Chapter 1171:
At that exact moment, a fleet of glowing blue drones lit up the night sky, moving with perfect precision according
to the program Freya had written.
Ellis felt his chest tighten.
Moments later, the drones assembled into a familiar figure above them: the emblem of their shared organization,
recognized by all who had served. After lingering for a good ten seconds, the drones shifted again—this time
forming two stick figures, one male and one female, standing at attention, saluting the emblem together.
Not a single word was needed—yet Ellis’s heart stirred deeply. He understood her message loud and clear—
whether or not he ever returned to the organization, she would be there, guarding that hwith him, side by
side.
“Holy cow!”
“What the heck is going on?”

“Wait, hold up—I thought he was supposed to do the proposing!”
As murmurs and whispers rippled through the crowd, the drones suddenly erupted into a grand display of
fireworks. Brilliant bursts of color lit up the sky—each one more breathtaking than the last.
Standing beneath the luminous explosions, Freya began her proposal. She took the ring from the hovering drone,
her nerves tangling together as she asked, “Ellis Lambert, will you—"
“Not so fast,” Ellis cut in without warning.
He gently placed a finger against her lips, halting her mid-sentence. He believed a proposal was the man’s duty.
As she stood frozen, wide-eyed, Ellis reached into his pocket, drew out a velvet ring box, and flipped it open
before her. In that moment, everything snapped into place.
“When | was twenty-two, | met a woman—she caught my eye the first time, sparked my interest the second
time, and stole my heart the third time.” He lowered himself onto one knee, his voice deep and laced with quiet
emotion. “That woman was you, just joining the organization.”
Freya stood still as stone.

Ellis’s gaze was filled with such tenderness it nearly made her breath hitch. “I want to give you a life full of
happiness, and protect you from every burden. Freya, will you marry me?”
Above them, the fireworks reached their crescendo, lighting the sky with a dreamlike glow.
Cheers erupted around them.
“Say yes!”
“Say yes!”
“Say yes!”
