"Chef Michael!" called Ronan.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" replied chef Michael loudly.
"Where is Arielle now?" the man asked, making Chef Michael feel guilty.
"Uhm… H-Her Highness Princess Arielle had spent some time here and had gone back. B-but I don't know where she went," Chef Michael stammered.
Ronan checked everyone there. Not one of them dared to raise their heads. Several people were holding brooms and other cleaning tools. Arielle might have just finished playing in the kitchen, so they just had a chance to clean it.
Ronan then left the kitchen and looked for other clues about Arielle's whereabouts. His fist loosened. He was no longer angry. There was a sense of awe that made Ronan smile a little.
It was like playing hide and seek again. But this time, he wasn't too excited because all he wanted was Arielle and to spend time with the girl.
