That voice pierced through the haze in Alexander’s life like a light.
He did not remember how those people were begging from being beaten up, nor how humble they were when they
apologized to him.
All he remembered was that it was the first time in his life that he was being protected.
The newcomer was like a god that descended, giving him hope and warmth.
“Are you alright?” He helped him up. “My name’s Zephyr Hamerton. I’m the captain of the boxing team.”
“Zephyr…”
Alexander stared at the chiseled face blankly, revealing a smile that was even uglier than a cry.
…
Alexander suddenly opened his eyes and felt a chill on his back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe looked at the empty coffee cup before him and forced a smile.
He had drank so much coffee, so how did he still fall asleep? He even had the same dream…
Just when he was going to stand up to leave, his subordinate suddenly tapped on him. He stared at the door.
“What?” He looked over and was stunned.
He saw Victoria walking in slowly with a smile on her face.
She was shameless to be sitting on the couch across from him directly. She said she had yet to have dinner, so she
ordered herself a plate of white truffles.
Alexander looked at her and said nothing.
She paused and smirked, asking all men to leave them alone. They were the only ones left in the place.
They could say whatever they wanted now.
“You met Zephyr?”
Alexander was stunned and looked to the side.
Victoria smiled. She was sharp to notice that her foolish brother was missing someone again as soon as she walked
in.
“It’s sad!” She put a slice of white truffle into her mouth and chewed slowly. “You like him, but he has a wife and kid.
He doesn’t even remember you!”
“I never wanted him to remember me,” Alexander said slowly. “Moreover… the person you like doesn’t seem to like
you either!”
“You!” Victoria glared at him.
However, Alexander lowered his head and chuckled. He casually picked up the tiny waffle from the plate.
Victoria tossed the cutlery, and her stare gradually turned grim.
It was the cabinet election. The royalty was mainly responsible for the ceremony and the diplomacy. The king used

Aciatic and the foreign diplomatic envoys’ meet-and-greet.
He was the No.1 person among the royal family’s princes and princess.
The king could not be any more obvious with his intention.
Victoria clenched her fists, and her joints paled.
When she was 2 years old, her mother gave birth to this brother. It had been a difficult delivery. When he was finally
born, a nightmare that all doctors were afraid of happened—an amniotic fluid embolism.
Just like that, the siblings lost their mother, while the late prince lost his beloved wife.
Therefore, there was always something stuck in the late prince’s heart. Alexander was looking more and more like
a girl, which added to his disgust of him.
Victoria was so influenced by her father that she hated her brother as well.
The late prince died two years ago, and the current king brought the siblings to the palace and appointed them with
the ‘prince’ and ‘princess’ titles. From then on, she treated Alexander as the No. 1 obstacle to her taking over the
throne.
