The sudden arrival of Ivan left the entire palace in confusion and frenzy.
How not, the leave given by the chef was still valid and he had returned to the palace a week before his leave was completed.
"Why did you come back sooner, Ivan? Isn't your cut long?"
The white bear took a long breath. There seemed to be a problem during her time off.
"My mom..."
"Huh?! What happened to your mother?!" bianca was shocked and panicked. Is his mother dead?
"When I came home, my mother was happy and welcomed my return, but..."
"But?"
"My mom told me to quit my job here and be told to go home."
Turns out the problem....
"If your mother asks that it's okay. Your mother is old and who should take care of her."
"If the problem is my mother has taken care of her herself, but the problem is..." Bianca waited for the chef's answer.
"His problem?"
"My mother has betrothed me to the female she chose."
"Oh... That's prayer-Huh?! That's right!!"
Ivan scratched his head that was not itching.
"Keep... How'd you respond?"
"Of course I refused. I've explained to my mother that I don't want to get married right now and we end up fighting until I get back to the palace."
Dumplings... If the problem of family is complicated.
"Lohs?! Why are you back here? Your cut isn't too long?" suddenly Mark came to the queen and Ivan.
"Ah... Apparently you, General."
"What's this about? It seems you're having a hard time, Ivan."
Bianca explained the chef's problem and Markus nodded.
"Have you explained your mother, Ivan?"
"I've explained it well, but my mother insists that her son should get married soon."
Bianca suddenly asked the white bear. " Do you have a boyfriend, Ivan?"
Hearing that, Ivan was immediately surprised instead of playing. " P-boyfriend?! P-boyfriend I don't have as long as I live."
"I know why your mother forced you to marry another woman because she thought you didn't do it."
The three of them were silent to each other. Mark's words are true.... But it does not have to be expressed directly as well.
"Your words are correct, General. My mother seemed to be worried about me being too busy with my work, so she thought I wasn't doing it."
"Then... Do you have a female you like? What do you mean you're taking it?"
Ivan seemed to think for a moment. " It doesn't seem to exist" he said shaking his head weakly.
Both Bianca and Markus just let out a long sigh. If this continues, Ivan's mother will continue to force the palace chef to be married immediately.
"Then... Do you have any female friends - I mean 'female' friends'?" bianca asked continuing the question to Ivan.
"My 'woman' friends are just you, Gerda, and General Harris, your majesty," Bianca and Mark immediately let out a long sigh.
It's a lot harder.
...****************...
"Your majesty? Why are you here?" giselle asked in astonishment to see the queen peering behind the kitchen door.
"God!! Just be surprised!!" he cried in shock while stroking his chest.
"I'm sorry, your honor. I don't mean to surprise you" Giselle apologized and felt guilty.
"There's no need to apologize, Giselle. It's just a small accident."
"So... Why are you here?" giselle asked once more and Bianca immediately pulled Giselle and pointed towards Ivan who was busy cooking.
"I'm watching Ivan."
"Why Ivan?" Bianca explained what had happened and Giselle's reaction was instantly shocked and pityed by the palace chef.
"Goddessa... I feel sorry for him."
"From your story, it seems we should introduce these women to him."
"How is it?" bianca asked the eldest daughter of Mark.
"Why don't you take Ivan to the bar or where? More than two is also good and can also meet a soul mate there."
That's a great idea!!
"What's? You ask me to accompany the walk?" Bianca nodded.
"Just calm... Not only the two of us, Giselle will come with us."
Giselle immediately pointed to herself who said why to come along.
Ivan seemed to be hesitant about the queen's invitation.
"But... Why should I? Why don't you bring the others?"
"Can't I take you for a walk?" tanya Bianca has a waist.
"N-no, your honor... S-I'll come with you."
"Good!! Come on, Giselle, we have to get ready to go, "in the meantime Giselle just put on a resigned face and confused why she should come along.
...****************...
"Woaah... It's really delicious!! You are great at choosing a good restaurant" Bianca told Ivan.
Ivan only laughed blushingly while scratching his back head which was not itchy. " Haha... You don't praise me, I mean miss."
"Ohh... Ivan's? Are you Ivan?" Giselle, Bianca, and Ivan immediately turned their heads toward the origin of the voice.
A woman from the Ortaz tribe approached the three who were enjoying a meal.
"N-can't you be Tessa? Tessa, right?" the woman named Tessa nodded steadily.
"God!! How are you, Ivan? I hear you're working at the palace now, right?"
"L-yes... I-I work there," meanwhile Bianca and Giselle take the two of them seriously.
"Pst... His majesty. You feel, not that Ivan seems uncomfortable," Bianca nodded in agreement.
"The woman spoke normally. Why is she scared, huh?" the woman said goodbye to Ivan and after the woman's departure, Giselle and Bianca immediately interrogated him.
"You know him, Ivan?" ask Bianca
"Huh? K-know the hell..."
"It seems you're uncomfortable when the woman talks to you," then Giselle asks the chef.
"I-it's... I-I don't really know why I was that scared when he asked me to talk."
"You don't know?" Ivan replied while shaking his head weakly.
"I'm also confused as to why this is so, when I'm used to it when you guys talk to me."
True too... Why could that be, huh?
"What is the woman talking about?" then Bianca changed the topic.
"Just usually.... Just how am I doing, how am I doing in the palace, and whether you have any spare time this weekend, that's it..."
"Wait-wait!! He told you that there was free time?" suddenly Giselle began to wake up.
"Yes. Why?"
"He's asking you out, Ivan!!" exclaiming Giselle loudly made the visitors at the restaurant immediately turned to the table Bianca cs.
"Giselle..." Call Bianca to commemorate the young girl.
"I'm sorry, your honor," Giselle replied in a small voice.
"Dating?" The two women immediately turned their heads towards Ivan back on the topic.
"How did you answer?"
"I rejected it," the two of them immediately let out a long sigh.
He had suspected that Ivan had refused a date.
"Am I wrong?"
"T-no... You're not wrong" replied Bianca and both Bianca and Giselle looked at each other.
He had to find a way to keep Ivan from being betrothed by his mother.
