Melbourne.
Zenith Hotel.
Freya was halfway through her meal when Dani got hungry. The baby would not say anything even when she was hungry. She only knew how to cry.
Freya could only carry Dani to a private room to feed her.
After feeding Dani, she heard a few elitedies discussing just as she came out. They were standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows ahead of her.
"Did you guys see the picture on the inte?"
"Are you talking about the picture of Young Master Snow''s family? I saw it too. Theizens are saying that Freya has gotten fatter."
"She really did get fatter. Look at the ck dress she''s wearing today. Does she think we can''t see that she has be fat if she wore a loose dress? Moreover, ck doesn''t suit her at all. It looks old-fashioned."
"There''s no helping it. Even though the prime minister has acknowledged her as his goddaughter, it can''t change the fact that she''s from a small ce."
"Ah, who doesn''t know that the Snow family had no choice but to have the prime minister acknowledge her as his goddaughter because she got pregnant back then and Rodney didn''t want to marry her?"
Freya''s hands that were carrying Dani stiffened.
When she headed out that morning, she really minded her figure a lot. She did not expect that it would be discussed among others when she was outside.
During the celebration earlier, those elitedies were ttering her while surrounding her. However, they were gossiping about her like that behind her back. Those elitedies looked down on her.
Freya''s lips lifted into a sarcastic smile.
Right, what those people said was the truth. Even though she was being buttered up and ttered, it could not change the fact that she came from a small ce.
She felt sour.
At that time, she suddenly saw Rodney walking over from the other side of the corridor. His handsome face was filled with iciness. "Enough. Although my wife is from a small ce, she''s way better than you all, the wealthy elitedies from Canberra. At least she doesn''t have bad manners like you guys, gossiping about other people behind their backs."
Rodney had unexpectedly shown up.
The faces of those elitedies were flushed red from being told off. They could not ept it.
One of the elitedies retorted, "Why? She''s one of the main characters tonight. Can''t we even talk about her? Besides, I didn''t say anything bad about her. All that we said were facts."
"That''s right, Young Master Snow. Even if your identity is special, you can''t be unreasonable."
Rodney''s gaze swept across the elitedies'' faces. They were from wealthy families that Wendy had praised before. However, these elitedies were so pretentious. He even thought they could not evenpare to Freya.
That was right. Although Freya''s words were unpleasant to hear sometimes, she was not pretentious. She was straightforward with her words.
"Is this the manners that you all, the elitedies of Canberra, have?"
Rodney sneered. "You''re embarrassing the people of Canberra. I heard that you all previously studied abroad. However, you don''t even have the most basic manners. Let me remind you of this. You''re all women too. You''ll get married, have children, and be fatter due to pregnancy. As women, shouldn''t you all think about things from a woman''s perspective? Don''t you know that many women are urging others not to body shame a pregnant woman and be respectful of mothers?"
Those elitedies'' faces were burning hot from being told off.
Nevertheless, one of them was still unwilling to back down. She said, "Even if we get pregnant, we''ll take care of our figure."
"Ha."
There was a mocking expression on Rodney''s face. "If you''re preparing to get married in the future, I''ll ry this sentence to your future inws and husbands. I can guarantee that no men will want to ept you. Is pregnancy the time for you to take care of your figure? That''s stupid. Are you an idiot that you''ll jeopardize the child in your belly for your figure?"
