Kapitel 6: Chapter 6

Elsa knew he was right, not realizing that her thoughts diverted her actually, the clerk, otherwise known as the justice of the peace, would not doubt the authenticity of the couple's willingness, they would presume the hesitation as nervousness.

"well, "Elsa gave in, feeling she was wrong in the first place and was not willing to argue with him her lovely angry face amused Raymond. "you can't do that next time. you know, you were taking advantage of me," Elsa warned him solemnly.

looking at her delicate red lips when she spoke, he grinning eyes turned into profound affection. he didn't know why this girl could light the fire burning deep inside his body. his list for her was burning like a volcano ready to exploded

he held her hand and kept a certain distance between them, Incase he couldn't control himself and did something wrong again, that frightened her. after getting into the car, Elsa was absentminded, not noticing where they were going. until she saw that the view outside the car was become more and more strange, she asked him in panic. "where are we going?".

"going home," he said. she looked worried, "but my home isn't this e." we are going to our home, Raymond turned to look at Elsa. she was over whelmed by his deep dark eyes. "it's fake marriage, why do we have to live together?" she was getting nervous.

Raymond could see this in her face and replied, "if we don't live together, how would my family believe that it's real marriage?" this wasn't the agreement, she thought to herself. "I still share the rent, what if she can't find another roommate?" I will pay the rent until she doesn't want to live there anymore if need be. "his eyes focused on hers. " do not have any other questions?"

for a moment, she was speechless and felt as if she had fallen into a pit well, he's rich, he could do anything. Raymond quickly drove into his villa and stopped in the garden of one of the most luxurious, elegant, and spacious vacation homes, that she had ever seen. it was a mansion.

as soon as Elsa got out of the car, she was shocked to find the garden was so big that it was almost as big as a small park. she could not afford to rent a apartment alone. she had to share it with others. he not only had a luxurious country Vacation home but also wealthy enough to buy a park size garden. how wealthy was he?

Raymond held her hand while walking in. she was hesitant at first. his thin lips let out a smile when they entered the house, a middle-aged man in his forties welcomed them and greeted them respectively, "welcome home Mr and Mrs Yates.

Elsa was still not used to being called Mrs Yates. Raymond turned around and introduced the man, "this in our butler Mr. Sampson." Elsa respond friendly. "good evening, Mr. Sampson," Mr. Sampson replied and then turned around, pointing to the middle aged women behind him. "Mr Yates, this is carol and Carey. They are hired especially for Mrs Yates. carol is responsible for the housekeeping, and Carey is responsible for the kitchen.

"what do you think?" Raymond leaned in, asking Elsa. Elsa recalled that Mr Bates told her that Raymond hated having any contact with women. she guessed there was no women in this house before now. Raymond probably did this for her so that she would feel more comfortable. suddenly she felt something softening in her heart.

there were times when he seemed hard to approach, but unexpectedly he was considerate and careful. then she let out a broad smile. "good" although he didn't quite understand what turned her mood around, he still moved by her radiant, smiling face, "Mr Sampson please show Mrs Yates around the house."

with a gentle man's salute, Mr Sampson raised his right hand and said he Elsa, " Mrs Yates, please." the Yates family nobility has been passed on for hundred of years. the butler had a British accent, and all the other servants also behave in English style. Elsa was flattered and quickly followed him.

Raymond went directly to the study on the second floor. Mr Bates was already waiting for him inside. watching him as he came in, Mr Bates stood beside the door and greeted him with respect. "Mr Yates, how's it going?" he asked, sounding critical. coming back to work, he was still the old Raymond cold, cruel and reserved.

"several directors on the board have been questioning your sexual orientation and think that you can't be the heir. I have already taken notes, and all of them listed asking observation. "Mr Bates hesitated for a moment, but then asked carefully. "Mr Yates, did you inform your mom about your marriage?" no, keep it a secret for the time being, "Raymond answered firmly. Mr Bates knew that there was no need to say anymore.

Carey had been told what Raymond like and dislike, but she didn't know the preference of Elsa. Raymond sits opposite to Elsa, resting his chin on his folded hands and was staring at her. Elsa felt her face getting flush by his gaze and intended to divert his attention. "where are they?"

"they are in the dining room," Raymond answered Indifferently.

Raymond had an excellent dining etiquette. he didn't even make a sound when he drank the soup, and there was no oil on his lips. each movement was noble and elegant. she stole a glance at him from time to time, wondering why he was so handsome even when he was eating.

after dinner, carol came to tidy up the table. "don't make lettuce and carrots again. I would prefer broccoli, shrimp, and lobster." carol wrote it down as he said. Elsa was shocked. he was good at observation and memorizing. how did he know her like and dislike? it's just a deal marriage, why was he so considerate?

seeing she was in a trance, Raymond broke the silence with a fulfilling smile in his eyes, "hey, there's a party this afternoon. do you want to go with me? "what party?" ah replied. "some old friends of mine..." Raymond stated plainly. Elsa interrupted before he finish it. "no, I don't want to go."

she felt something was wrong, but couldn't figure it out. she had never been married before and had no idea how a Fake marriage should be. even so, with a little common sense, she knew he should be hide her from the public to protect his reputation. so, why did he want to take her to meet his friends?

Raymond didn't want to overwhelm her. "well, then, have a good rest at home this afternoon." then, he stood up and was about to back to his bedroom to change. Elsa stood up instantly. "I want to go back to my apartment this afternoon.

sense she was not willing to stay here, he wondered why. his gaze made Elsa panic again. "um, I just want to pick up some of my things." she quickly explained. he turned to walk over her. "no." halting in front of her, "you don't need to."

Elsa didn't understand why he said "you don't need to," until later on in the afternoon. Raymond had been gone for almost an hour. Elsa was to explain to Mr Sampson that she intend to go out, but the door ball interrupted her thoughts.
