"Minister Zander King, it is so nice to see you here! So this explains why you always refused to go out with us... You certainly have your preference!" Prince Anders is the first one to break the ice and awkward atmosphere.

"We did not know that Minister Zander King likes to visit places like this. If you only told us before that you like exciting places like this, we should have brought you here instead..." Prince Andrew supported his brother's statement.

Zander was so shocked and speechless for a moment that he was not able to immediately respond.

"It is not what you think..." Zander wants to explain but how can he explain without exposing his wife's weird preference?!!

"Ahem! Young Masters, please forgive this humble one for interrupting but it is I, who forced my best friend, Zander, to accompany me here..." Beatrix defended her husband while doing her best to sound like a man and fool the two princes into believing that she did not know them.

"And who are you?" Prince Anders curiously asked.

"I am Brix Lemur, Zander's best friend!" She introduced herself borrowing the identity of her husband's best friend who grew up with him in the streets and study with him under the same master.

"Oh! So you are Brix Lemur, Minister Zander King's best friend. I have not seen you before but anyway, I am Prince Anders Sky and this is my twin brother, Prince Andrew Sky. We are also close with your best friend..." Prince Anders introduced himself and his twin brother.

"It is so nice to meet you, Your Highness Prince Anders and Your Highness Prince Andrew! Please excuse us but we are about to go when you arrived... Enjoy your night!" Beatrix told them and gave a Let us go now!' look at her husband then prepared to leave immediately but they were stopped by Prince Andrew's words.

"Why leave so early? Since you are already here, why don't you join us and enjoy the rest of the evening with us? It will be my treat and I do not take no for an answer..." Prince Andrew said it in a very overbearing and commanding tone.

It made Beatrix and Zander's steps halt! The way he said it made all the hairs on their body stand on end! It sounds so calm, yet threatening at the same time!

This insufferable jerk! Scoundrel! Scumbag! Beatrix, relax... Inhale... Exhale...

Beatrix thought angrily at that time preventing herself from grinding her teeth. She turned around again and politely refused.

"Please forgive us, Your Highness Prince Andrew, but we have to go now. We still have so many things to do." Beatrix tried her best to act calmly.

"Zander King, your best friend is too arrogant and does not know the good from the bad..." Prince Andrew looked at Beatrix and ignored her statement then he coldly looked at Zander. "Do you also dare to refuse and ignore my invitation?"

Zander contemplated the situation. He could feel that there is something strange! He felt that there is something important that he is not aware of. He thought deeper and was scared by the idea!

Did they know it is my wife Beatrix who is with me now? Is that why they seem so persistent? But that is impossible! Beatrix's disguise is so good! If I did not see her wear it, I will not be able to tell it is her... No, no, no! I am just overthinking!!!

He finally gave Beatrix a 'Trust me' look before answering.

"This servant does not dare! Please forgive my best friend's response! He is just not used to other people's company. We are honored to join you..." Zander calmly replied and gave Beatrix a pleading look.

Beatrix exhaled, against her will, she was forced to join her two former husbands and her current husband in this extra weird and so awkward reunion!

It should be fine... How hard can it be?

She thought as she joined them inside a brothel's VIP room.

Prince Andrew ordered the manager to close the brothel for them. They ordered several delicious food and strong liquor to enjoy the night. In the beginning, they just randomly discussed some casual things about current events in the capital, in the countryside, and even on the borders while eating their dinner...

Zander King busily removed the head and shell of the shrimps and happily put it on the plate. When the small plate was already filled, he happily gave it to Brix (Beatrix) just like usual to the surprise of Prince Anders.

"Ow! When you said you are pretty close, I did not think too much of it. But now, you look like a pair of sweet lovers, my friend!" Prince Anders commented.

Beatrix unhappily gave Zander a killer look, warning him to act accordingly and not give away her disguise! Zander uncomfortably smiled and then explain...
