The following day, Anastasia's eyelashes twitched slightly, and she cautiously opened her eyes after sleeping all night.
She awoke to a nicely adorned room that was utterly unfamiliar to her, rather than the comfortable bedroom she was used to.
Anastasia's heart sank. The last image she saw before losing consciousness was of herself discussing the previous night of collaboration with Gudrich Voss of Dreamscape Media. After that, she drank a glass of champagne and...
Have I...?
No!!! She panicked.
How? Why?!
Anastasia's countenance changed dramatically, and she yelled, head in her hands!
The room door was suddenly shoved open, and a man hurriedly ran in. "Anastasia, what's wrong?"
When Anastasia heard Ethan's familiar voice, she burst into tears and entered his arms. She hugged him hard and burst into tears.
Ethan quickly wrapped Anastasia in his arms and massaged her back, comforting her. "It's okay. Nothing has happened to you. You mistakenly took some heavy sleeping medications, which is why you've been sleeping until now. Nothing else occurred. Do not be terrified.
Anastasia's acute horror subsided after hearing this. She carefully felt her body, and it appeared to be okay.
"But… "I recall Gudrich Voss and his glass of champagne..." Anastasia trembled at the idea of the scene.
"That's okay. I rushed over yesterday and got you home in one piece. Gudrich Voss, the bastard, will also face punishment. You don't have to be terrified anymore. Ethan comforted Anastasia warmly.
It was usual for women to become agitated and worried after encountering something like that.
After being consoled by Ethan, Anastasia gradually regained her calm. After a time, she realized she was embracing Ethan tightly.
"Ah." Anastasia quickly let go of him and turned away, wiping the tears from her face. She felt humiliated and shy. I grabbed the initiative and jumped into his arms, crying. How embarrassing!
Ethan noticed Anastasia's tiny ears were already red, even though he couldn't see her expression well.
Ethan busted out laughing and coughed. "Um, I brought you back here last night, and it was inconvenient for me to help you change out of your clothing. The room includes a bathroom and a closet with women's clothes. Go take a shower, then come for breakfast."
After saying this, Ethan walked out and carefully locked the door behind him.
Anastasia lifted her hand and patted her warm cheeks, instinctively smiling after Ethan had departed. She was saved by Ethan again!
Anastasia gazed around the enormous and luxurious room and noticed a large floor-to-ceiling window with a balcony facing south. To the east, there was a considerable closet the size of the wall.
Anastasia leaped out of bed and opened the closet.
To her amazement, the closet was primarily full of women's clothes, half of which included items for tiny girls. There were few men's outfits.
The women's clothes were all her size, while the children's clothes were Sophia's size, and they were all beautifully designed and stylish. Most of them were custom-made designer clothes from major luxury labels. Label tagged amount were enormous!
There were also many accessories, including handbags, shoes, and caps. Most women wished to acquire such a magnificent and immaculate closet!
Anastasia realized that Ethan had planned everything for her and Sophia.
It came out that Ethan had covertly prepared many things while she was unaware.
He had previously sworn that he would treat Anastasia and Sophia nicely.
Anastasia suddenly felt her nose become painful and strongly wanted to cry.
After showering, she changed into a bright yellow dress and strolled out of the room, only to be left speechless by the beautiful design of the luxurious villa.
The stairs were made of pure crystal, and there was a vast and tall dome, a chandelier adorned with bright jewels, and gorgeous and fabulous ancient objects. The villa was as luxurious and opulent as a lovely palace.
Anastasia was at a loss for words as she looked around in wonder.
Does Ethan own all of this? Is he really that rich?
"Everything belongs to us and Sophia. "This is our home," Ethan whispered, smiling as he stepped towards Anastasia.
Anastasia's cheeks were crimson once again, and she stared at Ethan. "I'm not your family."
However, her flare was neither deterrent nor antagonistic. Instead, it was pretty cute.
Ethan knew Anastasia would become shy quickly, so he didn't say anything else and led her to the dining room.
The furniture in the light and open dining area was stunning and expensive. A wide floor-to-ceiling window also faced the outside, allowing her to glimpse the pristine lake. The lovely air blew in slowly, stroking her face and making her feel comfortable. Such a beautiful view.
Anastasia noticed that the table was covered in a snowy white tablecloth and had an array of dishes.
There was aromatic porridge, delicious corn, fried eggs, crab sandwiches, and two glasses of milk.
Ethan pointed to the crab sandwich. "Sorry, I'm not skilled at cooking sandwiches, so they are pre-made and reheated. Hope you don't mind."
Anastasia was even more startled when she learned this. She pointed to the delicious breakfast buffet and asked, "You made all of this?"
Ethan nodded. "I don't cook very much. Therefore, my culinary talents are mediocre. Try these and see whether you like them. If not, I'll prepare something different."
Anastasia was dumbfounded entirely now.
After seeing Ethan's wealth, she assumed some maids or cooks had made breakfast. But, to her astonishment, Ethan prepared everything himself! What a good husband!
A man who didn't cook much prepared a delicious meal for her. He was even concerned that if she wouldn't like it and wanted to prepare a fresh set.
She was touched.
Anastasia was overcome with conflicting emotions at the time. She was feeling bittersweet.
"Why are you doing all of this for me?" Anastasia inquired, crying.
Ethan smiled. "Because I like you, I want to treat you well."
Anastasia was unaware that Ethan had been carrying a flame for her for almost seven years.
Throughout his time in the army, Ethan overcame obstacles and dangers by remembering Anastasia until he reached his current position.
After seven years, his feelings for her had progressed into love.
Ethan Knight, the God of War, would go to great lengths for Anastasia because he loved her!
