Tristan stared at Maristella deeply, his heart beating fast. He was not in love with Maristella; his heart was working harder than usual because he was worried.
This was not the first time his heart was beating fast because of the feeling of worry that gripped his chest tightly. Almost every day, he faced problems that could make him stressed.
Tristan would never let Maristella meet Carlos Madigan. He could not imagine if his assumption was correct that Maristella had a witch friend.
Tristan racked his brain. He had to be able to distract Maristella from Carlos Madigan, or he had to be able to explain why he couldn't bring Maristella to meet Carlos Madigan.
Maristella looked at Tristan in confusion. Why didn't the king of the Madigan Kingdom answer her right away? It took him a long time to decide on such a trivial thing.
