q“I'm not angry.” Danrique flashed a faint smile. He then pointed at Francesca and said, “I'm just afraid that she might get pissed off. You know how women are, right? I'm not so good at appeasing her.”

With that, he turned toward Francesca and asked, “Are you still mad?”

Francesca shook her head absent-mindedly because she was still dumbfounded.

“That's good. That's good.” Federico forced a smile. In order to ease the tension, he changed the topic by asking, “Are you guys hungry? Would you like to have some food?”

“That won't be necessary,” Danrique replied while putting his cup aside. While acting as if he was leaving, he said, “I would like to visit William.”

“Huh?” Federico was stumped. What is he up to now?

“Not only is he a good friend of mine, but he's also a business partner of Lindberg Corporation. Since I've come to Danontand, how could I not visit him? By the way, Your Majesty, I heard he has fallen sick. Is it serious?” Danrique asked with a straight face.

“It's just an old illness.” Federico smiled. “Since it's already so late and Francesca is injured, perhaps you all shouldn't go to the hospital. Why don't you stay in the palace? I can get someone to bring him here.”

“That sounds good.” Danrique nodded immediately.

Federico gestured at Silas, who immediately obliged his king's instructions. Before Silas left, he even shot Francesca a grateful look.

Meanwhile, Francesca was looking at Danrique gratefully. He knew what was on my mind. Before I even said it, he had already done me the favor.
