What he is up to?
Zuriel's mansion was that the other side of the city
I couldn't help but notice how big the houses were, even in the dark. Nathan stopped the car in front of what is supposed to be Zuriel's mansion I saw large it on gates there, not only that, a team of security guards was standing there
Mr.Nathan quickly pulled out a card, I realized what it was and neared the car toward the gate and swipe the card in a small-attached box. The gates made a sound before opening.
Swiping the card again the door opened. As soon as I enter I forgot to take a breath. I knew my husband was rich but bloody hell I wasn't expecting this much of a lavish lifestyle. Everything in this house was so elegant, classy, and screaming money
The huge mansion was designed as a solid rectangular concrete that stood in the middle of the vast estate.
In the back, I gasped when I found there is the river, and pools, garden, ponds, surrounding it making it look like a second world
I've always seen many beautiful houses in magazines, but they're nothing as compared to this mansion
Walls are of the pure white surround with glass walls
a bullet could not pass through it.
My eyes darted at the top of the mansion, and I noticed the helipad.
I kept looking at it, with my mouth opened
The moment when you realized that your husband is mega-rich.
I've never even my whole life ever thought, the one day I will see the mansion which has an airport in it
Who I'm joking, he is Zuriel Richardson
I was standing in the Living room, which is five times bigger than my whole mansion, I wonder, how big rooms were in his mansion
Suddenly, a middle-aged lady comes in front of me and bowed down little
in front of me
"Good evening ma'am, I'm Janice, I work here, and there are forty other maids here too, we live in the servant quarter, it's almost midnight, so they all might be sleeping," she said smiling, and I nodded at her, cheekily
I looked around at the beautiful modern house, I'd never seen such an amazing mansion before
Noticing my curiosity, Janice smiled and put my hand over my arm
"Come let me give you a tour of the mansion," she said, and I nodded
Following her
Have you ever wondered how Charlie must have felt when he stepped his foot inside the chocolate factory? Ask me. Do you know all the excitement you get when you feel like everything in your boss's house is made of pure gold? Yes, the feeling was mutual. I never understood the hype of people making their house look so... stunning.
Zuriel was one of those people. I really thought his house would be a total bachelor's pad, but I couldn't be more wrong. Yes, it had all the equipment you see in a single guy's house, but it was spotless. Despite its size, I couldn't help but notice how empty an-lonely it felt. The whole house was drowned in complete silence. Something I am not fond of.
We were currently on the first floor, and she led me inside a bedroom
It's very beautiful, the walls around are made up of large glass, with a queen-size bed in the middle, and a walk-in closet with TV in the middle, it's the definition of perfect pal
"Hope you'll like it, master told me to make a bedroom ready for you, this is your bedroom," she said
I looked at her, "my bedroom?" I asked with furrowed eyebrows
"Yes," she said and I nodded
A part of me was feeling so down it felt like my heart was shrinking, chewing my lip I trailed around the room and sat on the bed
it's not like I'm having any problem with that, but I thought we might live in the same room, I mean we're married now, and I know I sound so stupid
sometime before, I was behaving as I can't even breathe in the same room with him and hated him so much, but after that Lucas incident the way he was at my back the way he tore those pictures away and threw them on Lucas's face
it's really very, very different from his typical self, a tingling warmth in my limbs aroused when I remember that scene of our kiss how amazing his lips felt over mine
my eyes widened and I shook my head quickly
I'm overthinking relax Bri
*********
I looked around, and glanced at the door again, it was almost midnight, and he didn't come home yet
I looked at the "thank you card", which I made for him, I just don't know yet, how to say thank you to him properly, I mean I think that I would not look good if I will empty-handed apologize to him, so I've decided to make a sorry card for him, with a bunch of five yellow roses
Yellow roses denote friendship, I know we both started off with wrong way, and I really misunderstood him as a bad person, but I've got to know at our wedding that he's not that bad
He saved me from Lucas, more importantly, he saved my honor
I didn't know what to give him, because he already has everything
I'm behaving like a typical clingy wife?
No, no I quickly shook my head and took the vogue magazine, on the table turning its pages
But again, I looked up and again glanced at the door
Where are you Zuriel
I just wanted to thank him, for backing me when that Lucas was accusing me
Suddenly, I felt noise from the door,
It's Zuriel
He's indifferent clothes, he was in another suit not in our wedding suit
Where did he even change his clothes
"Why do you care, " Zuriel said to me while sitting on the couch taking out his laptop
I looked at him, raising my eyebrows
"W...what," I asked him
He shook his head and turned towards his laptop continuing his work
I never said anything to him then how he got to know what I was thinking
Can he read the minds too
I shifted, and cleared my throat,
"Thank you, Zuriel," I said keeping giving that card I don't of him
He looked at the card, tilting his head backward
"I... it's for you," I smiled little gesturing towards the "thank you card," I made for him
Like as I am, I'm never involved or let anyone e to me before, so I just don't know how to deal with people in different situations
But I've always seen my classmates in high school making thank you cards if they wanted to show their gratitude to someone, so I also did the same
"For me," he raised his eyebrows and I nodded as my eyes lit when he looked at thank you card, I make for him
"No need of that," he muttered before looking back again on his laptop
My chest squeezed and even my stomach hurts seeing his behavior towards me
I looked down, frowning
Why can't he can be a little nice to me
"My mom always taught me to respect other girls, that's why I was with you, even after knowing that you're a selfish manipulative gold digger, that's the reason I backed you when that ex-boyfriend of yours was accusing you and I don't care if that is true or not, so don't just flatter yourself, I didn't do it for you, I did it because my mom was brought me up in that way that never disrespects any girl, nor bear it if someone else does, if there was someone else also at your place, then I would have done the same, you're no special," he spoke while typing something on his laptop, he didn't even glance at me once
I ignored the churning in my stomach, I quickly stand up, but before I can make out, I was freeze when his voice makes me stop
"By the way, there is a surprise waiting for you, at your office," he smirked, and I turned around finally shut down his laptop and approach me
My breathing quickened when he comes towards me, I swallowed my mouth felt so dry, even I also don't know why, my body was reacting like this, in front of him.
"Get, ready for surprise baby, you will hate it," he whispered in my ear, I felt my chest become tightened making me breathless.
