Arranged Wife.

.

.

For the very first time in a while, Mason was glad to wake up and this was mostly because he was not waking up as the poor boy he used to be, but as the owner of the best treasure in the world. Not only was he the owner of the best treasure in the world but he was also the leader of the strongest family.

With so much wealth and power in his hands, there was only one thing Mason wanted to do and that was to flaunt his wealth and relax. He wanted to enjoy himself as much as possible since he was now rich but life was a sucker that still had to mess up his plans.

Even though he was now rich, he quickly realized that he can’t reveal his identity just yet. Hearing from the Jinni that people would want to take his life to get his ring made him cautious. After all, he doesn’t know any of these people that will be after his ring so revealing himself to the world will only increase his chances of not enjoying his inheritance for too long.

Mason was quick to realize that if he wants to enjoy himself, his enjoyment will have to wait. He has to take his time to identify all his enemies before they identify him and his first step will be to find his arranged wife.

“This arranged wife of mine…where can I find her?” Mason asked while lying on the soft bed in the luxurious room like he did not wish to get out of it.

“Hmm…Nice question...” The Jinni smiled as she heard Mason’s second question right after waking up.

She was lying on the soft bed with Mason but the space between both him and her was big enough to show that there was nothing intimate between them.

She had to admit that she was happy to witness this action from Mason. She has had so many masters in her past and she knew for a fact that most people would instantly start to be selfish by thinking about all the wishes they want before thinking of something this important. However, Mason was different. He asked about the arranged wife he was not happy to hear about.

Mason could’ve taken a break to enjoy his new lifestyle for a few days or even a month before he starts to sort out his problems but here he is asking for his problems way too early.

“..but I don’t understand?” The Jinni asked with curious eyes even when there was still a smile on her face. “Don’t you want to enjoy your new privileges before you start to solve your new problems? I don’t know if you understand this but finding your arranged wife is a problem you have to solve.”

Mason looked at the beautiful Jinni and replied indifferently.

“But that is the main reason I want to know about it. I don’t find it comfortable to relax when I know I have enemies seeking to take my life. Doing that will make my enemies spot me before I spot them so if I want to have a better chance to survive I have to spot them first and finding my arranged wife is the first step to do so”

Hearing what Mason just said, the Jinni’s smile became wider. The Jinni had watched Mason go through his hard times so she knew how poor he was before today, and now that she had given Mason his wealth she somewhat expected him to change. No, she expected Mason to use this opportunity to savor this wealth because that is what any average human would do, however, Mason didn’t do that.

It’s not that he didn’t want to get comfortable. It’s just that, knowing he has a problem in the back of his mind is what’s keeping him from getting comfortable.

The Jinni chuckled and for a moment a glint of reminiscing flashed in her eyes.

The Jinni smiled as her composure came back immediately after losing it for only just a second “Okay if you say so I’ll start listing the problems in finding your arranged wife but you only have one good news in all of this.”

She paused and looked at Mason with eyes that were asking for permission to continue.

Mason understood the glint in her seductive blue eyes and nodded for her to continue.

“The good news is that your wife is not too far away from you in terms of distance. In short, she’s right here in this city and she’s not only in this city but she’s also attending the same university as you.”

Mason’s eyes lit up with curiosity upon hearing what she just said. “My university? Does she do school at the University? That means she’s very close. Way closer than I expected.”

“Exactly”

“Then who is she?”

“Well, you already know her. She’s the most respected and the most beautiful female in the Sycamore university”

Hearing the Jinni’s words, Mason narrowed his eyes for only just a few seconds while he fell into deep thought before he spoke out again.

“Luna Smith?”

“Yes, you got it correct.” The Jinni’s sweet voice of playful praise entered his ears. “However, Smith is only a fake last name she answers to the world. Her real name is Luna White.”

Luna White or Luna Smith as Mason knows her to be is the most beautiful girl in the entire Sycamore university.

In short, she’s so beautiful that she’s ranked as the most beautiful girl in the entire Sycamore city!

Luna Smith wasn’t just infamous in the entire Sycamore city for her beauty alone but she was known to be from a very rich family. Even though she attended the Sycamore university as a rich student like everybody else, her status was way higher than the other rich students. Even the most handsome rich bachelor in the entire Sycamore university was below her in terms of status.

Luna Smith was a lady that was far away from the grasp of any rich bachelor in the entire Sycamore university irrespective of their net worth.

For a male to muster up the courage to talk to her is a problem and the most popular way male bachelors get their spouses at the Sycamore university is by using their status. Male bachelors target females with lower status than them, however, most sorts of male bachelors with the highest status in the entire Sycamore university had to admit defeat in the face of Luna Smith because her status was way higher than his.

In terms of status Luna Smith was the student with the highest status. Even inside the school, she was always guarded by a battalion of bodyguards that did not leave her side for a second even during classes.

The Sycamore university was a place strict with security because many rich families sent their children for education so the place had to be strictly secured to prevent anything like kidnappings or assassinations from happening. Due to the school's strict security measures, there was no need for the rich students to carry their bodyguards around inside the school premises so bodyguards were forbidden inside school premises. Bodyguards are to be left outside to bring a bit of normalcy between students but this was an exception for Luna Smith.

She always has her bodyguards with her at all times like she was the child of the president.

The funny part about it was, that nobody knew about the Smith family until Luna Smith enrolled in the university.

Her beauty was what brought her family name to the lame light inside the city and even with so much status, She wasn’t known to be someone with a prideful personality. Instead, she was known to be a lady that did not look down on the poor and the main reason Mason even got to attend the Sycamore university was indirect because of her.

Luna Smith was the one responsible for the tuition, shelter, and feeding of the poor and middle-class people who won her scholarship grant to the Sycamore university which included him.

Mason just couldn’t believe it. He felt his heart skip a beat several times in shock.

Sigh.

Mason let out a sigh, trying to calm himself.

“How surprising it is that the most beautiful lady in the entire Sycamore city is my arranged wife. She even has a space in the heart of every man in the city including mine.” Mason let out a tiring sigh. “This is going to be tough.”

“Tough? Why do you say so?” The Jinni asked with curiosity in her eyes.

Luna Smith was a known beautiful lady and there was simply no man that did not want her.

“Since we are talking about Luna Smith I simply can’t dismiss her like that. Everything I know about her tells me that she’s a nice person. A lady any man would dream to have including me.”

“Okay, then what is the problem?”

“All that I know about her is what everyone else knows about her so everything I know about her is her public character and these days the public character of a person is not necessarily their real character. I can’t trust that Luna Smith is not faking her character in the public. If she’s my arranged wife I’ll have to find out if she’s really who she is in the public.”

“Interesting…” The Jinni eyes lit up as she looked at Mason in amazement.

She wanted to suggest this fact to Mason but he was fast on the uptake to point it out himself. She knew that if Mason found out who his arranged wife is he won’t dismiss the thought of not claiming her for himself. Only the beauty of Luna Smith was enough to tempt any man to claim her to themselves if they are given the chance. She knew Mason wouldn’t necessarily dismiss Luna Smith with the excuse that he does not love her because her beauty was enough to claim any man’s heart and Mason was no different.

Having this in mind, the Jinni was beginning to think she would have to give Mason a bit of advice to prevent him from rushing to secure the beauty for himself but he pointed out her advice by himself before she could say anything.

“You are a smart one. You just saved me the work of me telling you this.” The Jinni smiled as she played with her red hair like any pretty girl would. “However, there is a problem. How will you get to know if she’s not faking her character or not? You certainly can’t go up to her and tell her you are her destined husband to impress her with all your wealth. I won’t advise you to do that if you want to study her true character, but at the same time you can’t approach her as any regular person so how will you do it?”

Hearing what the Jinni had just said an expression of discouragement suddenly appeared on Mason’s face.

“Honestly the truth is I don’t know…but I’ll have to think of something..”

Just when Mason’s mind was about to drift into thoughts of a solution to this problem he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
