Xara glanced at James and seated herself.
“A-Are you General Highsmith?” Xara’s eyes gleamed.
Daniel looked at James.
James laughed. “Xara, his name’s Danny. He’s not a general.”
“H-He’s right.” Daniel quickly nodded in agreement. “Miss… Xara, was it? I’m not a general. My name’s Daniel… Sorry, Danny. I just look similar to Daniel.”
He stumbled over his words.
Hearing this, Zara let loose a hearty laugh.
She did not expect the majestic-looking General on TV to have such a cute side to him.
She knew that the person before her was indeed General Highsmith. She had watched the Blithe King’s succession ceremony countless times. There was no way that she could mistake him for someone else.
No way. He had to be Daniel.
‘Danny? Seriously?’
“General Highsmith, I really look up to you. C-Can I get a picture with you?” Xara blushed as she summoned the courage to ask him for a favor.
“Uhm?” Daniel glanced at James.
James said with a smile, “Feel free. It doesn’t cost you a lot.”
Daniel nodded in agreement. “T-Then, let’s take a photo.”
Xara was delighted. She headed toward Daniel and sat next to him, though she was careful not to get too close. She quickly took her phone out and took a selfie.
However, one was not enough. She got closer—so close their bodies were almost touching. She held up a peace sign and snapped another picture.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
She alternated between different poses as she snapped over a dozen more photos.
Meanwhile, James was only concerned with eating.
He was famished after skipping breakfast.
After having taken so many photos, Xara was satisfied. With red cheeks, she said, “General Highsmith, thank you so much. You’re my idol, so I’m really excited to see you. I hope you don’t mind all the photos.”
“Haha, it’s alright…” Daniel laughed awkwardly.
“Danny… Are you not eating? If you aren’t, then leave.”
