?Chapter 1212:
Freya shifted her mood and pushed the topic aside, redirecting her attention elsewhere. “Ellis, we’re supposed to get our marriage license in two days, right?” she said, her voice carrying a hint of anticipation.
Ellis nced at her with mild amusement. “Your memory serves you well.”
Freya leaned forward slightly, her curiosity evident. “I need to ask you something.”
“I’m listening.”
She fixed him with a direct stare, her question loaded with purpose. “Remember what you said during your proposal? You mentioned the first three meetings between us. What exactly did you mean by that?” She expected a real answer.
Ellis decided to let her work through the puzzle on her own. “The first time revolved around that old watch of mine,” he said with deliberate vagueness.
The watch?
Her mind immediately circled back to his old watch. Why did everything keeping back to that watch?
She wracked her brain, trying to forge some connection, but came up empty. “When exactly?”
“Figure it out yourself.”
Freya’s eyes narrowed as she yed her trump card. “If you don’t spill the details, Greta and Riley will definitely stir up drama on our big day.” The threat hung in the air between them.
But she had forgotten one crucial detail: Ellis wasn’t the type of man who bent under pressure.
Ellis studied her with unhurried calm, his voice carrying both casualness and steel. “Are you actually threatening me right now?”
“You could see it that way,” she replied, holding her ground.<fn55e1> Latest content published on Find_Novel(.</fn55e1>
“It sounds like you don’t care for me very much.”
His words caught her off guard. What was he getting at?
He pressed on, his voice softening with mock disappointment. “You can’t even recall our first meeting.”

The man was absolutely infuriating with his mind games.
Freya felt the words stick in her throat. Realizing she wouldn’t get any answers from him, she resigned herself to puzzling it out alone.
However, she truly couldn’t understand how a watch was connected to their history. Hadn’t their first encounter been when he had lectured her and her friends about their performance?
Ellis watched her internal struggle with quiet satisfaction. Even now, he could vividly recall that initial meeting—her skills had been rough around the edges, but she had the spirit of a fierce, determined little warrior, radiating boundless energy and fight. She had been clearly inexperienced, yet she carried herself with the confidence of a seasoned professional. The memory brought genuine warmth to his eyes and quietughter.
How fortunate he felt. Freya’s entire future now belonged to him, and he would spend his life ensuring her safety and happiness.
On May 20th, Freya and Ellis officially obtained their marriage license. Afterward, they returned home together. Greta, Riley, and the rest of their close circle had already assembled at their house, waiting with barely contained excitement.
