Suzy stared at the grand mansion in front of her, speechless at its magnificence. This place was humongous, and her family estate looked dwarf compared to Jackson's mansion.
She couldn't believe that she would be staying at this place. No wonder Jackson easily agreed to her manager's condition, because even if they were living in the same estate, it was almost impossible for them to run to each other, given how huge the place was.
"Are you sure you will be okay on your own, Miss Bae?" Seulgi asked as she unloaded Suzy's luggage from the trunk of the car.
"I'll be fine. Thanks for driving me here, Seulgi." She smiled at her manager's assistant. After years of knowing Jennie and the Kang sisters, they had become the most important people in her life. Friends she knew she could rely on and would always have her back.
"Well, I'm not really sure why you volunteered to help Mr. Wang, but I hope you'll be able to come back better after this. If you need some help and don't know how to do the tasks delegated to you, give me a call, okay? I don't want you to get stressed when you should be enjoying your short break." Seulgi commented. She knew that Suzy was having trouble lately due to the trauma she suffered from the recent events.
Jennie was also hoping that with Suzy's two-week off, she would be able to sort her thoughts and make up her mind on how they should deal with her younger sister. As for Jackson's interest in Suzy, Jennie thought that her talent was old enough to decide how to deal with an admirer.
"Thanks, Seulgi. I'll keep that in mind." Suzy grinned, as she saw the vast lawn in front of the mansion. She then wondered how many people lived in this huge place.
They left the car in the driveway and Suzy dragged her luggage with Seulgi walking next to her. Just by looking at the mansion was already making Suzy feel insecure with her outfit. She was just wearing a pair of denim pants and white sleeveless blouse and a pair of comfy sneakers.
The massive front door opened, and they were greeted by a tall man, who had a posture so straight and expression so stiff, it reminded Jennie of the headmaster of the school she used to attend. He had thick silvery hair and a slightly crooked high nose with a pair of spectacles resting over its bridge.
"Good morning." The man spoke and gave Suzy a good look, clearly recognizing her. "Master Wang is expecting your arrival. I suppose you've already received his itinerary for the next two weeks?"
"Yes. I gave it a good look last night." Suzy nodded, her hand tightening on the strap of her shoulder bag. She didn't understand why she was feeling nervous in front of the man. Even when she had paid Jennie a visit yesterday, she kept her distance from Lisa and Song Yiran as their presence was making her nervous.
"I am the butler of this household, and you can call me, Elder Meng." His eyes then shifted to Seulgi, not expecting Suzy to bring some company today. "And this is?"
"Good morning, Elder Meng. I'm Kang Seulgi . I'm under the Manoban family's employment."
The old man's brows shot up upon hearing her answer, but he didn't comment on it. After a long moment, he stepped aside and let both women in
"Please come in and let me show you your room." He extended his arm, gesturing for both women to enter the mansion.
Two household helpers came and took Suzy's luggage from her as the trio walked up the stairs. Suzy admired the dual staircase that greeted her and the expensive looking crystal chandelier that was hanging in between the staircases. She briefly wondered why it was built that way.
As she looked around, she noticed how spacious the foyer was. It was as large as any banquet halls she had seen before.
'Perhaps, Mr. Wang hosts parties here once in a while.'
