Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

115



Since Zoe was not dutiful at all, as her grandma, she didn’t have to be kind and merciful.

Thinking about it, Ciara said, “Haven’t you seen a man sitting here? You don’t know him? Why don’t you greet him?”

Zoe frowned.

She was never engaged in the family’s business, so she didn’t know that man, nor did she think it necessary to greet him.

She looked at the man staring at her with a gentle smile.

In the end, she didn’t want to make Ciara embarrassed in front of an outsider, “Mr. Kruf.”

“Don’t be so serious. I am just a few years older than you, you can call me Randy.”

This Randy then put on a kind smile and tried to please Natalie.

Zoe was lost for words.

A few years older than her?

He should be ten years older than her or more.

If she remembered correctly, Randy was nearly forty years old!

Did he just shave off his beard and have his hair dyed and think he was merely in his early twenties? How could he be so brazen-faced?.

But she neither put it blunt nor literally called him by his name. She just looked at Ciara.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“I’ve something else to do tonight. Please be brief.”

Ciara said in a deep voice, “Why are you in such a hurry? I call you back for dinner. The dinner is not yet prepared but you are in a hurry to leave.

Ridiculous.”

After that, Ciara turned around and said with a smile. “Mr. Kruf, I am sorry. Zoe is just a spoiled girl. Please do not have hard feelings.”

Randy laughed and said, “I don’t mind. I love the straightforwardness of Miss Zoe.”

Zoe frowned and felt something different from their conversation.

Just then, a sweet voice came from outside.

“Grandma, whose car is that? Is there a guest at home?”

Then, Annie Gil walked in the villa with Steven, linking her arms with his.

Zoe’s gaze turned cold when she saw Annie.

But Annie pretended to be quite happy.

“Zoe, I’m glad that you’re here!”

With that, Annie let go of Steven and ran over with a pleasing look.

Then she saw the man on the sofa.

“Who is he?”

Ciara kept smiling at the sight of Annie.

Then she introduced Mr. Kruf to Annie. “This is Mr. Kruf. He is the owner of Julio Commerce. He has helped the Gil family a lot. You can call him Randy.”

Hearing that, Annie said with a smile, “Randy.”

Randy smiled and said, “I’ve heard your story long before. You’re just as gorgeous as I had imagined. I’m glad to see you.”

With that, he stood up and shook hands with Annie.

Randy turned surprised as he looked at Steven.

“You must be Mr. Anderson, right?”

Steven nodded, “Yes.”

“I didn’t expect to meet you here. I am so glad.”

Steven didn’t like this fatty man who had tried his best to please others, but he nodded his head slightly for the sake of the Gil family.

“You too.”

Just then, Helen came out and asked them to go to the dining room as the dinner was ready.

They stood up and walked to the dining room.

Zoe didn’t move until they were all gone, as she didn’t want to walk side by side with them. However, Randy slowed down as well as if on purpose.

He sneaked a peek at Zoe, found the woman was just as unapproachable as a snow-covered high mountain, and an unworldly aloofness was emanating from her whole being.

Her disposition made her already delicate face even more attractive, and he could not wait to rip her aloof pretense off and ravage her fiercely under his body.

When he thought that, his gaze went more and more passionate.

He put on a flattering smile, “Miss Zoe, you don’t live here but live alone?”

Zoe looked straight and ignored him without even throwing a glance.

Sensing the weird gaze of the man, she finally came to realize that Ciara had asked her back for selling her out.

But… Ciara wanted to establish contacts with Henry through her, didn’t she?

Since Ciara knew the relations between her and Henry, why did Ciara introduce her to other men? Did she go crazy?

Zoe frowned and was confused about what Ciara wanted to do.

Randy put on a sinister look after he was ignored.

However, the next second, he put on his disguise and his gentle and ingratiating smile came back to his face in just a second.

“You don’t have to be so cautious. You must have understood what your grandmother thought. I always respect women. If you don’t agree, no one can force you. Even if we can’t be together, we can make friends, right?”

Hearing that, Zoe finally glanced at him.

She curled her lips with a faint mocking look.

“It’s good that you know that. We just take it as a small dinner party and we won’t disturb each other in the future. What’s your opinion?”

Though he had sensed that Zoe wasn’t into him, he looked a bit embarrassed when hearing

that.

He gritted his teeth and said with a rigid smile, “Zoe, you don’t think it twice? Ciara introduces me to you because she knows me well and thinks we are a good match. Though you are quite good in any way, it’s difficult for you to get married into a truly wealthy and influential family.”

“I am not that rich and powerful, but at least people know my name in Julio. Even the Anderson family and the Kaur family need to show respect for me or ask me for support. You don’t lose anything if you marry me.”

Zoe smiled.

“So, you think I should agree now?”

“I don’t mean that. I understand your worries. It must be a major decision for girls to choose a good husband, so you should consider it.”

“I just hope that you don’t refuse me without hesitation. You know my past. I have an ex-wife, but she has died and I have no child.”

“As for you, Miss Gil, you can never escape the past. Now, few people know your past and you still maintain a good reputation. Once they know that, do you know the consequences?”

He paused, looked at her as if implying something and added, “Zoe, to be honest, we are indeed a good match and he’s not right for you. You’d better let it go.”

Zoe was speechless.

She had never seen such a bold-faced man before.

A good match?

Was this some kind of joke?
