While Aurelia was still dazed, the mysterious person behind Alexander showed his true face.

Aurelia’s hand flew to her mouth as she nearly shrieked.

“Don’t be so surprised…” Alexander was trying to hold back his laugh as well.

How could she not be surprised, though?

When the two of them entered just now, Aurelia had thought that the one following Alexander was a… maid!

She scanned Neil from head to toe with widened eyes.

He was in a short-sleeved blouse and a long narrow skirt—a large-sized long narrow skirt. He was even wearing floral-embroidered flats and had a headscarf.

If one did not look carefully, one would think he was just a maid with a bigger build! This maid with a bigger build had walked in swaying hips just now!

Aurelia’s face was growing red. When she saw Neil’s glower, she could no longer hold herself back. A loud giggle escaped along with her tears.

“Shh!” Alexander shushed her and asked Neil to wear the headscarf properly. There were still guards and maids at the door, and nothing was secure.

Alexander strolled outside and waved a hand to dismiss those people. “I’m here to visit my aunt. Aurelia alone is enough here. You’re dismissed for now.”

“Your Highness, but…” The guards were wary.

“Why? Must I be supervised when I visit my aunt?”

The guards quickly shook their heads and were gone in the blink of an eye.

Now that the hall was safe, Neil pulled the headscarf off and breathed in relief. It was only then Aurelia dared to cackle loudly.

“And you’re still laughing!” Neil glared at her.
