Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 2181

Let me go, Mr. Hill Novel [By Shallow South] Chapter 2181

Ryan said, “Don’t worry. I won’t knock on your door and intrude. I’ll wait for you near your house and we’ll count down to the new year together tonight.”

“I don’t need you to have a countdown with me. The reason I returned from Canberra is to celebrate the new year with my parents.”

Freya was so annoyed that she wanted to lash out at someone.

The other side of the phone went silent. After that, Ryan said resignedly, “I’ll look for a hotel and stay there for a night, then. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

He backed down all of a sudden. Freya was not used to it. “Are you going to be alone tonight?”

“It’s okay. I didn’t think things through. Accompanying your parents is far more important.”

“Since you know that, why don’t you go celebrate New Year’s Eve with your parents?” Freya wished to persuade him to return. She would feel guilty if she left him alone when he came to look for her from a distant place. “Go back. I’ll pay for your plane tickets.”

“I’d admire you if you’re able to get tickets to Canberra at this hour.” Ryan laughed. He consoled her, saying, “Forget it. Actually, I don’t want to go back alone. At my age, my family will only talk about my marriage whenever they gather. It’s quite annoying.”

“No matter how annoying it is, they’re still your family.”

“Mm. Go and be with your family. I’ll search for a hotel on my phone,” Ryan said.

After the call ended, Freya heard her aunt calling her from below.

“Freya, come down quickly. We’re going to have our meal.”

When Freya went down, there were two tables in the dining area. A feast was spread out, and it was accompanied by wine. Even Dani, a baby who could not even crawl, beamed happily as she sensed the atmosphere.

However, on such a night, Ryan was going to eat and celebrate New Year’s Eve alone because he came to Melbourne to look for Freya.
