Over the next few days, Brielle was completely absorbed in designing the wedding invitations. She added her own creative spin while seamlessly blending in Max's ideas. Since Max had returned, he had Patrick brought over from North America. Patrick was practically bouncing with excitement, as if he was walking on air.
"Boss?"
"Boss!"
Patrick was like someone finally coming home after a long journey, tears glistening in his eyes as he stood off to the side. Max, as usual, stayed calm and simply glanced at him.
Patrick quickly wiped his tears, repeating, "It's really good, really good." It took a few tries for him to calm down and regain his usual cool demeanor.
Now, both Patrick and Joseph were staying at the Premier Palace. However, Joseph hadn't heard his master call for him in days and was starting to feel a bit aimless. Meanwhile, Patrick was thriving, constantly at Max's side, making Joseph feel increasingly unnecessary.
And what about King? Where was his master? Days had passed without any sign of him. Every time Patrick passed by Joseph, he carried himself with a sense of pride, like a favorite courtier. Joseph couldn't shake off a feeling of unease, wishing King would reappear. Max's icy demeanor was hard for him to handle, like a chill that seeped into his bones. King might have been distant too, but he had a playful side.
Joseph found himself hoping each day for King's return, but as the next week rolled around, nothing changed. Max was still Max, with no trace of King appearing. Brielle seemed unfazed, busy with the invitations, until Joseph couldn't hold back any longer and knocked on the study door.
"Ms. Brielle."
Brielle was tweaking her designs on the computer and responded, "Come in."
Joseph entered, looking humble and respectful. "Ms. Brielle, do you know when the master will be back?"
Brielle paused, realizing she didn't know. "Joseph, I'm sorry, I really don't know."
