Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Henry turned around and his gaze finally focused on her face.

The little woman in a beige trench coat still looked clean and fresh. However, there seemed to be a trace of sadness in her eyes that had not completely faded, and had been captured by him.

His eyes deepened. He didn’t say anything, and only nodded slightly.

“Well, I drank a little.”

Zoe forced a smile.

The man was really good at lying. With such a strong concentration of alcohol smell in the car, how could he drink just a little?

He clearly drank a lot!

However, she was not in the position to care about her, and was too embarrassed, so she pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Jack turned around and asked her with a smile, “Miss Zoe, where do you live?”

Zoe recited her address for Jack to enter into the vehicle navigator before starting the car.

There was a dead silence in the car. Zoe crossed his fingers, her hands in her lap and tilted her head toward the window.

Perhaps because the aura of the man beside her was too powerful, Zoe felt a bit restrained, and her entire spine was tensed up.

Henry looked at her overcautious look and smiled silently.

“Did you just come out of the Gil’s?”

Zoe was stunned for a moment before she responded, “Oh, yeah.”

“As far as I know, you don’t usually go back. What brings you here suddenly?”

As a woman who had slept with the big boss, Zoe didn’t expect the boss not carrying a through investigation into her past. So it wasn’t surprising that Henry knew her situation.

She hesitated for a moment, and did not answer him directly.

“For some private matters… Anyway, I need to come back.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Private matter?”

Henry raised his eyebrows. His handsome face was tinged with a fake smile in the night. His fingers resting on the car window tapped slightly.

“Well, as your legitimate husband, I should have the right to know more about your private affair.”

He said this with a smile on his face. If it were someone else, he would have thought that he was joking.

However, Zoe knew that he wasn’t joking.

Although Henry had a smile on his face, his eyes were very serious, as if warning Zoe that she’d better tell him the truth and not force him to probe into the matter.

Zoe smiled helplessly and did not dare to resist. She had no choice but to tell him honestly what happened.

In fact, she was secretly looking forward to it.

After all, she was the woman whose name was printed on his marriage certificate. When he saw his woman being bullied, he should help her!

For example, turning the car around immediately and rushing back to Gil family’s house to help her vent her anger!

What came next was totally out of her expectation.

“So, you were just upset about that scumbag?”

Zoe was startled.

Was Henry’s focus off the mark?

She laughed awkwardly, “No, I’m not upset! Who told you I was said?”

Henry forced a mocking smile. The smile on Henry’s lips turned into a light mockery.

Zoe pursed her lips, feeling a bit guilty. Her eyes drifted for a while before she finally lowered her voice and muttered, “I am just unwilling to give up like that! Not to mention that she stole my boyfriend! I had to cooperate with them to stage a show, seeing them displaying affection in public. I am sick even thinking about it!”

Looking at the depressed look in her eyes, Henry pondered for a moment.

“So what are you going to do?”

He didn’t believe that she would be so obedient to be the stepping stone for those scumbags.

Sure enough, the woman who was still depressed a second ago immediately showed a sly expression.

“Well… I have a brilliant plan. However, in case you blab it, I won’t tell you.”

Henry hooked his lips and stopped asking.

“Alright, then I’ll wait and see your brilliant plan.”

The car soon arrived at the community Zoe lived.

It was a small apartment located in the downtown area and was surrounded by a circle of planted greenery.

Jack pulled the car over and Zoe got out, waving towards the man sitting in the back.

“Mr. Han, thank you so much for sending me back. Goodbye.”

Henry’s hands that were tidying his sleeve paused. He looked at her and corrected, “It is time for you to change your title, Mrs. Han.”

Zoe froze, her face suddenly flushed.

She glanced at Jack, who was sitting at the driver’s seat, smiling in a teasing way.

She glanced at him, and then, she answered earnestly:

“Didn’t you say you would give me three days

to think it through? I still have time! What’s the rush?”

Henry thought for a while and agreed.

He had always been a faithful man and would never lie. Anyway, one day had already passed and there were only two days left. He was indeed not in a hurry.

Thinking of this, his eyes were tinged with a layer of shallow smile as he looked at her and waved his hands, “Good, then goodbye, my future Mrs. Han.”

The black Rolls Royce drove out of her sight, and Zoe withdrew her gaze, heading for her apartment.

When she opened the door, she received a call from her assistant Elsa, saying that she had just received an email from Mr. Anderson.

Elsa told her there was an emergency meeting to be held tomorrow morning, and all the senior management was required to attend. She reminded Zoe not to be late.

Zoe answered, and after hanging up the phone, she clicked on her email, and sure enough, she saw a group email from Steven.

Selling sex toys was just her sideline, as her main job was the Public Relation (PR) manager of an entertainment company under the Anderson Group.

This company was the first property that Michael Anderson handed over to Steven. The company was in a bad situation at that time, and Michael handed this company over to him to as a test.

During that time, Steven was so busy that Zoe helped him handle a few cases perfectly, which impressed him.

When Zoe returned from abroad, she accepted to lead the PR department of this company due to Steven’s begging.

Since then, the agency, called Century Entertainment, had hardly come across any major problems.

Even in today’s increasingly competitive industry environment, it made generous profits. In just two years, it had rapidly developed from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy to a large media company that has no rival other than Annita International.

Zoe was not a genius and had never been in this field before.

Besides her talent, she had worked hard day and night to make such achievements.

She did all these just because it was Steven’s company.

Steven, on the other hand, chose not to disclose their relationship.

At that time, she didn’t think much about it, just assumed that he didn’t want their relationship to interfere their work, so she continued to support him and didn’t say anything in front of others.

Hence, except her best friend Victoria, no one knew she worked for the Anderson Group.

After thinking through what happened in the past, it was just Steven’s excuse, as he simply give himself a way out.

It was easy to tell whether a man loved you or not from such details.

Thinking of this, Zoe smiled coldly.

She took her phone and sent a message to Michael Anderson. Then she tossed the phone aside and went into the bathroom.

By the time she finished washing up and came out, she received a reply from Michael.

“I’ve prepared what you want. Come over and sign it at 10 a. m. tomorrow. It will take effect as soon as it is signed.”

Zoe’s slender fingers flipped on the screen as she replied.

“Okay, thank you, Uncle Anderson.”
