Capítulo 216: Smiling Deviously

King Arnold waited for Bel to finish eating before he started speaking. His eyes never strayed from her once, and Bel found herself adjusting uneasily as she ate, but she chalked it up to everything she had been through and just concentrated on her food. It was a good meal and she could almost feel her energy return.

"Did you like it?" he asked as the servants cleared the dishes.

Bel nodded. "It was quite delicious." She didn't miss the fact that they were now alone in the dining room.

"That's good. Please make any requests you want. Hubert is a close acquaintance of mine, so consider this your home too. I know we got off on the wrong foot before, but I am glad I can help."

Bel smiled tightly; she felt a little lightheaded still, but nothing to worry about. "Thank you once again."

Arnold nodded. "I don't like that I have to bring this up so quickly, but could you tell me what happened?" King Arnold asked.
