 10:30 p.m.The next day, an attendant of the official residence reported the matter to Nathan after he woke up.“Ryan must’ve been telling Freya about hosting the first lady today.” Heidi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror and tried on her clothes. She said, “I gave quite some information regarding today’s banquet to Freya last night. Ryan came to visit me last night, and I brought up that matter. He said he was going to check on Freya’s progress when he left.”“Their relationship is pretty close.” Nathan hesitated for a moment. “However, they aren’t biological siblings, after all. A single man and a single woman being together until late hours… I heard that they came back very late the day before yesterday because they had supper together…”“Yes. Ryan is quite close to Freya. After all, they’re of similar age. Maybe they have many things in common.” Heidi smiled and said, “If only the person Freya married back then was Ryan. They’re qu
Actually, Ryan had given Freya the translations of the dishes’ names. She simply had to memorize them.However, Ryan told her not to tell Heidi about his contribution before leaving.He hoped that she would do well in front of Heidi, and Freya understood him. “It was pretty hard to translate. Luckily, I got Ryan to help me last night. Hence, we only went to bed very late at night.”“No wonder Ryan stayed at your place until such a late hour last night.” Heidi understood in a flash.“...”Freya lowered her head. Could she say that it was because she was doing the deed with Ryan that he stayed at her place until late at night?“Anyway, it was only possible because you put in the effort. Before she left, the first lady of Country N even told me to bring you to Country N next time.”Freya was taken aback. Seeing that she had obtained the other party’s approval through her hard work, she was content. “Actually, I was slightly nervous today.”“It’s normal to be nervous. After all,
A netizen had screenshotted a picture of Freya on the TV channel and posted it on the internet. The netizen posted a question: [Can someone answer who the beauty beside the prime minister’s wife is? She’s so pretty and elegant.]Another netizen replied quickly: [She must be the niece of the prime minister’s wife, Natasha Lloyd.][She’s not. Natasha has attended a few events previously. I’ve met her before. She isn’t this pretty at all.][She must be a secretary.][No, no. This is the goddaughter of the prime minister’s wife, Freya Lynch. I saw her during Freycatheli’s party live stream.][Now that you mention it, I remember. They look pretty similar. Freya wore a straight-cut dress last time. This time, she wore a mermaid dress. Her aura completely changed, but her figure looks f*cking great.][Wow. If she’s Freya, isn’t she the ex-wife of that sc*mbag, Rodney Snow?][I thought the Snow family disliked her after divorcing Rodney.][Gold can shine even without men. Freya is quit
The assistant by Rodney’s side heard the discussion too. When he saw Rodney’s face filled with hostility, his heart started beating wildly out of fear.“President Snow…” the assistant spoke in a moderate voice to signal the people inside.They had to stop talking. Their words might become more unpleasant if they continued.Every employee inside stiffened as their faces paled.Rodney walked over eerily with a grim smile. “You want to resign because my eyes are problematic and my leadership skills are lacking? You can do so. Get lost immediately. You useless people have always been an eyesore to me anyway. You can’t do your jobs right, but you can gossip pretty well. Why should I keep you all? Get lost.”After speaking, he grabbed the collar of a male employee nearby and flung him out. “Get lost, all of you! All of you look down on me, but you’re not even up to my standards.”The male employee was utterly pale after getting scolded. He vented the anger in his chest, saying, “Yes, I
