Chapter 2449
“Of course.” Freya was smug.
Mr. Lynch and Mrs. Lynch exchanged glances. They could not stand seeing their daughter being so shameless.
However, their daughter's matter was already settled. It was their son's relationship that became a major concern for Mrs. Lynch.
After dinner, Ryan and Freya pushed Dani in a stroller to the neighborhood's lakeside for a walk.
The weather had started becoming hotter. The night breeze blew, anda slight fragrance wafted in the air.
Freya sighed. “I really can’t figure out what my brother is thinking. Did you say he still likes Jessica? It doesn’t seem like that. He might not like her, but he still hasn’t gotten a girlfriend.” After she spoke, she glanced at the man beside her. “What do you think?”
“I'm not too sure either.”
No matter how smart Ryan was, he could not figure everything out. “Maybe Forrest doesn't like Jessica anymore. Or maybe he still likes her, but he can’t get over the barrier in his heart. Besides... it’s not just about their identities and status. There’s still Rodney standing between them. Uncle Jason and Aunt Wendy will eventually grow old. With how Rodney is now... The duty will fall onto Jessica sooner or later. She’s a person with a sense of responsibility. Moreover, the parents of both families won't agree.”
Freya went silent.
Some people might be in love, but they might not be able to overcome obstacles and end up together like her and Ryan.
No, she and Ryan could only end up together because of Ryan's courage.
On the other hand, Forrest and Jessica were people with wounds in their hearts. Maybe they had lost the courage they had back then.
Thinking about it, Freya unconsciously tightened her grip on the hand of the man beside her. She had to cherish him well.
Ryan did not sit down immediately. Instead, he looked around. “Are you planning to sleep in the office tonight?”
“I've been busy with Rodney's matters these days. A lot of work has piled up...” Jessica’s grip on the pen in her hand tightened. A trace of fatigue flashed across her pretty eyes. “I brought him to the hospital for a check-up today. He’s like a child now.”
