Seeing her son, before she could get too close the musky smell in the room hit her strongly.
It was so strong that it made her feel sick.
"Honey, what have you been doing these past two days? Why does your room smell so bad?" she said while fanning her nose.
"Didn't you call any of the maids to help you clean your room?" she added, walking closer and sniffing around him.
"You haven't even showered for the past two days! Hurry up and take a shower first before you go out to meet some guests," she said with a smile.
Hearing that there were guests, he nodded in reply.
As for the shower it was in another room, and since he was under house arrest, leaving his room would have made his father angry, so of course he hadn't showered.
Even though he was very sticky, he wasn't really bothered by it.
Having lived like a beggar for a long time, it had already become normal to him.
But of course, he knew he couldn't live like that in this life.
So after leaving his room and taking a shower, there was a knock at the door.
"Umm… Young Master… do you need help taking a bath?" a sweet and timid voice asked from outside.
Alexander flinched for a moment, and when he realized it was Zemina, he coughed to hide his embarrassment.
After all, who in the world would ask something like that?
But then he remembered that he was a noble, and in this strange world with magic so maybe it was normal.
"Zemina, it's fine. I can manage on my own, just bring me a clean pair of clothes and a towel," he said.
"Okay~" came the reply, and Zemina darted off with a red face.
She greeted Madam before entering Alexander's room and bringing him some fresh clothes.
After he finished bathing, he thanked her and put on the fresh clothes before going to meet his mother.
While walking down the corridor, he was still a little curious about who the guest his mother had mentioned could be.
"Hehe, you'll find out soon. Hurry up and walk faster," she said.
After that, they arrived at the room.
They entered a wide living room, where two people were sitting at a huge table.
As the door opened, Ragnar who had been waiting for them, looked up with a cold expression.
Seeing her husband's stern look, Alexandria glared at him.
"Honey can you at least show your soft side instead of always being so cold? Aren't you afraid of scaring your future daughter-in-law away?"
Hearing this, Ragnar wanted to retort but when he saw that his son was present, he swallowed his words wanting Alexander to hear it directly from the woman's mouth.
After entering, Alexander greeted his father first.
Then, as he got a clear view of the girl sitting across the table right beside of the cold and aloof woman, he was stunned as memories flashing in his mind for a moment.
Her name was Lavia Arindel, his fiancée.
When they were young, to strengthen the bond between their families, since his grandfather was considered the savior of the Arindel family the two had been betrothed from a young age.
So when they were kids, Alexander had always treated her like a princess.
Not only was his future wife cute and adorable, she was also strikingly beautiful.
To the past Alexander, it had seemed like a beautiful thing.
But to the new Alexander, seeing the memory of how that bastard had still acted like a simp, chasing her nonstop, showering her with wealth, resources, and everything.
He can clearly see, that she was just treating him as an insect, he wasn't just ignored at times, he had even been humiliated in the plaza just a year ago by this very woman.
For the past Alexander, he had thought that she was just acting spoiled, so he had showered her with treasures, which made his heart ache.
Considering all the treasures he had given in the past, they were already worth tens of millions.
"This bastard is really a fucking idiot. Can't you even see the signs that you've been tricked for so long?" he muttered, cursing him a few times as he calmed down and turned his attention to the girl.
Her long golden hair flowed freely down her back like soft silk, her face was naturally beautiful even without any adornment, with clear skin and bright eyes that gave her a proud and distant look.
Her figure was full and well-shaped, like it had been carefully carved, big chest, long legs, and a perky butt which is out balance.
Clearly a graceful yet eye-catching presence.
Compared to Zemina, if you measure it by number, Zemina would be 9.5 but this finacee of hers would be 10.
She was not only graceful and elegant, she was truly beautiful beyond words.
No wonder that bastard had treated her like a princess.
With a face like that, she deserved to be treated like a princess.
But the new Alexander only glanced at her once before turning his attention to the next lady.
He was no longer a simp, and he already hated this girl from the core.
If he could break the engagement and leave this unappreciative girl behind, he would have wished for that more than anything.
Next to her was a woman with flowing white hair, beautiful, but cold and aloof.
She wore flowing white robes that made her look like an immortal.
When he noticed the brat staring at her, her eyes showed nothing but coldness, even toward this ugly, fat boy looking her way.
Then, as Alexander continued to observe the woman, a heavy pressure descended upon him.
It was so intense that he felt his bones might give in, or in the worst case, snap completely.
Then something seemed to protect him, as a powerful energy pushed back the pressure.
A cold voice reverberated through the room.
"You're in my turf, woman. If you do that again, I will make sure you will not leave here uninjured," he said glaring at her coldly.
The two stood in a tense standoff. Alexander trembling legs had finally regained their strength.
That very woman then looked at the arrogant man and a sudden urge to strike and cripple him surfaces.
"So the rumors are true. This man is really protective when it comes to his fimaly. Just because he's a noble, he dares to act like this in front of me?" Her eyes blazed with anger, ready to stand up and fight to the death.
But a hand pulled at her sleeve. There, Lavia gave her a look of pleading, which made the woman snort.
She would step back this one time, but if this man dared to act the same way again, she would not let it slide next time.
Seeing her master's gaze and understanding what she was trying to imply, she nodded slightly.
Then Lavia looked at Alexander with undisguised disgust as she dropped a bombshell.
"Alexander, now that you together with both aunty and uncle are here, I want to cancel our marriage," she said, her face showing no emotion at all.
