After they got off from the car, Roberto then walk in front. There were also countless maids and guards greeted them.

Welcome to your new home, Young Master Matteo. Please follow me.

In that time, please take a rest in your room. The maid will help you cleaning and prepare you a dinner too.

Matteo Serafini
Can you please tell me, why should I be here...?
Roberto Mancini

Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
Did your mother not told you entirely?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
She told me I can't say no to whatever you say. Because Your Majesty is a cruel person
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
...
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
Nobody ever dared enough to call The Majesty that way.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
I can't explain much. But I can tell you that you are going to be married to The Majesty.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
...? What...?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
Why should I...?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
I'm still in school... And I'm a guy. That is not possible in many ways.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
It is not my authority to explain that far to you.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
I'm sure The Majesty will be glad to answer your questions if you ask him at a right time, right situation.

Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
I will come to get you if The Majesty is arrived.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
For now I will excuse myself. Please take a good rest.
After Roberto left, Matteo sighed tiredly. He sat down on the edge of the bed.
Half of his mind still couldn't believe this kind of thing could happen. Plus, now he is separated very far from his mother.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
Maybe...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
Maybe I will just talk to The Majesty.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
He must have a more rational reason for picking a random guy to get married with.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
[sigh] I believe everything will be settled soon...
A few minutes later, several maids brought dinner to Matteo's room.
One of them is a very old maid. She was still standing there even though the other maids had left first.
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
Greetings, young man.
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
My name is Galina. I am the head of the maid for this mansion.
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
I already served The Guillermo for almost 40 years now.
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
It is very honoured for me to see the bride of Your Majesty in person before the marriage.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
I-I'm Matteo...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
Wait... its actually real?
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
What is it, Young Master?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
The... the marriage. Am I really going to get married with some strangers I don't even know?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
Can I talk with The Majesty now? Is he already home?
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
...
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
Your Majesty already here. But he is still in the living room with Secretary Mancini.
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
Do you wish to call him?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
[hesitated] No...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
He... he will come here eventually... right?
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
Yes.
Aunt Galina
Aunt Galina
I will help preparing your bath and a change of clothes.
After that, Matteo cleaned himself up and changed into the clothes that Aunt Galina had prepared.
He was so surprised when suddenly Roberto walked in. Aunt Galina then asked permission to leave because her job was done.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
The Majesty is here.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
He will make time to talk with you before going to bed.
Roberto Mancini
Roberto Mancini
Now please excuse me.
Before Matteo could say anything, a man taller than Roberto with a burly posture, had already stepped in. Roberto then left the room.
Matteo's eyes widened in shock when he saw the man.
His shirt was full of blood and he is bleeding at several points of his body.
Matteo immediately jogged closer to the man; his gaze turned worried.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
Oh my God...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
S-Sir... there's so much blood on your body!
Laurent Guillermo

Laurent Guillermo
[staring at Matteo, expressionless]
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
[looking around, panicking]
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
W-we should stop the bleeding... or you will get an infection...
Matteo was just about to step away to look for the wound medicine in the drawer. But his hand was grabbed.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
...?
Laurent Guillermo
Laurent Guillermo
Your name.
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini

This is not my blood.

It's somebody's.

Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
I... I want to know why did you pick a random guy to get married with.
Laurent Guillermo
Laurent Guillermo
And who is that random guy?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
M-me...?

[tilting head] I'm not picking you randomly.

My head is only full of authority.
Laurent Guillermo

Marriage is the only way for me to get into a full access of that said authority, you get me?
Laurent Guillermo

I don't really mind if it is a man or a woman who will stands with me at the church.

Laurent Guillermo
Laurent Guillermo
Is that all of your question?
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
What if...
Matteo Serafini
Matteo Serafini
What if I don't want to be the part of your plan...?
