Chapter 13: 13 I 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, I think we have to draw the curtain of our tour here. I believe you need rest while I 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.

"Sir", Ethan called behind him snapping him out of his daze. Hearing no response from him he continued "Madam said I should help you with your bath before you lie down to rest after a hectic tour", he concluded relief in his voice.
