Chapter 836:
It wasn’t going to be easy.
“We'll handle that when it comes,” Ellis said after thinking for a moment.
Freya took another small sip and opened her mouth as if to speak again, but in the end, she said nothing more.
She had made a conscious decision not to bring any gifts this time.
She was only playing the role of Ellis’s girlfriend; bringing gifts that charmed his parents might complicate things
for whoever truly cinto his life later. It was better to arrive empty-handed.
“What are you thinking about?” Ellis tapped her forehead lightly.
Freya considered her words before speaking. “I think you shouldn't have someone fake being your girlfriend just
to fool your parents. If someone plays the role too well, it might cause problems for the real one later.”
“I know what I'm doing. Don’t worry,” Ellis said confidently.
Since he said so, Freya decided to trust him.
In her view, he always thought things through, and even if complications arose, he would know how to handle
them.

“He doesn’t rely onto get everything,” Freya said, unsure what Ellis had told them but wanting to clarify.
“He’s capable, intelligent, and resourceful. It’s just that after spending so long in the organization, he’s a bit
disconnected from everyday routines. He just needs stto adjust. I'm simply giving him a hand.”
Kendra and Caldwell exchanged looks of quiet surprise.
They had no idea what Ellis had told Freya to make her say something like “a bit disconnected from everyday
routines.”
But one thing was certain: Freya was sweet, trusting, and innocent.
“You really don’t think that’s a problem?” Caldwell asked, his tone serious.
Freya replied calmly, “I don’t.”
“You should be more cautious going forward,” Caldwell said, his disapproval thinly veiled. “Speople coff
as honest but are actually full of tricks.”
“How can you say that in front of Freya?” Kendra shot him a disapproving look.
