Chapter 192: Effectiveness

Ezekiel contemplated Cora's suggestion for a while.

"How about trying a different approach this time, Your Majesty? You know the saying, 'absence makes the heart grow fonder'? You've shown your presence enough. Let her miss you during the journey to Haven Forest."

"Will that even work?" Ezekiel murmured as he rode alongside Cora. They were back on the road, but he was dying to be with Katelina in her carriage.

[Clingy,] Khal commented, but as usual, Ezekiel ignored it. He wasn't the type to keep his emotions bottled up. Signaling a halt, he said, "I feel so tired."

He then looked at Cora and instructed, "Go to the Queen Regent's carriage and ask if I can ride with her. Tell her I feel dizzy because of lack of sleep and that riding a horse right now is inconvenient."

Cora blinked at him in disbelief, but when he frowned, she quickly reined her horse and approached the Queen Regent's carriage.
