Romancing Dominance [BL][COMPLETED]

chapter 21 | romancing dominance

Walking around the mansion of Buenavistas, I find it tiring. The whole place screams wealth and dynasty—a whole dynasty of the Buenavistas generation.

Walking around, I saw different angles of life that unfolded here.

The maids said that the mansion was constantly renovated every generation to suit the taste of the new family.

No wonder why the place screams gold, antiquity, and white since the mansion was made for Tita Wana's exquisite taste.

Maybe this was the reason why Jakob prefers the ranch and the fields because the mansion is too much for him.

When in this place, he is no ordinary man, he can't be the Jakob—the farmer Jakob.

Inside the walls of this mansion, Jakob is one of the wealthiest people in Maraya.

Naalala ko kung paano ko unang nakita si Jakob. From the very beginning he showed me who he really is. I know he intended something else when famer Jakob showed up.

He intends me to see the real him, perhaps I was afraid of him, but not because I was scared or disgusted of his chosen lifestyle, no, I was afraid for the first time because I know, I am nothing compared to him.

Jakob may be dressed as a farmer but it will never take away his real profile.

"If I only knew I would be tamed by a kind, down-to-earth man, I would probably laugh."

I have my fair share of luxury so this is not new to me, though our mansion in the city is more of a home than this museum-like mansion.

One time, Jakob made mentioned having a simple house.

A home that would fit our family and I liked it.

I imagined a soft home, with not too much.

Is there such a thing as too much?

Yes. Looking at all the humungous oil paintings in the music room of this mansion made me think it was too much.

Looking at it made me see how long has this mansion been here. It has stood all throughout, just like the family who made it—the Buenavista.

Wala akong kasama habang naglilibot sa buong paligid.

Tito and Tita are expecting a visitor tonight and they are busy preparing.

The twins and their sister are at school while my precious man is in one of the BFTC warehouses.

Jakob made mentioned going there because he needs to personally check it together with his friend engineer, Mr. Garcia, the one I met at the municipal hall.

He insisted to go with him but I don't want to overwhelm the workers there.

One time when I visited one of its plantations, people gossiped and talked about me the whole time I was there, so I made an effort to not bother.

There is something in their stares that I can't fathom. Tila may tinatago silang 'di malaman-laman.

What is it? What is it that I don't know?

I should not be overthinking it. I should probably get my head out of these mindless thoughts, rather I should be thinking about tonight's dinner.

Speaking of, I remember that the mayor Cyrell Yu is invited to tonight's dinner. The formal dinner we will be hosting for our engagement.

I expected Jakob to oppose when Tita Wana made the invite to the mayor but he was okay with it.

Maybe the last time we talk made sense to him.
