Victoria woke up earlier than she expected. Her husband was still sleeping beside her with his arm over her stomach. She carefully turned around and kissed his forehead. She somehow doubted his love for her. But her anxiety rises whenever she thinks of him leaving her. He opened his eyes as he smiled. His bright blue eyes were smiling together with his lips and he kissed her lips. 

"I had a good time yesterday." He said and skimmed his hand to her chest. "You are so sexy, babe." 

"Really?" She sneered. 

"Uhuh," he checked the clock. "Shot, we have to get up now. We will leave early." 

"Okay," She sat up. 

"But we got a few more minutes in the shower?" He grinned. "Babe, I still want that lovemaking gift." 

"You'll have it anytime you want." She giggled and they kissed passionately. She pushed him. "I have to brush my teeth first." 

"I'm used to it." He grinned. 

"By the way," She put her robe on and pushed her hair back. She tied her robe and grinned. "I have something for you." She left the room as the Maid came with a silver tray and a small fancy box over it. "Thank you!" She took the box and rushed back to their room. She hid the box behind her. 

"You have a lot of surprises." He tilted his head as he propped his elbow on the pillows, flexing his beautiful sculpted body. She giggled and kneel in front of the bed and place the box over it. He grinned and squinted his eyes to her. "What is this?" He asked. 

"Well, I found something prettier than yesterday." 

He sat straight and opened it. He stared at the platinum automatic wristwatch. He took it out and checked the manly looking watching. He checked under it and there are golden letters engraved on it. 

I love you, forever and always. -J.V. 

She smiled at him as he bent down and kissed her top head. 

"This is beautiful, my love." 

Victoria got up and climbed on the bed. 

"Let's put it on." She took the watch. "So, right or left?" 

"Left," 

She put it on his left and adjusted it. She clapped her hands like a child. 

"It's beautiful." She told him. 

"Thank you." He hugged her and kept smacking her face with his lips. He removed the watch, put it on the box and he carried her to the bathroom. "Love, you make me excited suddenly." He grinned. 

 

Kaisley wasn't sure about her relationship with Caleb. But they had a video call last night at the party and even before they slept together. Her phone's battery was drained but after five minutes, she turned it on expecting Caleb to call. She kept the door open to her bathroom in the mansion that Prince Philip gave to her as her exclusive residence. She has a butler, five maids, a driver, and three bodyguards to serve her. She has never been in such a good life but at the moment, she's an Etrama. 

Her phone started ringing and she transferred it to her tablet quickly as she put her robe on and accepted Caleb's call. She smiled at him. He's still in bed and looks handsome and oozing. 

"Hey, Kai." He grinned. "Good morning, babe." 

"Hey," She smiled. "I will just finish my shower. Okay?" 

"I'll watch you." 

Kaisley focused it on the shower and she entered the shower and closed the glass door. She removed her robe and turned it on to continue soaping her body. She scrubbed her body while Caleb was singing. She was laughing and even peeked at the glass door at him. 

"Babe, what food do you suggest in Westeria?" He asked. "Or in Marduque?" 

"Food?" She asked. "Why?" 

"I don't know… maybe when I visit you and you can tour me around." 

"Sure," She rinsed her hair and body and then, she put the towel around her body and came out. She approached the tablet. He's currently in the bathroom brushing his teeth and he looked adorable. 

"So, what do you think of moving my company there?" he asked. "I mean, the office will remain but still, I am expanding and I want to put my HQ close to you." 

"That's sweet of you." She said and wring her hair with the microfiber towel. She placed the tablet on the stand while choosing her dress. 

"I don't want to be apart from you," Caleb said. "You know, I can have a sleepover and massage you if you want." 

She giggled and took the purple formal dress and showed it to him. 

"You will look gorgeous, love." He pointed to his toothbrush and he washed his mouth. 

"But, are we really back together, Cal?" 

"Why not?" He grinned. "I won't force you to do things you don't like. You know that I never forced you into something you don't like."

She sighed and nodded at him. 

"I love the idea of us back together. I mean, I am already divorced and I should have cheated on that bastard long ago~with you." 

"Babe, I know that you can't do such a thing," Caleb said. "By the way, have you seen my gym here? I renovated it." 

Kaisley watched him and moved to another room to show it to her. 

"Wow, that's great." She smiled at him. "I'm gonna go. I don't want to be late." 

"Alright! Bye, babe." 

"Bye." She smiled and hung up. Kaisley thinks that it's too fast. But their love stills and what's with the fuss? They have a very long time to know each other although Kaisley mostly knows all about him. 

 

Kenzo's eyes widened seeing his beloved wearing a white and grey retro French dress. The skirt had white embroidered flowers and she matched it with white shoes and a white hat. Her makeup was light that complimented her beauty. Somehow, Kenzo liked it when her face is bare and doesn't have any make-up on. She's naturally beautiful to him. 

"Hey, beautiful." He grinned. She hugged him and kissed his lips. "Well, I have to gather myself before we leave for the manor." 

"Manor?" 

He nodded and pointed his forefinger to her nose. 

"It's the manor where our family used to stay. We are opening it up again for the farmers. It has been secluded for a long time." 

"But what about the lands for plowing?" She asked. 

"We have farmers who rent a few spots." 

"So, how much does the manor charge them?" 

"Just a little amount. They should have more income and they always give the excess to the manor. This time," He smiled. "Instead of charging them, few of their harvest will be sent to the restaurant, for free." He said as their staff took their luggage and Kenzo took her hand. They strode to the elevator that the Butler held for them. They entered as the Butler pressed the ground floor. 

"Love, what should I say to them? You know that I am an introvert and greetings to strangers and too many strangers are hard for me." She pouted at him. 

"Don't worry. We can practice later in the car." 

"Okay." She nodded at him. 

Soon, their sedan arrived. Once they were inside, Kenzo took the pillow from the other seat and put it on her side. She smiled at him and she removed her hat and put it on the other seat together with her purse. After fifteen minutes of travel leaving Lwazi, Kenzo's phone suddenly started ringing. 

"Excuse me, love." 

She nodded and he pulled it out and answered it. 

"Yes?" 

"Sir Estrama?" 

"Speaking." 

"Sir, this is the guard on duty from the North Residence. Currently, outside are people looking for Miss Victoria. It's her father's people." 

"Got it. Tell them what you know." 

"Yes, sir." 

"Thank you for calling," Kenzo said and hung up. 

"What's that?" She asked. 

"Nothing to worry about." He said and held her hand. "So, what do you like for lunch when we arrive at the manor?" 

"Well, I'll eat anything." She shrugged. 

"Alright." He gently pulled her closer to him and kissed her forehead. "You can have a little nap, my dear. It's a three-hour drive." 

"Alright." She snuggled to him. "I might feel dizzy from the long drive." She mumbled. He patted her head. 

"I am ready for that." 

Kenzo gave her a medicine and once she took it, she snuggled to him. It only took less than two hours since they had Etrama Police in big bikes to escort them. They are safe at the moment. It's also a good thing that he moved the schedule on visiting the manor. Her father is currently searching for her and he's afraid that the man hurt her. 

At the time that they reached the manor, Kenzo noticed a few reporters outside the manor. They have tight security and how did they know that they were coming? Kenzo watched as Victoria put her hat on and her sunglasses. 

"What should I say?" 

"Just be yourself, love." He said softly. 

It's a long driveway and Victoria was already fascinated with the fruit-bearing trees on the driveway. It's also clean and organized and in the main house are people waiting. There is also a maze garden and a long pond and fountain. Like a mansion from a different era. She was happy as farmers who were dressed well were waiting for them. The door opened and Kenzo came out first. Victoria was a little nervous as she reached for her purse and removed her sunglasses to meet them. She hopped out as Kenzo stood by her side. 

"Welcome to Victoria Grand Manor!" They greeted cheerfully as the bow/curtsied. 

She looked up at him as he winked. He bent down and whispered in his ear. 

"It's the original name of the manor and it's yours." 

Her eyes widened. 

"Thank you for having us," Victoria said. 

"Thank you for taking care of the manor," Kenzo said as they shook the hands of the farmers who were grateful to meet them.
