Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

He was not right for her?

Who did Randy even refer to? Steven or Henry Han?

She was amused and didn’t bother herself to continue the dialogue but sped up.

Randy also quickened to catch up with her, and he held Zoe’s wrist to support her when they entered the dining room.

“Zoe, be careful.”

Zoe subconsciously pulled her hand back and glared at Randy.

She was quite familiar with the path from the living room to the dining room. Though she had not lived here for several years, she wouldn’t stumble that easily.

That man did it on purpose.

He flirted with her to show they were on intimate terms.

As expected, Annie’s laughter came from the dining room.

“Well, we wait for you for a while. It turns out that you two stayed behind on purpose. Randy, my sister is gentle and soft. You can’t bully her.”

Randy smiled and said, “No, Zoe is so beautiful that I just can’t love her enough. How can I bully her?”

Looking at it, Ciara was apparently pleased.

She nodded in satisfaction, “It’s good that you take a fancy to each other. Come here and sit down!”

Randy turned around and said to Zoe with a smile, “Zo, let’s go over.”

Zoe frowned.

She felt so disgusted that she wanted to vomit.

When Zoe stood still, Helen stood up hurriedly.

“Zoe, come to sit next to Annie.”

Helen seemed to be considerate enough to help her out. However, Steven was on Annie’s left side. If she did sit next to Annie, she would be very embarrassed.

To watch how they loved each other at a close distance?

Maybe they didn’t find it awkward, but she felt disgusted.

Zoe said nothing but strode out to sat to the right of Jaden.

Helen sat there before. After she stood up, the seat was available.

Zoe looked at Helen and said with a faint smile, “Helen, you should have no objection to me sitting here.

The smile on Helen’s face froze.

Ciara put on a sullen look.

“Zoe! That’s Helen’s position.

Zoe said lightly, “My mom used to sit here. I miss her, so I want to sit here for a while. Can’t I?”

Ciara was fuming with anger.

Jaden was unhappy, too.

Since her mother died, Zoe had changed a lot. Every time they met, she would mock or ridicule him to enrage him.

With her sitting beside him, it meant that he wouldn’t finish this meal peacefully.

Thinking of that, Jaden put on a long face and said, “Zoe, sit there. Here is Helen’s seat.”

Zoe insisted, “It’s my mother’s seat.”

“You!”

Helen came to mitigate the tensions.

“Forget it. It’s just a seat. It’s what Zoe want. Just let her sit there. I can sit here.”

With that, she sat at the other end with an aggrieved look.

Helen seemed to give in, but the whole table stared at Zoe in dissatisfaction because of Helen’s words. Even Randy, who had taken a fancy to Zoe, couldn’t help frowning.

He had heard how willful Zoe was before. He just thought it a rumor. Now it seemed to be true.

Helen was her elder. Though she was Zoe’s stepmother, she was very nice with Zoe.

However, Zoe forgot herself and returned evil for good.

Even so, looking at the cool and unworldly face of Zoe, Randy just couldn’t suppress his desire.

Well, he didn’t mind that she was arrogant.

She was like a wild cat that had showed its teeth. He loved that. He could feel more successful than conquering a gentle woman.

Thinking of that, he smiled and said, “I didn’t want to make Mrs. Gil feel wronged. Since Zoe was unwilling to sit with me, I’d better sit at the end of the table. Mrs. Gil, you may sit back.”

Hearing that, Helen was somewhat embarrassed, and gave Randy an apologetic and awkward smile.

“Randy, thank you so much. It’s really quite embarrassing.”

“Never mind. Zoe is straightforward. I like such kind of girl.”

“It’s good that you like her.”

Helen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and turned her gaze at Zoe.

Zoe remained a cold look. Regardless of what she thought, they discussed her as if she was just something they were about to sell.

She put on a cold smile as she had never expected Ciara to be so shameless.

What was Ciara doing?

Pimping her granddaughter out?

Selling her granddaughter out?

She came to realize that Ciara must have heard some rumors and thought the relation between her and Henry was unreliable. Therefore, Ciara asked her back to see other people.

She lowered her head and laughed as if she had thought of something.

Ciara happened to ask her, “Zoe, I heard that Henry didn’t take you when he went back to Eqitin?”

Zoe answered faintly.

Ciara was gloating, “As expected, he is not right for you. Luckily, you are young. It’s easy for you to find someone better.”

Randy echoed.

“Yes, you are so young and beautiful. So many people like you. You don’t have to waste time on unrealistic expectations.”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Zoe threw a glance at him and Ciara.

“Have you heard something?”

Ciara paused.

Then she mocked, “Since you know that, I can drop the last veil. Henry has a fiancee in Eqitin. He didn’t take you back, so you should know what he meant. Zoe, though the Gil family is not wealthy and influential, it enjoys a good reputation in Julio.”

“It’s your choice to be with whoever you like, but I can’t let you be a homewrecker and damage the reputation of the Gil family. So, you’d better break up with this Henry and get married to a good man. We will still admit you are part of the Gil family if you do so.”

Zoe looked at Ciara with a mocking gaze.

“There happens to be a homewrecker that wormed her way into my family. You don’t bring her to account but come to criticize me?”

“You!”

Ciara was too angry to refute. Helen’s face reddened with embarrassment.

“Zoe, how can you say something like that!”

“I am just being frank. Before you teach me a lesson, you should not make the same mistake yourself, should you?”

“You-”

As they were about to quarrel, Annie came to mitigate the tensions.

“Dad, Zoe, stop arguing. We still have a guest here.”

They finally realized Randy was still here and stopped going further.

Annie turned her gaze at Zoe with a kind smile.

“Zoe, I know that you have a problem with me and my mom. We can’t deny our mistakes or beg for your forgiveness. But our grandma did it totally for your benefit. You can hurt us, but you can’t let our grandma down.”
