Before Alexander could say anything, Fenhua whispered to him, "Father," and he recalled the rule. "Farewell, Miss Beatrice," Alexander said as he leaned closer and whispered in her ear for only her to hear, "You will be mine sooner or later, my lady," he murmured as he walked away. Fenhua also departed with an apologetic grin. Beatrice lingered behind, bewildered by what had just occurred the prince would return for her, but why? She was content, but she knew what would happen if she agreed. Alexander was delighted to see her in that stunned state he loved how she stood against him, so confident and brave, he gave her one last glance before they parted ways. The two gentlemen were returning to their enchanted mansion. They approached the royal gate and the announcer made their presence known
The men entered the royal gate, and the locals' eyes widened in surprise; some gasped as if it were their last breath, while others gathered in groups and began to gossip, their gaze fixed on Alexander. Fenhua noticed their unusual behaviour because it was all directed at Alexander, and when he turned to face him, his eyes widened as well. On the palace grounds, this moran still wore the African shirt. Fenhua called him and informed him about the shirt before he entered the royal palace. " Brother your shirt" he whispered under his breath.
Alexander looked down at his chest and realised he had forgotten about that. "Thank you, Fen," he said. He quickly hid the shirt after removing it, showing off his gorgeous, broad, and bulky chest. They entered the palace, Alexander had just fulfilled every maid's fantasy. Their eyes were glued to his bare chest, and how they yearned to kiss, embrace, and make love to it. Some stood in awe, while others licked their lips seductively, all in an effort to capture his attention. When he flexed his biceps he sent them soaring to a new level of ecstasy. Alexander loved that he had this effect on them. So
why did she not seem to be affected? What made her decline his offer? Did she know the kind of effect he had on women?
They proceeded to their father's study. After a low "come in," they were seated on the sofa. The king didn't notice their presence because his eyes were fixed on some documents, but when he looked up, his eyes widened in shock. The King simply desired to live a stress-free life, but his sons would not allow it. "Father," the princes greeted in unison as he rushed over to Alexander. "What happened son, are you all right?" Should I summon the Royal Physician for you? He worriedly inquired, . "That won't be necessary," Alexander replied, he then hurried over to Fenhua and inspected his body for any injuries. The relationship between Fenhua and the king was sincere, He loved him as much as he loved Alexander.
He adored him with every fibre of his being they were his pride and joy. "And how about you, Fen, are you okay?" He stroked his cheek. "I'm perfect, it's just that my brother here felt the need to hunt without his shirt", he chuckled, the King sighed and took his seat across from them. "Oh father, you're acting like Mother now," Alexander mocked, "and if that makes me your mother, so be it I have no problem being or acting like she does, and I apologise if I care too much for my reckless son".
Oh, good lord Alexander, you had to open your big mouth and mock father, and now poor prince Fenhua would have to sit there and listen to their father lecture them about his prides and joys.

They headed back to their rooms, Alexanders bedroom was it was majestic and enormous, it had a king-sized bed accompanied with white curtains and crimson red comforter with gigantic pillows. Blood red curtains to match, an oak wood flooring, hybrid chandelier's a little living room with classic sofas and a glass coffee table by the side. After a quick bath Alexander's door swung open Jade Boston abruptly walked in. She was dressed in a beige gown, some light make up and hair laid loose. "Your Highness I have come with a complaint," she said making herself comfortable on his bed".
"Have you forgotten your manners miss Boston, may I ask what it is?" he asked as he walked towards the bed, dressed in a black silk robe "what had happened during the hunt that made you decide to come on palace grounds bare? all the maids are talking about it, it was quite disgraceful your Highness." she said in anger.
"Dearest Jade may I remind you that you are neither my companion nor my lover, I suggest you keep your jealousy under control. Now depart form here" he spoke his voice icy as usual with her.
She swung the door open violently, stormed out and bumped into Li Min who was dressed in a sky blue hanfu dress, she nodded and then left. Alexander's back was facing her when she posed a question "What have you done to her?".
"I simply told her the truth"
"You, young people always creating drama somewhere, let me not be diverted from the purpose to which I have come to pay you a visit," she said her voice solemn. Alexander knew that when she spoke with this tone it was never a good sign, he turned to face her and when he did all the colour drained from his face as he saw what she held in her hand...
It was the shirt he had disposed of earlier
