Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1882 âThatâs different. I have to support you.â Ryan beamed with affection in his eyes.
Rodney became really unhappy when he saw this and subconsciously held Freyaâs waist, asserting his dominance. â No need. With me as her husband, I can hold up the sky for her.â
Ryan glanced at the hand on her waist and smiled at her. âWhat I mean is⦠Iâll always be your supporter. If Rodney bullies you in the future, I wonât let him.
Freya was very touched.
Rodney said angrily, âRyan Snow, stop talking nonsense. Why would I bully her? Sheâs my wife. Iâll love her, of course.â
âWho knows?â Ryan raised his eyebrows. âWatch your words. If you donât know how to speak, then move aside. â Rodney looked at him in disgust.
â I think youâ re the one who needs to watch your words.â Freya rolled her eyes at Rodney. âRyan came here to congratulate me, yet you? Why are you always targeting him? Go stand in the corner.â
âYou want me to stand in the corner?â Rodney was shocked, disappointed, and upset all at the same time. âIâm your husband.â
âAnd heâs my younger brother.â âYou just acknowledge himâ¦â
âI already consider him family, â Freya said very firmly.
Rodney was very displeased, especially when he saw Ryanâs gloating expression. He gnashed his teeth and said, âDid you hear that? Youâre just family.
Iâm her lover.â
âRodney, whatâs that supposed to mean? I donât want to be her lover, â Ryan said innocently. âCan you not think of us in such a lewd way?â
âYouâre nuts.â Freya also felt that Rodneyâs thoughts were lewd, so she glared at Rodney and pulled Ryan away.
Rodney was furious at being left behind. Ryan was a cunning fox who was clearly eyeing Freya covetously. Yet, he was still pretending to be a pure and innocent younger brother. How shameless.
No, he could not let them be alone for too long.
Fortunately, Ryanâs identity was not ordinary. Soon, someone came over to toast him on the pretense of congratulating Freya.
âPresident Lynch, congratulations. Oh, this must be Senator Snow. You truly are young and talented. I didnât expect to have the privilege to meet you today. I propose a toast to both of youâ¦â
âMy wife canât drink. Iâll drink for her.â Rodney hurriedly leaned in and took Freyaâs glass.
Remembering that she had to nurse Dani later, Freya just let him take it.
âYoung Master Snow really dotes on his wife, â the man said with a smile.
âNaturally. Since she wants to start her business, Iâll support her. With Freyaâs talent, working as a cosmetic chemist for another company will only bury her talent.â Rodney heaped praises on her.
Freya shot him a complicated look while Ryan took a sip of red wine with a smile on his face.
The subsequent toasts from guests who came over were all taken by Rodney.
Even if he had high alcohol tolerance, he was still drunk after all that drinking.
After the celebration banquet, Ryan and Carson helped to take Rodney to the car.
âFreya, do you really not need my help with sending him home?â Carson was worried.
â Itâs fine.â Freya smiled. âYou both should head back early and get some rest. If I really canât hold him, Iâll ask the doorman for help.â
âBe careful on the way back, â Ryan said before watching the car leave.
Carson lamented, âI didnât expect Iâd see the day my brother finally learns to cherish the people around him. This is great. The family would keep worrying about him otherwise.â
âMmhm.â
Ryanâs eyes were fixed at the direction of the car far away.
Although he had a favorable impression of Freya, he understood that it would be difficult for them to be together with their identities. It was better this way. At least she was happy.
However, he was not joking. If Rodney bullied her, Ryan would not let him off.
