Your fiancée and her parents were arriving in an hour. All preparations had been made, and you could now rest before having to support your future half for the rest of the evening. You only had your goals in mind, bothering yourself with a fiancée really wasn't useful. Her main asset is that she is part of an influential family who could finance you in your various companies. How convenient.

You stepped into the mother-of-pearl bathtub, slowly squatting in the warm water up to your shoulders. Only your head stuck out as you were buried under layers of bubbles and rose petals, the prominent scent of different flowers filling your nostrils. Daily baths were probably your favorite part of your hard routine as a young Earl.

"How is the temperature? Hot enough?"

Sebastian asked as he stood nearby, ready to help you bathe like he always would. As always, your butler couldn't leave you alone. You've gotten used to him following you everywhere now. Despite his intrusive presence while you were 'vulnerable', you couldn't wait for your daily head and shoulders massage from him either. Sebastian too was looking forward to it.
