“Oh, you…” Wendy once again lamented losing such a good daughter-in-law. “But my back has been doing well lately. I just have a headache from being pissed off and annoyed by a lot of things.”
Freya thought that if she were to have a son like Rodney, she would not only have a headache. She would even have high blood pressure and brain hemorrhage.
Saturday was Ryan’s day off.
At 9:00 a.m., the driver drove the business car to a children’s photo studio in Canberra.
Freya did not ask which photo studio it was as she believed in Ryan’s competence.
She only found out that the photo studio was situated among the villas near the esplanade when they arrived. The interior design was exquisite, and there were many styles for children’s photoshoots. There were also all types of designs of children’s clothing, which were all brand new.
“This place must be expensive. How much is it? I’ll transfer the money to you…”
Freya spoke to Ryan while the employee had gone to pour them a cup of tea.
Ryan smiled and said, “No need. Didn’t you tell Aunt Wendy that Dani had taken her pictures? She asked me how much it had cost in private. I told her a figure, and she transferred me the money.”
Freya clasped her forehead speechlessly for a while. “You didn’t have to take her money. You could’ve just told me…”
“Don’t be silly. Does your money fall from the trees? Rodney didn’t give you a single penny when you guys got divorced. What’s wrong with them paying for Dani’s pictures?”
