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.
