FakeNovelChapter 1015: Freya replied, "What?" Riley chimed in, "The ring. How are you going to propose without a ring?" Reading that, Freya was struck with realization.
Oh right, the ring...
But she didn't know Ellis's ring size.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf it were anyone else, she might have found a sneaky way to measure it—but Ellis was too sharp. Even when he was dead asleep, he'd notice her creeping into his room-let alone touching his hand.
She thought hard but couldn't cup with a foolproof solution. Greta and Riley then started talking about where to celebrate her birthday that night.
During the exchange, Freya had a flash of inspiration and threw the idea into the chat.
Riley replied, "Absolutely not." Greta also said, "Nope." Freya asked, "Why not?" Riley said, "Who in their right mind would dare get him drunk?" Greta added, "I'm not looking to get on his bad side. But if you really want his ring size without tipping him off, I know a way." Freya asked, "What?" Greta replied, "Get him in bed and make sure he's completely worn out." Riley asked, "Are you sure he won't be the one who wears Freya out?" Freya responded, "This is a chat room; have sdecency." As their ideas got increasingly ridiculous, Freya shut them down with a trail of ellipses and emojis. Their conversation had gone off the rails. Realizing she couldn't rely on them, she turned to Trent and Frederick. She knew as long as she cup with a convincing excuse, they'd play along.
And sure enough, she was right.
She told Trent and Frederick that she wanted to formally introduce Ellis to her father, but she needed to see how Ellis behaved in a relaxed setting first. They instantly agreed.
They figured meeting the parents would mean lots of drinks anyway, and Freya was just being thoughtful about Ellis's tolerance.
"Don't worry, Freya!" Frederick said reassuringly, even promising, "Tonight, we'll make sure our captain is completely drunk." "Very, very drunk." "No sweat!" Frederick was all-in.
Trent didn't overthink it either. He figured Freya had finally cm around, reversuspecting it was all part of a grander scheme. With their help secured, Freya booked a restaurant for that evening's gathering.
As for Moss and Cade-she kept quiet on purpose. Once Trent anch Frederick started drinking with Ellis, the rest would join in without hesitation. If she said anything in advance, it might ruin the surprise.
As evening descended, Trent and Frederick fulfilled their promise to Freya. Midway through thesumptuous meat, they raised their glasses, initiating a series of heartfelt toasts to commemorate her special day. Naturally, these toasts weren't intended for Freya to consin their entirety. "Happy birthday, Freya!" Frederick and Trent exclaimed in perfect unison, their glasses gleaming under the ambient light.
