Lust Contracts 18+ Hunting for Love with My Three Contract Husbands - Chapter 113
113 Family Estate Visit
I smiled and nodded at him thankfully. Not knowing what was in store for me for tomorrow, I felt slightly nervous, but I tried to stay optimistic about everything. There’s supposed to be a very thin line between nervousness and excitement. If I worked myself up the right way, I could end up feeling excited about facing the unknowns of tomorrow.
As agreed with Brandon, I met him at his office and from there he would drive us to one of his family estates where we would be meeting his parents. I had to admit that I didn’t manage to work myself up the right way. Overall, I still dreaded meeting his parents and visiting his family estate. However, this was part of my job, and I knew that I had to suck it up and get it done.
“You’re right on time,” Brandon said as a way of greeting me.
He was leaning against his luxury sportscar, and I wondered how long he had been waiting for me. I offered him a smile and he gestured for me to take the passenger seat. I followed him to the passenger side of the car, and he opened the door for me to get in.
“Thank you…” I whispered before lowering myself onto the car seat.
“We might have to hurry a little. I want to get there in time for lunch,” Brandon said before closing the car’s door.
He got in the driver’s seat, and we were on our way to our destination. Brandon seemed well rested, and he seemed to be in an unusually good mood. This didn’t make much sense to me because I found it hard to imagine that Brandon was looking forward to seeing his parents. If my memories served me right, Brandon didn’t get along that well with his father, but his mother always treated him overly well. His father was strict and wanted Brandon to inherit their family business and run it right.
“Are we having lunch with your parents?” I asked as a sense of dread filled me.
“That’s right. They requested for it. I guess they can’t wait to meet you…” Brandon said with his eyes on the road.
…..
“Do you have any idea what they want from us?” I asked, getting right to the point.
“A child,” he replied bluntly.
Rich and prominent families wanting to assure their line of succession wasn’t an unusual thing and neither were parents wanting to see their child have children of their own so that they could become grandparents. I had expected this but to hear it so bluntly still made me feel uneasy. Of course, Brandon and I were not in a real relationship so making a baby was definitely out of the question.
“I see. So, what are we supposed to tell them?” I asked.
“If they ask, just tell them that you’re looking forward to having my baby,” Brandon replied like it was nothing.
“Right…” I murmured.
Just as I had already suspected, this meeting with his parents wasn’t going to be a walk in the park. Since there was nothing that I could do about it at this point, I decided to enjoy the ride and Brandon’s company for the time being.
Brandon was right on the estimation of our arrival time. We arrived at his family estate just about on time for lunch. I had never been to his family estate before even during the time that we were dating, and he didn’t like to talk much about it or his family for that matter. Although I was prepared for something massive and over-the-top like some mansion hidden in the mountains, I was still astounded by the sheer size and beauty of the place. The estate was located on a mountain which was entirely owned by Brandon’s family.
The mansion sat on top of the mountain surrounded by large beautifully decorated gardens. On the outer layer beyond the gardens were grass fields where there were farms and horses. Brandon acted like a perfect tour guide as he explained to me the various sights along the way to the mansion. It was quite unlike him to be so talkative, but I did appreciate his effort to keep me informed and entertained.
Brandon parked the car right in front of the mansion and we were immediately greeted by an old man with grey hair who was dressed in a professional butler suit. I could tell by how polite the man was that he must be very experienced.
“Master Brandon and Miss Elena, we’ve been expecting you. Welcome home,” the old man said with a polite bow.
“Thank you,” Brandon replied.
I felt the warmth of Brandon’s hand on mine as he casually took my hand into his and held it firmly. I glanced over at him and wondered if he was feeling a little nervous or if he was just trying to reassure me. It was probably the latter because I found it hard to believe that Brandon would ever feel nervous.
“I have already prepared a bedroom for you and Miss Elena as you have instructed. I am honored to welcome you here at this estate, Master Brandon,” the old butler said before bowing respectfully.
A bedroom?! For us?!
I looked at Brandon with wide eyes as I silently demanded for an answer. This was the first time that I’ve heard anything about us spending the night. I thought we would come here and then had back at the end of the day and what was this about us sharing a bedroom?
Brandon must have noticed the look that I shot his way because he grinned at me before his hand dropped from the small of my back to caress my ass. With a polite smile plastered on my lips, I slapped his offending hand away from my buttocks.
“Thank you. I’m sure that we’ll enjoy our stay,” Brandon replied casually.
It felt like we were staying at a luxury hotel more than one of his family estates which was supposed to be his house or home. Brandon seemed used to this type of treatment, and I wasn’t surprised.
