The wedding proceeded smoothly . Chamberlain acted as expected, as for his bride, she was a ball of nerves all through the ceremony .
Whilst they entertained guests, both their fathers had more important matters to attend to . With the unification of their families, their ties were further strengthened .
Chamberlain knew his father was holding a secret meeting but he was not aware of the parties involved .
Like a robot, he moved around with his wife, greeting guests while accepting their well-wishes . Returning a word of grat.i.tude or two from time to time .
To him, it was no different than the social gatherings and parties he was used to attending . The only thing different was the fact that he now had a wife who was clinging to his arm .
…
Inside a room at the venue of the wedding, five men were presently seated . Charles Stan, Mr . Hansberry, a man who appears to be a foreigner and two other unknown persons .
The meeting was a secret known to none other than those directly involved . No one was aware of their presence .
They snuck into the hotel a few days before the wedding at different times, wearing different disguises .
Apart from Charles Stan and Mr . Hansberry who were dressed for the wedding, the other three appeared to be common citizens without backgrounds .

The atmosphere was harmonious as they spoke unhurriedly while playing a game of chess . Of course, they spoke in codes, the chess board was used in communicating their plans . So it did not matter if their conversation was being recorded or not .
One can never be too careful .
After trading chess pieces for a while, Charles Stan and Mr . Hansberry returned to the wedding . Not long after the foreigner left the venue whereas the other two persons stayed behind to enjoy tea .
…
After the wedding, the couple returned to their room for their first night .
Lena who had been endlessly teased by her friends earlier was a bit tensed when they got to their room .
The decorations wasn't too elaborate, it was the standard red roses scattered on the bed and the floor .
They both stood by the stood, a few minutes of awkward silence went by .
Lena glanced at Chamberlain before averting her eyes quickly . The she lowered her head but she couldn't conceal how shy and embarra.s.sed she was, as her ears were a dark red .
She had no idea what to do or how to act as she felt so awkward . Her eyes found the bathroom so she spoke up, "Let me use the bathroom, I'll be out soon . "
Lena left hastily, she had to be prepared for her first time . Being sweaty was a turn off for her so she wanted to take a quick shower and also calm her nerves .
Chamberlain briefly looked at her before kicking off his shoes .
While she was gone, her husband took off his suit and changed into his pyjamas before slumping down to the bed .
He was dead tired after socializing for hours . Intentionally or not, he fell asleep as quickly as he hit the bed .
When Lena came out, she was surprised to see her husband sleeping . For a moment her eyes lowered in disappointment . She reminded herself that it was normal to be tired after having an eventful day .
May be not every couple became intimate on their first night…
Consoling herself, she dressed up and joined him .
. . .
The next morning when Chamberlain woke up, he found his wife in his arms .
Albeit shocked, he gently moved her aside before heading to the bathroom .
There was seemingly no need to rashly shove her aside . Besides, from the position he found himself, it was apparent he was the one embracing her and not the other way round .
After showering, he returned to the room to see Lena awake, sitting with a tray of food .
She smiled warmly at him, "I ordered breakfast, let's eat . "
Chamberlain took in the scene before him then slowly nodded .
He saw no reason to reject her good intention . Thus, he sat next to her and they ate quietly .
…
"We got a bigger house for you both and your things have been moved already . So you can directly head there from the airport . " Chamberlain's mother began .
She continued, "Ben will take you there . "
"Excuse us, Lena . " She said .
Lena politely responded, "Yes, mother . " Concurrently, she went towards her friends waiting for her gist about her first night .
Rose Stan inquired, "So, How are you, really?"
She was well aware of the fact that her son was not comfortable with the marriage . As a parent, she wanted the best for her son . She had never seen him close to any woman .
Previously, she was concerned about his s.e.xuality but then, he had never been close to any man either .
She was certain he only agreed to this marriage to please them .
"I'm fine mother . " He gave her a comforting smile .
His mother nodded, then she turned to observe Lena . "She's a good woman . Be happy, that's all I want . "
Chamberlain turned to look at Lena too . She was busy chatting with her friends when one of them glanced at her and then at Chamberlain . Lena found his eyes, then she smiled warmly at him before averting her gaze . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
