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

Levant giggled and queried in return, “Nicole! I’m afraid that the information that you’ve received isn’t complete!

“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?”
