After Aunty Celine left, Mrs. Lynch lamented. "I was quite worried. But seeing that The Lodge had arranged a babysitter to escort you back, they must really adore you. I'm relieved."
Freya changed the topic. "Mom, isn't Dad back yet?"
"They will be moving the headquarters to Canberra soon, so there are many things they have to check on here in Melbourne. Your dad is very busy," Mrs. Lynch said and sighed with concern. "But quite a few companies have been approaching us for collaborations after the public heard that Lynch Corporation managed to get the piece of land in Canberra. We’ve received many new projects recently and are much busier." 1
"Mom, you have to remind Dad that earning money is just secondary. At his age, his health is the most important," Freya said.
Mrs. Lynch glanced at her. "Your dad is trying to stand up for you. Once Lynch Corporation grows bigger, he wants Rodney to take a good look at how the Lynch family's daughter, whom he never cherished, has a higher net worth than him."
Freya burst out in laughter. She was very touched." Actually, I'm already indifferent to it.”
"You are, but your dad isn't." Mrs. Lynch carried Dani i n her arms. She got more delighted the more she looked at Dani's adorable face. "It's good that Dani looks like you and not her father. Oh, I wonder when will your brother get married? I introduced him to a girl last time, but it went down the drain again.”
Freya's heart skipped a beat. "Didn't you say there was a possibility it might work?"
"Yes, but your brother suddenly made things clear to that lady a few days ago." Mrs. Lynch thought it was a pity. "She's such a nice lady. I don't exactly know what your brother's type is.”
Freya immediately thought of Jessica.
It was such a coincidence. To think Forrest dropped the idea after having that meal last time. Could something have happened between him and Jessica?
Upon thinking that she did not manage to get any clues from Forrest the last time, she became even more eager to know what happened.
Ryan was the one who booked the room. Perhaps he knew something.
However, she did not want to ask him about it.
