Chapter 27: Complex Desires

“Lately, you’ve been too busy to spend time with us…” a woman complained in a sweet voice as her eyes sought Prince Florian’s attention.

“A prince has his duties to attend to…” Florian replied with a charming smile.

“Then you must be tired. Please let us entertain you, Prince Florian…” another woman suggested before she smiled beautifully.

“Seeing all of your beautiful smiles melts all my troubles away,” Florian said before he started to laugh cheerfully.

The prince pulled one of the ladies close to him to kiss her cheek before he turned to do the same to another.

“Florian…” Darius called his brother’s name coldly.

The noisy atmosphere died down immediately when Florian and the women realized Darius was watching them.

“Oh…my cold brother is here. What do you want, Darius?” Florian asked without much interest.

“There’s a meeting with the minister of international trade right after this. Please be on time,” Darius reminded his younger brother sternly.
