The door opened, and Alexander walked in slowly. Everyone had their eyes on him, and the entire place fell into silence.
Alexander walked onto the stage calmly with a light smile on his face.
The reporters unleashed hard-hitting questions while the relentless stream of netizens' comments flashed on the big screen behind Alexander. The sheer magnitude of the terrible things being said became unbearable.
Alexander merely smiled and looked at everyone calmly. Subsequently, he stood up and enunciated word by word in all seriousness.
"I know everyone cares a lot about this. I'll explain everything today." Alexander licked his lips and took a deep breath. "That's right. I'm homosexual."
An uproar broke as soon as he said that. It was chaotic below the stage.
"I've actually been suppressing this for a long time." He chuckled. "I announced this today to give everyone, as well as myself, an explanation.
"I admit that I like men, but I don't think it's outrageous. Everyone is different when it comes to love. Even though I don't conform to what everyone does, I've never hurt anyone. I'm willing to tell you the truth today, accept your criticism, and face my truth…
"Also, I'd like to tell you that if I become the new king, I won't marry a queen. I'm different from regular people. It's only natural that I can't hurt a normal lady."
The reporters stopped breathing. The cameras were all focused on Alexander, afraid they would miss a word.
"Regarding the criticism and humiliation on the Internet…" He smiled. "Do you guys think I don't care?"
There were murmurs below the stage. The spectators were whispering as they discussed among themselves.
"I can accept that you express different opinions," he said in all seriousness. "However, personal attacks are not only lowly but also illegal. I support your right to speak, but please don't take my support as a weakness!
"Therefore, I won't hold back my right of recourse. Those people who humiliated me either apologize or wait for the summons from the court!"
