It had been a while since Heidi received such a p in the face. She flew into a fit


    of rage. "Yes, it''s your family affair, but Freya: s my goddaughter. Please leave our house right now."


    As soon as she finished speaking, a few bodyguards behind her dragged Rodney out of The Lodge.


    Heidi warned, "Remember him. I don''t want him in The Lodge anymore."


    Rodney was furious. "Aunty Heidi, don''t be a snob."


    "I''m a snob?" Heidi was driven to exasperation.


    Luckily, Rodney was soon taken away.


    Freya and Ryan were a little dazed. Little did they expect things to go that way.


    Nathan, who was caught in the middle, felt most awkward. "Why are you so mad at a youngster?"


    "Didn''t you hear how sarcastic he was?" Heidi said furiously, "I''ve had enough of him. What he did has caused so much trouble for us, yet we had to sort out his mess. Moreover, his behavior and personality are problematic. It''s fine that he spends time with Dani sometimes but certainly not in the long term. Although he might have another child in the future, I don''t care. I''ve been watching Dani grow, and I can''t let Rodney influence her."


    Beside her, Freya was touched by her words. Indeed, Heidi had thought for Dani.


    Nathan sighed.


    Heidi added, "Also, he thought that I was unaware of his motive. Only now that he has seen through Sarah''s true colors has he realized how good Freya is and wants to get back with her. However, he doesn''t reflect on himself. Does he deserve to be with Freya? Anyone out there is better than him. If it weren''t for the fact that he''s my nephew, I wouldn''t have allowed him to into The Lodge."


    "Alright, alright. Cool down." Nathan coaxed her, "Don''t sink to his level."


    "Exactly, Godmom. Don''t be mad." Freya coaxed her too, "He''s unworthy of your anger. He doesn''t deserve it."


    "You''re really good at coaxing people." Only then did a smile appear on Heidi''s face. " Freya, feel free to let me know if Rodney continues pestering you. I''ll have someone teach him a lesson."


    After pausing for a moment, Heidi urged Nathan. "Advise your brother and sister- inw to send Rodney abroad as soon as possible."


    "I''ll give my brother a callter," Nathan promptly responded. In fact, he was unclear about their n to send Rodney abroad.


    After breakfast, Freya walked out of the dining room. Ryan followed suit and said,'' Later, I''ll get the chauffeur to send Aunty Loretta and Dani to the old residence for a day."


    Freya was stunned.


    He exined, "You promised Rodney earlier. If you suddenly go back on your word, he''ll definitely call you or go to your office to pester you."


    Freya was extremely distressed. "For the first time, I find it so annoying to have a child with Rodney. But having said that, Dani is so cute. Saying that will be unfair to her..."


    "Children shouldn''t be dragged into adults'' matters." Ryan''s handsome face was very solemn. "I''ll discuss it with Uncle Jasonter. We''ll send Dani there two days a week so Rodney doesn''t have toe over, and both of you can also avoid meeting each other."


    Freya was relieved. "Ryan, this is the best arrangement. Thanks."


    As soon as she said that, she shed him a sweet smile.


    If they were not in The Lodge, she would surely hug him.


    "I''m doing this for my own sake." Ryan threw a pensive look at her. "I don''t want


    the person I love to see her ex-husband every day."


    Freya chuckled. "Didn''t you say I''ve given you a sense of security?"


    "I do feel assured, but I hate that. Above all, I''m worried that you''ll be unhappy," Ryan said gently.


    Freya pursed her lips and looked down without uttering a word. Her ears, which were faintly visible beneath her ck hair, reddened.


    With that, Ryan''s eyes darkened. A momentter, he clenched his fists and let out


    a low cough. "Didn''t you say you want to borrow my earphones? They''re in my room. Let me pass them to you."


    Huh?


    Freya did not react until she caught sight of his eyes on her.


    Something struck her mind, and only then did she agree dully.


    Her initial n to head to the parking lot disappeared as she turned around and entered the house with Ryan.


    A servant, who was mopping on the first floor, greeted the two of them the minute she saw them.


    "My earphones are upstairs. Come with m e." Ryan then took her into his bedroom.


    As soon as Freya stepped into his room, she was pressed against the wall. Subsequently, a burning kissnded on her.
