Chapter 36: Call Her Mrs. Wilson
The car stopped at the entrance of the his family's villa.
Wilson opened the car door for Alina courteously. Alina may have appeared to be smiling, but only she knew, she was extremely nervous at this moment.
Although she had been exposed to the rich and wealthy while she was in a relationship with Ken, the Scott Family's villa trumped them all. It was so much grander than any other mansion she had seen before. "Nervous?" Wilson saw through Alina's anxiety with a glance.
"A little!" Alina replied honestly.
Wilson smiled when he saw her nervousness. He reached out to hold her hand and said, "Relax, just act as you did at the banquet. You'll be fine!"
"Alright." Alina nodded. She muttered under her breath to calm herself down, "Okay, Alina, it's not a big deal. Just be natural, you are playing the role of a good wife. This is all a show, none of it is real. The luxury and grandeur before you are just props in the show."
"I will answer any questions from my family if I am able to. Don't feel burdened and leave it to me." Wilson added. "Alright!" Alina nodded, telling herself to not be nervous. However, her palms had already started to sweat.
"Good evening, Mr. Wilson!" The butler and servants greeted Wilson when they saw him.
Wilson nodded and informed the staff, "She's my wife, call her Mrs. Wilson!"
Alina was sweating bullets. Why did she feel as if he was going too fast?
The butler and the servants greeted her in unison, "Good evening, Mrs. Wilson!"
Alina became more tensed but she showed her usual charming smile and nodded at them. Although she felt extremely uncomfortable to be called Mrs. Wilson, it was a basic courtesy to acknowledge them with a smile.
"Good job!" Wilson bent down and whispered in her ear.
"Thank you!" Alina smiled awkwardly.
Wilson smiled in return and led Alina to the dining hall.
The dining hall in the villa was divided into the main hall and several smaller rooms. The main hall was rarely used because it was too huge. The long dining table was filled with more than sixty dishes, but it still looked bare.
The main hall would only be used during family gatherings or when guests came over.
Usually, the whole family would have their meals in separate rooms. George and his family had a room to themselves, Wilson's family in another, and Lincoln himself in another. The rest of the rooms were for the servants and family doctors.
From this arrangement, it could be seen that George's family and Wilson's family were not on good terms. This problem had troubled Lincoln for a long time.
At this moment, Lincoln was already waiting at the main hall in high spirits.
He smiled kindly when he saw Wilson and Alina arrive. "You are home!"
"Yes." Wilson nodded and pulled Alina over. "This is my grandfather, Lincoln Scott!"
Alina turned to Lincoln and beamed widely. She greeted him with respect, "Good evening, Mr. Lincoln!"
"Alright, come and have a seat. The dishes will be served soon!" Lincoln invited them to the table.
Sure enough, just as he said before, he trusted in Wilson's judgement. As long as Wilson approved of her, Lincoln would like her as well. At first glance, Lincoln already had a good impression of Alina. This young lady had clear and innocent eyes.
"Grandfather, we're back too!" Wilson's cousins, Lucas and Colton said in unison.
Alina turned and saw two tall, handsome young men walk into the hall. Following closely beside them were two attractive and beautiful women.
"This is my elder cousin, Lucas. The other one is my younger cousin, Colton." Wilson introduced them to Alina.
"Hello, nice to meet you!" Alina greeted them with a smile.
"Likewise," Lucas and Colton replied. After that, they led their girlfriends to the table and sat down.
Wilson held Alina's hand and took a seat beside her. Subsequently, Wilson's parents and sister came in. Wilson introduced them to Alina. "This is my father, my mother, and my younger sister, Silvia. This is Alina."
Alina greeted his family graciously, "Nice to meet you, Uncle, Aunty, and Silvia!"
"Good evening, Alina!" Silvia was all smiles.
Wilson's parents had a good first impression of Alina. They smiled and nodded in acknowledgement before taking their seats.000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
