Chapter 1204:
If there had been any hint of mistrust between them, this kind of arrangement would have been entirely out of
line. But Ellis had complete faith in Freya, and she was fully devoted to him. So, in truth, whose nthe
properties ended up under was inconsequential.
Ellis said, “If you don’t sign, I'll just assyou're planning your escape.” For once, he was clearly pushing the
issue.
Freya pressed her lips together, and in the end, she signed.
Afterward, she asked softly, “Aren't you scared Ill take everything and vanish?”
Ellis replied, “You might run, but you won't be able to hide.”
Freya responded, “I actually might be able to.”
Ellis said, “Then I'll go tell your dad.”
Freya gave up trying to argue. Speople, no matter how serious they appeared on the outside, could be

Once outside with the papers, Locke shot Ellis a message, his curiosity impossible to hold back. “You're giving all

partners who can count on each other when it counts.”
They had stared death in the face and clawed their way through hell together. He trusted Freya, just as she
trusted him.
Locke smiled at the response, then turned to process the documents. If Ellis believed in this as deeply as he did,
he would give his blessing without question. Ellis and Freya were bound to find forever in each other.
“Ellis,” Freya said gently, her lips drawing together.
Ellis had just replied to a message. As he lifted his head, sunlight washed over his face—noble, at ease, and so
striking that she couldn't look away. She was momentarily dazed.
Ellis didn’t catch the flicker in her gaze. “What’s wrong?”
