Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Henry was preoccupied with the luggage, as Zoe Gil dashed in with a backpack.

The instant she stepped into the vegetable-filled yard, she was completely captivated.

She had read about this place, and she knew that they grew their own veggies here, and if they were interested, they could pick and eat them as well, just like a real farmer.

They could buy meat and spices from the local market.

She had been living a lavish life with Archie, and it was nice to experience life as a regular couple every now and again.

Henry , who was standing behind her, was moved by her happiness. He sped up and carried their belongings into the home.

Henry , it’s lovely here. Hurry in and have a look. You will definitely love it.”

Zoe went inside and hurried back out, clutching his arm, to tell him what she saw.

Henry took a glance about – it was modest but gave the impression of living in solitude – and he nodded to her.

They carried their belongings into the two-story villa with quite some history.

Zoe stepped outdoors after walking around the house. She was overjoyed to discover a flower garden there.

The owner should be someone who enjoys his life.”

She stated this as she dashed down the path to have a better look at the colorful flowers in the garden.

Henry , on the other hand, walked out with two glasses of water and handed one to her.

“Our garden at home has more flowers than this one, but you’ve never claimed I’m someone who enjoys my life.

Natalia gave him a sidelong glance, saying,

“It’s different.”

“You did not grow those flowers. Mrs. Dottie asked a gardener to take care of them. You will only glance at them when you are in a good mood and will disregard them most of the time. So, it’s completely different, okay?”

Henry realized she was correct and didn’t

argue.

“Hungry? Let’s go for a walk and get something to eat!”

“Okay.” Zoe gave a nod.

Zoe prepared a couple t-shirt to change the way he dressed and let his CEO husband feel the satisfaction of being a typical couple.

Henry came out shortly after changing. He appeared more relaxed and cheerful wearing a casual white t-shirt. Zoe wore the same style but in a smaller size. She wore her hair in a bun, and they looked like a great match.

Henry’s eyes sparkled as he looked at her, and they went out hand in hand.

They decided to have a look and eat anythin they wanted along the way. Soon after, they came into a delicate tiny bistro not far from the farmhouse.

The street was rather quiet because there were few people at this time of day, but the scenery was lovely and the atmosphere was pleasant.

They walked in and sat down.

The owners were a couple in their thirties.

They looked quite young with a six-year-old son.

They were also from Ambario but moved here after falling in love with the place. They made a living by running an Ambario bistro.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

The owner, Hannah Morris, was a delightful person who insisted them to just call her Hannah.

Zoe was overjoyed to meet someone from her own country in a foreign land and quickly grew close to her calling her just Hannah.

Hannah came to take their order, while

Zoe asked her what she would recommend.

Hannah then recommended some of the finest dishes to them and . Zoe ordered three dishes after checking with henry.

After handing off their order to her husband in the kitchen, she served them beverages and chatted with them.

They were the only ones dining in the bistro because it wasn’t yet mealtime.

“We primarily serve dishes from our hometown here. I’m not sure if you will like them, but many people have stated that our dishes taste delicious. If you don’t like any of the dishes, just let me know and I will make you something else.” explained Hannah.

Zoe said, “You won’t be able to earn then. That’s okay if they are not good, but if they are tasty, then your customers would have to lie to have more to eat!”

“Ha-ha, I won’t say the same to everyone, but you don’t seem to be someone who would take advantage of others,” she waved her hands.

She paused and raised her brow, “Are you students?” she said. “You seem to be students who skipped class for a vacation.”

Zoe blushed and shifted her gaze to henry.

He was attractive, and there was no indication of aging on his face.

And he was dressed casually in a white t-shirt

today and seemed to be enjoying himself because he was with her, so he appeared much younger than anyone his age.

“We are not students,” Zoe said.

“Really? This gentleman beside you looks quite young, and you two seem to be a good match. I thought you were students.”

Zoe .., she was already twenty-four, and Henry was five years older, nearly thirty.

It would be ridiculous to look like students.

Henry , on the other hand, was overjoyed to hear what she said, especially when she said that they appeared to be a good match.

He looked pleased as well, and he immediately ordered two bottles of drinks.

He didn’t drink, so he put both in front ofZoe i and asked her to save one for later on their walk.

Since Hannah had been so nice to them, Zoe asked her happily, “Hannah, do you know any great spots around here?”

“There are so many lovely places! If you go east from here, you will see the Smoking Sea. It is close and offers the finest view.”

“The sea is misty, giving it the appearance of a paradise. If you walk north, you’ll notice a mysterious temple on top of Mount Praia. Make a wish, and it will be granted. Nine out of ten visitors will visit the temple, and many couples like going on dates there as well. If you’re interested, you could go tomorrow because it’s a little late today. Climbing to the peak takes at least half a day.”

“Oh, I heard there’ll be a meteor shower here tomorrow, right?’ Zoe inquired, her eyes wide with curiosity.

She looked up tourist attractions and weather forecasts before coming, and it’s been predicted that there would be a meteor shower tomorrow.

“Meteor shower?” Hannah shook her head and frowned, “I’ve never heard of that, but you may have a look. Even without the meteor shower, there are plenty of places to visit around the mountain.” Zoe greed with a nod.

The food was served at this point. Hannah excused herself and brought her kid to the back for schoolwork.

Although it was a tiny bistro, the food was delicious.

It lacked the glitz and glam of a five-star restaurant, yet it was enveloped by a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
