“Is it because Rodney has betrayed you? Or is it because you have another man?”
“What will happen to the child if you and Rodney are divorced? Will you be chased out of the Snow family and no longer be the goddaughter of the prime minister?”
“That’s right. After all, everyone knows that the prime minister only took you in as his goddaughter because you were pregnant with Rodney’s child back then.”
A series of questions were asked. Mireya, who had just come out of the laboratory, was utterly confused.
She did not even know why those reporters would come over all of a sudden.
She should have brought someone with her if she had known.
Mireya was caught off guard.
She lost her balance because someone bumped into her. Moreover, she was wearing high heels, so she fell to the ground.
Reporters were like that. When they saw someone who used to be on the top about to get a divorce and was in distress, they would not show that person too much sympathy. On the contrary, they would think the miserable state of that person would give them a juicier piece of news. They had even thought of the headlines already.
They were not afraid of offending the prime minister’s office.
Since Rodney and Mireya were about to be divorced, Mireya would be nothing in Canberra after losing the support of the Snow family.
Mireya was exasperated. She had been knocked over, yet none of those reporters came to help her up.
They kept taking pictures of her.
She wanted to stand up, but a reporter even pushed his way to Mireya’s front and took close-up pictures of her.
“Go away.” Mireya was infuriated. She hit the camera out of the way. “You guys are simply bombarding me with questions and taking photos as you wish. Are all of you even qualified to be reporters?”
“Miss Lynch, once Rodney leaves you and you lose the backing of the Snow family, do you still think you can act as how you did before?” The reporter whose camera had been hit sneered. “You’d better be careful. My camera is costly. It’s tens of thousands of dollars. You’ll have to compensate me if you damage it.”
“Then I won’t just hit the camera. I’ll even smash it.”
A strong force yanked the male reporter away all of a sudden.
Ryan, who was wearing a black coat, snatched the camera from the man’s hands. Then, he threw it on the ground without hesitation. The camera was smashed in half.
After recognizing Ryan’s handsome and ruthless expression, no one dared to say a word.
Who in the news industry would not recognize that face? Ryan was the prime minister’s biological son. There were rumors that Prime Minister Snow was showing his son his full support in becoming the youngest prime minister of Australia. Ryan had even become a senator at such a young age.
No one dared to underestimate Ryan because of his young age.
After all, everything that he had done in the political world was unrelated to his age.
Even the older politicians who were 50 or 60 years of age did not dare to go against him.
Mireya was stunned too. She did not expect that Ryan would appear here. Was he not supposed to be in the office at this time?
Besides, she was used to Ryan’s calm and elegant demeanor. As he was not smiling right now, it was as if there was ice in his eyes. She could really feel the same aura that was on Prime Minister Snow coming from Ryan.
“Didn’t you want compensation? I’ll pay you back.” Ryan took a card out of his wallet and shoved it into the male reporter’s pocket. Then, he gave him a clean punch. “Oh, I forgot to tell you that your medical fees are included as well.”
That male reporter was trembling. He was so scared that he remained sprawled on the ground and did not dare to get up. He was afraid that he would continue getting punched by Ryan if he got up. “You… You can’t hit me. I didn’t do anything wrong. I was just conducting a normal interview.”
“A normal interview?” Ryan pulled another reporter’s camera over and pressed the lens against the face of the male reporter who was on the ground. “Do you think this is a normal interview?”
The male reporter’s face flushed red. He did not dare to say a word. The surrounding reporters did not dare to voice out their dissatisfaction either.
Did people not say that Mireya would not have the backing of the prime minister’s family after she and Rodney divorced? Why was the prime minister’s son helping her even now?
Those reporters regretted it badly.
They initially wanted to get a piece of breaking news, yet they offended someone instead.
Ryan smashed another camera on the spot. His sharp gaze swept across those reporters. “I meet local and foreign reporters every day. However, this is the first time I’ve seen reporters like you bunch who have no standards at all. Are most of the reporters in Australia like all of you? Or are you guys the problematic ones? Do I have to get the Department of Communications to check whether you’re all qualified to be reporters?”
“Senator Snow, we were wrong.”
A female reporter stepped forward and stammered, “We were just too impatient.”
Ryan went to Mireya’s side and helped her up from the ground. Then, he replied to the female reporter, “You’re not impatient. You guys just like to add insult to injury. You all think that since Mireya and Rodney are about to divorce, she’ll lose the protection of the Snow family. Therefore, you don’t have to be respectful to her anymore and can even mock her without fear.”
Those reporters’ faces were flushing because they felt mocked by Ryan’s sharp words.
Mireya’s heart stirred.
Although she had already experienced the fickleness of human feelings, Ryan’s words still made her feel like she was being protected.
Ryan stared at those people sharply. “I’m telling you. Even if Mireya divorces Rodney in the future, she’s still someone who’s under the protection of the prime minister’s office and is the prime minister’s goddaughter.”
It was a simple sentence, yet it shocked all the reporters.
There was too much information in that one sentence. Firstly, Mireya and Rodney might really get a divorce. Secondly, even if Mireya divorces Rodney, her identity and status as the prime minister’s goddaughter would not change.
However, the reporters had come over and troubled the prime minister’s goddaughter.
All of them were ashen-faced. They even felt like dying.
That male reporter who was lying on the ground was trembling hard. He quickly looked at Mireya with a pleading gaze. “Miss Lynch, I was in the wrong just now. I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”
He got on his knees and bowed with his forehead on the ground.
“What are you doing? Get up.” Mireya was flustered.
She hated people who simply kneeled and bowed the most. It seemed like he would keep doing that if she did not forgive him. If word got out, the outsiders would say that she was abusing her power to bully people.
More importantly, they were outside. Luckily, it was not the time to get off work yet, so there were very few people around.
However, that reporter did not listen to her at all. He kept bowing his head.
Ryan asked coldly, “You don’t even have to bow your head to the prime minister, yet you’re doing that when you see us. Are you trying to force the Snow family to establish a monarchy?”
The male reporter was utterly shocked when such a grave accusation was thrown at him.
Ryan sneered. He pulled Mireya to his car that was parked by the roadside.
Mireya was in a daze all the way there. When she recalled the reporters’ expressions, it seemed that they were terrified with just a single sentence from Ryan.
She could not help but secretly glance at Ryan’s handsome face. She remembered she had even warned him that he was dead meat on Whatsapp a few days ago.
Who exactly was Ryan?
Ryan was Mireya’s brother in name.
However, he was also a senator, a figure that made people fear him.
Screech.
There was the sound of tires skidding. A limited- edition sports car stopped in front of Mireya and Ryan.
Rodney hurried down the car. He heard some media had found out that he and Mireya had canceled the wedding. He was afraid those reporters would not dare to look for him and would look for Mireya instead.
However, he did not expect that he would see Ryan holding Mireya’s hand when he arrived. They were about to get in the car.
Mireya was following Ryan with an obedient look. She did not have the haughty expression that she usually showed Rodney.
With just a glance, that scene triggered Rodney intensely.
“Ryan, you bastard. I knew none of your words were true.” Rodney threw a punch after he rushed over.
Ryan’s eyes gleamed. Actually, he could have dodged the punch.
