"I found this island 3 months ago and immediately bought it for you," he said as he coughed a little. "This is my wedding gift for you. Come, let me show you around."

Finland was still dumbfounded when they entered the beachfront villa. Caspar led her to a very spacious bedroom arranged like a palace. The huge sliding glass doors opened into the infinity pool facing the beach. If these doors were opened, fresh air would flow into the room. It also provided the room with very good lighting.

"This... is.. beautiful, Caspar..." Finland whispered when she saw the view from the room. On the terrace of the room, facing the infinity pool, there was a large rattan cabana for two with soft cushioning. It was the perfect place for sitting and reading while sunbathing.

"I'm glad you like it."

Caspar hugged Finland from behind and buried his face in her hair.

"Are you serious, you really bought this island three months ago?" Finland asked in disbelief, "Three months ago you haven't even won the bet to kiss me."

"I know you will be mine sooner or later," Caspar whispered, "When I found this island, I considered it a good sign."

Finland smiled at that. She knew Caspar could easily buy things he liked. He bought the Continental Hotel because he liked the restaurant, then he bought Atlas Corp because he wanted to fire Noah Jannsen.

So, why not buy a whole island as a wedding gift?

Finland was happy because some of the purchases made by Caspar were because of her. She felt loved and spoiled.

Finland and Caspar were actually not alone on the island. There were the middle-aged man who welcomed them, a butler, several staff, and two personal bodyguards.

However, these men were very good at being discreet and they gave their master and future lady all the privacy they needed. Caspar and Finland felt as if they were alone on the small island.

Every day food and fruits were available, and the villa was perfectly cleaned. Finland felt very happy. She never thought that she would be able to experience the rich people's way of going on a holiday.

"If we're not here, is there anyone on the island?" Finland asked one day when they were reading a book by the infinity pool.

"This island is offered on a 'private island' website, so anyone can rent it for parties, honeymoon, etc. The butler and staff stay here to take care of the villa and the guests. It's a shame if this place is left empty. It will deteriorate quickly, because we may only come here several times a year for vacation. " Caspar explained.

Finland was tempted to ask what other assets were owned by Caspar. Didn't the man say that he had given his heart, his life, and his everything to Finland? She wanted to know what 'his everything' would include...

As if reading Finland's mind, Caspar suddenly gave her his phone.

"I don't even know what exactly all my assets are. If you want to ask about my property and whatever I own, you can contact Stanis. I've lived for too long so it's hard to keep track of everything I've bought and owned." He shrugged his shoulders. "If it's really big or new I will remember, but there are so many properties I own that I don't even know I have. I once saw a very nice colonial house in South Africa, and when I asked Stanis to buy it, he told me the house was already mine! Apparently, I bought it decades before for the same reason."

Finland laughed when she heard Caspar's story...

It turned out that even super rich people have their own problems, she thought.

"You seem to trust Stanis very much," Finland said later. She changed her mind about asking him about his assets because now she realized it might be too much work. "Are there other people you trust besides him?"

"There are many people I trust," Caspar said. He placed the book he was reading on the side table and poured a glass of prosecco for both of them, "Stanis is the head of my household staff - you will meet him in Germany or Spain later. He is the one who selects all the people who work for me. Besides Stanis, of course, there is Ben. They are both the grandchildren of my trusted aide who is now dead; their grandfather was very loyal. He died trying to protect my parents during the war. Their father worked for me his whole life, also very loyal. Then of course I have several bodyguards, two of them are Alchemists. You've met Jadeith... "

Finland gasped, "Jadeith is also an alchemist? But he looks so much older than you. He's like in his 30s."

"I have told you that the peak growth of every human being is different. Jadeith stopped aging when he was 35. Actually, I'm much older than him, Jadeith is only 120 years old..." Caspar chuckled while sipping his wine. "I carried him after he was born. He's Flora's child, so he is my nephew."

Finland did not expect this at all. Jadeith.. was Caspar's nephew?

"So, why does he call you 'Sir' and not Uncle?"

"Because four of my other bodyguards do not know that he is my nephew. He wanted to work professionally." Caspar answered. "Jadeith is my nephew. Then there are four bodyguards who are former members of the world's elite forces, and one more female bodyguard who is also an alchemist. Her name is Famke. She is a special girl who helped me in a lot of covert operations. Maybe someday you can meet her. Famke is currently quite busy working on personal projects."

Female bodyguard? Suddenly Finland felt her chest tighten. It turned out that Caspar had a female bodyguard.. and he said that she was special... a special girl who was also an an alchemist who can live forever...

"Why do two alchemists want to work for you? Aren't all members of the Alchemist clan rich and powerful?" Finland asked curiously.

Caspar shook his head, "Of course not. Just like not all Asians like to eat rice, not all Alchemists are rich and powerful. Some are smart and able to store the knowledge they have gained for hundreds of years to accumulate wealth, investment, and power. However, some don't use this privilege well. It makes no difference if you live 200 years or 50 years if you are a lazy learner and have poor time management skills. "

"Oh... are there many Alchemists like you?" Finland asked, curious. Initially she thought that all Alchemists were rich and powerful like Caspar. Apparently she was wrong.

"There are five influential families in our clan. These families have been active in the alchemy community since the first century. When my grandfather finally found the immortality formula, the world alchemy community appointed him the leader of the Alchemists clan. When he passed away, my father took over.. and now me. You will meet the people from these five families and many others on our wedding." Caspar rubbed Finland's hair lovingly, "I can't wait to introduce you to Flora and Aldebar. They will definitely like you."

Finland smiled when he said that. She also wanted to meet Caspar's family. Four months ago, aside from Jean, she had no one. Now, she had a loving partner, and next month, she would have a husband, a sister in law and two brother in laws (Aldebar dan Louis).

She would instantly have a family; a large family even, because Flora had children and grandchildren. She truly never imagined this before.
