Freya remained completely unaware.
If Ethan accidentally let something slip, who knew how she’d react, how far she’d pull away afterward. Freya saw
him end the call and assumed the conversation was over. She didn’t give it a second thought.
Ellis was relieved the call hadn’t been on speaker. If Freya had overheard, she might've started to suspect
something.
After dinner, Freya went home.
Ellis stayed behind on the sofa, running through every possibility in his head, searching for sway—any way
