Chapter 380:

Normally, courting someone wouldn’t warrant such a grand proclamation, but Cedric’s enthusiasm made it sound like he’d already swept Daniela off her feet and they were preparing for their wedding.

“Ah…courting,” Marlin echoed thoughtfully, glancing at Daniela. She gave him a smile and asked, “Marlin, was there something you wanted to talk about?”
