Kenzo watched as her wife looked broken after the sales lady insulted her. Stacey was ready to defend her. 

"Miss, that stock was her size. Get it now, please." Stacey said. 

"Sorry, Ma'am but this~~" 

"Just as I expected." Victoria scoffed. "Let's leave." 

Kenzo approached the saleslady. 

"I would like to ask for your manager," Kenzo said as he took out a platinum card. "I'm buying those shoes, I don't care what size and I'm buying ten sets of shoes for my wife and her friend. Do you understand me?" He sounded irritated and cold.

Victoria was surprised by his sudden outburst. She took the card and put it back in his pocket. 

"Let's not buy it." She said softly to coax him. 

"What can I possibly do with ten sets of shoes?" She asked. 

"Sell the old one and use the new ones." 

Stacey gaped at Kenzo. The sales lady scuffled but Kenzo looked pissed. She never saw Kenzo like this. He's so intimidating. 

"Kenz, please." Victoria pleaded. 

"No, love. We are changing your wardrobe." He said as he pulled her hand and dragged her to the sofa. "Stacey, just choose whatever you want." 

"Kenzo, I only need one pair," Stacey said as she sat beside Victoria. "And why the hell are you buying ten pairs of shoes?" 

"That's because that woman just insulted my wife," Kenzo said, his eyes seemed to sparkle in danger. 

"Oh~okay…" Stacey mumbled. 

Maverick sighed as he stood behind. 

"This is getting good," Caleb said. "This is a high-class shop." He walked around. 

"Find something useful," Kenzo told him. 

"I will do that. Useful for my future wife." Caleb mumbled. 

Stacey was happy for her best friend to have a doting husband but a scary one. At least, the man was doing his job protecting her. Just as Stacey wanted, she received a pair of beautiful shoes that she's going to wear at the upcoming party. She looked at Mave and told him how she's going to make Samara and her friend annoyed. 

The more Mave watched Stacey, the more he was in pain. It only reminds him that he has to leave sooner. He looked at Caleb and Kenzo who only wore casual clothes while they were inside the elite shot. It's the first time that sales ladies were gathered even kneeling in front of Victoria to fit the shoes that she likes. Soon, Kenzo will reveal his authority as a Duke and the future Crown Prince. 

"Mave, don't you like it?" She asked him. 

"It's beautiful. You are more beautiful." He told her. She giggled and hugged him. 

Mave doesn't want the hug to end. But soon, it will. 

Kenzo was pleased that even the manager made sure that everything Victoria wanted was given. Even new pairs of dresses. He bought it using the platinum card that he had. He doesn't care how much it costs. But with the bulks of boxes and paper bags, Caleb and Maverick cringed. 

"Damn, so you let us carry all of these?" Caleb asked Kenzo as Victoria giggled. Caleb stopped and looked at how happy Victoria was. Well, the girl's happiness is all that Caleb needed. 

Kenzo saw how Caleb admired Victoria and Stacey's little happiness. Soon, he'll give him the woman that he would love and pamper. The woman that would love him back and more.

"Okay, I'm off from shopping. This is crazy." Victoria said. "Just how much did we purchase?" She asked Kenzo again. Kenzo only laughed and patted her head. 

Kenzo didn't just buy one pair of shoes for Stacey but with another pair as saleswomen even fit her new dresses. Kenzo took only the limited editions. He had eyes in fashion and the Marquess business was always good. But somehow, salespeople always choose something else. 

"Are you happy?" Kenzo asked while carrying boxes full of his hands. She giggled and nodded. 

She's happy that she wasn't trampled anymore and those sales ladies have been slapped by his card. She's happy that she had a night and shining armor.  Now, she's worried about where to put the boxes for their shopping. They went to the parking lot where Caleb's adventure car was sitting. 

"It's a good thing that I have a big car, isn't it?" he grinned. 

"Thank you, Caleb," Victoria said as they piled up the things. 

They dropped off Victoria and Kenzo first and had their dinner in their house. Cooking was a happy thing to do. Kenzo wanted to make her wife feel happy to cover up the trauma from last night. Maverick, Caleb, and Stacey knew well what Kenzo was doing. So, Victoria was helping them and even forgot about last night. 

"What happened to your fist?" Victoria asked Kenzo. 

"Oh~~this…" Kenzo prolongs to find a way to lie. 

"He was catching a fly in the office and accidentally punched the wall." Caleb laughed. "The fly dodges it and so he gets annoyed." Caleb kept on laughing as Stacey and Maverick laughed too. Kenzo chuckled but Victoria wasn't satisfied with Caleb's answer. 

They have a happy dinner. Maverick was laughing as Caleb told how Kenzo ended up punching the wall for the damn fly that he didn't notice that he got bruises. Caleb even made it into action that he was kicking the fly. Victoria was laughing at the over-acting action that Caleb was doing. Soon, their friends left. Victoria felt so tired. All of them didn't have a good sleep. But still, she enjoyed the day. 

Kenzo organized her wardrobe while she went to the bathroom to clean up. He turned off everything and made sure that every window and door was locked. He joined her after. 

"Kenz," She called as she fixed the bed. 

"Yes, love?" He asked as he strode to the bathroom. 

"Where did you get the platinum card from the World Bank? Only the higher status could access that." She said as come out of the bathroom to her closet. Kenzo peeked on the bathroom door that is joined to the closet. 

"Why? Can't we commoners access it?" 

"We don't have that much money." She told him. "Kenz, tell me." 

Kenzo approached her and reached both of her hands and brought them to his cheeks. 

"I'll tell you everything when it's ready." He said softly. 

"What do you mean?" She was puzzled. 

"How about tea? Some tea that could help us both sleep? Or you want sex first?" 

"You are changing the topic." She pouted at him. 

"I'll tell you everything soon." He kissed her forehead. 

"Kenzo, I'm worried." She mumbled. 

"Why are you worried?" He asked. "You have a very sexy handsome husband." 

"That's why I'm worried." She sighed. "Everyone is willing to snatch you." 

He laughed and kissed her lips passionately. Then, he put her hands down and stepped back. 

"Wait for me. Relax first. Make sure that there's no hindrance. I'll be back." He said and rushed back to the bathroom. 

Victoria giggled as she put her clothes on and went to bed. 

"He looked adorable." 

He came out after. 

"I'm going to get some tea." He said with a grin. 

"Ugh, seriously?" She stood and followed him downstairs. 

He boiled water in the kettle first, then he settled on a set of teacups. Her teacups since she likes tea. 

"What's this?" 

"Well, it's from grandpa. It's good for you and me." He grinned. "So, we could conceive and you won't have a problem with the pregnancy. We only have to drink this every day." 

"Oh," She scratched her head. "I thought we were going to make love." 

"After this, I promise." 

They have their tea in their bedroom as they watch television. They cuddled on the love seat while enjoying the warm tea. She indeed felt good after drinking it.  They make love after and without Victoria's knowledge, Kenzo would sneak out, take out papers from the wardrobe and unlock the case. He sat on the love seat and started working. 

Kenzo has to keep up if he will have to take over the family business and the position as the Duke. Or else, they will always see his incompetence. He's doing it for his empire, for his grandfather, for the people, and mostly for his wife. His father and mother already left him. Now, he had specific people to protect. Firstly, his wife and then his grandfather, Secretary Bryan, Stacey, Maverick, and Caleb. 

He spotted a few missing things on the financial amount. Why is it so much? If Kaisley saw it, she would spot it. They split a few amounts not to make it look a little excessive? Just how many are there? He needed Kaisley and he didn't want her to resign. He knew that she'd turn over a resignation first, but he had to convince her a little. With her marriage going to be broken, Kenzo wanted to save the woman from misery. 

"Kenz," 

He glanced at the time. It's already three in the morning. His wife sat up and turned on the lampshade beside her. 

"Love, why are you still working?" She asked. "Can you do it tomorrow? I promise to clean up the house and cook. Just sleep with me." 

"Love, you don't have to clean up the house and cook." He put away everything after marking it. Then, he put it on the briefcase. 

He took out his phone and turned off the lampshade on the love seat. Then, he climbed over the bed and kissed her. 

"Let me send a message to Bryan and Kaisley." 

"Kaisley?" She creased her brows. 

"Yes, she's turning over a few works.." He kissed her lips and she didn't ask anymore.
