Chapter 706:
Freya gave a small nod. “Pretty much.”
“How did he treat you after the wedding?” Ellis hadn’t meant to ask—it slipped out—but he couldn’t stop himself.
At the very least, he wanted to learn from what she’d been through. If fate ever gave him the chance to be with
her, he wanted to know how to treat her right.
“Everything was fine—until the past six months.” Freya could say it now without flinching, though a faint trace of
regret still lingered in her voice.
Ellis kept his tone light. “Next tyou’re thinking of getting married, ctofirst. | don’t think I look too
bad myself.”
Freya blinked, caught completely off guard.
For the first time, she looked at him carefully.
He had that easygoing charm, an effortless coolness in the way he carried himself, with bold brows and striking

someone, and as his team member, she wanted to help. “We could invite all the single men and women at Anita

“Sounds good.” Ellis gave her a few lingering glances before finally agreeing.
Freya thought it was a pretty decent idea, too.
Both Melvin and Ellis were single. Maybe it'd be their chance to meet someone.

When the conversation ended, they returned to their meal.
Ellis had barely picked up his fork when his phone began buzzing relentlessly.
He glanced at the screen, and to avoid the caller throwing a tantrum, he swiped to answer. “Did you get yourself
beaten up?”
“Damn it!” Ethan's irritated voice exploded through the line. “Ellis, you're such a jerk!”
“Watch your mouth,” Ellis replied, sounding completely unfazed.
“A real man never lets a grudge go,” Ethan declared tically, clearly out for vengeance. “Just wait till you
get married. I'll install a virus on your phone that plays ‘I do miss you, my love’ every tyou're alone with
your wife.” Ellis was at a loss for words.

“Haven't learned your lesson yet?” Ellis answered casually, but his tone sent a chill straight down Ethan's spine.
Ethan stiffened, a cold dread creeping up like a blade to the throat.
