Justin only felt relieved when he saw no trace of disgust on Aurora's face. "Let's head inside," he said.

The entire stilt house was built with bamboo and wood, very much in line with Aurora's expectations. She found herself liking this style.

It was evident that the house was regularly cleaned-everything from the exterior to the interior was spotless. The decor combined a modern aesthetic with a touch of ethnic flair.

The furniture, like the tables and chairs, was made of rattan or bamboo, with intricate handmade carvings embellishing their surfaces. The modern elements included a sofa, television, and fully equipped bathroom and kitchen.

"In the future, when you're bored, you can watch TV. I'll also have someone get some painting supplies for you. Let me know if there's anything you need," Justin said gently.

If she weren't staying here under the guise of captivity, Aurora would've truly enjoyed this place. It was perfect for relaxing and unwinding. If Julian were by her side, it would've been even more ideal.

After the long car ride, Aurora was indeed tired. Justin noticed the weariness in her expression and suggested, "Go upstairs and rest for a while. You and Mrs. Woolf can have the master bedroom."

"There's no need. I'll take the secondary bedroom," Aurora replied. She didn't want to act like the owner of the house; after all, she wasn't.

Justin couldn't argue with her and eventually let her stay in the secondary bedroom. Despite being the smaller room, it was still spacious and bright.

The bamboo-framed windows were draped with light white curtains, lending the room

a poetic charm. Aurora was quite satisfied with her accommodations.
