Chapter 594:
Ellis paused and thought his father was still so childish.
“Captain, we've arrived at your destination,” Freya announced, pulling up beside a sprawling mall that blended
shopping and dining in one sleek complex.
Ellis gave it a glance. “Let's head to the parking lot.”
Freya blinked, confused.
“Let's grab a meal together,” Ellis said, his tone light, his chiseled features relaxed. “It's the perfect opportunity
to make a good impression on my future boss.”
Freya hesitated. “Captain...” She felt like he was teasing her.
still, she turned the car toward the lot.
To keep his phone from blowing up later, Ellis sent a friend request to his dad, then texted his mother, Kendra

Ellis didn’t know how to respond. He reached out and gently tapped her forehead.
She looked up at him. “Hmm?”
“Don’t go trusting men too easily.” A cocktail of emotions stirred within Ellis. She was a little too trusting for her
own good. It worked in his favor, sure, but he didn’t want her to get hurt someday.
“I know,” Freya replied. “But you're different. You're our captain.”
Whether it was her, Trent, or Frederick, they’d always rally behind their captain whenever he needed them—just
as he had stood by them in the past. To them, he wasn’t just a leader. He was family.
Because of that bond, there was never the slightest trace of romantic tension between her and Trent—and as for
Ellis, Freya had never once believed their captain harbored any feelings for her beyond camaraderie.
