EuropeNovelChapter 1128: Greta's mouth hung open.
Riley sat frozen in her seat.
Frederick was baffled by Freya's decision to push the plan back.

Freya ignored their confusion and rattled off instructions, her voice brisk with purpose. "Just keep an eye on Ellis for me, alright? I'll handle the fireworks company and get the drone crew at Anita International on board." She wanted this to be a show Ellis never saw coming. "If Ellis gets suspicious, just tell him I'm modifying the drones for you, Greta." "Understood," everyone chimed in, still a little dazed.
Without waiting for further questions, Freya ducked out, barely lingering on their anxious faces.
As the door shut, Riley looked at the others, still reeling. "She's really doing fireworks? Is she serious?" Greta leaned back, her mind already racing with possibilities. "Not just fireworks-she wants drones too. You think she'll have the drones spell out 'Ellis, I love you' while the sky lights up?" Riley frowned, worry flickering across her face. "Drones and fireworks together?" "That sounds like a recipe for disaster. They could crash midair." "Freya said she'd speak with the fireworks supplier and the drone team. Sounds like she's working on it," Frederick said thoughtfully, looking serious. "Trent toldthat Freya studied drone tech while she was in college overseas." "If she manages to pull this off, she could probably file for a few more patents." "I'm actually more curious to see what becomes of her proposal." "I'm waiting to see Ellis's reaction."

Ellis cback, but didn't see her for days. Every the called, she was knee-deep in drone work. And when they finally did meet, she was so drained she fell asleep the moment she sat down.
That led Ellis to take out his frustration on Greta and Riley.
They had told him, after all, that Freya was at the base helping them fine-tune the drones they so loved. As close friends, they had to have each other's backs. If they hadn't also been involved in helping him plan the proposal, Ellis might've been far less forgiving with his scolding. Before they knew it, another month had slipped by. Freya had finally completed her drone design, and the programming was done as well.
She brought the new model she and an engineer had crafted together to show Ellis.
When he saw how far she'd come, his first reaction was concern. "You shouldn't push yourself so hard. There's no need to stay up all night for their sake. They can wait."
"I know," Freya muttered, feeling slightly guilty. Greta and Riley had taken the fall for her. The content is Wall on novelenglish.net!
