Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Not to mention Gordon and the others, even Louis, who had always been calm and reserved, also couldn’t help but feel stunned.

He held up his gold-rimmed glasses and asked, “Henry , is that true? Or had you deliberately made up such a person just to stop those rumours?”

Although Louis was not so close to Henry, he was the one who knew Henry’s body the best.

This was because he was from a doctor family, and his family was so prestigious that it only treated the leading figures of the country.

As he had a good relationship with Henry and his friends, he would also take care of their health.

Because of this, he knew very well that Henry was no gay at all.

Henry was normal in terms of sexual orientation and function!

As for why he didn’t look for a woman, perhaps there were other reasons.

Henry gave him a look and smiled faintly, “You’ll know it when you see her next time.”

Louis gave a start, realizing that this was true, and was interested in it instantly.

“It seems that Julio was such a good place. You haven’t met any women for decades in Eqitin and in all those countries. But now you have just came back to Julio for less than half a year, you even have a wife. Way to go!”

Henry laughed, “Don’t be jealous. You won’t find one that way.”

Louis felt a sharp knife stabbing deeply into his

heart.

Gordon said, “I’m curious to know which family’s daughter will be able to catch your eye. Bring her out next time. I want to have a good look.”

“As she is your wife, when will you bring her back to Eqitin? Let’s gather together and have a good time!”

“Yeah. You guys are going back to Eqitin, right?”

Henry nodded, “Yes. Just some time later!”

“Alright, we’ll wait for you in Eqitin then.”

“Why bother? I want to see her tomorrow.”

“You’re so anxious, Gordon. Hahaha…”

The atmosphere in the private room was harmonious and cheerful. And just then, Henry’s mobile phone rang.

Gordon immediately joked, “Could it be your wife urging you to go back?”

Peter, who was sitting closest to Henry, leaned over and took a glance. And he did see the name on Henry’s phone.

My Dear Wife.

“It’s so mushy for using such a lovey-dovey name.”

Henry snorted, “Can you get one even if you wish for it?”

Peter was speechless.

Why did the singleton babble so much?

Henry ignored them, got up, and walked outside to answer the phone.

“Natalia, done with your work?”

His voice was so gentle that nobody had ever seen him being like this before.

However, the voice coming from the other side wasn’t Zoe’s usually calm and clear voice, but with a hint of anxiety and feebleness.

“Henry, are you free to come out now?”

Henry could feel something not right by the way she talked. He knitted his brows.

“What’s the matter?”

“I… I’ve been drugged at the Gil Mansion.”

Henry’s face turned pale constantly.

“I’ll be right over.”

Henry hastily entered the private room, grabbed his clothes and hurriedly headed out, not even having the time to talk to the people inside.

When the crowd saw that he didn’t look right, they hurriedly stood up too.

“Henry, what’s wrong?”

“What happened?”

Henry’s face was gloomy as he said, “Something happened to Zoe!”

…

Zoe didn’t just sit on the bed and wait after making the call.

She walked over to the window and looked downstairs.

The Gil Mansion had three floors in total. The room she was in was on the second floor, which wasn’t too high from the ground.

She estimated the distance and then went back into the room, attaching the bed sheet to the duvet cover.

Soon, a long piece of cloth rope was ready.

Zoe tied one end of the cloth rope to the corner of the bed and the other end to her waist. She then slowly climbed down.

The kitchen was just below the window, and some maids were washing dishes in there. Zoe stayed in mid-air for a while and then landed on the ground quietly only when they turned back and went out.

As soon as she landed, she immediately untied the rope and ran outside.

The Gil Mansion was in the richest block in the center of the city.

The block was surrounded by mountains and lakes, with all the landscapes and gardens you would ever expect inside. It was a staggeringly enormous area considering how expensive and scarce the land was.

Luckily, Zoe had lived here since she was a child and was very familiar with the surroundings.

Soon, she found the nearest road and ran out.

It was already late at night, and she didn’t dare to stay around much longer for fear that someone from the Gil family would find out that something was wrong and chase after her.

So, as soon as she reached the road, she stumbled to the roadside and hailed a taxi.

The driver, a middle-aged man with a stout body and whiskers, couldn’t help but be amazed at first sight of her.

When Zoe came out, she wore her own clothes, but it still couldn’t hide her excellent figure.

Besides, her face was so pretty and delicate as if it had been drawn by God with the greatest care. Even in front of those celebrities, she did not look even slightly inferior at all.

He opened the car door for her and asked, “Miss, where are you going?”

Zoe stumbled on her feet, with her face flushing in a strange way, and rushed into the car.

“Number 13, Riverside Avenue, Han Mansion.”

The driver widened his eyes, hearing her words.

He turned back to look at her again with a lustful look.

‘The Han Mansion, heh!’

That was a place where the rich lived.

Zoe only felt that her body was uncomfortably weak, paying no attention to the driver’s strange look at all.

After giving the address, she leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes.

The driver thought she was drunk seeing her like this.

He smiled and accosted her, “Have you had too much to drink? A girl shouldn’t drink so much when being outside alone! What if you meet a bad guy?”

Zoe still had her eyes closed and leaned back in the back seat, not saying anything.

A moment later, her phone rang.

It was Henry.

“Zoe, are you alright? Can you still hold on?”

He raised her hand to cover her forehead and said in a hoarse voice, “I’m out and in a car now.”

“Where are you now?”

Zoe tilted her head to look out of the window, “It seems to be near the Rosemary Market! I’ve given the address of Han Mansion, and I should be home soon.”

The more she said, the more her voice trailed off.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

The drug had taken effect in the end. Even though she had been biting the tip of her tongue and trying to stay awake and sane with the help of the pain, it wasn’t a permanent solution after all.

On the phone, Henry had heard the abnormality in her voice and said tensely, “Okay. I’ll be right there.”

Zoe passed out after hanging up the phone.

Perhaps it was because Ciara was in a hurry and was unprepared for the night. The drug that Ciara gave her was not really something strong like the one that Katya Anderson had given her last time, but an aphrodisiac that could make her drowsy, similar to those used between couples.
