Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 698 âYeah,â Freya said, âYour mommy is amazing now, but your scumbag dad is very ruthless.â
The two children lowered their heads, both momentarily silent.

The next day.
Catherine got up early and made a hearty breakfast for her little darlings.
âSweeties, Mommy has taken the day off. Iâll bring you to the playground today, okay?â Catherine said gently.
âOkay.â Suzie became happy. âI wanna eat cotton candy.â
âAs you wish.â
Just then, Freya came out of the guest room wearing a plaid dress with a beige coat. She wore light makeup on her face, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. She had on a pair of high heels.â
âLittle darlings, do I look pretty?â Freya twirled.
Suzie clapped her hands. âYouâre pretty. Youâre so pretty I could die.â
âWhat a sweet girl. Iâll reward you with chocolate.â Freya tossed a piece of chocolate over.
Catherineâs expression darkened. âArenât you just attending a forum held by SE Group? If I didnât know any better, Iâd have thought that you were entering a beauty pageant.â
âWhat do you know? Todayâs event will attract the attention of beauty brands all around the world. Even Osher Corporationâs Rodney Snow is no exception. Iâve waited for this moment for far too long. He drove me away before, but hah! I canât wait to see his miserable and regretful eyes now,â Freya said with her head held high.
âFine, hurry up and eat. Leave when youâre done.â
Catherine said as she held back a laugh.

In Snow Manor.
After the maid served breakfast, the assistant handed him an itinerary and said, âPresident Snow, the internationally renowned cosmetic chemist, Garan, will be speaking on stage for SE Groupâs forum at 10:00 this morning. Would you like to go? SE Group has sent an invitation.â
Rodney frowned and snorted. âThat b*stard, President Hatch, is clearly showing off in front of me.â
âYes.â The assistant sighed. âHowever, Garan is really strange. Weâve invited her to come to Australia so many times but she has always refused. I thought that she didnât like Australia, but I didnât expect her to suddenly agree to come when SE Group, our rival, invited her. Osher Corporation is one level higher than SE in both status and brand level. Smart people would choose to cooperate with us instead.â
Rodney crossed his arms in deep thought. âHas Garan signed a cooperation contract with SE?â
âNo, but itâs said that Garan came to Australia this time to sign a contract with SE. I heard that she has an anti-wrinkle and firming formula in her hands. Itâd be troublesome if theyâre bought by SE. After all, the products developed by Garan these years have become popular products all over the world with up to 80% of consumers coming back to buy the products again.â
At the mention of that, Rodney felt annoyed. âThe chemists in our company are all useless. We invest so much money in them every year, but theyâve never made anything satisfactory.â
The assistant pursed his lips and said, âThe director of the R&D Department always talks about Freya Lynch, the woman from three years ago. She was quite talented, but itâs a pity that she didnât succeed in developing the productââ
âShut up.â Rodney looked over coldly. âExcept for her beauty, Freya Lynch is just a woman whoâs useless. Thereâs nothing worth mentioning about her. Cosmetic chemists like her can be found all over the country. I donât like her.â
ââ¦â
The assistant blinked and was surprised to find that President Snow would find another woman besides Sarah Neeson beautiful.
âThatâs right. Freya Lynch is definitely not on the same level as Garan.â The assistant nodded in agreement.
âNo matter what, we canât let Garan cooperate with SE Group.â Rodney suddenly got up. âGive me the invitation. Iâll go to the forum held by SE and meet Garan. If I go personally, sheâll definitely have to show me some respect.â
