q“I'm glad you like it. I asked my men to prepare it a long time ago. Please bring these
back too.”
The way Federico was all smiles made him seem as if he was a friendly and kind man.
“You have my thanks.” Danrique nodded, smiling.
Sean then stepped forward to receive the box of black tea with a bow.
“I've brought a gift for Your Majesty too,” Danrique said, gesturing to Sean.
After Sean passed the box to Mylo, he handed a fancy gift box to Silas, who was beside the
king.
When Silas opened it and took a peek, his brows raised, and he quickly whispered
something to Federico.
Federico's slight furrow of his brows relaxed, and he burst into laughter. “Hahaha! Mr.
Lindberg, you're too kind.”
“It's nothing, Your Majesty.” Danrique curled his lips. “I've been friends with William for
many years. In fact, you'll be akin to my grandfather, so please just call me by my name.”
“Sure, Danrique.”
The king was delighted, for his eyes were even crescents from beaming.
Francesca stared at the box as frustration bloomed like a flower in her chest.
What did Danrique give to make Federico as happy as this? If I knew that he was going to
lose so much on this trip, I wouldn't have let him come. I'd rather risk my life to get out of
here than let him shower the king with money and gifts... That's so much money... My
heart aches.
“How is Mr. President? It's been a while since I've seen him. The last I saw him, he looked
as healthy as a horse.”
“He's pretty good. He hes esked me to convey his greetings to you.”

“He's pretty good. He has asked me to convey his greetings to you.”
“Hahaha! I've always talked about visiting Xendale, but alas, I'm old and no longer as
sturdy as I used to be. I'm afraid I can't stand the cold, so I didn't dare to visit.”
“Your worries are for naught, Your Majesty. The spaces within Xendale's buildings are
warm.”
“I was there a few years ago. The way the snow fluttered toward the ground was a grand
sight to behold.”
“Danontand is a beautiful land as well. I was fortunate to have witnessed the magnificent
night view on the plane.”
“Do stay for a few days more. I've already prepared a guest room for you and Francesca.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
The two men exchanged polite small talk that Francesca did not pay attention to at all.
Her eyes were fixed on the gift box, wondering what Danrique had given to the king.
“This is the second time Francesca has visited the palace. The last time she was here, it
was with William. When I saw the intimate way they interacted with each other, I thought
that William had brought his fiancée to me! Haha!”

deliberately trying to create a misunderstanding.

good girl. Hahaha!”
“She's young and insensible. If she has done anything to accidentally offend you, Your
