Chapter 566: THE DREAM
He was quiet. He was trying to face his motions and trying to understand her affection for him.
The silence was too much for Dorothy to handle. "What's wrong?" she asked him. "Did I say something wrong? Your expression is scaring m...!"
Before she could finish her sentence, she was tightly embraced by him. She was surprised by this sudden action. Feeling confused, she hugged him back. She patted his back as if she was trying to assure him of his unspoken worries.
He swore, "I will be with you every day. I will support you with everything you decide on. Whatever you choose, I'll be there by your side. I will make your every dream come true."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She smiled when she heard it. "I know you will, even if you don't say it. You are my greatest wish. That's why I want to be with you. I apologize. I'm being selfish."
"Be selfish. You can be selfish," he encouraged her.
They stayed like that for a long time, feeling each other's presence. Just feeling each other's warmth "You always live here. Are we going to live here after we get married?"
"We can if you want," he replied. "Arthur and Veronica live here. This is practically our house since we eat, sleep and work here. I never heard Veronica say anything about having a separate house. But that doesn't mean we have to do the same thing. I already have a mansion in the city. I thought you wanted to live there. I bought it years ago. I never thought you wanted a hut."
He bought the house after becoming the Second Master of the Magic Tower. He decorated it with her taste in mind. Back then, he cried inside while doing the decoration. At that time, she was dead. He was imagining how happy she would be after seeing all that. At that moment, he knew it was in vain but he once promised himself that he would do this for her. He gained everything for her. He planned that after his retirement, he would move her body there and guard her until his last breath.
"You have a mansion?!" Dorothy was stunned. "Why didn't you say it before?"
"Do you want to live there? I can just demolish it and turn it into a hut if you want," Ovior said.
"Why are you saying? If you have no work to do, let's go there now!" Dorothy stood up and pulled his hand.
He smiled and teleported themselves in front of the mansion. It was a huge place. In front of the mansion, there was a massive fountain. The garden was filled with colorful flowers. Anyone who knew Dorothy would know the vibe of the place was similar to hers.
"This place is gorgeous!" she exclaimed in surprise. She had never seen a beautiful place in her life. However, despite the beauty of nature and architecture, she didn't see any other life. "Who takes care of the garden and the mansion? I don't see people here."
"I will take you inside," Ovior said. "You will know the answer." He took her hand and guided her to the mansion.
As soon as they stepped on the stairs, the giant doors of the mansion opened on their own. There wasn't any human presence there but the entire place was sparkling as if they were cleaned with utmost care every single day.
"This is..." Dorothy was speechless. "Did you use magic?"
Ovior didn't have to mention anything because she was a mop and a bucket in the corridor. The mop was doing the cleaning and the bucket was going after it.
"I love magic," she said. She realized if magic could be used like this, they would never need a maid. That would save them a fortune!
She didn't know magic like that cost triple that of having a maid. This kind of magic is done by huge magic stones depending on how spacious the place is. The magic inside the stone has to be renewed every month and depending on the size of the stone, it may cost a person's lifetime fortune.
Luckily for her, her soon-to-be husband was the Second Master of the Magic Tower. They wouldn't have to hire a magician to renew the magic. He could do it every month. They wouldn't have to spend a penny.
"Do you like this place or do you want me to turn it into a hut?" he asked.
"Huh? No! No, no, don't do that. I love this place. This is a place you built and decorated thinking of me, I will never think of going anywhere else." Dorothy was emotional. Several bottles of emotions turned her as soft as cotton candy. With tears tickling her eyes, she said, "Thank you for building this place. I'm so happy that I cannot describe it. This place is so precious."
Ovior took her in his arms to console her. His heart was content. The person he built this place for was able to see the mansion. This place finally found its owner.
He said from the top of his head, "As you can see, everything in the house is being taken care of. If you want to change something in the garden, just let me know. I will hire a chef who can cook for you whatever you want. You will also need two personal maids as you cannot use magic. When I'm not there, they will help you. It will also make you less lonely."
"The chef cannot do anything on his own. Who will cut the vegetables and slice the meat for him?" Dorothy thought about having guests in the mansion. It would be hard for the poor chef to cook on his own.
Ovior said, "He can use the magic stone as a helping hand."
Dorothy didn't like that. Even when she worked, she would want someone to help her. She retorted, "What if he is lonely cooking alone in the big kitchen?"
"Then, we will ask him if he wants a helping hand or magic stone."
Satisfied with his words, she was reassured. "I should look for maids starting tomorrow. I'll ask Asha and Nisay to help me."
