My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

"That's true. There won't be winners in life if no risks are taken." I pursed my lips then smiled at Freya, indicating that she didn't have to worry about me. "Don't worry. I understand. I merely need some time to readjust myself. By the way, how's Anne?"

Anne was capable and steady. With Hendrix looking after her, I wasn't too worried about her.

Freya's expression looked a little strange when I brought up Anne. "What could have happened to her? She's fine. She's excelling in everything that she's doing. As her godmother, I feel ashamed that I can't compare to her."

Her tone was cold. As she spoke, she retracted her hand, crossed her hands in front of her, and looked elsewhere.

"Are you angry with Anne?" I didn't beat around the bush since we were long-time friends.

Freya lowered her eyes and did not deny it. However, she still took into account some affections she had for Anne and covered up for her. "Not really. We just argued because our views on some things were different. Our age gap is so big, so it's inevitable if there are some misunderstandings between us. She wants things to be fast, but I want it to be steady. How can we be in the same boat?"

These words were valid, and she did not mean to demean Anne. However, Freya was still as softhearted as ever.

No matter what, she was the one who had watched Anne grow up. I believed that she would not harm Anne.
