Chapter 1202:
“Quit staring at her,” Ellis said, his voice carrying a hint of warning. “You're representing Lambert Group, not just
yourself.”
Locke, quick on his feet, caught the irritation in Ellis’s voice and flashed a sheepish grin. “I was just curious about
the woman who stole your heart, that's all,” he said, laying the truth bare.
Ellis gave him a pointed look. “And now that you've seen her?”
“I've seen her,” Locke said, still smiling.
“Then you know where the door is,” Ellis said, his tone blunt as a hammer.
Locke froze, caught off guard. Was Ellis really being this cold?

Locke, undeterred, silently mouthed, “Just one more peek at Ms. Briggs.”
“She’s my fiancée,” Ellis said with his eyes.

In the end, Ellis didn’t send Locke packing. Instead, he handed the folder to Freya. “This is for you. Just sign when
you're ready.”
Freya took it, her brow furrowing. “What's this about?” she asked, her curiosity piqued.
Before she could flip it open, Ellis answered with a casual smile. “Betrothal presents.”
Freya blinked, caught completely off guard. She stared at him, her mind spinning like a top.
When she saw the pages listing the gifts, her jaw nearly dropped. It was practically an empire handed over on
paper.
She sat there, stunned, her thoughts a jumbled mess. Were these just betrothal gifts or a full-on transfer of
everything he owned?
“It’s a bit simple, so don’t hold it against me,” Ellis said lightly, a teasing lilt in his voice.
Locke's lips twitched, barely hiding his amusement. Simple? If his memory was correct, that folder held nearly all
of Ellis’s properties and shares in Lambert Group's subsidiaries. If not for spesky inheritance rules, even the
main holdings might have been included.

Freya pushed the folder back toward Ellis. “I can’t accept this,” she said firmly.
Ellis arched a brow, his tone playful. “What, too small?”
She shot him a look that could stop

The cash alone was over fifty million. The properties? Priceless. The company shares? Beyond measure.
“I didn’t choose you for your money,” Freya said, her voice steady. “We don’t need all this.”

serious. “I hear ARQ wantyou to
