Flash Marriage: My Penniless Billionaire Husband

However, Janice said, "This is clearly stated in the contract. The prerequisite is that we cannot sleep in separate rooms. But don’t worry, I can make a bed on the floor."

Christopher did not object any further. "Up to you."

He turned around and went downstairs.

Janice gazed at the familiar scene in the bedroom and sighed.

She would make good use of these three months.

Then she put her luggage away, took a hot shower, and went downstairs.

In the living room, she did not see Christopher. Then she walked to the study and found him inside.

She did not disturb him. Instead, she returned to the living room and walked around.

When she saw the kennel in the corner, she was stunned for a moment.

She stood there and stared at the familiar dog kennel, her mood instantly plummeting.

To be honest, during this period of time, she had intentionally not wanted to think about Nino.

If she wanted to find his memory, she had to return here. Nino was an existence that she could not avoid.

"What are you doing here?" Suddenly, a voice spoke from behind her, jolting her back to reality. She turned around and said, "Nothing."

Unexpectedly, Christopher’s eyes were fixed on the kennel behind her.

"Here..."

He seemed to be lost in thought.

Janice was briefly stunned before she asked, "Did you remember something?"

He frowned. "This kennel looks a little familiar."

"Really?"

Janice was delighted when she saw that he seemed to remember something. "Then think carefully. What else can you recall?"

He shook his head and turned to walk upstairs.

Janice watched him leave. She wanted to stop him to think carefully, but she swallowed the words finally.

She turned around and looked back at the kennel, but she thought of something.

Thinking of this, she quickly squatted down, only to find that the kennel was empty.

Only then did she suddenly remember that back then, she had been so worried about Christopher that she had forgotten about Nino.

In other words, she had left Nino there at that time.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly called Lucy and asked for the phone number of the policeman who was handling the case at that time.

She called and inquired about Nino’s whereabouts, but was told that all pets had been sent to a pet hospital in the suburbs.

It seemed that she had to find a time to go to the pet hospital to get Nino back.

In the afternoon, she drove to the pet hospital alone.

However, Nino had already been taken away.

Janice got a phone number from the pet hospital. She called and followed the given address, only to find that it was the pet center where Sophie was.

She suddenly had an ominous feeling.

Sure enough, not long after, she saw Sophie in the reception room.

It seemed that the other woman was not surprised to see her.

"I heard that you are looking for Nino?" Sophie asked.

Janice didn’t conceal anything. "That’s right. I come to pick up Nino and bring her home."

Sophie asked with a frown, "Why should I return Nino to you?"

"Because I’m her owner," Janice said.

Sophie laughed as if she had just heard a joke. "But my name is written on its adoption information."

...

Janice was surprised. "Impossible."

Sophie scoffed, "Otherwise, why do you think I was able to take Nino away from the police station?"

Janice couldn’t deny this.

After all, Nino was taken out of the crime scene and could not be taken away easily.

However, she did not understand why Nino belonged to Sophie.

As she was wondering, Sophie sneered, "What? Didn’t my brother tell you? I gave this dog to him as a gift."

Janice was extremely surprised at her words.

Christopher never talked about this to her. She always thought that Nino belonged to Christopher.

Unexpectedly, it was a gift from Sophie.

Sophie smiled, "Well, yes. Why would my brother tell you about this? To be exact, I am Nino’s real mother."

Her tone was full of pride.

Janice knew that Sophie had said this on purpose.

"Even if that’s the case, you’ve already given Nino to him. She belongs to him now."

"Then let him ask me for Nino," Sophie provoked.

Staring at her, Janice clenched her fists. "Must you do this?"

"What?" Sophie put on an innocent expression.

Janice closed her eyes to calm herself down. Then she said, "No matter what happened between you and him in the past, we’re already married now. I’m the master of Nino."

"But he doesn’t remember you anymore," Sophie mocked.

Her nonchalant words jabbed at Janice’s heart, but Janice grit her teeth and endured it.

"He doesn’t remember me, but it can’t change the fact that we are married."

"Is that so?" Sophie’s expression changed slightly, but she still sneered, "Then we’ll wait and see. I still have work to do, see you."

After that, she got up and walked out of the door.

Staring at her leaving figure, Janice clenched her fists.

She knew that Sophie had done it on purpose, but no matter what, Janice would not allow Christopher to see her.

Then she also left.

When she got home, Christopher was already back. When he saw her coming back from the outside, he asked with a frown, ’Where have you been?"

Janice calmed herself down and said, "Just take a walk. Are you hungry? I’ll cook something for you."

"Will it be edible?" Christopher asked with a frown.

Janice was speechless.

During her stay at the Allson’s house, she learned a few dishes from Nanny Daisy.

Although she couldn’t cook very good, the food she cooked was still eatable.

She said, "You can taste it when I’m done."

With that, she put down her bag and walked to the kitchen.

Christopher watched her walk in, and then he turned to go upstairs, frowned.

Half an hour later, three dishes and a soup were placed on the table.

"Hubby, it’s time to eat."

She knocked on the door of the study.

Christopher walked out and said, "Change the way you address me."

He was not used to be called hubby.

Janice was stunned. "The title is the only thing I am used to. Am I even going to be stripped of it?" Janice thought.

However, she still had three months. Thus, the first thing she had to do was to make sure that he would not dislike her. In that case, changing the title did not seem to be a big deal.

She then accepted it. "Okay, then I’ll call you Christopher from now on." As she spoke, she scooped up a bowl of rice and handed it over. "Hu... Christopher, let’s eat."

As she spoke, she picked up the bowl of rice in front of her and ate it anxiously.

However, she couldn’t help looking at him.

...

He did not complain, nor did he put down his bowl and leave. Instead, he began to eat slowly.

Only then did she heave a sigh of relief. After all, this was the first step she had taken.

In the evening, she lay on the floor beside the bed as usual. When Christopher entered, she was already lying on it. "Good night."

She smiled sweetly at him and then closed her eyes.

Christopher frowned, went to bed, and turned off the light.

It was dark in the room.

When the lights were off, she quietly glanced at the bed.

Although the road ahead is long, I am still full of confidence.>

Thinking of this, she silently added in her heart, "Good night, hubby."

The next day, Janice went to the pet center again.

No matter what, she had to get Nino back.

Sophie saw her coming over and frowned. "Why are you here again?"

Janice said, "I’ll take Nino with me."

"Didn’t I say to let Chris do it himself?" Sophie said. Janice paused. "I won’t let him come. Forget about it."

"Then don’t even think about taking Nino back," Sophie mocked.

Janice, who was unwilling to give up, continued, "If you don’t give her to me, then I won’t leave." As she spoke, she sat down directly in the seat in front of Sophie.

Sophie frowned because she was still at work and didn’t want to be disturbed.

Then Sophie said, "Well, I have a request. As long as you can do it, I’ll return Nino to you."

"What’s the request?" Janice was on guard.

Sophie said, "Don’t be nervous. It’s something you can do."

Thus, five minutes later, Janice appeared in the Pet Center’s logistics department. She stood at the door of an enclosed room and looked at the floor covered with pet

feces. She could not help but cover her nose and feel nauseous.

Sophie’s words echoed in his ears. "As long as you can work in the logistics department for a week, I promise I’ll return Nino to you."

Although it is a little smelly, I can do anything as long as I could get Nino back.>

Thinking of this, she turned to Sophie who stood behind her and said, "I can promise you, but you have to keep your word."

Sophie was slightly surprised at her words.

She sneered, "Of course I’ll keep my word. But only if you can hold on for seven days."

"Rest assured. Since I’ve agreed to it, I will definitely keep my word."

Sophie seemed not to be convinced. "In that case, you can take your time."

After that, she left with a sneer.

Only then did Janice’s gaze return to the nauseating poop.

Thinking of this, she put on the overall and stuffed two piles of thick cotton into her nostrils. Then, she walked in with a shovel in her hand.

She had been in there for several hours.

When she came out, it was already past five o’clock in the afternoon. She took off the overall and walked out of the pet center.

When she got home, Christopher was already back. He smelled a horrible smell in the distance, so he asked with a frown, "What’s the smell? It smells so bad."

He sniffed and realized that the smell was coming from Janice. He covered his nose and said in disgust, "What did you do? You smells so bad."

Only then did she sniff at herself. It was indeed quite smelly and she said in embarrassment, "I’m going to take a shower."

After that, she rushed upstairs.

Christopher felt speechless while staring at her going upstairs. Then he subconsciously sniffed himself. He didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt that he had been contaminated by that smell.

He had always been obsessed with cleanliness, so he couldn’t accept the smell on his body either. Therefore, he turned around and walked upstairs.
