Little Cute Wife
Chapter 74 The Honor

It seemed like that she had a long dream where she was holding her sons happily...

Then she woke up with a smile...

When she opened her eyes and a woman who was plumb came into her sight.

"Morning, Miss."

Jessica was in a great shock.

She subconsciously looked around and found no one else but she was in the room, then she said, "Sorry, are you talking to me?"

"Yes, Miss." The woman smiled at her politely. "I am the housekeeper of the castle, you can call me Janet."

The castle? Jessica was totally awake.

She jumped off the bed and stepped on the soft mat barefoot.

"The castle is owned by Louis Carter?" She rushed to the balcony and opened the window.

There was a blue river with the color bluer than Jade and shinier than sapphire outside the window. It was more like a painting that even a master might not able to draw. With the sunlight, the river was shining and the ripples were like the naughty children who were jumping.

On the sides of the river, there were some castles. It was obvious that this was a place where the rich people were gathering.

"Yes." Janet answered respectfully and explained, "Miss, the river now you are seeing is Paso River. Sir has told me that you can tour round when you wake up."

"Really?" Jessica was in a good mood though it was her first time traveling to Barcelona which was filled with an Architectural atmosphere, "Then where is Louis?"

Janet misunderstood that Jessica would like to ask Louis to accompany her then she chimed hurriedly, "every time sir comes here, he is always so busy. Where do you want to go, Miss? I will ask the driver to take you there."

"You mean that guy, Louis often come here?" Jessica was a bit surprised and she always thought that people like him who was so cool would never travel around expect staying at the office or having any business trip.

Janet's eyebrows slightly furrowed and said, "I've been working as a housekeeper in this castle for 30 years. Though Miss you are the first female friend Sir takes back to the castle, and no matter what relationship Sir and Miss are, but please show your respect to Sir."

Obviously, Janet wasn't happy with what Jessica said.

Jessica was shocked and remarked, "thirty years?"

She did feel a bit excited when she heard that she was the first female friend Louis took back to the castle.

Janet nodded slightly and chimed, "when I was a kid, I began to serve Madam. The castle was the heritage from Madam's mother. Sir inherits the castle after Madam passed away."

"The Madam you are talking about is Mr. Carter's mom?" Jessica called Louis "Mr." instead of his first name. And this was the first time for her to hear something about Louis's mom.

"Yes." Janet looked serious when she mentioned Louis's mom. And then she became soft and chimed, "Madam is a very good person, but..."

"But?" Jessica recalled the day when Louis called Benjamin Carter's wife "aunt Shirley" and then she had a hunch that in Louis's heart, his mom meant so important to him and no one could replace her. Janet had a look at Jessica but she sighed and said, "Miss, you can get cleaned up now. I've made the breakfast, come downstairs and have a meal later."

Then she walked out of the room.

Jessica was born an optimist to some extend or she was deceiving herself that she was.

Or she might lose any hope towards life after going through so many hardships.

Jason might inherit that from her and he was more optimistic than Jessica.

Even though Jessica was confused that why Louis insisted to take her to Barcelona when he knew that she was helping the Wilson to get the "Shine Project", and she was puzzled that why he took her to the castle where his mom lived when she was alive, she still enjoyed the days in Barcelona

She took a shower quickly and went downstairs barefoot to have breakfast.

However, she didn't see Louis in such a huge castle.

In front of the big dining table, she was the one who was devouring like a wolf.

Janet was serving her on her side respectfully.

"Mm, Janet, the cakes you made are so tasty!"

"Miss, this is called Tortilla-De-Patata. It's the special in Spain. Sir likes it too."

But Jessica though it was just something like an omelet.

Fine, she didn't know Spanish but whatever. She knew that was tasty, that's all. "Wow, that's excellent!"

"This is Chorizo. I will always prepare some for Sir when he is back here."

However, Jessica thought it was just nothing but beef sausage.

She was eating the sausage and the omelet and got a bit annoyed since Janet was telling her the food in Spanish.

But she was curious that Janet kept mentioning Louis.

"Janet, it seems that Mr. Carter really knows how to enjoy his life. You said that I am the first female friend he takes back to the castle. Didn't he take any other girls back here?"

Janet had a glance at her and replied, "He didn't.”

Actually, she was in great shock when she saw Jessica was in Louis's arms. She knew that Louis was composed and quiet since he was a kid. And she thought that he might not get married in his whole life. So she was greatly shocked When she saw Jessica.

Jessica was wide-eyed and blurted out, "Has Brenda come here before?"

"Brenda? Who is she?" Janet had no idea.

Jessica murmured but she didn't dare to say too much about Brenda so she kept having breakfast.

She was a bit excited when she heard that. Brenda hadn't come here before even though she had been in a relationship with Louis for ten years.

She had such an honor to be here even though she just knew Louis for a few months.

But...

When she peeked at Janet who looked a bit serious and thought about the Madam who passed away already, she felt the cold shiver running down her spine... Jessica was wandering around the castle the whole day.

But she didn't get in the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor since the room was locked.

Janet had told her that, "never get in the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor or Sir will be mad and you have to suffer the consequence yourself."

The sun set.

After mealtime, Jessica hid in the room and calling Jason and Matthew.

She felt relieved when she knew they were fine.

She leaned against the window and gazed at the Paso River with the sunset.

The water was flowing, and it was so peaceful. Under the afterglow of the sunset, she could feel a mysterious vitality beyond words. The feeling was so profound.

Unconsciously, she went downstairs with a light step and ran to the lawn by the river bank...

When Louis was back in the castle, he saw such a scene.

In front of the medieval castle and on the green lawn by the river, there was a woman in a light purple dress with her hair lying at her back was dancing barefoot under the soft sunlight. The breeze was blowing her hair and her hemline. She was dancing and smiling like a fairy...

Louis couldn't help walking closer to her quietly...

"Mr. Carter!"

Jessica went blank for a second and stopped dancing.

She was a bit flurried when Louis suddenly showed up.

She couldn't help dancing herself when she was attracted by the beautiful scenery of the Paso River.

"Nice dance." Louis raised his lips a bit and under the light, his cool face looked a bit softer. "But, why you are calling me Mr. Cater?" He was a bit unhappy when he heard how she addressed him. "Janet asks me to show my respect to you, Mr. Carter." She shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "Why? Feeling it so strange? Or Mr. Carter likes someone calling him asshole?"

He was silent with his eyebrow raised.

Then he walked straight to her and took out a wooden box from his pocket.

He opened the box and took out a necklace.

Jessica was greatly surprised and he helped her buckle the necklace around her neck.

"What is this?" She zoned out for a second and she found that the necklace was already around her neck.

She touched the pedant

subconsciously. It was something

like mental in the shape of the string with the edges ground off, so it was smooth. Though it didn't look like any treasure, it was special. Under the sunlight, the pedant would be shining.

At the end of the pedant, there carved two letters "V" and "Q".

His lips slightly pursed and his fingers rubbed through her neck but he didn't answer her question but said in a bossy manner, "Never take it off without my permission."

"Hey, but fine. At least you should tell me what this is." Jessica shouted at him and chimed, "it's OK if it can expel the evil spirit, but if it doesn't..."

"Shut up!" Louis turned around coolly and he was a bit angry because he sent her a necklace with goodwill but Jessica used it to expel the evil spirit. Then he said in a low voice, "get ready, I will take you to the downtown."

Then he left without looking at her.

Jessica could feel that he was a bit mad at her.

She touched the pendant but she still had no idea what "V" and "Q" meant.

She thought that if he gave her something like diamonds or Jewelry, she could sell it and get some money. He even could give her a jade that she could use it to expel the evil spirits. However, such a mental necklace was useless to her.

So, he had no reason to be mad at her.

At night, the driver drove them to downtown.

Barcelona waş known as a city for

people having parties in Europe.

Every Friday and Saturday night, it was the most bustling day in a week. There were bars, cafes, clubs

around the Libor, Diego and Montel...

People could have fun at those płaces until 2 or 3 am or even had

fun the whole night."
