Flash Marriage: My Penniless Billionaire Husband

Hearing this, Christopher turned around to look at where the voice had come from.

A police officer came out from the office. He probably didn’t know what was going on and went forward to stop them when he saw someone trying to take the suspect away.

Christopher looked at the police officer.

"Are you sure?"

His eyes were too cold and his aura was domineering. The police officer was stunned and did not dare to speak.

Just then, someone approached the officer and rebuked him.

"Mike, what’s wrong with you? This is Mr. Bateman, he’s a high-tech talent Tomaville invited over."

"But Sir, he is taking the suspect away."

"What suspect? She’s Mr. Bateman’s wife."

After being reprimanded by his superior, the police officer stepped aside in a hurry.

Only then did the superintendent step forward with a smile and say, "Mr. Bateman, please don’t blame him. He’s a newcomer and doesn’t know what’s happening."

Christopher didn’t say anything. He glanced at the police officer with appreciation and said to the group of lawyers behind him, "I’ll take her with me tonight and vouch for her. I will take responsibility if anything happens."

With that, he pulled Janice out of the police station.

It was not until his figure disappeared that the crowd came to their senses. Their eyes were full of admiration.

Janice followed behind him. She approved of the way he had dealt with the problem just now.

She never did like to make use of the privileges she had as his wife, but Christopher’s behavior today made her look at him in a new light.

However, Christopher was walking so fast that she couldn’t catch up with him. She had to trot after him.

"Honey, don’t walk so fast. Wait for me."

Only then did Christopher stop. He stared at her with eyes full of anger.

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Janice immediately lowered her head when he glared at her.

Christopher had wanted to scold her, but when he saw the red and swollen lumps on her wrists, he frowned. He stepped forward and grabbed her wrists. After a careful

look, he found that the bumps were mosquito bites and there were bloodstains on them.

Frowning, he turned around and opened the car door, pushing her inside. Only then did he return to the car and take out a bottle of ointment from the glove compartment.

"Give me your hand."

Janice immediately stretched out her arm.

Christopher applied the ointment on her wound. The bites instantly felt less itchy after the cooling ointment was applied.

Seeing Janice’s brows gradually relax, Christopher finally let go. He put the ointment aside and questioned her.

"Were you going to spend the night there if I hadn’t come?"

Janice bit her lips when she saw Christopher’s cold gaze.

"No, I was about to call you when you came."

Her voice was so soft that Christopher could barely hear her.

He snorted coldly. "Why didn’t you tell me on the phone earlier?"

"I thought I could solve it myself."

Janice’s voice was still very soft.

"You can solve it yourself? If you can prove your innocence, would they have taken you into custody to begin with?"

Christopher was very angry.

Janice also knew that she had been overconfident this time, so she apologized.

"Honey, I know I was wrong. Don’t be angry."

She reached out and tugged at Christopher’s sleeve.

However, Christopher shook her off. He drove off with a dark expression and did not say anything else.

Neither of them spoke along the way.

After a long silence, Janice felt that they couldn’t continue like this and took the initiative to speak.

"By the way, how is your grandpa?"

"You don’t have to worry about him." Christopher looked ahead.

...

Janice could not retort but she still said, "I promised Grandpa that I would go back to the hospital to visit him. Why don’t you take me to the hospital?"

After saying that, she looked at Christopher. She thought that he would agree, but he looked her up and down and then said with disdain, "Do you think Grandpa won’t be scared by how you look right now?"

Janice glanced at herself when she heard that. Her clothes were indeed slightly wrinkled, and she hadn’t bathed at all today. She’d been drenched in sweat earlier, so she definitely didn’t smell good now.

As expected, she did smell a little acrid when she sniffed at herself subconsciously.

Janice’s face flushed with embarrassment.

"I’d better go back to take a shower and get changed first."

Christopher ignored her and drove back to the villa.

As soon as they entered the villa, Janice hurried up the stairs and rushed into the bathroom without another word.

When Christopher went upstairs, the bathroom door had already been closed, He could hear the sound of running water inside the bathroom.

He stared at the bathroom door, and Old Mr. Allson’s words rang in his ears.

"My only wish is to see you get married and have children before I die."

Now that they were married, the only thing they needed to do was to have a child.

They couldn’t delay it any longer.

Thinking of this, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

In the bathroom, Janice stood under the shower and scrubbed at herself hard.

It was said that people who went to prison would have bad luck.

Although she did not really end up in prison, she still felt slightly dirty from the whole ordeal.

Therefore, she deliberately washed herself several times in the shower.

When she went out, she found Christopher standing at the door.

When Janice saw Christopher, she didn’t dare to look him in the eye.

She knew that he was still angry with her.

She still had not thought of a way to appease his anger, so she could only dodge in a panic and walk toward the wardrobe.

She walked to the wardrobe and opened it. Afraid that Christopher would get

impatient from waiting, she said while picking out clothes to wear, "I’ll get changed and go right away."

She took out the clothes from the wardrobe and was about to put them on when Christopher suddenly came over and stopped in front of her.

When Janice saw him walking over, she uttered, "Hubby..."

She was about to take a step backward.

"Don’t move," Christopher warned.

As he spoke, he reached out to take the clothes from her hand.

Seeing this, Janice asked in puzzlement, "Chris, didn’t we agree to go to the hospital to see your grandpa?"

She did not understand what Christopher was up to.

He did not reply. Instead, he put the clothes back in the wardrobe, closed the door, put one hand on the wardrobe behind her. Then, he put his lips close to her ear.

"Let’s settle what happened first."

He was too close, and she could hear his breath swirling at her ear. Janice felt that he was being too flirty.

"What... what happened?"

She was a little tense.

Christopher reached out to lift her chin.

"What do you think?"

He lifted Janice’s chin so that she had no choice but to look straight into his eyes.

The look in his eyes made her a little confused. Didn’t he say that he wanted to settle what happened? Why did she see a desire in his eyes?"

"How... how do you want to settle it?"

Christopher did not say a word. He raised his hand and slowly reached toward her chest.

She only had a bath towel wrapped around herself.

She tied the towel into a large bow-like knot in front of her chest to secure it.

...

Christopher’s hand landed on the knot.

He stared into Janice’s eyes and tugged on the knot bit by bit. The knot slowly loosened and the towel fell.

His heated gaze followed the arch of the towel falling.

The towel fell on the ground. Janice was stunned, especially when she saw that Christopher was looking at her so passionately.

"You..."

Christopher ignored her surprise and slowly approached her. He brushed his lips against her cheek and whispered into her ear.

"This is your punishment."

With that, he planted a kiss on her lips.

Janice was briefly stunned before she slowly closed her eyes. She might have seemed calm when she was being held in detention but she had actually been terrified.

After being a reporter for so many years, although she would occasionally encounter some dangerous situations, it was her first time being detained in a detention center.

The moment Christopher appeared, she felt as if she had found a way out of the darkness.

Even though she was reluctant to rely so much on him, she still wanted to feel a sense of security from him.

Christopher’s kiss had come at just the right time.

She was shaken from the events earlier right now.

Gradually, her emotions were stirred up, and she was no longer as passive as before.

She hooked her arms around his neck and responded actively.

It did not take long for the temperature in the room to rise.

Just as the two were unable to control their emotions, Janice suddenly stopped and panted, "Hub...by put on a condom."

She had already touched the box of condoms on the table but he suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Let’s have a baby."

Christopher said softly.

Janice was stunned for a moment, but just as she was about to speak...

Christopher continued, "I don’t want to force you, but Grandpa is not doing too good right now. This is his wish."

Hearing this, Janice paused for a moment. She raised her head and looked into Christopher’s eyes with affection.

She couldn’t refuse Christopher in the first place. If he had insisted, she would have compromised a long time ago.

She would agree as well even if it wasn’t for his grandpa’s sake.

With that thought in mind, she slowly let go of the box in her hand.

With the sound of the box falling, the two wrapped their arms around each other once more.

The next morning, they went to the hospital together to visit Old Mr. Allson. As soon as they arrived at the door of the ward, they heard people yelling inside.

It was Old Mr. Allson and Nanny Daisy.

The two of them seemed to be arguing about something.

Nanny Daisy was a servant, so she naturally didn’t dare to talk back to her employer. She could only stand to the side and silently wipe away her tears.

The two of them hurriedly walked in when they saw that. "Grandpa, what’s wrong this time?" Christopher walked up to the man and said.

Old Mr. Allson snorted derisively. "This old woman is rebelling. She looks down on me now."

Hearing this, Christopher frowned and looked at Nanny Daisy. "What happened?"

Nanny Daisy’s eyes welled up with tears. "Young Master, the doctor said that he isn’t allowed to leave the ward. Mr. Allson insisted on me helping him to the park outside. I didn’t agree, so he got mad at me."

Nanny Daisy felt very aggrieved.

Having been exposed, Old Mr. Allson felt a little embarrassed and said, "Don’t listen to this old woman’s nonsense. We shan’t go then. Why are you crying?"

Christopher frowned and patted Nanny Daisy’s shoulder comfortingly. Then, he told her to leave the room first.

After Nanny Daisy had left, Christopher said, "Grandpa, I know you’re feeling bored in the hospital, but you have to listen to the doctor."

"Damned brat, you start lecturing me the moment you arrive."

Old Mr. Allson snorted with dissatisfaction. When he turned his head and saw that Janice was there as well, he immediately smiled and said, "Janice, you’re here too."
