Chapter 1068: The tricky thing about healing-once the wounds start to close, one forgets how deep they were.

After a pause, she finally spoke. Her voice was level, calm, but there was a layer underneath-something tender, tangled. "Makes sense he came," she said quietly. "October's his kid too." Freya didn't say more. She knew Felipe didn't cjust for the baby-he cfor Farrah. And Farrah knew it too.

But with that one sentence, Farrah had drawn a line. Clear and firm-she wanted nothing to do with Felipe.

"I'll go talk to him,” she said, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear, her voice steady. "About October." "Go ahead." Freya nodded. "I'll watch the baby." Looking at the tiny baby snoozing peacefully on the bed, Freya's lips curved into a soft smile. She had to fight the urge to gently poke one of her squishy little cheeks.

Her heart felt... full. Like it was overflowing with something warm.

She pulled out her phone and started typing a message to Ellis. Before hitting send, she muted her custom ringtone. No way she was waking the baby.

"When are we having a baby?" she asked.

Right then, Ellis had just passed off all his work to his secretary. Seeing Freya's message, he set his phone down for half a second-then grinned and picked it right back up. "After we get married." Love, proposals, marriage, family-one step at a time.

Locke, Ellis's assistant, was standing nearby, arms full of files, patiently waiting. He caught the look on Ellis's face and instantly made a guess-Ellis must be texting his girlfriend.

"Sir," Locke started.

Locke hesitated, then asked-more nosy than concerned, "You texting your girlfriend?" Ellis raised a brow, then gave a small nod, his smirk giving him away. Locke couldn't help himself. "So... can your girlfriend beat you in a fight?" Ellis glanced at him. “I can protect her." Locke blinked, thrown off.

He stood there, unsure how to voice his thoughts.

Ellis noticed his hesitation. "What's wrong?" "Didn't you always say you wanted someone stronger than you? Someone who could protect you?" Locke asked, holding onto the stack of documents-but clearly more interested in the than the paperwork. "What made you change your standards?" Ellis leaned back in his chair, eyes half-lidded. "You wouldn't get it." Locke looked genuinely puzzled.

Ellis looked over at him, just after firing off another text. He spoke m slowly, clearly, "When you really love someone, you don't mind letting them take the lead. If it's her..... I'm happy to change my standards."

Locke was stunned into silence. This was a level of romance he wasn't prepared for.

Ellis handed him the last file from his drawer. "Everything major's handled. comes's If something comes up you can't deal with, givea call. Otherwise, trust your judgment."
