Chapter 416: Off My Woman
As was the case, Abel had become busy due to the tasks Nikolai left him while he was away. It was also a fact that he had a problem with the strong urge he had to follow Dani. She had just left yesterday with the King and Queen, so they were probably by the Miran Ocean at the moment.
"I thought the Chancellor of this kingdom is a very hardworking man? How come you’re zoning out like that?"
Abel rolled his eyes at Fritz’s sudden appearance. He then unknowingly chuckled as he recalled Dani’s annoyed expression whenever he would just pop up in front of her.
"So this is how it feels?" Abel subconsciously muttered.
"Are you alright, Chancellor?" Fritz snorted as he sat down in front of him. "You’re even talking and grinning to yourself now. Anyway, what are these petitions?"
Abel stared at Fritz as his friend curiously stared at the documents on the table. A wide smile then appeared on his lips as an idea came to his mind. Likewise, Fritz probably felt his intense gaze, so he raised his head to look back at him.

"Remember the last poker game we did last summer where you lost? I haven’t claimed my request for you yet as we agreed," Abel started with a wide smile. "Now is the time for you to grant that request. You do know that I’m soon to be a husband, so..."
"What the hell," Fritz suspiciously stated. "Are you planning to have me take over your work?"
