Chapter 284 - The Log House

The couple stayed at the log house the next day. Usually J would spend her 2-days off at Lodgepole Estate but this time, she chooses to spend it at the log house with her parents and Jacob. Although J told Arthur, Stefan and Felix to go back to Lotus City to have a day off, they choose to stay as well. While Daniel went back to his wife and newborn daughter. Lance on the other hand didn't go back to Mt. Celandine to attend to some matters regarding J's share at AM Entertainment. This past few weeks, they were trying to acquire another 5% share from AM Entertainment. For some reason, J and Lance wanted to gain as much power in the entertainment industry.

The Do Family's official residence is a 3,000 sq meter log house with a rustic interior design that sits in Naupaka Mountain with an impressive view of the Lotus City and the mountain's vast forest. The house has eight bedrooms including the master's bedroom that is being used by President Martin and Madam Victoria, two rooms intended for their right-hand mans which are Leo and Peter. The room that was used by Elder Do was remained kept and unused. Another two rooms reserved for J and her right-hand man, Arthur. As a right-hand man, Leo, Peter and Arthur have to be around the Do's at all time so it is a privileged for them to stay in the log house.

Two more rooms can be used as guest room, although there is a small guest house behind the log house near the pool.

Aside from the eight rooms, there were also twelve bathrooms, three living area, one of which is located at the ground floor. It is the biggest room in the house connected to a lanai. This is where the Do's usually held multiple events. A big kitchen is also located at the ground floor adjacent to two dining rooms. The first dining room is exclusive for the Do family but President Martin and Madam Victoria rarely used it because they feel like it was still a bit too big for the two of them. So, the couple usually eats at the lanai or the balcony of President Martin's office.

The other bigger dining area with a long table is used whenever the log house have guest, mostly being used after a council meeting.

On the basement is the garage, a playroom with bar and the cellar.

At the back of the log house is a guest house, pool and not far away is the servants house.

Over all, the log house is warm and cozy except for its emptiness. During normal days, only President Martin, Madam Victoria, Peter and Leo and a couple of servants and guards could be seen roaming around this extensive log house. But today, the house seemed to be warmer with the presence of J and Jacob. Although J used to have a cold aura, the completeness of her family gave a sense of warmth in the house. It fills the emptiness of the enormous log house.

Plus the addition of James and three hunky men in the name of Arthur, Stefan and Felix, the considerable size of the log house seemed to have lessen.

On the corner area of the second floor is President Martin's home office. Aside from under the big oak tree at the back of the house, the couple spend most of their time here.
