Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt

"Ryan, I... I..."

Freya's face paled as she stammered.

"Are you unwilling to do that?" Ryan's eyes revealed sorrow. "Freya, aren't you willing to sacrifice just a little for me? As I said, it's just a little."

Upon hearing it, Freya was filled with remorse. Ryan was ready to be with her without a car for his future. He loved her so much, yet she was so cowardly and useless. "Sorry, Ryan. I'm willing to try. I hope you understand that it's not because I don't love you... I don't mind other people trampling on me. I'm just afraid that they'll criticize me like how Rodney did just now... "The same has happened to me in the past. Thomas was the one who beat and bullied me, yet other people only listened to his one -sided account and claimed that I seduced him. When in fact, I was the victim. When I went out on the streets, I was criticized badly and got pelted with eggs. Even my parents couldn't hold their heads high. Later, I couldn't bring myself to stay in the country..."

"I got it. I understand."noveldrama

Ryan hugged her tightly. "Trust me. I won't let those things happen again. If someone looks for you, you can contact me anytime. I'll rush to stop them. If we're 100 steps away from each other, I'll take 99 steps toward you. All you need to do is take a step forward."

Freya's eyes were burning once again.

However, she was touched this time.

"Freya, don't be scared. We didn't do anything wrong. You're divorced, and I'm single. Also, we're not related by blood. It's natural for a man and a woman to love each other."

Ryan's gentle voice sounded in her ears. "We didn't do anything shameful. We're no different from any other couples on the street. We have the freedom to love. When the time comes, we'll get married. Or if we don't find each other suitable, we'll break up. It's all normal, do you understand?"

"Yes." Freya nodded. She finally lifted her head off his shoulder. With a hoarse and gloomy voice, she said, "So, you actually thought of breaking up with me. I thought all you wanted to do was marry me. You liar."

"Of course, I wish to marry you, but I can't influence what's on your mind."

Ryan forced a smile. "If you're set on breaking up with me one day, it'll be useless for me to save our relationship. I can't be pestering you all the time as it'll inconvenience you. I hope that our relationship will be a happy one. If I bring you more agony than happiness one day, I'll have the self-awareness to initiate a breakup."

"Thank you, Ryan."

Freya wrapped her hands around his neck. Suddenly, she was not as anxious and upset as before. "You're right. It's normal for us to get in a relationship and understand each other better."

"It's good that you understand. Since such a n incident happened today, let's not go to

the shopping mall. I'll send you home first." Ryan kept quiet for a moment before he continued, "I'll visit your house later and let your parents know about our relationship."

Freya was shocked. "Isn't this... too abrupt? Aren't you afraid that my parents will stop us from getting together?"

"Your parents are bound to do that,” Ryan said, "Although your parents have a good impression of me, they won't want to offend my parents. So, my intention in dropping by isn't to make them support our relationship. I just want to tell them that I love their daughter. If my parents approve of our relationship, I hope they can do the same."

Freya grasped the point. At the same time, she could not help but admit that Ryan was considerate. With this, her parents might be more inclined to accept their relationship.

"Let's go."

Ryan started the car.

40 minutes later, the car entered the Lynch family's villa.

Freya's heart began to race madly. "Oh no. I'm very nervous."

"There's nothing to be nervous about. Let me do the talking later. Trust me."

Ryan's clear eyes were able to steady one's nerves.
