Chapter 2231
When Ryan and Freya put on an act and made some casual remarks, Heidi and Nathan fell for it just like that.noveldrama
They were no ordinary people but the prime minister and his wife. Who in Australia had the audacity to play mind games with them and even successfully deceive them?
After breakfast, Freya and Ryan left together.
Nathan took a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth. He said to his wife glumly, "How can Ryan take care of Dani? He's a man, and moreover, he's unmarried and childless. How would he know how to take care of a kid? I think I'd better ask Sister-in-law t o pick Dani up and let her stay in the old residence for two months. After all, Dani is her biological granddaughter. Sister-in-law has always been nagging about it too."
Heidi smiled, but she slightly disagreed with the idea." If she looks after Dani, she might not send her back later."
Upon hearing that, Nathan furrowed his brows. " Darling, you mean..." "As you said, Sister-in-law misses Dani very much.
What if she gets so used to taking care of Dani in the next two months that she refuses to return her to Freya after she comes back?"
Heidi slowly sipped on the warm water. "Freya is our goddaughter. Since she's staying in The Lodge and is willing to leave Dani here, it means that she trusts us. A child is like a mother's flesh. Men like you won't understand. If Dani's custody is taken away one day, that's similar to taking a woman's life away."
"You're exaggerating it. My brother and sister-in-law aren't that kind of people." Those words upset Nathan, but Heidi was his wife, after all. Casting their relationship aside, Wendy and Jason had come this far mainly because of gains. "The two of them did not meddle with Dani's custody because they were guilty toward Freya. Humanity is most fragile over the course of time. Let's put Brother and Sister-in-law aside and talk about Rodney."
Heidi's somber expression turned a little cold. "If he knows that his daughter has returned to the Snow family's house, he'll definitely visit the place very often. What will Sarah think about it then? She can't get pregnant. Before this, she had already planned to do something bad to Dani. If she starts inciting Rodney, he might snatch Dani back. Freya will be away for a couple of months, so she won't be able to look after Dani. If Rodney decides to file a lawsuit, the judge might grant Rodney custody of the child."
Stung by her words, Nathan was speechless.
Heidi gently patted the back of his hand. "To be honest, if Rodney's new wife were gentle, generous, and kind, I wouldn't be so worried about it on Freya's behalf. I believe Freya would approve of Dani seeing her dad and grandparents often too. But we both know that Sarah is someone not to be taken lightly. Even if Dani stays in the Snow family's old residence, she'll most probably be unable to come back."
Nathan let out a long sigh. "Perhaps you're right. After all, Rodney is my brother's biological son. Although they're disappointed in him, they can't bring themselves to ignore him. I think the same applies to us when we're dealing with Ryan."
"Don't compare Ryan to Rodney," Heidi said frostily, "A t most, there's just something wrong with Ryan's sexual orientation. He's flawless when it comes to the way he conducts himself. As for Rodney, there are issues with his perception and moral values. He won't be able to educate a child well. If I were in their situation, I wouldn't let Rodney interact with Dani.
Freya has a wonderful personality."
Aware of his wife's temper, Nathan gave a dry cough. "It seems you're very fond of Dani. Unfortunately, she's not Ryan's biological child. I wonder when that kid is going to give birth to our grandson."
"That's why I asked him to look after Dani more often. With Dani's cuteness, he might want to be a father after spending more time with her."
Heidi sighed and said, "I'm not expecting him to be straight. I'll be content as long as he gives birth to a grandson for me."
"You... You have such low expectations," Nathan said huffily, "How can a prime minister's son..."
"Forget it." Heidi rolled her eyes at him. "You're not an emperor in ancient times who can hold the position till you pass away either. It's unknown whether you can continue being in office three years later. Even if you can, the longest you can be in office will be seven or eight years. A lot of people are eyeing your position. Once you step down, hardly anyone will care about your son."
