Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Zoe had a very positive impression of Laura.

Although there were many newcomers nowadays, most of them were trapped by the lure of fame and fortune. Most of them were impetuous, and only a few were able to work hard on improving their acting skills.

Laura came from a poor family and had a rough childhood, but thanks to her miserable childhood experiences, she had seen the world early in her life and had a deeper understanding of many things than her peers.

It was precisely because of this that she understood that acting was the basis of a performer’s life, and the rest was just momentary glamour.

Seeing her in Star Entertainment was like finding a piece of beautiful jade in a pile of rubbles.

Zoe was very pleased, and coincidentally, the agent who brought them back immediately called Laura into the office.

Laura was also surprised to see Zoe.

Although there were not many interactions between them, everyone in the company knew Natalia was the PR Ace in Century Entertainment. There was no case that she could not handle properly.

A few days ago, she heard that the company had a new boss, but she never expected it to be Natalia!

However, as a saying goes, a dragon will not stay in a pond for long. Sooner or later, it will soar to the skies.

Thinking about Zoe’s abilities, Laura could

not help but feel relieved.

She walked into the office with a smiling face. “Miss Zoe, you are looking for me?”

Zoe looked up and smiled upon seeing Laura’s face.

“Yes, come in and sit down!”

When Laura sat down on the chair opposite her, Natalia started an in-depth discussion about the vision of the company as well as her current plan on artists like her.

The company’s Strategy Departments and Advertising Departments were basically not working now.

Therefore, some important planning regarding artists had to be done by her personally.

After two-hour discussion, they finally worked out a rough plan.

Laura graduated from a renowned drama school and loved acting, so her main task at present was filming in TV and films.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Zoe planned to send her to two more popular variety shows first to raise her popularity.

After Laura left, Zoe called other artists in and chatted with them.

Several artists were not very satisfied with the company, so she did not force them to stay.

However, Zoe mentioned that if they were willing to stay, she would treat them equally, and the resources they required in the future would be won by themselves according to their own capabilities.

If they were not willing to stay, she understood and would not force them to.

All liquidation damages specified in the contract were canceled, and they didn’t have to

pay a penny if they decided to leave.

Zor knew that these artists did not have much choice when they signed the contract with Star Entertainment.

After becoming a member of Star Entertainment, they did not make any achievements, much less money.

Some of them were in a dilemma, but Zoe did not urge them. She asked them go back and think about it thoroughly before giving her a reply tomorrow.

After they left, she stayed in the office alone and went over their profiles carefully again.

Then, according to her impression from their previous talks, she noted their strengths and weaknesses carefully, as well as their suitable development directions in the future.

After finishing everything, it was already very late.

Zoe stretched her arms, raised her wrist to check the time, only to find that it was already eight o’clock in the evening.

Her stomach rumbled with hunger.

She stood up and was about to get something to eat when she suddenly thought of something, and her face changed.

She hurriedly pulled her phone out and saw that there were indeed several missed calls on the screen.

All of them were from Henry.

Oh, OMG!

She was used to mute her phone while she was working, and she lost track of time when she was totally occupied.

The man must have returned home and found that she was not there. Henry called to ask her whereabouts.

Zoe wondered if he was angry when she did not answer his calls.

Zoe packed her belongings and called him back on her way out.

The call was answered as soon as it was connected.

“Have you finished your work?”

The man’s voice was low and deep. She could not tell if he was angry or not.

Zoe laughed awkwardly and said sheepishly. “Uh… I’m sorry! I muted my phone and didn’t hear your calls.”

The other side was quiet for a couple of seconds.

“Come downstairs when you’re done!”

“Huh?”

“I’m waiting for you downstairs.”

Zoe’s eyes widened with surprise, and she was just about to say something when the call ended abruptly.

She could only go downstairs in a hurry.

As expected, she saw a black Rolls-Royce parked by the entrance.

The smooth outline flashed under the streaks of light from cars passing by, attracting the attention of many people.

From time to time, the passers-by cast envious glances, or pointed at it quietly, or whispering something.

Zoe covered her face in embarrassment.

‘Big Boss, couldn’t you just find a more inconspicuous place to park the car? Why are you making a scene blocking the entrance?’

The “Low-Profile” Zoe quickly ran over and whizzed into the car before others could react.

In the driver’s seat, Brian was startled by her.

If Brian did not know her better, he would have thought that she was chased after by someone!

Henry was as calm as ever. After Natalia got inside the car, he told Brian to drive to the restaurant he booked earlier.

Zoe was a little surprised to hear the address.

“Don’t you want to go home for dinner today?”

Henry was flipping through a financial magazine, and said in a low voice, “Mrs. Han, do you know what time it is now?”

Zoe was stunned and only then did she remember that it was already past 8 pm.

When she first arrived at Han Mansion, Mrs. Dottie told her about the rules in the family.

No dinner would be served after 8 pm. That was the rule the Old Mr. Han set when he sent her to take care of Zoe.

This was to prevent his grandson from working overtime. Besides Archie, everyone in the Han family had to follow this rule.

Natalia smiled awkwardly.

“Sorry! I was so focused in my work that I lost track of time! Um… to make it up to you, the dinner tonight is on me.”

Henry finally raised his head.

His dark eyes looked at her, with a hidden trace of laughter.

“Really?”

“Of course.”

“Fine”

The car soon arrived at the entrance of the restaurant.

When they got out of the car, Natalia looked up and saw two large words in front of her.

Mountain Club

What kind of place was this?

Zoe thought she was a native of Julio, since she had lived here for twenty years. How come she had never heard of this place?

Nevertheless, she did not think much about it.

It was a good thing that she hadn’t been here before. Now, she came to know a new place.

Henry took her hand naturally and they walked inside together.

There was a professional doorman standing at the gate. After asking about the private room they booked, he led them inside politely.

The club was spacious, with green hills and lush plants, and fine gravel paths that gave her a feeling of being in the countryside.

The scenery was also unique, especially during night. Zoe could see that every stone and tree had been carefully decorated.

Zoe quickly thought that for the club with such an elaborate arrangement, it had to be privately owned and only open to designated guests.

That was why she never heard of it before.
