Chapter 172 Grey House

'No major mishaps...' Smiling wryly, Christian just nodded.

"Good, now I'll take you to see inside" Turning around, the woman walked towards the two meter plus door and smiled as she pointed sideways "As you see, the entrance way has exotic flowers with a small waterfall on each side, the main flower is called bleeding heart, it was brought directly from China."

"They are very pretty!" Quickly bending down, Elisa looked at them with a beautiful smile.

"Amelia, now that you talk about China..." Turning his gaze toward the large forest, Christian asked "Can you build a small lake with a bridge across it in the Chinese or Japanese style, with a small hut in the middle to look out over the lake...I'd also like it to have Koi fish."

"Sure you can, we will talk to a Japanese architect who is a specialist in constructions like that, he will have the fish, water lilies and everything you want".

"Thank you, I'll tell my mother to give you the necessary resources."

"Christian, can we have squirrels!?" Looking at the forest, Elisa asked excitedly "They are very cute!"

"I think we can, they usually hang out in city parks with no problems" Christian nodded, then turned to Amelia and asked "Can we bring squirrels and make them some tree houses? We could also give them food so they don't have any problems."

"It will be simple" The woman nodded.

"Thank you, now let's go inside I'm anxious."

Nodding, the woman opened the door, showing the beautiful interior.

Walking in, the woman smiled and spoke "As you see, on the left we have another waterfall, but bigger, it's made especially for indoors and won't splash anything, plus the water is reused, so it doesn't waste much"

Continuing on his way, Christian found himself in the center of the big house.

'It's certainly different from Tony's, but it's very beautiful...' Turning his gaze with a smile, Christian nodded with satisfaction.

To begin with the house at first glance had everything, large windows pointing towards the sea, a small circular rise in the center with a dark piano in the middle on a white carpet, a bar to the left, several sofas to the right and a staircase leading down in front of a window.

"Here I don't need to explain much, I should just tell you that each sofa area comes with televisions that come down from the ceiling, each one has its controls" Walking towards the stairs, the woman went down followed by the trio.

"This room as you see, is smaller than everything upstairs, but it has the wonder of hanging on the cliff" Staring at the sea, the woman spoke "This room is a cinema, it has a 98 inch TV on the ceiling, 4 sofas for 8 people, in the center they have a coffee table that also serves as a minibar"

"..."

"Now the specialty of the house is this" Pulling out a large remote control from her clothes, the woman shows it to Christian and presses a button, causing the windows to start darkening automatically "All the windows in the house are smart, they have a state of the art technology that darkens the windows using electricity, I don't know how it works, but using it is simple."

[A/N: Interestingly this really exists, I saw it in the Tony Stark movie, but I thought it was just fantasy, I did some research and it turns out it is a reality]

"How cool!" Staring into the pitch blackness of the place, Elisa exclaimed with excitement.

Smiling slightly, the woman pointed upstairs "Let's go upstairs, I'll show you the rooms."

Walking slowly through the house, Christian only sighed with satisfaction.

[A/N: I'll leave the link to the video of the house here, it's a design created by someone else and I took it for Christian's house, at least the rooms, because the main room is the same as Tony Stark's].

Arriving to a large hallway, the woman pointed to the 3 doors "There is a master bedroom connected to the windows, it has a queen size bed and a large bathroom with shower and tub, it also has an indoor jacuzzi and at the same time has another room especially for clothes, it is as big as the movie theater with furniture everywhere, the windows are also darkened with the control. The room includes a room level sound system and everything you might need such as furniture, shelves, among other things."

"Instead the two rooms at the front have windows facing the forest, the rooms are planned for guests so they are not as complete and are much smaller, have double beds, furniture and a small television, apart from a small private bathroom with everything you need."

Opening the door to the main room, Christian nodded with satisfaction as he saw it.

The room was a mix of colors between white and gray, the bed against the wall with a direct view of the sea and the television already lowered in front of the bed.

Two doors could be seen at the end of the room, while a large sofa was in one corner surrounded by two smaller sofas.

Outside the windows a large balcony was visible as in the rest of the house, with small electric braceros for warmth in the evenings.

"It's beautiful..." Sarah murmured, speaking for the first time since arriving at the place.

"Follow me, I'll give you the rest of the tour."

After 30 minutes of traveling, Christian saw different parts of the house.

Having a Jacuzzi next to the big pool at the edge of the cliff, 3 empty bedrooms for any use, 4 bathrooms in the whole house, gym, a big kitchen with the dining room next to it and finally another big room with a desk and libraries all around for books, while a fireplace was seen in the center surrounded by sofas and carpets.

Last but not least, Christian was in the garage downstairs of the whole house, having the same look Tony Stark should have while building everything.

"The garage is connected to this room, you can bring up to 6 vehicles" Looking out the windows, the woman continued "As you can see, this place was very big, so we brought more sofas and another TV for you to hang out here if you want, the place has ambient music system and your mother told us it would be a kind of workshop, so we brought different basic tools."

"This place is amazing" Sarah nodded "Now I want to buy a motorcycle to work here"

"Then let's buy two" Smiled Christian.

"Now comes the last thing, only a few workers know about this" Looking at Christian and then at Sarah and Elisa, the woman spoke seriously.

Noticing the unsubtle signal, Christian waved his hand lazily "Just say it, they are my best friends and I trust them."

"Well..." Hesitantly, the woman nodded, then walked over to the cement wall connecting to the mountain and pulled out a picture of a car that was on the wall.

Looking at the keypad, the woman turned to Christian and spoke "Your mother ordered a secret room for you, it's kind of like a panic room, but bigger, the password for now is 1111 plus fingerprint, you can change it right now if you want."

Entering the password and placing her fingerprint next to it, the woman managed to open the door.

"How do I change it?"

"Now that it's open, you have to press all the numbers from 1 to 9 and place the key again, then place the new fingerprint and finally the new key."

Nodding, Christian looks at Amelia indicating her to turn around, something the woman did not hesitate to do.

Placing the numbers and the same key as her panic room, Christian finished placing his print and nodded.

"Ready."

"Okay, the print and password is recorded on a computer inside the hidden room, it has cameras all over the outside of the house, including the exit of the lot and in the woods, all of that is on computers inside the room."

Looking at the metal hallway in front of him, Christian asked "How big is it?"

"It has the camera room and computers, another room of about 10x10 meters completely empty and the last room is about 20x20 meters, the biggest room has scientific equipment, I don't know what they are for, but your mother ordered them for you, the place also has a bathroom with shower included."

"How sturdy is the house?" Noting that everything should be under the small hill where he lives, Christian asked.

"It can withstand earthquakes up to 15 degrees on the Richter scale and should withstand a tsunami, at least the structure, the glass and the interior would be destroyed, but I recommend you not to make any changes to the structure, because everything is planned in a certain way to give it as much firmness as possible."

"It supports quite a lot..."

"Yes, it was a masterpiece of the architect, it took him a year to plan the whole house perfectly."

"I see..." Nodding, Christian thinks for a few seconds, then nods and closes the door "Then I'll investigate the place, I have to bring certain things to put away"

"As you wish."

"How many people know about this place?"

"10 people if you count me and the special architect in bunkers, we took a long time to build this, but everything went well, the other 8 people are of total confidence for your mother, so rest assured that this will not come to light"

"Perfect, I appreciate your work" Nodding with a smile, Christian looked at Leslie and Sarah "Now we share a secret!"

"It's just like the movies..." Looking up at the glowing number pad, Elisa murmured.

"And movie stuff will happen inside" Winking at her, Christian sighed and asked towards Amelia "What's left to do in the house?"

"As you noticed, it's still missing a lot of decorations and ornaments, that would be the last thing."

"What do you think, could you decorate everything that's missing?" looking at Elisa, Christian asked with a smile-.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

"Sure, it'll be fun!" Elisa exclaimed with a smile.

"Then that would be it Amelia, the house process is done" Nodding, Christian turned and spoke with a smile.

"*Sigh* At last..." With a relieved smile, the woman looked around and spoke "I still have the last thing to do, it's small, follow me."

Leading them towards the pool, Amelia approaches the balcony and points towards the cliff "As you will see, there are some stairs that go down to a small beach that can be considered private, its name is 'Pirates cove Beach'"

"The beach has fine sand and was cleaned by the workers, they also removed the stones from the shores and the whole entrance to the sea is sandy, so it will be more pleasant for you."

Looking at the small shore, Christian raised his eyebrows as he saw that it really could be said to be a private beach.

The place was no more than 50 meters, but it was surrounded by the cliff and the connection to the rest of the beach was covered by a piece of cliff, causing the only entrance to be your yard or by a boat.

[A/N: The place where the house was built really exists, including this small coast, I will leave the image of the area here].

"That would be all, do you have any questions?" looking at Christian, Amelia asked.

"No, that would be all, thank you for your help."

"Don't worry, that's what I'm paid for" Amelia smiled, then continued "In the house I left you the manuals of the controls and the whole house in detail, the gardeners come to work in the morning to take care of the plants and the yard, and by 10 am the cleaning staff arrives, if you are bothered by the time you can talk to them to change the schedule"

"Understood, what will you do now?"

"I have to catch a flight to Hawaii, we have to finish certain details on your island, your orders today will be ready in a month at the most, we will make sure we don't make too much noise so we don't disturb you"

"I understand, you are free to go Amelia, I thank you for everything, I will talk to my mother so she can give you a small bonus."

"No need, we are already paid well enough" With a genuine smile, the woman took out her cell phone and sent a few messages "There, they are coming for me, I'll leave you in peace, have a nice evening"

"Thank you."

Looking at the woman's back, Christian turns to Elisa and Sarah who were talking to each other looking at the beach.
