Luna thought that she and Amber would be alone, but a moment after Hero left, an old woman and a young teenage boy came out from the kitchen and greeted her.
"Master Hero has informed us about your arrival, Milady. Your things have been moved by Rico, your personal bodyguard, to your room. I'm the caretaker of this house; you may call me Madam Lin. This is my grandson, Adam."
"Hello, I'm Luna Jiang. I hope we get along." Luna slightly inclined her head.
Madam Lin was pleased that the woman her master chose to marry wasn't a frivolous woman. Luna Jiang might not be as pretty as the other women she'd seen flaunting to get Hero's attention, but she could tell that this woman was a good choice.
Even their young miss Little Amber seemed bewitched by Luna Jiang's charm. Everyone within the estate knew that Little Amber doesn't like people touching her, but with Luna, she seemed like a little puppy that follows her owner with wagging tails.
"We've prepared your dinner, Miss Luna. I'm sure you're tired from your long day." Madam Lin then turned to Little Amber. "Does Little Amber want to join us for dinner?"
The little girl nodded in response and held her Mommy Luna's hand. Luna smiled at her before following Madam Lin for dinner. She noticed the lack of dust in the front hall and hallways. Most surfaces were polished and cleaned, giving a light scent of lavender within the area.
Following Madam Lin's lead, they came to the tall doors that led to the dining room, where another man stood waiting for them to arrive. Bowing low, the man opened the double doors and let them inside the dining room.
Everything was spotless. Luna couldn't even see a speck of dirt anywhere. The long table reflected light from the chandelier, and the flooring was so shiny one could see one's own reflection.
Looking towards the table, she saw two placemats with shiny silverware and a plate of steak with mashed potato on one side.
"Are you hungry?" Luna asked Little Amber, "It's getting late. We should eat and take a rest."
Little Amber nodded and sat in front of the dining table, waiting for her mommy to sit beside her. Madam Lin, Rico, and Adam watched in shock as Little Amber followed Luna's suggestion without throwing a fit.
Usually, by this time, their Little Amber would refuse to dine with anyone. She would throw things and cry until either Master Hero or Miss Joanna arrives to console her.
But with Miss Luna…
What sorcery was this?
She only said a few words, and Little Amber listened to her without making a fuss.
The two started eating with Luna occasionally glancing on her side to see if the little girl was eating properly. Joanna had mentioned that they were having troubles with Little Amber not eating her meals on time and not taking her medicines which her body needed to recover.
"Eat more okay? You seem to lose some weight after being hospitalized. I will be sad if you get sick again."
Little Amber slowed down eating to stare back at her mommy. She blinked twice before nodding once again. She then started eating with a serious expression on her face. She even ate the vegetables that she hated the most.
She obediently ate everything that was placed on her plate until it was clean.
The other elders within the room stood in shock as they watch Little Amber ate heartily. How could this be possible?! Did their Master Hero marry Miss Luna because of Little Amber? Even professional doctors couldn't cure their little miss's bad habits.
Madam Lin regained her senses and smiled. Finally, someone was able to tame their young miss! She hoped that there wouldn't be another round of tantrum anytime soon. She cringed at the memory of the ruined living space the last time Little Amber threw a tantrum.
There was a lot of yelling and crying, with broken furniture and expensive vases crashed on the floor. Ah, thinking about it was really a disaster.
Now that Miss Luna was here, Madam Lin hoped that she would be able to help Little Amber.
Finishing their meals, Luna fed her dog and gave him a bowl of fresh water to drink. She then volunteered to help Little Amber take a bath and tuck her to bed while Madam Lin cleaned the dining room and the kitchen.
Adam was kind enough to lead Luna towards Little Amber's room. She wasn't surprised to see the walls painted with light pink and a four-poster bed complete with drapes and a canopy placed at the center of the room.
Luna was glad that the girl was obediently listening to her. After giving her a quick bath and drying her hair, she tucked her on the bed and stayed at her side until she fell asleep. Luna hummed a song while she tried to think what to do now that she was married.
Should she resign from work? Would her husband allow her to her work?
These past few weeks had been a lot of ups and downs in her life. One moment, she was happy being Jasper's girlfriend; the next moment, she was now President Li's wife. She knew that it wasn't the end of it. She still had to find out what really happened to her brother's accident. She had this nagging feeling that it wasn't just a coincidence.
Realizing that the girl had finally fallen asleep, she slipped out from the bed and closed the door silently, hoping that she wouldn't wake up the child in her slumber.
Luna released a sigh she didn't know she was holding. It was only then it came to her that she didn't know where to sleep!
Being the new lady of the house, did that mean she shared a room with her husband?
