nAfter returning from the village, Lucas immediately took Ellena back to his parents' house.

nArriving at Albert Fidell's residence, they were warmly welcomed by Lucas' parents. In fact, some of the servants in the house were already lined up wearing the same clothes and ready to welcome them.

nThe spacious and well-maintained yard of the house is clearly visible from the beautiful and cool conditions. In fact, there was hardly any trash strewn around it, though only the remnants of dry leaves had fallen accidentally.

nYes, naturally. There were so many maids working in this house, that Ellena didn't have time to count one by one those who were standing in front of her, welcoming her with Lucas.

nEllena and Lucas walked through the line, towards their parents who were already standing waiting at the end of the line.

nWithout waiting for orders, Ellena immediately greeted Lucas' parents who had been smiling broadly.

n

"How was your first night, was it fun?

" The first question asked by Veronica, Lucas' mother, made Ellena momentarily stunned and couldn't answer.

n

"Mommy, don't make my wife nervous like that,

" Lucas said in response.

"The wedding party was very tiring, how could we do the first night in such conditions,

" he explained later.

n

"So-

"

n

"Never mind, Vero, don't pressure them with your question. Isn't there still plenty of time for them to spend their honeymoon?

" cut Albert reminded his wife.

n

"Okay, as soon as I can buy them a honeymoon ticket abroad, so we can have grandchildren soon,

" said Veronica which suddenly made Ellena rounded.

n

"Come in!

" Veronica seemed to embrace Ellena, bringing her into the house.

n

"O-okay, Ma'am,

" said Ellena nervously.

n

"Don't be so stiff. You're now my daughter-in-law, so call me Mommy, just like Lucas calls me!

" Veronica said as she walked side by side with her daughter-in-law.

n

"O-okay, Mom,

" replied Ellena.

nEllena was slightly flabbergasted, when she had just set foot inside the house. The room is dominated by white, as well as some luxurious furniture that adorns every corner. gives the impression of a bright and comfortable atmosphere. It's really amazing. It felt like she didn't deserve to set foot in a house that looked like a palace.

n

"I'll show you your room,

" Veronica said, then led Ellena to the 2nd floor.

nVeronica immediately took Ellena to a very spacious room with all the luxurious furniture in it. There was a king size bed, as well as some photos of Lucas hanging on the wall and on the nightstand. It was certain that it was Lucas' room, and tonight she would sleep there with the owner of the room.

n

"This is the room Lucas used to live in. And tonight you will sleep here.

"

nBefore Ellena could end her daydream, Veronica had already told the woman that she was going to sleep with Lucas. Ah, that really made Ellena's hairs goosebumps for a moment.

n

"Thanks, Mami,

" Ellena whispered, forcing a smile.

nLucas' mother was so kind to Ellena. Maybe because she doesn't know Ellena's real background yet. I don't know if she had known everything, she could have changed his attitude to hate that woman, or even felt disgusted to have a poor daughter-in-law like Ellena.

n

"Okay, you should just rest first,

" said Veronica while smiling at Ellena.

n

"Thanks, Mami,

" said Ellena in a tone that still looked awkward.

nVeronica gave a smile, then said goodbye to Ellena. She immediately left, leaving Ellena alone in the room. Meanwhile, Lucas is still on the 1st floor with his father. They seemed to be talking about something I don't know what it was.

n

"Excuse me, Miss.

"

nJust as Ellena was about to step foot into the room deeper, suddenly a strange voice made her gasp. She immediately turned towards the source of the voice. There was a waiter standing in front of the room carrying two suitcases.

nEllena immediately smiled kindly at the maid.

"You just keep the suitcase near the cupboard, let me tidy it up later,

" asked Ellena, who already understood the maid's arrival into the room.

n

"Okay, Miss,

" said the maid with a slight bow, being polite.

nShe immediately pulled the two suitcases, then put them next to the wardrobe according to Ellena's orders. Having finished with her task, she immediately said goodbye to Ellena and left the room.

nEllena circled the room, observing every object that was there. There were several photos of Lucas, as well as a photo of the boy that was displayed there. It looks like it's a photo of Lucas when he was a kid. Every now and then Ellena smiled looking at the photos. Lucas has had a handsome face since childhood, it's only natural that now he looks more handsome and dashing, he thought.

nWhen Ellena was just about to take one of the photos, suddenly there was the sound of footsteps stepping into the room.

nEllena immediately gave up her intention, then faced the bedroom door which was still wide open. She seemed to have recognized the pounding sound very well.

nAt the same time, Lucas was standing in the doorway, casting a horrified look at him.

n

"Sir,

" Elena whispered, lowering her head.

nWithout responding, Lucas went straight in, then closed the bedroom door, causing Ellena to jump a little.

n

"Are you surprised?

" Lucas asked as he noticed Ellena who had jumped slightly.

n

"N-no, Sir,

" answered Ellena nervously.

nLucas smiled showing his sensual style, then he slowly walked over to Ellena who was standing near a large wardrobe at that time.

nInstantly Ellena's body lit up at the look on Lucas' expression at that time, who didn't want to take her eyes off his face. Only negative thoughts at that time filled her head. Ellena trembled in fear, as Lucas drew closer to her.

nEllena backed away slowly, trying to avoid Lucas. In fact, she didn't intend to take her focus away from Lucas' body that was getting closer and closer to him.

n

"Sir, what are you going to do?

" asked Ellena with slightly trembling lips. However, Lucas did not respond to his question. The man continued to approach without caring.

nIn fact, Ellena's current expression made Lucas grin even more happily and reassuringly. I don't know what was in her mind at that time.

nLucas looked into Ellena's face, which made the woman tremble with fear. I don't know what he will do to her. Even though Lucas hadn't done anything at the hotel before, it still made Ellena worried this time. She wouldn't be willing if Lucas dared to touch her, even if it was just a hair.

nEllena continued to step back. However, her steps suddenly stopped, when her back hit the cupboard and was stuck there. While Lucas was getting closer. It seemed that Ellena was no longer able to avoid the man. I don't know what he should do now.

n

"S-Sir.....

"
