“Yes. If Freya knows that Ryan likes her, she’ll definitely freak out and move out of the official residence
immediately, ” Shaun said as he smiled. “ Have you heard of the boiling frog effect? At this moment, Freya is
already in the pot but she just hasn’t realized it.”
Catherine was dumbfounded. Was her friend already in such a dangerous spot?
Shaun analyzed the situation. “She was just betrayed by her husband and went through a divorce. She even had
another failed relationship before this. During this period, her best friends are either busy or dating. She has never
said anything, but this must be an exceptionally lonely time for her. She’ll definitely doubt her own charms.
“She might’ve thought of starting a new relationship before, but she has to take care of her child. In addition, she
doesn’t really believe in love anymore. A handsome, gentle, caring, and humorous man appears during this time.
He always makes her happy and chats with her. They’re not in a relationship. Instead, they’re just sharing bits of

Catherine went silent for a moment. She said dryly, “She’ll start to rely on him.”
“That’s right.” Shaun nodded. “Ryan is occupying the empty spaces of Freya’s life in his way, from eating with her
to taking care of her child. Freya might not realize it yet, but if Ryan stops chatting with her or starts ignoring her
one day, she’ll surely not be used to it. She’d even take the initiative to contact him.”
“F*ck.”
Catherine could not hold back from spewing vulgar words. “I didn’t know Ryan was so calculating.”
“He’s definitely calculating. However, that’s the only way. If he rashly tells Freya that he likes her, your friend will
surely freak out, ” Shaun said while smiling. “Let’s just go with the flow. At least Ryan is still a responsible man. I’ve
never even heard of him having any girlfriends before. This kind of person will be attentive when they fall in love.”
“Should I tell Freya about this?” Catherine was in a dilemma. “I don’t really want Freya to get married to someone
from the Snow family again. Moreover,
Ryan’s identity is… trickier than Rodney’s. The Snow family will never let him marry Freya. There’s no future for
them.”
Shaun patted her head. “Ryan is treating Freya so well, yet she doesn’t even notice it. This means that Ryan has
used some kind of method. Even if you tell her, she might not believe you.”
Catherine recalled Freya’s expression. Freya did not believe her at all. “How did this happen?”
“Just go with the flow. Don’t overthink it. Ryan is even more intelligent compared to Prime Minister Snow. He won’t
do anything that he’s not confident in. He would’ve thought of all the possible obstacles if he wanted to be with
Freya. Since he dares to make a move on Freya, it means that he has the confidence and determination to face
those obstacles. Besides, he’s quite capable. Look, during this period, Snow Corporation’s leader has changed and
Old Master Snow was stripped of his power. At first glance, Jessica seems to be the mastermind but how do you
know that it wasn’t Ryan who was driving everything behind the scenes?”

Catherine was shocked upon hearing that. “ Is that true?”
“It’s a guess.”
Shaun said profoundly, “Jessica never had the thought of competing for Snow Corporation. Why did she suddenly
make a move at this juncture?
This implies that Jessica and Ryan had already formed a partnership in secret. Do you know what this means?”
Catherine did not have much knowledge about politics. She got more confused as she continued listening. “What
does it mean?”
Shaun’s gaze was serious. “It means that Ryan is now in charge of the Snow family behind the scenes.”
“Huh?” Catherine could not believe it.
“To assume the position of prime minister and to sit tight in that position requires a lot of money.
Where does the money come from? The brothers, Nathan and Jason, got involved in politics and business
respectively. They complement each other, and both of them are indispensable.
However, Jason has been replaced by Jessica now. If Jessica disobeys Jason one day, how will Nathan be r e-elected
or even keep his current position?”
