NovelUpdateChapter 837:
Once the laughter died down, she turned to ask how Ellis and Freya had first met.
Freya didn’t hold anything back—she recounted everything without hesitation.
The moment Kendra heard that Freya had once been Ellis’s team member, her expression clouded with concern.
“Oh, you poor thing! Ellis is absolutely ruthless when it comes to training. You must've gone through so much
under him, didn’t you?”
“It was manageable,” Freya said gently, hoping to put her at ease. “The strict training was really for our own
benefit.”
“From now on, you must treat Freya well, you got that?” Kendra said, half-joking, half-serious, directing a pointed
look at Ellis.
Ellis, clearly amused by the entire exchange, allowed a faint smile to tug at the corner of his mouth. “Got it.”
“Let’s eat first,” Kendra said, taking Freya's hand affectionately. It was obvious how much she already liked her.
“I wasn’t sure what your favorite foods were. When | asked Ellis, he said you weren't picky, so | made a bit of
everything.”
“I hope I'm not being a bother,” Freya replied with a courteous smile.

As the meal began, Freya found herself seated between Kendra and Ellis.
In the beginning, everyone focused on eating, while Kendra took tto explain the sentimental meaning behind
each dish to Freya. After a while, she began shooting subtle looks at Ellis. Regrettably, Ellis remained oblivious.
Eventually, unable to stay silent, Kendra blurted out, “Ellis, serve Freya sfood. There are a few things she
can’t reach.”
“Alright,” Ellis agreed without hesitation.
Throughout the meal, Freya found herself continuously being served one dish after another. Thankfully, Ellis
didn’t rush her—he only offered the next bite once she'd finished the last.

Freya tried to stop him, but it was pointless. Ellis simply said, “Orders are orders. If | don’t follow through, I'll get
chewed out after you leave.”
Freya didn’t question him. After all, he was her team captain—there was no reason to think he'd lie.
Once lunch was over, desserts and fruit were brought out.
Just when it seemed another round of small talk was about to begin, Ellis rose and walked over to Freya. Turning
to his parents, he said, “She should get srest. I'll drive her back.”
“You're not staying for dinner?” Kendra asked, clearly taken aback. She hadn't fully processed his words. “Why
not celebrate Christmas with us?”
“Mom,” Ellis said gently as he approached her, “didn’t we agree we were only coming for lunch?”
Kendra fell silent. She clearly didn’t want Freya to leave just yet. They hadn’t even had a proper chat!
“We'll head out now,” Ellis announced, taking Freya's hand as he spoke to his parents.
Freya offered a polite farewell,
“Goodbye, Mr. and Yeon!
