Let me go, Mr. Hill [By Shallow South] Chapter 2118
Freya was taken aback. Then, she realized something. “How did you know that my dinner has ended?”
She looked around instinctively.
Ryan explained, “I’m parked near the restaurant where you were having dinner, and I saw you coming out. Get
down. I’ll come over to pick you up…”
“I’ve already got out of the car. I’m ahead, where the cars are turning.”
“Wait for me.”
Freya waited there for less than five minutes when Ryan drove his Audi in front of her. The passenger seat’s window
was open, revealing a handsome face. “Get in.”
After Freya got on, she glanced at the half- finished McDonald’s on the dashboard and the laptop at the backseat.

“Mm. I worked extra hours until 7:00 p.m., so I just drove here.”
Ryan smiled nonchalantly. “What’s wrong with burgers? I ate them a lot when I was studying abroad. They’re
convenient and quick. Besides, today’s a festive holiday. There are couples everywhere on the streets. Am I not
making myself suffer if I have dinner by myself?”
After he spoke, he glanced at Freya helplessly. “I don’t like other people giving me pitiful gazes.”
Freya understood what he meant.
She hated things like Valentine’s Day, New Year’s Eve, and Christmas when she was single. Those celebrations
would only make her feel alone.
However, she felt inexplicably guilty to hear those words from Ryan.
It was as if she had abandoned Ryan first, and she felt bad about it.
“Actually… I didn’t have my fill just now. Should we go and get some more food?” Freya looked outside the window.
“That restaurant. How does mac and cheese sound?”
“…Okay.”
Ryan’s lips curved into a grin, and he found a place to park his car.
The mac and cheese store was small. However, it was crowded since it was a holiday. There was even a queue.
Freya went to grab a seat. Not long after, Jack sent her a message: [Remember to send me a message when you
get home. Don’t worry. I didn’t take your ex-husband’s words to heart. I’ll see with my own eyes whether you’re a
good woman or not.]
[Thank you.]
After Freya replied, Ryan came over with two bowls of mac and cheese. He glanced at her phone and then gave her
a spoon. “Well, how did the blind date go? Didn’t you say dinner might only end at 8:00 p.m.? Was it unpleasant?”

complained in annoyance. “Did he have to do that? We’re divorced. I’ve even given him a child. I just want to start
a new life, yet he looked like he wouldn’t stop until he destroys my reputation.”
“He despises you because of Sarah’s incident.”
Ryan mixed the mac and cheese and said gently, “Don’t overthink. If Jack cares about something like that, it means
that he’s not worth you getting to know him better.”
“Jack doesn’t mind it. He just sent me a message to explain,” Freya said while lowering her head. “Actually, he’s not
bad…”
He just did not make her heart flutter. Although they had common topics to talk about and the atmosphere was not
awkward, he did not step up to defend her when she was quarreling with Rodney.
However, it was understandable. They had only met for the first time.
Nevertheless, if Ryan were there in that situation, he would never allow the bystanders to look at her differently.
