Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 1068

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1068

“No need.” Freya shook her head. “I don’t need you to be responsible for me. Since the Snow family is forcing me to give birth to this child and even threatening me with this child, I’ll give birth to them but I won’t marry you.”

Rodney never thought that she would rather remain unmarried and give birth to the child than marry him.

He was supposed to be glad, yet he was upset somehow.

“Freya Lynch, do you dislike me so much?”

‘I’ve never liked you.’

Freya insulted him inwardly before she seriously said, “When I got into a relationship three years ago, I fell in love with a guy in college and we were together for four to five years. We had even met each others’ parents and were getting ready for our wedding. But one day, he stood my family and me up for his childhood sweetheart. He didn’t do it only once but many times. He always put his childhood best friend above everything else.

“Whenever we went out on a date, he would bring his childhood best friend along.

“When his childhood best friend got sick, he would take care of her.

“He claimed that he only treated her as a sister and was not in love with her. Later, I couldn’t endure it anymore so I broke up with him. Shortly after, he got into a relationship with that childhood best friend of his.

“By the way, he even blamed me for being narrow- minded after we broke up. He said that his childhood best friend was truly in love with him while I didn’t love him enough.”

Listening to her story, Rodney was stunned.

He suddenly pitied her.

All this while, he had been under the impression that he was pathetic when it came to relationships. He never thought that Freya would be the same as him.

“So you still can’t get over that shameless man, right?”

“No.”

Freya shook her head. “Although I initiated the break-up, I was actually the one who got dumped. I don’t want to experience that kind of feeling anymore. If we get together for the sake of the child and I don’t hold a place in your heart because you can’t get over Sarah, I’m afraid you’ll dump me eventually.”

For a long time, Rodney did not utter a word.

He just watched her lower her head as she ate the pasta. A complicated feeling of bitterness seized him.
