After standing there for over ten minutes, Freya saw Ryan walking downstairs. His handsome face was ashen, and a
scar was on his forehead. He was probably hit by something.
“Are you… okay?”
Freya looked at him nervously. “Do you need…”
“No need.” Ryan lowered his head and walked outside.
“Stop right there.” Nathan’s somber voice sounded from behind. “ I don’t care how you do it, but you must clarify
this matter. Also, you have to get a girlfriend within half a month. I can’t afford to lose my dignity.”
“Lose your dignity?” Ryan looked back and gave a deep, sarcastic laugh. “As your son, I don’t even have the right to
fall in love with someone.”
“Shut your mouth, Ryan. Same-sex marriage may be legal, but don’t ruin your life. ” Nathan glared at him. “Break

Ryan pursed his thin lips before he turned around and walked away.
Then, the living room fell into an eerie silence.
Freya could feel her scalp turn numb. Nathan’s reaction had made her a little frightened.
“Freya, you should advise him since you’re quite close with him.” Nathan said helplessly, “Too many people are
eying the prime minister’s office. Considering that Ryan is young and has considerable standing, many people are
jealous of him. If he continues to behave like this, he’ll destroy his future. It doesn’t matter to me whether I’ll
continue in office, but he’s still young.”
As soon as Nathan finished speaking, he strode away.
Heidi also came down with a frown, like something was weighing on her mind.
“Godmom, do you want to have breakfast?” Freya held her.
“I don’t have much of an appetite.” Heidi sighed. “ No wonder he’s not interested in the women I’ve introduced to
him. I’m to blame for not noticing it. I don’t understand how he ended up like this.”
Freya could not get her head around it either.
Women were great. Why would he like a man instead?
Even so, she said, “Godmom, who took those photos? How dare they publish those photos. Are they trying to go
against the executive council?”
“Way too many people have been trying to go against us.” Heidi forced a smile. “Things weren’t so bad earlier.
However, this world is always full of ambitious people. Even if Ryan and that person were just friends, other people
might not believe it. That’s why he needs to get a girlfriend as soon as possible. It won’t be an issue even if he
wants to get engaged.”
“Freya, please advise Ryan, ” Heidi said. Freya was at a loss for words.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDid she not advise him? She did. However, Ryan refused to listen to her.
In less than an hour, the news about Ryan coming out was soon suppressed. At the same time, the executive
council publicly clarified that Ryan was only friends with that man. On the day the photo was captured, Ryan had
drunk too much and lost his footing. Hence, his friend beside him supported him.
Even so, many people did not buy it.
Nevertheless, the PR deleted all the comments of those who did not believe it. Within a day, the news about that
incident gradually died down.
After letting out a sigh of relief, Freya called Ryan, but he did not pick up her call nor reply to her message.
She reckoned Ryan must be in agony right now.
She had once fallen for someone too. Indeed, the feeling of not being able to be with the person she loved was
torturous.
However, how could she help Ryan? Ryan had helped her many times, so she wanted to help him, too. Ryan was still
not back when she returned to The Lodge after work. Once she sent Dani to bed, she called Ryan again. Finally,
someone picked up the call, but it was a strange voice.
