Ryan went to the Davis mansion to see Freya Davis when Lora was at work.

"You didn't waste time, huh? Thirty days on the dot," Freya remarked as she held a mug in her hand, stirring her tea.

"I've come for feedback," Ryan replied confidently. He smiled and said, "Honestly, I wouldn't blame you if you still don't want me in your daughter's life. As a parent now myself, I can't even imagine someone hurting my children."

Ryan's heart jumped to his throat, his stomach twisting this way and that. He was anxiously waiting for Freya's response like his life depended on it.

"Oh, come on, honey. Give the man a break," Jack Davis' voice echoed in the room before he came into view holding his own cup of tea.

He sighed and said, "He had already eaten the world's hottest chili and never gave up! Give him a chance. I think he will make Lora happy."

looked at Ryan before saying, "You passed the trial! Like I said, all I care about is my daughter's happiness and I can see that she's happy when she's with you. Take care of her, she's my one and only daughter." Ryan's eyes lit
