Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1333 âI know. â Freya said, â Iâm just worried Rodney will be there too. Think about it. Sarah is the woman he loves the most, so I must dress up nicely. I canât become a plain, unattractive woman whom he looks down on just because Iâm pregnant.â
âYouâre overthinking. Rodney is still in the hospital.â
âThatâs not for sure. His obsession with Sarah is especially deep. Alright, letâs not talk anymore. Iâm hanging up.â
âHurry upâ¦â
The call ended before Catherine could finish her sentence.
After waiting for another 1o minutes, Freya finally appeared. However, her dress-up was indeed very thoughtful. Her thick, long hair rested on her back. Her petite face that looked mixed-race seemed like there was no powder on it, making her look clean, natural, and fresh. There was tomato-red lipstick applied on her lips. She exuded a youthful feeling without makeup and just a little lipstick.
As for her clothing, Freya wore a denim dress with a brown leather belt on her waist, exposing her pretty, fair, and slender legs. She had a white bag from Burberryâs new collection of that season.
When she walked out of the neighborhood, there were continuously guys who looked back to eye her.
A young man even bumped into a tree because he was too fixated on staring at Freya.
Catherine watched that scene in silence until Freya opened the car door and got in.
âYou donât look like youâre three months pregnant at all, â Catherine said.
âMy stomach isnât very big yet. If it gets bigger, it wonât be too easy for me to look pretty.â After Freya let out a worried sigh, she ran her fingers through her hair. âHow do I look? Iâm pretty, right?â
Catherine was speechless.
âAre you speechless because of my beauty?â Freya battered her eyes playfully.
âWait a minute, sister. Are you dressing up so nicely just to make Rodney regret it? But you donât even like Rodney. Donât make yourself look as if you want him to regret dumping you, okay?â
Catherine complained.
âYou donât understand. His attitude toward me was worse than dumping me,â Freya said furiously. â
Whenever I think of that idiot forcing me to get an abortion because of a few drops of Sarahâs tears, I get so mad. I donât mind losing to you, but Iâm just not satisfied losing to Sarah, that evil witch.â
âThen why did you act as if you didnât care at all when the Snow family asked for your opinion?â
Catherine could not resist asking.
âIâm not a fool. The Snow family is willing to stand on my side because they know Iâm the victim. The Snow family treats me well, but that doesnât mean Iâm as important as Rodney. At the end of the day, Iâm not a member of the Snow family. They want to let Rodney return, but for one, they have already released a public statement, so they canât bring down their pride. Secondly, they are worried that Iâll be uncomfortable. However, if I were to oppose letting Rodney return at that time, the Snow family would surely be skeptical of me. Thatâs why I canât make a decision.â
Catherine gave her an approving glance. âYouâre smarter now.â
âOf course⦠â After Freya said that, her expression suddenly darkened. âWhen wasnât I smart?â
âI used to think you were quite dim, â Catherine said honestly. âBut let me remind you. Donât put on makeup too often when youâre pregnant.â
âDonât worry. I developed these myself.â Freya took a small bag and handed it over to Catherine. â Itâs not launched on the markets yet. Youâre the only one who has this in the whole of Australia. Itâs called manipulative cosmetics. Itâll allow you to have unrivaled beauty, yet men will think you have no makeup on.â
âReally?â Catherine widened her eyes. Everyone wanted to look pretty, and Catherine was no exception either.
âLook at my makeup today. Does it seem natural?â Freya raised her eyebrows.
Catherine immediately opened the small bag and started studying Freyaâs cosmetics.
She forgot that she was supposed to go to court until Shaun gave her a call. âCathy, are you here yet?
The trial will start in 10 minutes.â
