I'm Not Going To Marry Him

Once the king and Queen left the dining, Dan passed his phone to Ben, "I realized I don't have your contact number. Please give it to me," Dan said, and Ben took the phone and punched in Bella's number before returning it to Dan.

Immediately, Dan rose and left the dining, and before Ben could stop Nicole, she rose and ran after Dan, confirming his suspicion that whatever was bothering her was related to Dan.

"Dan," Nicole called as she ran after him, and he turned to her.

"Did you find her?" She asked in a quiet voice meant for him alone.

"No, I didn't. Have you noticed anything different about the Princess?" Dan asked, referring to Ben, and Nicole looked at him curiously.

"Like what? And why were you asking for the wedding to be pushed forward when you know they have no idea where she is?" Nicole asked as they walked into Dan's bedroom.
