The driver noticed Chloe’s concerns and explained, “Mr. Joseph just returned to the country recently. There’s no other place for him to stay other than the ancestral mansion so he temporarily purchased this house. If you mind it, I can talk to him.”

“No, no, I don’t mind!” She forgot that Joseph had been living abroad for many years. It was normal for him not to have a house here. When she gave it a second thought, living under the same roof seemed like a good option to foster closer ties.

As soon as the driver left, Chloe picked up her suitcase and walked into the bedroom next to Joseph’s.

At half past five in the afternoon, she finished unpacking. She went to the living room and scanned the place. The villa was minimally decorated, with only the essentials for living and there was a lot of sparse, empty space. As the driver had mentioned, it looked like Joseph had just recently moved in.

Chloe’s eyes fell on the refrigerator. When she opened it, she found that it was fully stocked with fresh ingredients. Her eyes brightened up and immediately started searching online for cooking tutorials. After all, as someone’s wife, she had an obligation to serve her husband hot, fresh meals when he came home from work.

Half an hour later, Joseph got home.
