Flash Marriage: My Penniless Billionaire Husband

Thinking of this, Sophie’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with a ghastly light.

...

She remembered that it was the birthday present she was going to give Malcolm last time; it was left at his place and he mistook it for his own.

Janice could not help feeling a little guilty. She took the tie from him and said weakly, "Don’t wear this anymore."

"Why can’t I wear it? This is a gift from you," Christopher took it back from her hand, this tie was one of the things that he liked the most.

Janice scratched her head, "This is not for you."

She lowered her head and said.

Christopher was stunned, "Then who is it for?"

"My father," Janice bit her lip.

Christopher’s face darkened immediately.

Janice glanced at Christopher’s expression secretly feeling guilty, "Hey, it’s all your own misunderstanding, okay?"

She just did not reveal the truth.

However, Christopher still had a grim look on his face. After seeing this, Janice reached out her hand to poke his arm, but he pulled away.

He seemed to be really angry, she pursed her lips and said, "It’s not a big deal, I’ll buy you a new one."

"You said it."

Only then did Christopher turn to look at her.

Janice nodded.

Christopher then turned aside and handed over a bank card to her.

Janice stared at the bank card and she was briefly stunned, "Why are you giving me your card?"

Christopher said, "Didn’t you just say that you would buy me a present?"

Janice understood his words immediately and left speechless, "I’m the one who’s buying you a present, I won’t use your money."

"My money?" Christopher narrowed his eyes.

"Yeah," she nodded.

Christopher said coldly, "Say it again."

However, Janice did not understand what was wrong with her words. Was that not his money?

Christopher stared at her face and asked, "Do you know the law of marriage?"

Janice did not understand why would he suddenly mention the law of marriage, and nodded, "I know."

"Do you know that after marriage, income is a shared property between the husband and wife?"

Christopher said.

Janice nodded, "I know."

"So, is this my money?"

Christopher frowned.

Only did Janice realized that this was the reason why he kept talking about the law of marriage.

She was lost in her words for a moment.

Logically, this was indeed their shared asset.

But, she did not agree with that in her heart.

What she thought to be hers had to be something that she earned by herself, not through marriage, and certainly not from him.

Moreover, his family treated her as a gold digger when she married him, how could she accept his money at this time?

She said, "I mean, I want to use the money I earned to buy you a gift, so you... you’d better keep it for yourself."

Hearing this, Christopher frowned.

After talking for so long, she still thought it that way. He really wanted to know what she had in her mind.

In fact, he had always wanted to give the bank card to Janice, but he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable with it, so he had not taken it out for a long time.

At this moment, he guessed it correctly about her reaction.

But even so, he still wanted to give it to her.

He said, "Just treat it as I’m paying you using my salary. Isn’t it natural for a husband to give money to his wife?"

Since he had already said that, Janice had no reason to refuse him anymore. She accepted it but it still does not mean that she would use it.

Thinking of this, she reached out to take it and asked, "So... how much is there in it?"

Christopher paused, "I don’t know about the details either."

...

Janice was surprised. How could he not know what the limits of his own card were?

She replied, "How about this? I’ll keep it for you first."

Then she took the card. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Christopher wanted to correct her. He was going to give the card to her. The card was not for her to safeguard.

However, it was already a marvel that she was willing to take it so he chose not to press the issue.

The next day, Janice went to the mall right after work. She went straight to the store as she had promised Christopher that she would buy him a tie.

Since Christopher was someone of status, she did some research on the brands before going to the mall.

She went into one of the boutiques of her choice. After looking around the display rack, her gaze fell on a beautiful tie with red stripes.

The tie looked very outstanding on the display rack. At first glance, she thought that it suited Christopher very well.

"Can you please show me that tie?"

Janice told the sales assistant.

The sales assistant walked up to her with a smile. "Miss, you have good taste. This is the most expensive tie in our store, it’s limited edition."

Janice’s heart skipped a beat.

The most expensive?

Or was it a limited edition?

How much would it cost?

When the sales assistant took the necktie and handed it to her, she quickly glance at the price when the sales assistant wasn’t paying attention. She was stunned.

Six figures?

A tie that cost six figures?

That was two years’ worth of her salary!

Immediately, she thought of the tie clip Sophie had gifted Christopher.

At that time, she glanced at the receipt and realized that the tie clip was also worth six figures.

She thought that it was ridiculously expensive.

She didn’t expect that she would also choose such an expensive tie. It was worth more than her annual salary.

But what should I do? I love it.>

Janice hesitated.

"Miss? Miss?"

The sales assistant reminded her when she saw that Janice was staring at the necktie hesitantly.

Janice came back to her senses and immediately handed the necktie back to the sales assistant. "I’ll shop around and consider it."

She said embarrassedly.

The sales assistant smiled and placed the tie back on the rack.

Janice glanced at the tie reluctantly. After all, she really liked it.

I can just imagine that I borrowed it from him. I’ll return the money to him after I’ve saved enough.

No, what was I thinking? I should buy it with my own money.>

Janice thought.

Just as she was hesitating...

"Honey, look, this tie suits you very well."

A man and a woman walked into the store. The woman asked the sales assistant to show her the same tie. She placed it in front of the man and looked satisfied.

Seeing the situation, Janice panicked and immediately rushed to the sales assistant. "I want this tie!"

"Yvonne, can you lend me some money?"

Janice texted Yvonne when she was at the counter.

It was true that she couldn’t afford the tie, but she really liked it.

Yvonne replied quickly. "How much do you need?"

Janice typed, "230,000."

Yvonne replied, "Why do you need so much money?"

"I... I just need it."

Janice was a little nervous.

After all, it was a significant amount.

Moments later, a notification popped up and the money was transferred to her bank account.

Janice stared at the amount. She was immensely grateful to Yvonne.

As expected of her best friend.

"Thank you, Yvonne."

She sent the message to Yvonne.
