Nathan went silent for a few seconds before he nodded.


    "What a shame." Heidi let out a long sigh. "I t would''ve been wonderful if Freya was matched with Ryan back then."


    Nathan was stunned. Then, he frowned. "Stop talking nonsense."


    "I was just saying." Heidi smiled. She turned around and asked the servant, "Is


    Freya back yet?”


    "No, Miss Lynch said she''ll be working overtime in theb tonight."


    "This kid is really hard-working." Heidi wore an approving smile despite making


    such ament.


    "Weren''t you hard-working when you were young too?" Nathan mocked, "Whenever I asked you out on a date, you were either working overtime or on your way to work."


    "Women should always have careers.


    Considering that Freya treats everything so seriously, I believe she''ll be able to go a long way."


    Heidi was increasingly content with her goddaughter.


    The Snow family''s old residence.


    After Wendy hung up, she turned around, only to find Rodney standing behind her in a daze.


    "Mom, is what you just said... true?" Rodney asked in confusion with widened eyes.


    Wendy was startled. Only then did she recall what she had said to Heidi. She reckoned that her son had heard everything. "Yeah."


    As soon as she finished speaking, she wanted to leave, yet Rodney stopped her." Why didn''t you tell me about it before this?"


    "You don''t believe in such things, so what''s the point of telling you? What''s more, it''s over now. Even if Freya has a charmed life, you''re not the person who can ensure she''ll continue living a charmed life."


    With that, Wendy went upstairs. Although her son had always returned to the old residence recently, she was tired of him. She could not be bothered about his affairs anymore.


    In order to live longer, she should talk less to him.


    Rodney stood frozen to the spot, feeling absent-minded.


    No, he did not believe in things like fate. It was a lie.


    As for why such things would appear online...


    Rodney squinted his eyes and dialed Ryan''s number. "Did you deliberately spread the news about Freya having a charmed life on the inte?"


    "Rodney, what are you saying? I''m still working-"


    "Enough, Ryan. Stop f*cking acting," Rodney interrupted roughly. "Do you think the family will ept it just because you came up with the story that Freya has a charmed life and can bring good luck to her husband? Dream on!"
