The arched windows in the cream-colored outer walls were so transparent that it was questionable whether they had glass, and the narrow sky-blue roof above had detailed statues at every corner. It looked so beautiful against the clean sky.
“Oh, my God, am I going to work in a place like this?”
Brad looked around in disbelief. He seemed to not care even if he was scolded for being tacky. But Liv was just as surprised as Brad, so she couldn’t make fun of his reaction.
The mansion was huge. Given that there was nothing but green gardens and a vast plain around the standing mansion, it was probably one of the villas the Marquis had. She thought it wouldn’t be strange for the sensitive marquis who didn’t socialize with anyone to have such a remote villa.
No, in fact, Liv didn’t even know if this was a remote villa. This was because she couldn’t look at the outside scenery at all throughout the trip.
It could be a private property in the city.
Brad and her, who were dragged to an unknown place.
Liv suddenly remembered the lame conversation she had with Millian. All the dark groundless rumors about the Marquis, which she had taken lightly at the time.
Seems like it would be easy to kill and hide someone in a place like this…
Since all the employees residing in the mansion were all the Marquis’s people, no one would know no matter what happened to Brad and Liv here.
For example, getting taxidermied.
The thought sent goosebumps down her spine. For some reason, the Marquis’ nonchalant gaze scanning her bare back came to mind at that moment. At that time, The Marquis seemed to be judging her more as a product than as a person.
Wouldn’t he have those eyes when he saw the stuffed objects?
“What’s wrong, Liv?”
Liv came to her senses in an instant at Brad’s questioning voice. Before she knew it, Brad, who was way ahead of her, was looking down at her from the stairs. When the two stopped, the servant who was walking ahead guiding them also stopped and looked at the two.
Liv, seeing Brad’s mysterious gaze and the indifferent gaze of the servant behind him, walked hurriedly. As she quickly climbed the hard stone steps and caught up with Brad, the servant turned around again.
The door to the beautiful grand mansion slowly opened. Beyond it was a colorfully decorated interior. Upon hearing the news of their visit in advance, the workers stood on both sides to greet the guests.
She felt like she was going into the mouth of a snake that was tempting its prey, camouflaging itself in luxurious and colorful colors. Looking at everything that glittered so much that her eyes hurt, Liv subconsciously pushed down the rushing anxiety.
The sound of the door being closed behind her back was heavy.

When she undressed in Brad’s studio, she always shivered because of the cold air.
She had gotten used to the lower temperatures over time, so she was pretty comfortable now, but at first she was shivering from the cold. Especially in winter, there was a time she came back from modeling with a bad cold.
Brad’s studio had severe drafts and no heating. Brad’s wife didn’t like her husband spending so much time in his studio, so she didn’t want to spend a dime on renovating it.
Although Brad was a painter, his wife was the one who took care of the household instead of him, whose earnings were meager. Perhaps the reason Brad was using the money from the sale of the painting in such a hurry was because he was afraid that the insignificant amount of income would be taken away by his wife.
Anyway, Liv had nothing to do with someone else’s family situation. The important thing was that his studio environment was very poor.
That was why she compared it to this place even more.
“Oh, my God! Such a vivid color! And look at this soft brush tip!”
Brad’s mouth let out a series of exclamations.
Even to Liv, who didn’t know much about painting tools, all the supplies prepared here looked excellent. Brad looked at each of the painting tools given to him almost as if he were about to faint.
His admiration did not stop even when he sat in front of the canvas. Liv stood in front of the canvas, half resigned. Even though it wasn’t as much as Brad, she was also genuinely surprised by this great studio. There was no need to mention the sofa or bed she would sit on, they were all the best furniture.
What surprised her, however, was that the air in the studio was warmer than expected.
She didn’t know well, but Brad often said that painting is a very sensitive work, which is greatly influenced by temperature and humidity. He even added a grumble to his wife who didn’t understand that and wouldn’t spend a penny on the studio. Liv couldn’t express her dissatisfaction with the cold air in the studio because of that.
This place was certainly warmer than Brad’s studio. It was so unfamiliar that Liv rubbed her exposed forearm slowly. She got goosebumps even though it wasn’t cold.
“I told the servants to prepare the studio so that it doesn’t interfere with the work. Do you need anything else?”
