Carl nodded his head at the servant and directly went towards his mother's study without having the breakfast.
Carl didn't get the chance to talk with his mother properly for few months already. The last time which his mother took the initiative to talk with him in a proper way like this was to discuss some school matters with him.
Since Carl's mother asked him to meet her at her study today unlike her usual nature, Carl guessed in his mind that she must be wanted to discuss some important matters with him. So, he decided to go to her study directly without having his breakfast.
After reaching his mother's study, Carl knocked on the door.
Carl's mother said "Come in"
Carl opened the door and entered the room.
Carl's mother was very busy while looking at a file in her hand and she didn't even raise her head to look at who has entered the room. But she casually asked "What is it?"
"Mother, it's me. Didn't you ask me to come to your study? Is there something important to discuss with me?" Carl said to his mother.
"Oh!! Carl!! I thought that it was someone else. I didn't expect you to come here so soon." Carl's mother said to Carl.
Carl remained silent without saying anything to his mother. He is used to be very silent around his parents in this way since his childhood. He isn't used to be so talkative around them.
Carl's mother put the file which was in her hand away and turned towards Carl's direction. Then, she said "I have something important to tell you."
Carl still remained motionless without uttering a single word.
Carl's mother also didn't care about Carl's attitude and continued to say what she wanted to say to him "I and your dad have arranged a marriage for you and you will engage with her first right after your high school ends. You both can decide later about when to have your wedding."
"Marriage?" This time Carl asked his mother with an emotionless voice.
"Yeah. You are 18 years old already and it is the perfect time for you to marry a girl. We have found the perfect girl for you. She is the perfect person to stand beside you, Carl Solveig from the Solveig family. " Carl's mother said to Carl.
After saying that, Carl's mother looked at Carl's face and she saw her son's usual neutral expression on his face. She was not surprised by it even a little bit.
Carl's mother asked from Carl "Aren't you even curious about this girl even a little bit?"
Carl kept his silence as he was doing since earlier.
Carl's mother laughed out loudly at her son's behaviour and said " I have raised my son very well. I'm sure that one day you will become a very successful person as me and your father. May be more than us. I'm proud of you my son. "
"But son, how could you not even be curious about the girl who you will marry in a two months? "
"Anyway, even if you don't want to know about that girl, you still need to try to get even a little bit close with her. I heard that she likes you so much. She is attending the same school as you and both of you are in the same year at the high school school too." Carl's mother continued to say.
Then, she asked Carl " Do you know a girl called Anna Arne?"
Carl said "No, how could I suppose to know about just any girl at the school?"
Carl's mother smiled and said "But now you know and you need to atleast recognize your future wife's appearance. So, try to atleast get along with her and try to make her like to engage with you too."
"She is the perfect match for you and she is from the Arne family. Arne family is only second to us in this whole city. So, if it isn't her, I don't think that there is another matching girl for you in this whole city. So, don't miss a chance to be with her." Carl's mother continued to say.
Carl nodded his head at mother and asked her " Is that all? Can I go now?"
His mother nodded her head at Carl and Carl directly went out of his mother's study without a second of delay.
Carl's mother looked at her son's behaviour with a very proud expression on her face.
Her son isn't easily ready to open his heart to anyone at all. He isn't even opening his heart for his own parents too. But she is very pleased with his son's behaviour. Because she is the one who took the initiative to teach her son to keep a distance from everyone else to become a very successful businessman in the future.
She could see a very successful person through her son everytime when she sees her.
She is proud of herself to raise a son who is very excellent in this way.

"Rose, what are you searching for so hardly in this way?" Ava who woke up from her sleep asked Zenaida who was searching for something in her school bag while turning her bag upside down.
"Ava, I have prepared your breakfast. You can go and have it. I will come there after I found what I'm searching for" Zenaida said without raising her head from her school bag.
Ava looked at her friend's anxious expression on her face and asked again "Did you lose something important?"
Zenaida put away her school bag after searching for Anna's letter in there for few rounds already.
She wasn't in the right mind to hear what Ava was saying to her because she seems to have lost the Anna's letter.
Zenaida has completely forgotten about the matter of the Anna's letter until Anna called and asked about her letter in this morning. Right after, Zenaida hung up the call with Anna, she started to search for the Anna's letter everywhere in the house.
