When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First

Viktor's eyes glowed, "Really? Can we really go? I mean, is it too late, and you also just came back from shopping, right?"

Sayana reassured as she glanced at her watch, "Don't worry, it's just barely past 3. We should have to get back by six only."

Her gaze became downward as she said, "I did go shopping before but not for books. It was just for girl things."

Viktor said enthusiastically, "Okay! Let's go, then."

Sayana quickly got up and said as she glanced at her dress, "Uhm...can you give me five minutes to get ready?"

'Only five minutes?' Viktor chuckled inwardly while on the outward he said with a friendly wave of his hand, "Sure. Take all the time you need. I am in no hurry."

"Okay, thanks," Sayana said with a smile as she hurriedly left his room.

"Hmm, I didn't expect to go on an outing with a cute girl today. It seems like good days are ahead of me," Viktor mumbled to himself as he looked at the bright sun staring at him from the skies, not at all feeling blinded by its brightness.

Meanwhile, Sayana hurried back to her room and closed the door before fumbling through her dress compartment, searching for her best clothes like she never did before.

Usually, she doesn't care what she wears, but today, since it was the first time she was going out with a boy alone and even if it was not officially a date, she wanted to look presentable.

Finally, she decided to wear skin-fit jeans and a t-shirt with short sleeves. She felt that she would just be wasting time by going through all her clothes and choosing which to pick since almost all her clothes were of the same type.

She took a glance at her watch and saw that four minutes had passed after she got inside her room and decided to quickly comb her hair during the last minute.

Viktor came out of his room without changing his clothes since he was already wearing a baggy t-shirt and jeans and didn't feel like there was a need to change.

And just then, he heard Sayana's door open and saw her coming out with a neater look and a backpack on her back.

"I hope I didn't take too much time," Sayana said anxiously.

"No, no. You were actually fast," Viktor said with an impressed look. In fact, he was really impressed after averaging the amount of time the women he usually hung out with before took.

Sayana shyly smiled as the two went downstairs.

Viktor noticed that Umi had already left and wondered if she took yoga classes every day.

He also couldn't smell Taya's scent anymore and felt that she also must have left for something along with Eva.

He could only sense the presence of Brad and Tiana and felt that most people in this house were indeed busy, and he was also going to be soon.

Seeing Sayana and Viktor coming out, few bodyguards came up to them and asked, "Ma'am, Sir, please allow us to escort you."

Sayana said with a smile, "No, thank you. We are just visiting nearby places, and it's only a walking distance. I also want to help him get familiar with our place by walking around."

Sayana wanted to take Viktor around alone and felt that having bodyguards looming over them every second would be uncomfortable even if she knew they were doing it for her and Dorian's protection.

"This…" The guards seemed to have been put in a difficult spot since usually, they would be escorting Sayana or anyone else.

They were not familiar with the new face besides Sayana, but by now, they were already informed that he was a new member of the Snow Family.

So no matter how surprising news it was, they were duty-bound to protect his life as well.

Sayana sighed inwardly, understanding their situation, and said, "I know you guys track us using our phones, right? Isn't that enough to make sure of our safety?"

The guards' expressions became a bit awkward, but they didn't refute her and simply nodded before moving away.

Viktor raised his brows, and as he and Sayana walked, he said in a tone of admiration, "Wow, you are so smart. How did you know they could track us using our phones?"

Sayana felt her face going red from his innocent compliment and said casually, "It's not that big of a deal. I am sure you would understand if you watch some movies as well."

As the two walked, Viktor came upon nice trees and well-paved roads, a stark contrast to the muddy and rocky roads he had seen for many years.

The air felt so cool and refreshing without much noise from the vehicles, and the roads were almost clear except for a few cars and two-wheelers passing by.

Sayana wasn't staying silent at all and was showing and explaining to him about the shops and facilities he could use nearby.

Viktor learned that the Snow Mansion was located in a town named Springfield.

And the town was mostly silent with all kinds of shops and stores on the nearby roads. fre(e)web

There were only a small number of tall buildings around, while the rest were filled with beautiful greenery.

He learned that all the popular malls were located in the neighboring town, which one could easily reach within 10 minutes by taking the subway, which had a number of stations all over the city.

Viktor memorized the streets he passed by, and finally, the two stopped near a small complex where there was a book shop along with other kinds of stores in the building.

This was Sayana's favorite book store since it was quite near to her house and also had a great selection of all kinds of books.

However, a group of two boys and three girls, all aged around eighteen, were smoking cigarettes in the same street corner and spotted Sayana and Viktor walking into the complex.

"Hey, isn't that the red-haired leech Sayana?" One of the girls asked with wrinkled brows.

"Yeah. It is. Wow, Megan, you got nice eyes to spot a dork. But who's that tall dweeb with her?" Pinkie asked with a sneer.

"It can't be that she got herself a loser boyfriend, right? No, even losers wouldn't want to be her boyfriend. How strange," Tina, the girl with an eyebrow piercing, snickered.

"Wanna prank that four-eyed couple?" One of the boys, Ron, asked with an evil smile.

"Sure.. Let's kill some time,' Leo chuckled, who had a soda bottle in his hand.
