Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Zoe leaned weakly over the car window. She was watching the night view flash by, and the rims of her eyes were red.

What Steven had said was still lingering in her ears but now she just found them ridiculous.

She was not the weak type. She fought back when she could bear no more. But in the eyes of Steven, she was the one who was bullying.

She was driven out of the Gil family, and everyone across the city had known that she was the abandoned daughter of the family.

She did not want to make things difficult for him and could only avoid showing up in the public. But in the eyes of Steven, it became her reluctance to go to social parties with him.

As for her adult product business?

Were it not for what the Gil family had done to her, were it not for the selfishness and biases of the Gil family, would she end up like this?

And all of these ended up being her own faults?

Zoe closed her eyes, feeling everything was so ridiculous.

Suddenly, a man’s voice suddenly came up to her, “Is it worth it? You are so sad for such a crab.”

She froze a little, and looked over. In her now blurred vision, she saw a man sitting right there, cool and noble. His back was straight, his eyes were cold. Only then did it come to her mind that she had got into a car with a man and this man had help her in the bar just now.

Knowing that there was someone next to her, she could only try to get herself together and wipe off the tears on her face, “You must be mistaken. I’m not.”

Steven raised his eyebrows and his stares fell on her eyes, red but still beautiful.

Zoe explained, “Do you know what you should do when an investment fails?”

“What?”

“Cut it loose and stop the loss.”

These gentle words from his thin lips made her heart tremble.

She looked over and saw his towering body. The dim light of the street cast a layer of shadow on the side of his chiseled face, and a cool and noble aura can be seemed from his whole being.

She sure had seen good-looking men and Steven was one of them.

However, Steven was far behind the man standing in front of her at the moment.

No matter how bright a star could shine, it could never be compared with the moon and the sun. The man in front of her was dazzling. He was like an eagle flying freely above even the heaven, with unparalleled nobility.

Not to mention his face. Such a gorgeous face was enough to make just any woman scream.

Suddenly, a seemingly absurd thought flashed across her mind…

Staring at the side of his delicate face, she gulped, “I see.”

She paused for a while and asked all of a sudden, “What do you think of the adult product business?”

Henry said, his brows knitted, “Just a normal business. I don’t think there is anything special with it.”

She smiled somewhat sweetly.

Smiling, she was half drunk, yet he could still see the great emotion in her sexy and charming eyes. Her voice was soft, “Neither do I.”

All of a sudden, a hint of clean and comforting fragrance climbed onto his nostrils. He turned his head slightly, only to see her straighten her body and lean forward against him.

“Then, what do you think of me? Am I beautiful?”

His back stiffened.

The woman in front of him was no doubt beautiful.

She was more than just beautiful. She was also stunningly sexy.

Although she only wore a simple beige jacket over a white camisole, it could not hide the clean and noble aura emanating from her body.

“I have never seen a woman more beautiful than you are,” he could not help but think.

He gulped but he did not say a word.

It was only a few moments later that he gave an uncomfortable, “Mm…”

Zoe leaned even closer, and her bright red lips almost brushed his ear. She thought she had kept her voice down, and she said, “Then if I want to have sex with you, would you be willing?”

“Pfft-”

Jack, while he was driving the car, could not help but snort a laugh.

The next second, however, he felt the blazingly cold gaze behind him.

He hurriedly stopped smiling and pressed a button. A glass panel raised silently, separating

the front seat and the back seat cabins.

Only then did Henry looked back at the woman next to him.

He squinted at her, and an unusual expression could be seen from his eye, “There’s a price to pay if you want that, are you sure?”

She giggled, “You want money? I have money.”

With that, she produced her wallet from her bag, and took out all of the hundred dollar bills she got.

“You can count it out. If it’s not enough, I can also transfer some more to you.”

Only then did Henry understand that she had been serious.

The veins on his forehead throbbed twice and he rubbed his temple.

“So you are just going to sleep with whoever

is with you tonight.”

She shook her head.

All of a sudden, she giggled again and reached over to pat him on his face.

“I am not that dumb. I want you just because you are handsome. They all looked down on me. So I have got to find someone who is more handsome than he is. They must be so mad!”

Such an answer had indeed surprised Henry.

He did not know what to do with her. Apparently he did not plan to take it seriously.

At this moment, the car suddenly screeched to a stop.

Zoe crashed forward and was almost flung out if Henry had not held her just in time.

Henry frowned and asked, “What happened?”

The voice of Jack sounded from the front seat, “Sorry, sir. We’ve just arrived at the Han Mansion.”

“Alright. You can go now.”

“Yes, sir.”

Then there was the sound of door closing. Henry looked back at the woman in his arms. He could not help but knitted his brows seeing her drowsy eyes and glowing pinky cheeks.

“Here we are. Let’s get in.”

Yet the woman who was leaning against him did not move at all but stared at his noble and willful face.

On that noble and cold face, his lips were thin and sexy. She felt herself bewildered seeing the movement of those lips.

With the help of the alcohol, she could no longer hold back herself.

She reached over and circled her arms around his neck. The next moment, His back stiffened and his pupils dilated slightly. Yet the next moment, the softness was already nowhere to be found. Instead, there were the giggles of Zoe, who saw the serious face of him.

“Handsome, you’ve got a real sweet mouth.”

He did not know what to say for an instance, and just wanted to throw her out of the car.

Eventually, he held back the impulse and said in a grim tone, “Get your hands off me!”

But she did not listen to him. She blinked, staring at his handsome and cold face, and the rims of her eyes became red again.

“So you also think I am cold and dull. And you don’t want to sleep with me?”

Henry’s jaw tightened, “That’s not what I mean.”

“Then why won’t you agree?”

She suddenly felt aggrieved. Two streams of tears flowed down her now pale cheeks, forming large drops of glittering gemstones from her chin.

His heart tightened for some reason even he himself could not tell.

The tears of the woman in his arms poured without restraint and soon wet his shirt.

Henry rubbed his eyebrows, feeling sad for this young girl.

After a long pause, he finally gave out a sigh and softened his tone. “Let go of me. I will take you upstairs and you can take some rest there.”

“No!”

She wrapped her arms around his neck even tighter and buried her face in his chest as if she was drowning and his neck was a piece of driftwood that happened to be floating by.

Six years. For the past six years, Steven had refused to touch her. She used to believe that it was because he respected her and cared for her.

But now, it turned out it was just because he thought she was dull and boring. In his eyes, she

just got the body of a woman but was man otherwise. She had been such a fool.

Whenever she thought about it, she felt a stabbing pain over her pride.

As if she wanted to prove something, she put her arms around the man, and kissed his soft lips again.

Unlike the pecking just now, this time, she put his bottom lip in her mouth, gently chewing it and licking it and her thick eyelashes was like a delicate black fan, quivering along with the closing and opening of her eyes, brushing his cheek, and giving him an itchy sensation.

The whole body of Henry stiffened.

The tension of the moment threw him entirely in disarray.

After a long pause, he finally gave up, and held her chin in his hand, his breathing already heavy, “Zoe, do you know what you are doing?”

Zoe let go of his lip, and whimpered for the pain in her chin, staring at him with her wet and accusing eyes, just like a wounded deer.

She said gravely, “I do! I am having sex with you!”

Zoe was almost giggled by what she said.

His eyes were dark and his voice terribly low.

“Are you sure!”

She was dazed for a moment but finally she nodded.

“If you say so! Then I’ll just satisfy you.”

On the second floor of the Han Mansion.

The door of the bedroom was slammed open. He laid her on the bed, and his kisses were like a rain, moving from her head to her toe, while their clothes were scattered all over the floor.

She groaned softly, and felt boiling hot all over her body. Her head was already blank, and she could not even tell whether it was real, or it was just a dream.

The dizzying sound of a man came to her ears, “Now, I will give you one last chance. Do you want to have sex with me or not!”

She nodded her head in a blur.

Henry pulled open the drawer next to the bed, and took out a document.

“Good. Then you need to sign this first.”

Zoe looked at it with hazy eyes. “What?”

“I need to make it official. It’s the most basic respect a man can have for his favorite woman.”

She looked at him blankly and did not quite understand him. But anyway, she was so drunk, so she did not think much and signed the document.

Looking at the neat signature on the paper, he hooked his lips approvingly and put the document back in the drawer. After everything was done, he kissed her lips heavily once again.

And then, all was left in this room was just the humming and groaning that last the entire night.

…

The next day, Zoe was awakened by the pain.

She felt sore all over her body as if she had been run over by a truck.

After tremendous effort, she made it to sit up on the bed and she felt extremely thirsty.

Seeing a cup of water on the table next to the bed, she picked it up and just gulped it down without thinking much.

The lukewarm water indeed made her feel better. And the fuzzy memory of last night gradually creeped back to her mind.

She rubbed her eyebrows. She could only vaguely remember that she got into a car with a man and did something unusual with him after being provoked by the calls from Steven and Annie…

Her heart tightened, and she fiercely lifted the quilt.

Although she was already more or less prepared for it, she felt so shocked when she saw the dense purple love bites all over her body.

“Ahhh! What the hell is it,” she almost yelled out.

She rubbed her hair in frustration and at this moment, a “click” suddenly sound…

She jolted and hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover her body.

“Who is it!”

The door of the bedroom was open from the outside, and a slender man walked in with steady steps.

Her pupils dilated due to the shock.

Though she only had a vague memory of the last night, she could more or less remember the man she had slept with.

The man was dressed in a black suit today, with a well-ironed white shirt inside. The shirt was buttoned up to the top meticulously. The chiseled face above it was extraordinarily handsome with his sunken eyes, well arched eyebrows and pointy nose. An aura of prohibitive nobility could be felt just from every part of him.

In his hand was a set of ladies’ clothes, and there was not much expression on his face when he saw she was awake.

He put the clothes on the bed and said softly, “Get changed and come downstairs for breakfast.”

Zoe called out to him, when he was about to leave.

With his back to her, his lips curled up slightly and his voice was still indifferent and cold.

“We can talk downstairs.”

With that, he just walked out of the room and closed the door after him.

Zoe’s head was all blank, and after a while, she fell onto the bed all of a sudden. She grabbed the pillow to cover her head and yelled silently.

Though her memory was a little vague, she was not entirely unconscious. She did know what she had done to the man after putting together her fragmented memories.

“AHHHHH! How embarrassing!”

No matter how regretful she was, she could not undo what she had done. Thus, after a while, she finally got up from the bed and dejectedly walked into the bathroom with the clothes.

During the shower, seeing the dense and thick bruises all over her body, she could not help but feel shameful blush again.

Anyway, she managed to finish everything, got changed and went downstairs, where she saw the man sitting on a couch in the lounge.

The lounge was quite big. Just like the room upstairs, its modern and minimalist style could be seen from the black and white colors. It was luxurious yet restrained. The French window to the side was wide open and she felt a bit chilly when a breeze blew past her.

Maybe it was the footsteps. He looked back, and surprise could be seen from his eyes when he saw the woman standing on the stair.

Zoe was wearing the black shirt and keen-length skirt he had brought to her. The top button of the shirt was left open, and a black tie was wrapped around her neck. The simplicity of the dress showed the sexiness of her slender and well-proportioned body.

His eyes widened, and he stood up and walked to the dining hall.

She could only follow him and when she finally caught up to him, they already got to the dining hall.

“Hey, about last night… I’m sorry. I was drunk.”

Henry pulled the chair for her before he sat at the other end of the table himself. His voice was soft. “It’s alright.”

After a while, he added, “It’s what I should do anyway.”

“Huh?”

Zoe did not understand what he meant and at this moment, a men walked in from the outside.

He walked right up to Henry, and respectfully handed over two red pamphlets to him. “Mr. Chairman. We have got everything ready.”

Henry said nothing but gave a “Mmh” sound. He reached over, took the little pamphlets from the man, flip them open and handed one of them to Zoe.

“Take a look.”

Zoe was stunned and subconsciously she found it familiar. “Would it be…”

Her heart tightened and she hurriedly reached over to take it from him. When she saw her photo and her name on it, her eyes nearly popped out of her head.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“What… What is it?”

Henry took a glance at her indifferently.

Unlike Zoe, who was almost freaked out, he was much calmer. He put aside the marriage certificate in his hand and said in a grim tone, “Have you forgotten what you signed?”

Staring at him with her rounded eyes, she said, “What did I sign?”

“Huh.” As if he had long anticipated her reaction, he tapped on the table and the man next to him handed him another document immediately.

Zoe took it from him and on the document two large words were clearly written: Marriage Application.
