So he used Albena as a convenient means to remove this lingering them,
By choosing exile over execution and sparing the lives of the Osborne family, he managed to keep Michol fly in check

He brushed the dust from his robe with a wry, sell deprecating smile. “Mother,ve made up my mind. Aber Athena and hold our shall depart for my land. You will accompany us. ”
Alexandra bolted to her feet, her face a mask of panic. “No, that won’t do! You wield sech immense power now. How could you possibly everything here for some remote, desolate land p>

Alexandra’s face went from pale to ghostly white. Her eyes darted frantically, utterly at a loss for words
She had never even considered leaving for the fiefdom. The remote and barren territory Xander had could never compare to the luxures of Pidence City.
But once Xander had truly made up his mind, she could not do anything about it.
Xander’s voice turned icy as he delivered his final ultimatum to Alexandra “Kendra cannot remain in the Xander Manor Mother, if you persist in this you’ll not only harm her but also endanger me. I have never once considered marrying hex”
With that, he turned on his heel and strode out.

Alexandra’s lips curved into a frosty smile. “She’s just an obstacle in our way. When the time comes to remove her, I won’t hesitate
But for now, the priority was to make Xander accept Kendra. Otherwise, even with Athena out of the picture, hell would choo
Alexandra’s mind was made up. Producing a small bottle from her sleeve, she emptied its contents into the soup brought by the mad
Alexandra called out, “Attendant p>
Her trusted matron appeared instantly before her
She commanded with a dark expression, “Take this soup to Xander at once!
The matron looked at Alexandra in astonishment. If my eyes aren’t deceiving me, she’s giving Prince Xander Delusion Powder, she thought
This drug was completely colorless and tasteless. Even the most skilled warrior wouldn’t notice a thing.
Once ingested, it would cause one to lose their senses, becoming delirious with desire and lost in vivid illusions of their beloved
The servant knew that Alexandra was forcing Xander to sleep with Kendra.
