“What else could it be?”

Nicole gave it a thought and decided to bring up her father’s disappearance in front of Levant.

 
 

“I’ve heard that my father has gone missing after he’d made a trip over to Wicked Palace. May I know what’s going on?”

Levant giggled and queried in return, “Nicole! I’m afraid that the information that you’ve received isn’t complete! My father had asked your father over for a few glasses of drinks, but your father had long made his way back after that. He’s no longer in Wicked Palace. Why? Has he not made his way home yet?”

“Levant, are you sure that my father has left Wicked Palace? Why am I unable to reach him?”

 

Levant picked up the glass of wine that had been served and gulped it down within a few seconds. He ignored her question and directed another question at her. “Nicole, are you asking me for a favor to search for your father?”

 

Nicole was speechless at his words.

Stop with your acting! I’m pretty sure that my father is somewhere in Wicked Palace! It’s not a request because it’s a demand! I want you to send my father back immediately!

 

Nicole had her eyes glued to the man in front of her, casting a stern gaze at Levant.

Similarly, Levant was aware of the things that she would possibly have in mind.
