"Are you comforting me?” Freya smiled wryly.
"Humans always need a little hope for the future." Catherine smiled. "If you really think about it, you two have already slept together. He's good-looking and has a good figure..."
"He's not bad. He can be quite flirty too. He wears pink underwear." Freya could not help but spit out.
"Ahem. You even saw him in his..." Catherine's tone became ambiguous.
"I saw it accidentally, okay? It’s not what you think,” Freya hurriedly explained.
"I know. After all, you two have slept together before," Catherine said with an understanding tone.
Freya blushed. There was no way to clear her name. "I did sleep with him, but I didn’t take a proper look at him before..."
"Does that mean you’ve been looking at him seriously recently?"
"Catherine...” Freya gnashed her teeth. She did not want to talk to Catherine anymore.
"Okay, I’m just kidding." Catherine laughed. "Freya, no matter what you do, I'll respect your decision. Just
remember that you have to protect your own heart. If you do that, no one will be able to hurt you.”
"It’s not that easy to protect the heart,” Freya muttered, "You didn't protect your heart when you married Shaun before either."
"Yeah, but even if you can't do it, you have to remember that women should love themselves a little more," Catherine said.
"Yeah, I know."
Freya nodded. For the kind of dedication and love she once gave to Patrick, once was enough.
