The car stopped at the entrance of the his family's villa.
Wilson opened the car door for Alina courteously. Alina may have appeared to be smiling, but only she knew, she was extremely nervous at this moment.
Although she had been exposed to the rich and wealthy while she was in a relationship with Ken, the Scott Family's villa trumped them all. It was so much grander than any other mansion she had seen before.
"Nervous?" Wilson saw through Alina's anxiety with a glance.
"A little!" Alina replied honestly.
Wilson smiled when he saw her nervousness. He reached out to hold her hand and said, "Relax, just act as you did at the banquet. You'll be fine!"
"Alright." Alina nodded. She muttered under her breath to calm herself down, "Okay, Alina, it's not a big deal. Just be natural, you are playing the role of a good wife. This is all a show, none of it is real. The luxury and grandeur before you are just props in the show."
"I will answer any questions from my family if I am able to. Don't feel burdened and leave it to me." Wilson added.
"Alright!" Alina nodded, telling herself to not be nervous. However, her palms had already started to sweat.
"Good evening, Mr. Wilson!" The butler and servants greeted Wilson when they saw him.
Wilson nodded and informed the staff, "She's my wife, call her Mrs. Wilson!"
Alina was sweating bullets. Why did she feel as if he was going too fast?
The butler and the servants greeted her in unison, "Good evening, Mrs. Wilson!"
Alina became more tensed but she showed her usual charming smile and nodded at them. Although she felt extremely uncomfortable to be called Mrs. Wilson, it was a basic courtesy to acknowledge them with a smile.
"Good job!" Wilson bent down and whispered in her ear.
"Thank you!" Alina smiled awkwardly.
Wilson smiled in return and led Alina to the dining hall.
The dining hall in the villa was divided into the main hall and several smaller rooms. The main hall was rarely used because it was too huge. The long dining table was filled with more than sixty dishes, but it still looked bare.
