4. Rules After Marriage.

Alexander and Jennifer seated side by side in the rear chair. The man did not look at the woman at all. He was busy with his job schedule this afternoon. Alexander went to work today. He had no hope of being alone with his wife.

Meanwhile, Jennifer just sat in the backward seat, looking down. There was a big question mark bothering him about Alexander's attitude.

What made the man change? Jennifer wanted to ask a question. However, she gave up her purpose.

Behind the wheel was Kenzie, Alexander's secretary, assistant, and confidant. That man was the closest person to Alexander. Knowing all the secrets, advantages, and disadvantages. Including revenge plans, Kenzie was the one who knew best and designed it all. However, he had a weak heart. He couldn't bear to see a woman feeling miserable, as seen on the look on Jennifer's face this morning.

For work, Kenzie could handle it all. However, for matters with Jennifer and her marriage, the man only did what Alexander told him to do. He couldn't meddle in his affairs too much.

The bus arrived at the main gate of Alexander's mansion. The gate opened. Kenzie drove the van into the yard, then stopped it.

He went out, opened the door for Jennifer and Alex, then closed it again. Then he parked the car in the garage.

Jennifer and Alexander entered the house at their pace. No intimacy at all. A maid opened the door for them. There was a strange between the two of them, totally not reflecting a married couple.

"Take my wife to her room!" Alexander ordered the maid.

"Yes, sir," the maid. She didn't forget to bring a suitcase that was lowered from the car. Jennifer complied and followed her to the second floor.

Step by step, she was going up the stairs. Her body wore a navy-blue satin dress, making her feel cold. A bad premonition haunted her, seeing Alexander's cynical smile. What would happen next?

"Here, Mrs's office," the housemaid opened the door for Jennifer.

She entered, and the housemaid came in to arrange the clothes in her bag. Just as the housemaid opened the bag, Alexander arrived in the room. The man was standing at the door.

"Leave the two of us alone!" he told.

Waiting no longer, the maid stood up. "Okay, sir," they said, and left the master alone with his wife. They didn't forget to close the door.

Jennifer was alone with Alexander in his bedroom.

"After having a wife, I just need my wife to serve me. I don't need the maids to prepare my personal needs," Alexander explained. "Preparing clothes, making food, yeah, preparing everything!" he added.

"Yes," Jennifer answered. She looked down because she couldn't see her husband's eyes.

"Kenzie already arranged it here!" Alexander said, giving a light blue folder to Jennifer.

"Yes," Jennifer answered as she accepted the folder, not in the least bit intending to return Alexander's gaze.

"After this, I hope you can do your job, Jennifer!" he said.

"Yes," Jennifer answered.

Then, Alex came out of his room to go to serve.

Jennifer was alone in the room. He wanted to open the folder. However, she was more curious about Alexander and his past.

She called her dad.

The phone call connected.

"Hello," Mr. Charles answered.

"Hello, dad, I have something to ask you," Jennifer replied in a low voice.

However, Alexander came back into the place.

"Who did you call?" the man asked, walking over to his wife.

Jennifer ended the call.

"No one," the woman replied.

"Don't you dare to mess around!" Alexander, threatened, looked at his wife sharply.

"I am not doing anything!" Jennifer said.

"Good, open the folder and learn to be a useful wife!" Alexander commanded, not once gave a smile. Then, he took out one of his favorite watches and rushed out of his room. He went to work with his private secretary.

Jennifer, locked the bedroom door. She opened the light blue folder that she had placed on the bed. There were two sheets of A4 size paper in her hand.

The woman, trying to read it.

13. ...

Jennifer furrowing her brows, shook her head in annoyance. She couldn't stand to read the marriage customs anymore.

"I am your wife, not a servant! And you are my husband, not the master I should respect!" Jennifer protested, even more bothered. The guidelines were too burdensome for her. No matter how big his love for Alexander was, she would also feel annoyed and angry if he treated her badly.

Instead of being confused to find out Alexander's reason, Jennifer slept because she was still tired and tired after her wedding yesterday.

All day she slept, to reduce her tiredness.

Then Jennifer was awakened by the sound of her cell phone ringing. It was from her husband.

"Hello," Jennifer responded.

"Five minutes. I'll be home!" Alex said on the other end of the phone.

"Yes," Jennifer answered, her voice typical of a wake-up appeal.

"You already know what you have to do, Jennifer!" said the husband.

"What should I do?" she asked.

"Read merger rule number twelve and seventeen," he told.

Click! The man ended the call before Jennifer could answer.

Jennifer rubbed her eyelids. She grabbed the paper that was beside her body. She was reading wedding rules points 12 and 17.

"Good grief!" Jennifer cursed and got out of bed. She tied her hair and left the place. She went down the stairs and waited for her husband in the living chamber.

It didn't take long for a car to enter the yard. Jennifer was getting ready to welcome her husband. He walked towards the door and opened it.

"Finally, you're home too, dear. I missed you so much!" Jennifer said, then kissed the back of her husband's hand.

Alexander didn't answer. They went hand in hand towards the inside.

"Make some hot chocolate for me!" Alexander asked.

"Yes," Jennifer answered.

"Hurry and bring it to the chamber!" the husband explained.

Jennifer walked towards the kitchen, while Alexander climbed the stairs to his place.

Arriving in the kitchen, the youngest servant in the home approached Jennifer.

"Good evening, Mrs Jennifer . My name is Desi. How can I help you?" She offered.

"I want to make hot chocolate for my husband," Jennifer replied, walking to the pantry.

"Oh, well, I will help, all the maids in this house already memorized Mr. Alexander's favorite drink when he came home from work," she responded as she took a cup.

She poured three spoons of unsweetened chocolate, then gave a spoon of it with lukewarm water and with cold water. She didn't forget to stir it.

"Warm chocolate for Mr. Alexander is ready!" Desi said, handing the tray to Jennifer.

"Thank you," Jennifer answered. She smiled with satisfaction. Even though Alexander was cruel, all the maids in this house acted good with her.

"No need to thank, Mrs. Jennifer it's my job. Oh yes, I guarantee Mr. Alexander will like it, " Desi explained confidently.

Jennifer nodded.

With slow steps Jennifer walked until she reached the stairs she was more careful because she was not used to carrying drinks on a plate. Obviously, because Mr. Charles always pampered herself since childhood. Jennifer is the last child and only daughter. Mr. Charles and his two brothers loved the girl very much.

Jennifer arrived in front of the bedroom door. His right hand holds the plate, while his left help turns toward the door, still being careful and holding his breath. This job was not done.

Jennifer put the plate on the table. Then, she prepared a change of clothes for Alexander, who was in the bathroom, trying to remember every rule and obligation he had to do.

After setting everything up, Jennifer sat in a chair on the balcony, waiting for Alexander to finish showering.

Since childhood, Jennifer had been very fond of reading Manga, comic or picture stories originating from Japan. Therefore, after college, she had no interest in working at his father's hotel. She preferred to open a bookstore, 'AG book's' which was full of humorists.

To prepare for her marriage to Alexander, Jennifer had not come to her bookstore for two weeks. Then, the woman, today, intended to comply with her husband's wish to be allowed to go to AG book's tomorrow.

Alexander came out of the bathroom with a cloth wrapped around his waist. His hair was wet and disheveled.

Jennifer rushed over to her husband. "Here's the clothes, honey," Jennifer said, handing the pajamas to Alexander.

Alexander accepted it and wore it. He dried his hairstyle with a towel, then leaned back with two pillows on his bed.

"Where's the dessert?" Alexander asked, opening his laptop again. He was busy with a new hotel construction project, as a revenge plot.

Jennifer received the warm chocolate.

"Here, please drink!" Jennifer offered.

Alexander, receiving a glass of warm chocolate, received a sip.

Jennifer just watched.

"What glass is this! You want to make me diabetes, huh! It's too sweet! Make another one there!" Alexander shouted, handing the cup of warm chocolate to his wife.

Jennifer let out an exasperated sigh.

"Yeah, I'll do it again!" Jennifer answered, trying to be patient, came out of the room and intended to do more warm chocolate for her husband.

Arriving in the kitchen, Jennifer tasted the chocolate. According to him, it was not sweet, and Desi could not have taken the wrong measure because every day she made the chocolate for Alexander.

Jennifer spilled two spoons of chocolate and spilled hot water over the chocolate. She returned to the room and gave a cup of warm chocolate to her husband. Anyway, she had to obey Alexander to let her go to the bookstore tomorrow.

"this, a cup of chocolate," Jennifer said, giving it to Alexander.

Alexander sipped the chocolate drink slowly.

"AAK," the man shouted, spewing his drink on the floor.

"Why?" Jennifer asked, biting her lower lip. This time, Alexander would snap at her.

"You need to burn my tongue, huh! Incompetent! Get some water!" Alexander cursed, annoyed. His wife forgot to put cold water in the drink she made.

Jennifer returned to the kitchen. She got water for Alexander. Within ten minutes, she was up and down the stairs twice. It made her legs sore.

"I need to take a shower!" Jennifer said before Alexander could order her then.

This time, Jennifer did not forget to make her pajama towels. Only once did she fail to bring a towel into the bath it wouldn't be repeating.

Jennifer prolongs her bathing ritual tonight. It took her longer to stretch her body muscles because she was alone with Alexander.

Jennifer finished bathing, wearing white satin pajamas. Then, she came out of the bath.

Jennifer sat at the dressing table, combing her hair and applying moisturizer on her face. She tried to remember the marriage rules.

'Dressed sexy and beautiful already, one more is missing!' Jennifer thought

Then Jennifer was laying down on the bed.

"Honey," Jennifer called.

Alexander took a quick glance and went backward to busy with his laptop.

"Tonight, we're going to do that, right?" Jennifer asked.

"Do not be noisy! Can't you see I'm working?" Alexander snapped.

Jennifer locked her lips. She changed her position on his side. There was no hope for her to go to the shop tomorrow morning.

Then Jennifer fell asleep.

At 23:17, Alexander finished his activities in front of the laptop. He turned it off and stuffed it into his briefcase.

Then, he saw Jennifer, who was sleeping on his rear. He could see Jennifer's beautiful and seductive chest. The more obvious because the woman was not wearing a bra. Alexander turned his gaze the other way. He didn't want to be tempted. It's still too soon.

The man swallowed hard, suppressing the desire. He wanted to do something, but held it in. At least he should be able to restrain himself. This was all just the beginning.
