The Rule
Livia got off the online taxi that she had taken from the restaurant earlier and paid the fee. Then, she went into the house, carrying the packed lunch box she had brought from the restaurant.
In the living room, the father and stepmother were talking, waiting for the return of their daughter, who would be the savior of the family.
When Livia entered the door, her father immediately stood up from his seat and pulled his daughter’s hand to sit on the chair.
“How? Mr. Damian likes you, right?” From NôvelDrama.Org.
That’s all they want to know.
“You’re not causing trouble, are you? What’s that you brought?” Her stepmother took the bag that was still in Livia’s hand.
“Food from Mr. Damian,” Livia answered.
*Food? Does that mean he likes you? You two are getting married, right?” Bob seemed enthusiastic.
“Everything went according to father’s plan. I’m tired, and I’ll excuse myself to my room.” Livia answered flatly.
“Okay, okay. go get some rest.”
The two didn’t care that clear crystals were in their daughter’s eyelids, which dripped down as she walked up the stairs.
Only laughter could be heard from the two of them. They are out of bankruptcy, and life will be easier for them in the future.
In a cafe, at lunchtime.
“This is rules that you must pay attention to after becoming the young master’s wife. I’ve written it down in detail.”
Assistant Brown handed a large brown envelope in front of Livia. Follow-up meeting after the first meeting with her future husband.
Livia did not know the real name of the man sitting in front of her. She only knows that his last name is Brown.
Livia opened the envelope. There are many sheets of paper inside. It was as if she was reading an exam paper when she was at school. Her hands were shaking.
What’s this? I feel like I’m not considered as human when I read every rule after becoming Damian Alexander’s wife.’
Again, Assistant Brown made it clear. He also wrote down all the habits and preferences of Damian in great detail.
Do I have to memorize all of this?’
“If there is something you want to ask, please?”
‘I want to protest and throw these papers in your face. Damn it!’ This was what Livia wanted to say, but she smiled. “Thank you for your hard work, Assistant Brown. I will read and memorize it so as not to make a mistake later.” That’s what came out of Livia’s mouth, smiling, as she would say, wow, you are amazing. I am very impressed with your extraordinariness.
That’s what Livia is trying to show through her smile.
“It’s my duty to keep the situation around the young master running according to what it should be.”
‘Wow, are you that strange boy slave?’ Livia grumbled in her heart.
“The main thing is you must pay attention to serve the young master and carry out the lady’s duty as the young master’s wife.”
Unconsciously Livia touched the button of her shirt.
“I think except for that. Don’t expect to be able to serve the young master in bed because you’re not really the type of woman the young master likes.”
‘What! Who wants to sleep with that guy? I’m actually happy that he never even touched a strand of my hair.’ Livia let out a sign of relief. “It’s a shame. Mr. Damian Alexander is very handsome. Laugh.” Livia was sure she had gone crazy for saying it, but she laughed cheerfully while saying the line.
Her attitude made Assistant Brown’s expressions change a bit.
‘This girl was really unique. Even though her lips and hands were shaking, she could say such things. I know you’ve been trying to hold it in, but I can still see it, Miss.’
“You have to simply say ‘okay’ on every young master’s order. There’s no need to ask why. Just do everything you’re told.” Brown continued his sentence.
“Okay, is that so?” Livia blinked her eyes.
‘Pift, this girl is fearless.’
“In the Alexander Residence you will live in the young master’s mother and his two younger sisters are there. You only have to respect them and not make a fuss with them. Remember, the one you have to
serve is your husband, so don’t care about anything else.” Assistant Brown resumed his explanation.
“Okay, go on.” Livia sipped her iced coffee without feeling burdened by what the man said.
But believe me, her hands under the table are already sweating cold. She had begun to feel what kind of hell she had to enter to make up for her family’s luxurious life.
“You can keep doing your current job, keep in touch with your family, or meet up with your friends. But what you have to pay attention to is you must be at home before the young master returns. So please read on the paper sheet about what you should do when the young master returns home.”
Livia turned to look at the paper. She turned in a few sheets then found a detailed description of what she had to do. Livia glared at Assistant Brown, saying, ‘Is your boss the emperor?’
“Right, as you think.”
Livia covered her mouth. ‘Could this man read my mind?’
“Young master is the emperor, who can make your family alive or destroy it in the blink of an eye.”
“Okay.” Livia shuddered. “I will do my best. But may I ask a question?”
“Please, Miss.”
“Can I also have sex with other men? Have a boyfriend, for example?”
Assistant Brown’s expression changed. He looked at the woman in front of him. He knew this girl was just a victim of her parents’ greed . But how could she be so fearless like this? Especially after he handed her an envelope containing the rules she had to fulfill after becoming the wife of Damian.
Livia took another sip of her drink, waiting for an answer from Assistant Brown.
“Are you serious about what you’re asking?” Brown looked disapproved. This girl in front of him seemed to really have layered courage. Yet, at the same time, she is shameless to the max. Was it because desperation made her act this brave?
“Well,” Livia answered and pursed her lips. So cute. “As long as you can do it without the young master knowing it, I think it’s fine. But of course, don’t let other people know. Do it and hide it tightly. So no one smells it ever.” His tone changed-firm, like giving a warning.
“Is that true? Wow, this is excellent news.” Livia tried to maintain the way she spoke so that her lip did not tremble.
“But I warn you first, young master’s anger is tough to quench. So I hope you are wise and take a caring attitude.”
“Okay.” She smiled cheerfully.
‘What?! She wrapped a hopeless smile with that cheerful attitude. She’s really great.’
Assistant Brown took out a card. “This is an unlimited credit card. You can use it to buy anything. But I suggest you be wise in using it because later, the young master will ask what you have used is for.”
“Well, thank you, I will use it with gratitude.” Livia took the card and placed it in front of him. “Can I buy a house with this card?”
“I suggest you don’t, Miss.” Assistant Brown’s voice sounded firm again.
“Pfft. I was just kidding. Assistant Brown.”
Assistant Brown smiled wryly, displeased. He actually didn’t really like his master’s future wife from the very beginning because he knows the underlying reason for his decision to choose Livia, a woman who is not his type. She was just a tool for escape and his revenge.
It is the most troublesome if there are problems that arise in the future.
“Do you already have a girlfriend, Assistant Brown?” Livia took another sip of her drink.
“Sorry, Miss, I can’t answer questions that are personal to me.”
“Then, do you want to be my lover?”
