Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1818 âMom, who on earth is your child? Did Rodney bribe you or something?â Mrs. Lynchâs words caused Freyaâs face to turn ghastly.
âIâm just telling the truth. Donât you think my words make sense?â Mrs. Lynch asked.
â⦠They do.â Freya had no choice but to agree reluctantly.
Mrs. Lynch sighed. âItâs common for young people like you to come across scummy people. You might not know some people well even after knowing them for a long time, so thereâs no need to cling to them. You should stop thinking that youâre so smart and you can look down on him.â
âMom, Iâm not looking down on him. Given that heâs the eldest young master of the Snow family, why would I look down on him? Rather, Iâm jealous of him being born under a lucky star.â
âIf you donât look down on him, why are you always so sarcastic when speaking to him?â Mrs. Lynchâs eyes were sharp. âWhen both of you quarreled on the day of your delivery, it was indeed his fault for not putting up with you during your pregnancy. But come to think of it, it takes two to tango. I reckon it was your harsh words that sparked the conflict.â
âMom, what do you mean?â Freya felt aggrieved. â He made me so angry and caused me to give birth to a premature baby, yet youâre speaking up for him.â
âIâm just commenting on the way you both get along with each other.â
Mrs. Lynch stroked Freyaâs long hair. âHaving been married for over ten years, I understand your situation, Freya. Itâs excusable that you felt oppressed and lost your temper during your pregnancy and after your delivery, but you canât always be prejudiced against Rodney. Perhaps he was full of shortcomings before this, but itâs a fact that heâs the childâs dad. The child will need his protection in the future. As the child grows, more sacrifices are needed. You canât be doing everything single -handedly as itâll be too hard for you. Even if you were to divorce in the future, he would have to take responsibility for the child. Whether itâs in the short run or long run, thereâs no need for both of you to cut each otherâs throats. As a woman, you should have a high EQ.â
Mrs. Lynch looked at Freya helplessly. âDo you have a high EQ? If you did, you, as the daughter of the Lynch family, wouldnât have been bullied so terribly by Linda back then. Youâ re my daughter, but why isnât your EQ half as high as mine? Look at all the wealthy families in Melbourne. Is any one of them as warm and peaceful as the Lynches?â
Freya rolled her eyes. âMom, you were just lucky enough to meet a good man like Dad.â
âThereâs hardly any man in the world whoâs considerate, gentle, family-centered, responsible, handsome, and good at making money. When your dad was younger, he rarely returned home and was very willful too. Similar to other married couples living together, we gradually changed to complement each other. If I had kept making sarcastic comments like you, I mightâve gotten divorced countless times.â
Freya rarely heard her parents mention things that happened to them when they were younger. She had always been keen on having a marriage like her parentsâ.
âFreya, perhaps the way you get along with Rodney has been wrong right from the beginning. From the moment you met him, you guys have had a bias against each other. Whether you guys will just be friends or remain a married couple in the future, you should have a peaceful talk with each other. Letâs put marriage aside. Smart people will hide their aggression regardless of whether theyâre at work or social functions. Itâs not necessary to show it to others all the time.â
Mrs. Lynch pointed to Freyaâs heart. Freya shuddered slightly.
Mrs. Lynch was a smart woman. Freya was under no illusions that her mother was so good at carrying herself during social functions in Melbourne that no one could find fault with her. It was because of her motherâs guidance that she became so brilliant.
Now that her mother had stepped into a large circle in Canberra, she could still mingle with people like Wendy and the prime ministerâs wife superbly.
