Nathan nodded. "That's right. You can try dating if you meet a suitable person. Don’t be like a certain someone

After he spoke, he directed his gaze of disdain toward Ryan. "He's still wasting time now. If you dare bring a man back one day, I'll definitely break your leg."
"Dad, I've only been going to the manor aside from going to work. How would I even have the chance to bring a man back here?" Ryan muttered.
Bang!
Nathan put down his fork with force. "Now that Freya i s back, you don't have to take care of Dani anymore. T o prevent you from mingling with those people, I'll have someone transfer you to the prime minister’s office. You’ll take up the position of chief secretary. You'll be in charge of strategic planning for the future.”
Freya was taken aback.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Ryan smiled and said, "Dad, I'm doing pretty well at the grassroots level. Besides, you were the one who said that you'd make me work at the grassroots level for my whole life if I don't get married and have a child."
Nathan was humiliated. His expression turned awful o
n the spot. "Do you think I wanted to do that? I placed you at the grassroots level, yet you became an idler. The outsiders are saying all sorts of things. Even if you’re shameless, I, the prime minister, am not. I can a t least keep an eye on you if I assign you to be under m y supervision. Pack your things and get over there tomorrow."
"Okay, okay." Ryan frowned. He replied to Nathan with unwillingness.
"What attitude is that?" Nathan said annoyedly, "There are so many people who are aiming for the position of chief secretary, yet they don't have the chance. Don't b e ungrateful."
"I was wrong, Dad. I'll work hard by your side."
Ryan quickly answered obediently.
"You should strive to do better."
Nathan ate his dinner quickly and left to take care of political matters with a hardened expression.
Ahem.
Realizing that such an absurd thought had flashed through her mind, Freya’s face heated up from embarrassment.
She could not be blamed for it. It was all because Ryan looked fresher and cleaner after bathing! His eyes were like polished obsidians in the night, deep-set and bright. There was also a sense of sacred nobility about him.
"Ahhh..."
Dani's eyes lit up when she saw Ryan. She immediately waved her hands, demanding to be carried.
"Did you miss Uncle?” Ryan bent down and carried Dani from the stroller. "Come in quickly. It’s chilly outside."
He went inside with Dani first.
Freya pushed the stroller inside clumsily. After a moment of hesitation, she asked timidly, "Do you want to... close the door?"
