"No need. Mom has asked us to attend a mini fashion event. We'll meet Courtney there and ask her to design our wedding outfits for us," Freya said indifferently.
"Okay, okay. I promise to pick you up on time. By the way, was Dani fine last night?”
"She wasn’t well, so she threw tantrums the whole night." As soon as Freya finished speaking, she hung u p in annoyance.
Rodney scratched his head in distress.
At night, he went to the fashion event with Freya.
However, Freya pulled a long face throughout the event.
Rodney was apologizing to her non-stop, "I’m sorry, Freya. I swear I won’t set my phone to silent mode anymore. I had no choice but to do that last night. Mr. Micheal knows core technologies very well, and I was too engrossed in the conversation. I'll take care of Dani tonight so you can rest early, alright? Or... When I go home tonight, I'll kneel down until you forgive me."
"Enough.”
Ruffled by his nagging, Freya halted her steps. "Do you
know why I'm so mad? It's because you didn't pick up my call. Last night, I didn’t stop you from leaving the house nor interrupt your work, but can you please respect me? Putting myself aside, is the kid not as important as your work?"
"Don't say that. You and the kid are very important. Both of you are my top priority." Rodney held her hand. "Dani usually behaves well. I had no idea why she suddenly cried last night. If I had known it, I would've come back straight away without caring about my work."
Freya opened her mouth and fixed her eyes on his handsome, exquisite face.
She used to have complete trust in him. However, ever since he lied to her about his return from Cairns, she had not been able to tell whether he was truthful or not.
Nevertheless, she always thought, 'What if it's true?’
What if she misunderstood him?
