This luxury villa on Marwell Islands was bought by Lucas Knight, who had it prepared in advance, and now they can move in directly.

Due to the long journey, she slept the whole way, so she must be hungry. Lucas had the servants prepare meals, and after arriving at the villa, she took a quick shower and went downstairs to the living room to eat.

The chef here is the most experienced on Marwell Islands and is highly regarded in the industry for his delicious cooking, and now he has become Eva Nightingale’s personal chef.

"President, Madam, we won’t disturb you!" The group of servants, wisely aware, politely withdrew after speaking.

Lucas Knight’s sharp gaze glanced over them, and he said, "Wait."

The servants paused, turned around, and politely asked, "Sir, do you have any other instructions?"

"Just call me Mister from now on." Lucas Knight came here to accompany his beloved young wife on a vacation and didn’t want to be constantly addressed as President, which felt awkward and added a sense of formality.

"Yes, Mister!" The servants respectfully responded and sensibly withdrew, leaving Mister and Madam to their private time.

After dinner, Eva was caught by the cunning boss and dragged to the garden pool.

"No, I don’t want to..."

"I’m so scared..."

"Don’t be afraid." Lucas Knight embraced her, sitting on the vintage chaise lounge by the pool, and said, "As Emperor Grand Group’s Young Madam, you will have many opportunities to bathe with me in the future, so how can you be afraid of water?"

"No." She hugged him, feeling a wave of pain in her head.

"Listen to me, the water is only 1.2 meters deep, it’s okay, trust me. Take a deep breath and walk in yourself." His unprecedented patience shone through. He had indeed changed a lot since they got married, treating her like a precious treasure. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"With me here, I won’t let anything happen to you. Be brave, okay?"

He didn’t want her to have such an obvious weakness. Being his wife meant basking in endless glory and envy but also becoming a target for many. Did she know that?

If someone with ill intentions targeted her when he wasn’t around, he would feel devastated if anything happened to her!

"Be good, I don’t want you to cause me any trouble in the meantime!" Even though he didn’t mind those troubles.

Lucas Knight was actually puzzled as to why she was so afraid of water?!

Could it be related to something?

Or perhaps.

He asked, "Did you almost drown before... were you badly scared?"

"I don’t know..." Eva had always been afraid of the sea since she could remember. Even seeing a small swimming pool would make her legs weak, as if she had a psychological shadow, similar to acrophobia. Just one glance would terrify her. She was so daring, not afraid of even venomous snakes, yet she feared the sea alone.

Coincidentally, Marwell Islands are surrounded by vast oceans...

"Tomorrow, we will go to the seaside," he said. "You must be brave; water isn’t as scary as you think, trust me." He was determined to help her overcome her fear of the sea.

"I’ll try..." Eva said, standing up.

It was eight o’clock at night, surrounded by brilliant lights of various colors, creating a very atmospheric setting.

She wore a sexy bikini with a thin layer of sheer fabric draped over it, feeling cool and breezy, but it made his gaze deep and alluring.

"Ah..."

"I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, I’m dizzy!"

As she prepared to step into the water, she returned, terrified, making Lucas both amused and helpless.
