Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

24



Zoe’s readiness made Henry somewhat surprised, and his mouth immediately split into a smile.

“But I have conditions.”

“OK!”

“First, you cannot tell others our relationship without my consent.”

“Second, you cannot touch me without my consent!”

The smile under his eyes faded away somewhat, “Is there a third?”

Zoe thought about it for a moment but finally could not think of anything else, so she shook her head, “No.”

After a pause, she added, “I will let you know

if I have a third.”

Henry said in a deep voice, “So you just want me to be a monk.”

Zoe was stunned.

“Mrs. Han, I’m a normal man. If you don’t give me your consent, I will have no sex in my life.”

He said as he took a step forward to her. Zoe could only struggle to shrink back in.

“I, I didn’t mean it like that.”

The reason for such conditions was simply that she subconsciously felt that the marriage between the two would not last for too long.

She hadn’t even considered what would happen in the future.

Henry sneered, seeming to see through her thoughts.

“Zoe, I will not divorce you once I am married, so since you have agreed to it, there is no chance to back out. Be Mrs. Han and I will give you everything you want, understand?”

Zoe looked at him and didn’t say anything.

The fingers cupping her jaw suddenly tightened and she let out a cry in pain. She could only agree in resignation, “Yes.”

Only then was Henry satisfied, and he let go of her chin.

Only then did he notice two small red marks pinched on her delicate skin.

His deep eyes darkened slightly.

In the end, he realized he had just been too aggressive and was worried that he might have scared her.

So he added, “Alright, I won’t touch you for the time being, but I hope you get used to being Mrs. Han and don’t keep me waiting for too long, ok?”

When Zoe finally understood what he meant, she blushed a little and nodded.

Henry turned around and headed out. Not long after, he came in with a new set of women’s clothes.

Handing the clothes to Zoe, he said, “Get changed and come out!”

Zoe just hummed in acknowledgement.

Then the door of the bathroom was closed, Zoe took off the wet gown she was wearing and changed into the clothes Henry had brought over to her.

The clothes must have been prepared by Brian just now while they were in the bathroom. The plain colors on those simple and casual clothes took off her cool aura. Instead, they made her look more like an innocent school student.

She looked at herself in the mirror and was stunned for a moment.

She was twenty-four. People at the age were only two years out of college.

But perhaps it was because she had experienced too much in the past five years, her heart had long been through the vicissitudes of life, plus she always stayed with a group of 30- and 40-year-olds in the workplace, and she also had learned to be somewhat mature.

Without realizing it, she had forgotten that she was actually young.

It was the most beautiful age for a girl.

Girls her age were youthful, beautiful, and unrestrained, and more importantly, they could afford to live proudly.

She thought of Henry’s words and slightly lowered her eyes.

After a long pause, she suddenly showed a smile.

After she had got changed and went out, she found no one in the bedroom.

There was the sound of someone talking in the living room. When she walked out, she saw Henry, Brian, the Gil family as well as Steven.

Ciara sat on a single sofa with Jaden and Helen standing behind her.

While Steven was supporting Annie standing on the other side.

Seeing her come out, Annie looked at her with a worried face and said softly.

“Zoe, I came back from the hospital immediately after I heard about your accident, are you okay?”

Zoe glanced coldly at her without speaking. Instead, she just walked over to Henry and sat down.

No one in the room paid any attention to her at all, and Annie’s face stiffened slightly. The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Actually, who could the rest of the Gil family even have the time to care about her feelings at this point.

Back at the moment Henry announced that Zoe was his wife, it had shaken everyone to their core!

After the initial shock, they immediately felt great fear and worry.

What they did tonight certainly crossed the line, even they would agree!

Therefore, no matter what verdict Henry handed down on them, they had nothing to say!

But despite this reasoning, they still couldn’t

help but grumble at Zoe in their heart.

Why didn’t she tell them so before, since she had been with Mr. Han?

She let them do their bidding, and now, well, they not only lost their face, but also offended Mr. Han.

She did it on purpose!

That was vicious!

Ciara was filled with anger, and Zoe seemed to notice it, turning her head to glance at her, then smiled coolly.

‘You must be so mad.’

‘But what you can do?’

Brian had already ordered someone to bring Dennis here, too. But compared to the Gil, Dennis wasn’t treated so well.

He was tied up and dragged into the lounge, with marks on his body and face from the beating, and a purple bruise at the corner of his eye.

Obviously he had got dealt with severely!

At this point, how could Dennis not understand the situation?

As soon as he saw Henry, he immediately knelt down.

“Mr. Han! It’s all a misunderstanding!”

Henry sat in the wide leather sofa. His slender and straight legs crossed and a cruel cold smile hung on his face.

“Misunderstanding?”

“That’s not what you said in the hall an hour ago.”

Dennis was almost on the verge of tears.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Only God knew what kind of torment he had gone through just now.

These guys were sick and they just would care about his life, he thought.

He might be a playboy, but he didn’t want to die yet!

“Say it! What’s this shit all about? Be honest and you might save your life. If you dare to lie to us.”

He paused, and a cold, murderous look crept up the bottom of his eyes, “You will wish you haven’t!”

Dennis’ face turned pale and he nodded in fear, “I’ll say, I’ll tell you everything!”

“Mr. Han, I swear, is really has nothing to do with me. This old woman ordered me to do it!”

“She said if I helped them in a play and told everyone Zoe had a relationship with me, then I won’t have to pay the one million I owed Mr. Gil at the gambling table before!”

“I was so greedy, and I agreed to that!”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Han, I was wrong. I didn’t know Zoe was your wife, please forgive me and spare my life!”

While he was crying, he jumped over and tried to hug Henry’s legs.

Seeing this, Brian, who was next to him, went straight up and kicked him away.

Although Brian was just Henry’s assistant, he worked out quite often. His kick was so powerful that Dennis was directly kicked over a few meters away and fell heavily to the ground.

The people in the room were almost stunned.

Zoe was also slightly shaken.

Only Henry remained expressionless.

Ciara came back to her senses after the shock.

She snarled, “Dennis! What nonsense are you talking about? Zoe is my granddaughter, how could I do any harm to her? We all know what kind of person you are. If you hadn’t been in a relationship with her, I would never allow you two to be together.”
