The freezing air swept through Jennie as quickened her steps towards the car waiting for them in the port. She clutched her coat tighter, hoping that it will somehow ease the cold.

"Here," Lisa gave her an extra coat. She eyed the man walking next to her and accepted the coat without saying anything. After a few seconds, they get into the car and immediately started their trip towards her grandfather's house.

"When was the last time that you visited this place?" Lisa asked her.

"Hmmm... I went only once. It was three or four years ago. I forgot." She said and stifled a yawn.

"You need to sleep."

"Hmmm..." she nodded and close her eyes. Jennie did not sleep all throughout the five-hour flight. "Do want to tell me something?" she asked when she noticed Lisa being tense all throughout the Yacht ride.

"It is December." Lisa stated. A sigh escaped his lips.

"I know."

"You said, there will be fewer tourists because of the snow."

"Yes, that is right."

"Well... a certain people of the royalty was staying near the cabin."

Jennie instantly opened her eyes and lifted an eyebrow. "From what country?"

"Guess what?"

"Luxembourg?" She looked at him. "Really?"

"Apparently, the Great Duke and Duchess, spent their Christmas in Skopelos with their children and their family." Lisa answered.

Jennie pursed her lips in response before she leaned against him and close her eyes. Her grandfather was once a royalty in Luxembourg. However, because of love, he abandoned being a prince in the country. After this, his younger brother because the Grand Duke or the Monarch. Now, however, the Grand Duke already passed away because of an unfortunate accident, leaving his son for the position.

"They have houses in Skopelos." She uttered. "Just like my grandfather."

"Hmmm... Seulgi told me about it. Luxembourg had a very good economy lately. I mean... not the best, but their growth is consistent."

"That is true. I seldom read anything about them. I have no interest in branching out in that place. They are not interesting enough." Jennie knew Lisa's intention in saying those words. However, branching out in a place like that is not of her plans. This was because according to her grandmother, the previous Grand Duke or her grandfather's father was an absolute monarch.

He was a no nonsense man who valued prestige and their name above everything else. While she did not tell her the specific reason why her grandfather was removed from their ancestral books, she had mention a lot of time that it was because of her.

The thought of her grandmother and grandfather's love for each other made her smile. A man willing to leave his royal ties just to be with the woman that he love was just admirable. Especially when the Facci Group was not that big when it happened.

"Hey." Jennie nudged Lisa.

"Hm?"

"If you are a royalty somewhere... let's say you are a prince. And your people will tell you to divorce me so you can become the king... will you do it?"

"Of course not!" he answered almost instantly.

"What if it's the richest country in the world?"

"Nope."

"Why?" she asked.

"Why not?" his answer immediately earned a glare from his wife. He chuckled. "I am already a king in our kingdom."
