Chapter 13: 13 | am married
The tour around was a long walk for Davis even though he sat on a wheelchair but never for once has he dreamt
for such a day because since he returned from the hospital he had never stepped foot into his bedroom; but
Jessica's in insistence had left him no option but to silently point to the door of the room he had abhorred for
months.
With a creak, the door opened revealing a room decorated in black and white. The curtains and bed linens
matched with the colour of the room, giving the space a cold, distant vibe while preserving it purity. At the far
end of the room stood a king-size bed with black-and-white bedding. A small bedside table with a lamp sat next
to it. On one side of the bedroom is a Walk-in closet adjacent to the washroom for easy access. A low sofa near
the floor-to-ceiling window and a glass table in the middle of the room. The space looked clean and neat with
everything kept simple and tidy. A simple glance at the room gives one a rough sketch of the personality of the
occupant which is currently a stark contrast to the man in the wheelchair.
Jessica took in the little details of the room arrangement and decor which gave her a rough insight in the life of
Davis and she was able to draw one inference — he is a meticulous man that loves to keep things simple.
She sighed heavily and slowly wheeled Davis into the center of the room. "Mr. Davis, | think we have to draw the
curtain of our tour here. | believe you need rest while | need my beauty sleep." She chimed and turned around to
walk away while Davis sighed in relief but his hope was a short-lived one as she paused at the door "I will send in
your assistant to help you freshen up". She said leaving him no option of rejection, she waved at him and before
he could retort the door clicked shut.
Sitting on the wheelchair he clenched his fist as he forced himself to suppress the rage he felt from this intruder.
Things aren't going the way he expected. Desmond had mentioned the girl to be unassuming, simple and
obedient but this lady is a total opposite of his expectations. He was hoping that after signing the certificate she
will silently move into her room letting him be but it seems that hope is a dashed one.
Like one in a dream land, Davis calmed his breathe and took a deliberate and quiet gaze around the room he had
been scared of entering ever since his return. Ethan had really worked hard, he had ensured to keep everything
in order. Slowly he wheeled himself to the walk-in closet and pulled it open revealing several closets with
different suits design but all in white and black. The drawers housing his tie, wristwatch and other accessories to
match each outfit, a bitter smile on his lips as he stared at them lost in thought.

"Madam said | should help you with your bath before you lie down to rest after a hectic tour", he concluded relief
in his voice.
Ethan was surprised when Jessica cdownstairs and called him to go Davis room and help him to freshen up.
She further gave a long set of instructions about what to take note of. He didn't expect that someone will be able
to force Davis into his room let alone to take a bath. He usually cleans himself without a full body bath. At first
Ethan was worried but then as tprogressed he couldn't change his mind— he let him be.
This lady is full of surprises and might be the perfect match for his stubborn lord. Davis noted the happiness and
relief in Ethan's voice making him clench his in anger. "Ethan, you are already taking sides with the Brown's
daughter?", He sneered.
Ethan was surprised at his boss comment because he is not in any way supporting Jessica but it's more of him
being happy about a change in his life. "Sir, it's not what you think but it will be wrong to address her with her
nwhen she is legal married to you." He answered.
"Legally married when | am thinking she is invading my life", Davis scoffed. Ethan felt amused at this complaint
while he gently wheeled him to the bathroom.
In the bathroom, Ethan quickly prepared a hot bath for him according to the instructions Jessica gave to him
adding a mix of several essential oils — lavender, eucalyptus and peppermint. Gently he helped him into the
bathtub letting him soak for a while and he returned to his bedroom to prepare his clothes and his meal.
Ethan wheeled him back to the bedroom where he had his meal before laying down. Davis since his waking up
always had difficulty with sleeping which had contributed to his prolonged use of his study. He was expecting the
sincident that has always plagued his night but then he slept off immediately laid down.
Ethan returned to check on him but found him sleeping peacefully, for the first tin weeks his brow relaxed
and expression peaceful. Ethan sighed, today is a good harvest and a good start for the future. "I just hope Miss
Brown wouldn't be working for Desmond", he muttered.
Jessica returned to her room which is just a simple bedroom not as rich as the master bedroom but cozy and
comfortable enough with its view of the vast green lush of the lawn behind the building captivating. She drew
the curtains open and a wave of fresh air filled the room carrying the sweet fragrance of blooming flowers from
the garden.
Stretching out her hand, she breathed in the air greedily filling her lungs, the day had been quiet exhausting but
it was worth with. Step one of her journey had been accomplished, the journey wouldn't be an easy one, so
many things needs to be put in place.
Pulling out her phone, she dialed the familiar number "What are your findings?", she asked coldly, her voice
devoid of any emotion.
Richard on the other noticed the change in her tone and gulped nervously. Quickly he gave a brief summary of
his findings. "Desmond, had been pressuring elder Allen to handover Davis inheritance share which was left for
him by the father", he replied.
"And the company?" She asked.

"What's up with you, why are getting yourself sucked into the Allen's family vortex? That family is a mess, you
know that? He queried.
Richard knew Jessica must up to something that she is even asking him to keep an eye on the Allen family and
he always felt it isn't simple.
