Let me go, Mr. Hill Novel [By Shallow South] Chapter 2164 No kidding. If pictures of the prime ministerâs son touching a male celebrityâs hand were taken, the prime minister would personally target Catherine.
â¦
In the lounge, Freya slammed the door shut after yanking Ryan in.
âRyan, are you crazy?â
Freyaâs body trembled as she glared at the man in front of her. âThere are so many people and pairs of eyes at this banquet tonight, yet you have the guts to hit on Peter so openly. Youâre too shameless.
Donât forget that youâre dating Summer. Are you still thinking about that man you like? I donât understand why youâve become like this. If todayâs incident is exposed, the scandal that Godmother and Godfather have painstakingly suppressed will surface again. Donât you know that?â
âDonât worry. Catherine is a smart person. She wonât let a word of tonightâs incident get out.â
Ryanâs handsome face was calm. He was not flustered at all.
The more he behaved that way, the angrier Freya became, so much that she did not even filter her words. âSince you like men so much, you shouldnât date girls. What youâre doing is cheating and being a sc*m.â
âWho said I liked men?â Ryan raised his eyebrows.
âEveryone knows it. I even saw it with my eyes just now. Your expression was really⦠sleazy.â Freya paused for a moment before saying that last word with disappointment and annoyance.
It was not her first time witnessing that kind of thing. When she was overseas, she had seen a lot of men come out of the closet. She supported true love and did not discriminate. However, she could not accept Ryanâs attitude.
To her, he should not be that kind of person.
âI see.â
Ryan was not angry at all. Instead, his thin lips curved up into a smile. âI have no feelings for Peter. I did that earlier just to show you what type of person is the celebrity you like.â
âYouâre lying.â Freya did not believe him. On the contrary, she thought he was making excuses.
âIâm telling the truth.â
Ryan came closer to Freya all of a sudden. His usually gentle voice was deeper and raspier. The surrounding air seemed to thin as well.
âWerenât you sitting and chatting away happily with him tonight? Too bad he likes men. Didnât you see him blushing when I hinted at him just now?â
Furious. Freya raised her head, wanting to glare at him. However, she realized that their bodies were almost touching each other and took a step back instinctively. âYou were the one who forced him, okay? Peter is not g*y.â
âOh, even if heâs not, did he push me away when I gave him hints? He has no guts or manliness at all.â
As Freya stepped back, Ryan stepped closer, cornering her until she was against the cupboard.
She had nowhere to run and was speechless from his rebuttal.
Freya had to admit that what Ryan said was right. She used to think Peter was quite manly, but alas, it was all just an imagination caused by the screens.
Her image of Peter had crumbled. She might not be able to like that celebrity anymore.
However, she still kept making excuses for him. âDo you know how hard it was for Peter to achieve his current position? You have a high status. If he were to offend you, banning him would only take mere minutes for you. Youâre abusing your power to bully people.â
Ryan laughed coldly. âHow can he, a man, throw away his backbone just because of identity, power, and status? So you like those timid guys who have no backbone at all.â
âSo what if I like them? What does it have to do with you?â
Freya blurted out in exasperation.
âOf course, itâs my business. Because I like you.â
After saying that with a hoarse voice, Ryan placed his hands on both sides of the cupboard, caging Freya in the middle. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her hard.
Boom.
Freya felt as if thousands of fireworks were going off in her head.
It was just like the night they went to the theme park and sat on the Ferris wheel.
When the Ferris wheel gondola reached the highest point, the whole night sky was brightly lit.
Freyaâs head began to spin.
