Chapter 249: Shocking News
As scheduled, Mineah stayed the night at an inn at Ursa with Niran staying with her where they shared a dinner together.
"Will His Majesty come to you tonight?" Niran curiously asked.
"I’m not sure. He’s quite busy now, and he’ll be even busier now since he wants to tidy up matters with Haman while we’re looking for an opportunity to save Zoran," Mineah replied with a smile. "They usually only move at night, so Lai’s making sure to keep a close eye on them at this hour. How about you?! How are you and Raul doing?"
She didn’t bother reading Niran’s thoughts this time. Lately, her thoughts only contained mostly private affairs whenever she would ask about her relationship, and it wasn’t something Mineah would ever want to have knowledge of.
In truth, she felt bad that she even tried reading Niran’s thoughts out of worry for her, but seeing how her friend’s mind would wander onto sensitive, well... private and wild moments with her husband whenever she would ask about their relationship. So she finally decided to stop reading her thoughts anymore.... Unless something else happened, she supposed.
Back to her question, Niran offered Mineah a bashful smile and replied, "Please, milady. I’m doing well, and Raul, although he’s still not treating me as sweet as before, he’s already warming up for me." She lightly chuckled as she added, "It’ll take time, but I’m confident that the two of us will be able to pull through. I just need to woo him back into trusting me again."
"Well, I’m glad to hear it. It’s just that I couldn’t help but want to check on you more often," Mineah winked. "I’ll try to tone it down from now on."
From there, she went ahead and changed the topic to the next province that they needed to visit and what they should expect. All the while, she was glad Niran was with her through it all. It was nice to have someone she really knew. A friend that she sincerely trusted.
"Would you want to have a moment with our Seer?" Mineah suddenly asked. "We can arrange that once we attend Dani’s marriage at Ebodia."
