“Alexander, he left, Camille sighed, looking at her angry son who was still glaring in the direction Oliver had gone.
“I am
still telling you, Mother, they are not trustworthy, Alexander muttered bitterly, his jaw clenched with
frustration.
“Alright, now return to the main topic. I can’t wait for the results to come. By the way, when are they coming?” Camille asked, her excitement palpable.
“It’s coming in two days,” Alexander replied, his mood shifting as a hopeful smile spread across his face at the thought of finding his lost sister.
“That’s great, Alexander, Camille smiled, though hesitation glinted in her eyes. “I actually called you for something else,” she said calmly.
“What was it, Mother?” Alexander asked, furrowing his brow, his hands tucked into the pockets of his pants.
“Alexander, have you thought about marrying?” Camille asked, knowing her son didn’t like this question and always intentionally avoided discussing his marriage.
Mother! Alexander turned his back, avoiding looking into his mother’s eyes. He had told her so many times, and she knew it–that he didn’t like to discuss it anymore and he was not interested in marrying at the moment.
“You know I won’t get married until I find my lost sister and then I will hand her the whole estate and wealth that rightfully belongs to her. Only then will I think about settling down in my life,” he reasoned, his tone indifferent.
“Alexander, you know we don’t know how much longer it will take, but I can’t stay young forever. I want to see you settled and have children, son. For my sake, you have to consider the proposals of marriage sent by many noble families,” Camille insisted, her voice trembling with a mixture of concern and urgency.
That was the problem. Alexander didn’t want to marry because there was always a condition that his bride should be from a noble family.
“Mother, you know I won’t marry another woman but Chloé Martin. She is the love of my life and means everything to me,” Alexander declared with authority, his eyes blazing with determination.
“But Alexander, you can’t marry a cabaret dancer. She is not even from a noble family. The people of Monaco won’t accept her as their duchess, and even the royal council, including the king, will disapprove. You can even lose your title, Camille reminded him of the harsh consequences,
“I don’t care about titles or what others think. I want to be with her, Alexander declared stubbornly, his jaw set–in defiance,
Camille sighed, her heart heavy with worry. The men in her life were foolish when it came to choosing women who were worthy of their love. She knew Chloe was a gold digger, and was likely interested in Alexander’s wealth and status, not just his love. But blind in love, Alexander couldn’t see it.
“Then be prepared to relinquish your title as Duke of Monaco and let your cousin Oliver take over,” Camille suggested gently, concern shadowing her eyes. She knew it was a sensitive nerve for Alexander.

“I can’t let that fool take over my inheritance and tarnish the Montecarlo family reputation,” he muttered. through clenched teeth, his voice edged with determination.
“Then marry a noble woman.” Camille suggested, her brow furrowing as she noticed the defiant glint in Alexander’s eyes and saw his lips parting to protest. Quickly, she added, “If you want, you can have Chloé by
your side as your mistress. After all, men in elite families are known to have many mistresses, but their wives should be from noble families to continue their legacy and provide heirs,” she reasoned, hoping to find a compromise.
Alexander looked at his mother with a mix of frustration and resignation. The conflict between his love for Chloé and his family’s expectations was evident in his expression.
