Catherine analyzed. "Now, the problem lies in what’s on Rodney’s mind. Will he let you go? Have you ever thought about it?
Everyone has been criticizing him and even boycotting him because he cheated o n you first. If he seizes the chance to blame you for cheating him, he’ll be able to prove his innocence."
"H-He can't possibly be that bad, right?” Freya was shocked. If Rodney does that, he could be considered savage and wicked.
“Who knows? Human nature is the most unpredictable. Before yesterday, could you have foreseen that Rodney would run up to you and call you a b*tch after he caught you together with Ryan? He has completely forgotten the fact that he betrayed you.”
Catherine could understand Freya’s perspective. Rodney was a despicable person. However, it all stemmed from his blinded love for Sarah. That was why he was pitiful yet despicable.
Nevertheless, he had lost everything. The arrogant Young Master Snow had fallen into a pit. He had lost his company, his parents disliked him, and he was left with n o friends. Even the ex-wife he wanted to get back together with was now in a relationship with his cousin. Did he regret not treasuring Freya at first?
Or was he resentful?
Catherine was not sure either.
Judging from Rodney's response yesterday, he did not seem to regret his actions.
He blamed others and made himself appear like a victim.
"After something happened to Shaun, I did some research on psychology."
Catherine said, "Some people tend to pass the buck subconsciously. Over time, it becomes a habit. Take Rodney, for example. He impregnated you but instinctively blamed you for seducing him and wanting to marry into a wealthy family. He didn't find himself at fault. When he spent the entire night with another woman, he blamed you for not trusting him. He didn't see the need to watch his behavior even though he was married. Also, he didn’t think he was wrong in divorcing you later. Instead, he blamed you for being wicked. He felt that you deserved to be divorced and abandoned."
Freya widened his eyes. "Indeed... that seems to be the case."
"That was why I hired Grady to put on an act so that Rodney could witness the scene. In that case, he wouldn't be able to find any excuses.”
