Flash Marriage: My Penniless Billionaire Husband

She had never tried it.

She thought of the lingerie set Christopher had bought for her earlier.

He said he could wait, but in truth, he was probably anxious to see it on her.

After all, what man wouldn’t expect to see his wife wear the items he bought for her?

Thinking of this, she clicked on the video. But before she could take a look, there was a knock on the door.

Janice was stunned. There were only her and Christopher in the house, so it must be him. Thinking of this, her first reaction was to switch off the video. However, she found that the media player suddenly got stuck and couldn’t be turned off.

Janice was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. She turned off the computer in a hurry.

When Christopher came in and saw her panicking, he frowned and asked, "What’s wrong? Why is your face so red?"

Janice felt extremely guilty. She said hurriedly, "Oh, the computer suddenly went dead. I’m frantic."

As she spoke, she subconsciously wiped the sweat off her forehead.

Christopher stared at her face. "Is that so? Let me have a look."

As he spoke, he walked toward the computer. How could Janice let him see that video? If he saw, she would be utterly embarrassed.

Hence, she rushed forward to stop Christopher. "No... no need. I’ll just take it to the store tomorrow to fix it. Why didn’t you dry your hair? Come on. I’ll help you do it."

As she spoke, she hurriedly pushed Christopher out of the room.

Christopher felt that she was a little strange but he didn’t think too much about it.

In the bedroom, Janice was blowing Christopher’s hair dry. She thought of her absurd behavior just now. How could she think to rely on those videos to overcome her psychological barrier?

That was such an unreliable thought.

However, it also reminded her of the psychologist Yvonne had introduced before.

Last time, she made a big mistake in letting Christopher go.

It should have been her who should see a psychologist.

With that thought in mind, Janice sent a WhatsApp message to Yvonne before bed.

She hoped to make an appointment with the expert.

The next morning, Yvonne replied.

"Janice, you’re really lucky. I’ve already made an appointment with the clinic for 10 o’clock tomorrow morning."

Seeing Yvonne’s reply, Janice thanked her.

She then got up, washed up, and went to the TV station.

"Morning."

In the corridor, Janice greeted her colleagues.

She saw Denise walking towards her from a distance.

"Morning, Director Kelshore."

Janice nodded at Denise.

Denise had mixed feelings when she saw Janice.

She had thought Janice and Rob were a couple, she never expected that she was married to Christopher.

So, during this period, had she been a complete fool?

Denise felt a little depressed. It was not Janice’s fault, but in her opinion, Janice was still responsible for misleading her.

At least, she did not reveal her relationship with the sponsor.

Thinking of this, Denise stopped Janice and said, "Janice, why didn’t you tell me earlier about your relationship with Chris?"

Hearing Denise’s words, Janice was stunned. It was only then that she recalled what had happened in Christopher’s office yesterday.

She said with some guilt, "Director Kelshore, I didn’t mean to hide it. I just didn’t think it was necessary."

"Not necessary?" Denise frowned. "Don’t you know that Eternal Jewelry belongs to Chris?"

Janice was stunned. "Is Eternal Jewelry Christopher’s?"

... 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

She remembered that she had asked Rob about that before. He had said that it had something to do with Christopher, but did not admit that it was actually owned by Christopher.

She said, "Isn’t Eternal Jewelry under Rob’s name?"

Denise snorted. "Janice, come on. You’re Chris’s wife. How could you not know the relationship between Eternal Jewelry and Chris?"

However, Janice merely shook her head.

Denise was a little surprised. After learning about the relationship between Janice and Christopher, the first thing she thought of was that Janice was the reason Eternal Jewelry was willing to sponsor the show.

To put it bluntly, she had benefited from Janice.

But it turned out Janice didn’t even know that Eternal Jewelry belonged to Christopher.

It seemed that Christopher didn’t think much of his wife if he didn’t even tell her about what he owned. Reflecting om this, Denise felt much better.

She said, "It’s normal that you don’t know. Anyway, not many people know about it. By the way, when did you meet Chris? Why haven’t I seen you before?"

Denise was curious about this. After all, Christopher had just returned to the country two months ago.

Moreover, she had checked Janice’s work schedule for the past two years, and found that she had never left Denvolo. Even if she occasionally went on a business trip, it was in a local city and she had never gone abroad.

For the past two years, Christopher had been in Europe. In terms of overlap, there was only two months.

What kind of speed did it take to get married in two months?

With her understanding of Christopher, it was impossible.

Therefore, she was very curious about when they met.

Hearing Denise’s question, Janice felt a little embarrassed. After all, she and Christopher hadn’t known each other long.

"We met two months ago."

Janice replied shyly.

Sure enough, a shocked expression flashed across Denise’s face.

Yet he’s already... married?

Wasn’t that too fast?>

Moreover, in her opinion, Janice did not meet any of the criteria to be Christopher’s partner. After all, Sophie Valen was such an excellent example.

Another look of disbelief flashed across Denise’s face.

She stood there without saying a word and did not seem to have any intention of leaving.

Janice was confused and wanted to leave, but she felt that it was too rude. She waved her hand in front of Denise’s eyes and said, "Director Kelshore."

Only then did Denise come to her senses. Her gaze fell on Janice’s face and she felt incredulous.

She said, "If you have time, tell me about how you met Chris. For now, let’s get back to work first."

Denise left in a hurry.

However, Janice stared at her departing figure, feeling a little strange.

Why was Denise so interested in her relationship with Christopher?

Suddenly her mind turned back to what Denise had just said. Eternal Jewelry belonged to Christopher, but why hadn’t she heard him mention it before?

Thinking of this, she took out her phone and called Christopher. In the office, Christopher was listening to Cecilia’s report. "Mr. Bateman, you have another..."

Halfway through Cecilia’s sentence, Christopher’s phone rang. He saw that it was Janice calling so he motioned for Cecilia to stop before picking up the call.

...

"Christopher, is Eternal Jewelry under your name?" Janice’s question came from the other side of the phone.

Christopher wasn’t surprised. When he met Denise yesterday, he had already expected this to happen.

"Yes, to be exact, it’s a brand created by my mother."

Hearing Christopher’s explanation, Janice did not continue to say anything. In her opinion, no matter who created it, it belonged to Christopher.

She pressed her lips together, "Then did you choose to sponsor the show because of me?"

She was concerned about this association.

Christopher chuckled. "I’m a businessman, so I naturally have my own eye for investment opportunities. Besides, it means a lot to invest in my wife."

"Then aren’t you afraid of losing money?"

After all, the show was new, and she was also an unknown anchor.

Christopher said, "What’s there to lose? Besides, I believe you."

His deep voice was full of affirmation.

Janice felt much more relaxed. But she had to work hard not to let him down now.

She said, "Christopher, don’t worry. I won’t let your investment go to waste."

Christopher smiled. After hanging up, he turned to Cecilia and said, "Continue."

At this time, Cecilia was completely dumbfounded.

Mr. Bateman actually smiled. She actually saw him smile!

This was simply a wonder that had never been seen.

Until the end of her report, Cecilia was still in a dazed state.

She walked out of Christopher’s office and returned to her seat. The more she thought about it, the more amazed she felt.

Although she hadn’t been by Mr. Bateman’s side for a long time, she had already heard that Mr. Bateman well-known in the company for always showing no emotions. In her time here, she had witnessed this too.

But now, Mr. Bateman was smiling so happily.

So, who was the person who had just spoken to Mr. Bateman? Cecilia was very curious.

It seemed necessary for her to report. Thinking of this, she peeked around and then took out her mobile phone to send a WhatsApp message.

Not long after, a message returned. "You must investigate thoroughly."

Cecilia replied with a "yes" before she clicked the screen off.

Meanwhile Janice didn’t expect Denise to be so enthusiastic.

At noon, when she went to the cafeteria for lunch, Denise was already waiting there.

"Janice, tell me how you met Chris."

As soon as she sat down, Denise asked.

Janice stared at Denise’s curious face, surprised.

At first, she thought Denise was just mentioning it casually, but she didn’t expect that she would actually ask.

She did not know how to answer for a moment.

After all, she and Christopher knew each other because of a blind date.

Up to now, she still felt that it was unreal, like in a drama.

She didn’t think Denise could accept the truth.

Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and said, "In fact, there’s nothing to talk about. It’s just an ordinary blind date."

"A blind date?"

Denise couldn’t believe what she had just heard.

After all, with Christopher’s character and wealth, why would he need a blind date?

Thinking of this, Denise shook her head. "That’s impossible. Why would Chris go on a blind date?"

After Denise blurted those words, she was afraid Janice would misunderstand her. "Of course, I don’t mean to belittle blind dates. I just think Chris doesn’t seem like the type who would go on blind dates."
