Arguing

"M-my heart is not ready…"

"Stop speaking like a young maiden. You are coming with me. End of the discussion."

For the first time in his life, Rewen saw his mother as some merciless demon. Her face was stone cold and showed no compromise. 

When he arrived here, he saw his mother preparing to go somewhere. He asked out of curiosity. His mother caught his hand and told him that she was going to visit the Baron of Darkhood.

"Eh? Why visit the Baron?"

"You will be surprised to know that the Baron has a really pretty granddaughter."

"Is that so?" At this time, Rewen was still unaware as to why his mother would make friends with a young woman. 'Maybe she is just trying to get back her lost youth.'

"Yes, she's the perfect wife material." But the next statement made him freeze.

"Sam, you are so lucky!" He tried to deny reality and congratulated Sam who was next to his mother.
