Although Freya had not seen Ryan for the past two months, their relationship had progressed a lot. They had even said cheesy words that they rarely said face t o face when they chatted on WhatsApp.
After being lovey-dovey on Whatsapp, even Ryan, who had been a serious person in the past, started making some naughty jokes. It felt flirty, and it always made Freya's heart beat faster.
She did not hate it. After all, they were dating. It was normal between adult men and women who were dating.
However, the awkwardness resurfaced now that the two were meeting face to face again.
That was because she understood that she and Ryan might never be able to go back to an innocent relationship with just kissing like before.
Freya did not hate that either. She was just a little flustered and confused.
After Catherine's sports car left, Ryan had two of Freya's huge luggage in both his hands. He gazed at the woman in front of him with his dark eyes without holding back.
He had not seen her for two months, but it seemed
like she had taken care of herself well in Country F.
Her initially fair skin had become fairer, and her cheeks were smooth and flawless. Her face was soft and packed with collagen. She had even dressed and dolled up nicely. She was wearing a black and white printed cotton dress beneath, with a cropped gray blazer outerwear. Her silky, long hair on one side was swept behind her shoulder, and the other side was tucked behind her ears. She exuded an elegant aura of a capable woman but also bright and charming.
"Why... Why are you looking at me like that?"
His stare made Freya want to touch her hair on the right awkwardly. However, she realized that her hair was already swept to the other side.
Her hand froze before she put them down stiffly.
"I'm looking at you because you've become prettier. Your skin has gotten fairer too.” Ryan chuckled, and his Adam's apple bobbed under the dim lighting of the parking lot.
"What's wrong? You don't want to go back to The Lodge?” Ryan raised his eyebrows mischievously. "Or would you like to go upstairs and taste me, this handsome young guy?"
"Stop joking around. I want to go back and see Dani.” Freya rolled her eyes at him with her blushing face and then got in the car in a hurry.
Ryan took his time to get in the driver’s seat as well. After getting in, he did not put on his seatbelt right away. Instead, he rested his left hand on the steering wheel and eyed the woman on the passenger's seat with a vague expression.
Having put on her seatbelt, Freya raised her head and met his gaze. Her heart skipped a beat. "What are you doing?"
"Babe, what you said at the airport really hurt me." Ryan's handsome face looked very aggrieved. "You talked about our relationship so simply as if you don't care about me at all. Even a breakup will only be unfortunate but not painful to you."
Freya was stunned. She did not think that he would take her random speech to heart up until that moment. 1
However, on second thought, she would also feel uncomfortable if it were her. 1
