Chapter 445: Blackmailed
Abel didn’t bother forcing Dani to give him her answer knowing that she was caught off guard by his sudden suggestion of making things real between them. Instead, he just kept on pressing on, determined to take advantage of his current position.
"You don’t need to answer me now. Tell me your thoughts about it once you’re ready, Dani," he said with a smile before grabbing her hand. Pulling her with him, he said, "Come and let’s roam around some more."
"I don’t think so. We should head back to the manor now, Abel," Dani retorted. "We just bought a lot of things, and we can continue roaming around tomorrow after attending Krisha’s wedding."
Right... Tomorrow was Taro and Krisha’s wedding, then their wedding would soon follow the next day. To be honest, Abel was still in awe of how things turned out. Still, he was glad things worked out for Taro after Dani turned him down.
Also, he admired how fast Taro moved to mark Krisha in a flash. Abel could only guess that he had learned his lesson of acting fast after he managed to snatch Dani away from him. After all, he knew how she and Taro had become closely acquainted right from the start.
"Alright, let’s do that then," Abel muttered before pulling Dani by the waist. "Hold onto me tightly."
She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, and a satisfied smile formed on his lips before he shifted into his mist form. One thing came to the next, and they arrived at Wright Manor by the time it was late afternoon.
"Oh, you two finally arrived." Duchess Donna excitedly greeted them with Duke George. Abel gave them a curt bow, then she turned to him and said, "Can I borrow Dani for a while? I want her to try out her wedding gown to see if it needs more adjustments."
"Of course, Duchess," Abel nodded with a smile.
