Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 2100

“Yes. If Freya knows that Ryan likes her, she’ll definitely freak out and move out of the official residence immediately, ” Shaun said as he smiled. “ Have you heard of the boiling frog effect? At this moment, Freya is already in the pot but she just hasn’t realized it.”

Catherine was dumbfounded. Was her friend already in such a dangerous spot?

Shaun analyzed the situation. “She was just betrayed by her husband and went through a divorce. She even had another failed relationship before this. During this period, her best friends are either busy or dating. She has never said anything, but this must be an exceptionally lonely time for her. She’ll definitely doubt her own charms.

“She might’ve thought of starting a new relationship before, but she has to take care of her child. In addition, she doesn’t really believe in love anymore. A handsome, gentle, caring, and humorous man appears during this time. He always makes her happy and chats with her. They’re not in a relationship. Instead, they’re just sharing bits of their lives with each other and frequently have meals together. Guess what will happen in the end?”

Catherine went silent for a moment. She said dryly, “She’ll start to rely on him.”

“That’s right.” Shaun nodded. “Ryan is occupying the empty spaces of Freya’s life in his way, from eating with her to taking care of her child. Freya might not realize it yet, but if Ryan stops chatting with her or starts ignoring her one day, she’ll surely not be used to it. She’d even take the initiative to contact him.”

“F*ck.”

Catherine could not hold back from spewing vulgar words. “I didn’t know Ryan was so calculating.”

“He’s definitely calculating. However, that’s the only way. If he rashly tells Freya that he likes her, your friend will surely freak out, ” Shaun said while smiling. “Let’s just go with the flow. At least  Ryan is still a responsible man. I’ve never even heard of him having any girlfriends before. This kind of person will be attentive when they fall in love.”

“Should I tell Freya about this?” Catherine was in a dilemma. “I don’t really want Freya to get married to someone from the Snow family again. Moreover,

Ryan’s identity is… trickier than Rodney’s. The Snow family will never let him marry Freya. There’s no future for them.”

Shaun patted her head. “Ryan is treating Freya so well, yet she doesn’t even notice it. This means that Ryan has used some kind of method. Even if you tell her, she might not believe you.”
