Flash Marriage: My Penniless Billionaire Husband
Chapter 45: Are You Stalking Me?
Janice was quite speechless.
"I said it was a misunderstanding. Why won’t you listen to my explanation?"
"Well, what about his help?" Christopher asked.
Janice said, "Didn’t I tell you yesterday? I’m sure it was him who helped me. Why are you still asking me this?"
Christopher frowned while staring at her face for a few seconds, then asked, "Do you believe what he said?"
"This isn’t a question of whether you believe it or not. This is the truth."
"The truth? The truth is that he lied to you. He’s a liar." Christopher said angrily.
Janice felt that he was being unreasonable. "Christopher, can you stop talking like that? He’s my boss. Please show some respect."
"It is because he is your boss so that I have to expose him. Don’t you know what his real purpose is?"
He could tell that the expression in that man’s eyes was clear.
"Christopher, what do you mean? Are you suspecting me of cheating on you?"
Janice was a little annoyed.
Seeing that she was still defending that man, he said in a bad tone, "I didn’t mean that."
"I know what you mean."
"Well, after I’ve said so much, you still don’t believe me. But when I said he was a liar, you became angry. Who is he? Why are you in such a hurry to protect him?"
Christopher was also getting worked up.
Hearing his words, Janice felt guilty. But even so, she still said firmly, "Yes, I believe him. Even if he is a liar, I believe he has his reasons. But why did you appear there? Are you stalking me?"
Hearing Janice’s question, Christopher was stunned.
Seeing his expression, Janice thought, "I knew it."
She then said angrily, "Christopher, why are you stalking me? Why do you interfere in my business? Even though I married you, I still have my own life. You can’t get involved in everything I do."
Without waiting for Christopher’s response, she immediately stopped a car and directly left.
Christopher stood there, his dark eyes filled with coldness.
When Rob came out, he saw Mr. Bateman standing there, looking very angry. He hesitated for a moment and stepped forward. "Mr. Bateman." Christopher didn’t say anything. He silently got in the car.
When Rob sat in the driver’s seat, he ordered, "Let’s go."
Rob carefully looked at Mr. Bateman on the back seat and asked, "Mr. Bateman, you don’t have dinner yet. Do you want to find a place..."
"No, let’s go to a nightclub."
Christopher interrupted.
Rob silently drove the car.
When Janice returned home, she was still very angry.
Christopher dared to suspect her.
Although Benjamin was her ex-boyfriend, she had never wanted to have an affair. How could he doubt her?
"And he even stalked me."
Janice was even angrier. She hung up her bag while Nino circled her and whined. Janice squatted down and picked up Nino. "Nino, are you hungry?"
...
Nino shook his head around as if he was looking for something.
Janice fondled his head and said, "Relax. Let me get your food."
She put Nino down and fetched food. Then she poured it into the food basin.
Janice also felt hungry and realized that she hadn’t eaten much today.
She looked at the time. It was still early. Then she went to the kitchen and fortunately found some instant noodles. When she was about to make the noodles with boiling water, the phone rang.
She picked it up.
"Janice, just now..."
It was from Benjamin. She answered, "I’m sorry about what had happened just now. I apologize for him."
Then Benjamin said, "To be honest, there is one thing I haven’t explained to you.
Yesterday, I did go to find Tina, but before I could talk to her, she was called away.
So, actually, I didn’t do anything."
Janice was totally surprised by his words. It was not Benjamin?
So who was that?
If so, wouldn’t she have wronged Christopher just now?
Thinking of this, Janice frowned.
Hearing no response, Benjamin asked, "Janice, are you still listening?"
Janice just returned to her senses, but she was no longer in the mood to continue and said, "I’m hanging up."
After hanging up the phone, Janice was a little upset.
Thinking that she had wrongly accused Christopher, she felt a little guilty.
"Forget it. I’ll apologize to him when he comes back."
Then she stopped thinking about it.
However, she ended up waiting at home until ten o’clock. But Christopher still hadn’t come back.
"Why hasn’t he come back yet? Did what I just say hurt him?"
Janice hesitated for a moment, then tried to call Christopher.
On the other side, in the Prestige Club.
Daniel sat opposite Christopher, who was in low spirits. Daniel frowned and asked,
"Chris, what’s wrong with you tonight? You asked me to come, but you just sat there without saying a word."
Christopher just silently picked up the glass of wine.
When he thought of Janice’s words, he could not hold back his anger.
As soon as he drank out the wine, the phone rang.
He picked it up and looked at it. Seeing that it was from Janice, he muted the phone and threw it aside.
Seeing this, Daniel seemed to understand something. He leaned over and asked, "Didn’t you quarrel with your wife, did you?"
Christopher glared at him.
Daniel quickly stopped.
Janice was worried about him since she couldn’t get through for a long time.
It was already so late at night. Could something have happened to him?
Then she couldn’t help feeling anxious.
However, she didn’t have any contact information of his family or friends.
"What should I do?" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
She suddenly thought of Rob Hanson, but unfortunately, she did not have his phone number either.
But she realized that this house belonged to Rob, so she tried to find his contact details throughout the house.
However, she searched all the drawers and cabinets in the bedroom but failed to find anything.
Then she suddenly thought of the study.
...
In the study, Janice rummaged through the shelves. She didn’t find any contact information about Rob, but she found a golden card in a book.
Janice picked up the business card and found that "Christopher Bateman" was written on it.
However, there was only the name on it, and no other information.
The presence of the business card was very unusual.
Why did Christopher have such a card?
After all, he didn’t even have a job.
But Janice didn’t study these things further. She had to find Rob’s contact information. After all, the most important thing now was to find Christopher.
She searched the house again, but still found nothing.
Just when Janice was at a loss, the phone suddenly rang.
She quickly picked it up. It was from Yvonne.
"Hi Janice, I’m really sorry for what happened earlier. I had a small emergency. Are you still in the restaurant?"
Janice said, "No, I’m already back home."
"I see."
Yvonne felt so sorry.
"By the way, Yvonne, I remember that I once asked you to test Rob’s sexual orientation. Do you have his contact information?"
Yvonne thought for a while and said, "Wait, I seem to have his business card."
Then Yvonne searched through her bag and found a business card. "Let me read you his phone number."
"Okay."
After getting Rob’s number, Janice quickly dialed. And she felt that this number was very familiar. It seemed that she had seen it somewhere before.
"Hello?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Janice remembered that this number belonged to the anonymous informant who had provided her with clues last time.
Was that Rob Hanson?
"Hello?"
This time, Janice came back to her senses and asked, "Is this Mr. Hanson?"
"Yes."
Rob answered.
Janice held back her doubts and stated her original purpose, "Mr. Hanson, this is Janice. Is Christopher with you?"
Rob now was just standing at the door of the club’s private box. It was Daniel who asked him to come to pick up Christopher. Hearing Janice’s question, he said, "Yes."
Janice felt relieved and said, "Mr. Hanson, please put Christopher on the phone."
Seeing Christopher who was sitting with his eyes closed, Rob didn’t dare to disturb him. He just said, "It’s not convenient now."
Janice couldn’t understand the meaning of "not convenient". "Doesn’t Christopher want to talk to me?" She thought. "Well, I was quite rude before, he has a right to be angry." "But it’s late. He should at least tell me where he is." "Where are you now? I’ll come to you." Rob didn’t know how to answer.
"Since Mr. Bateman had always been hiding his identity, what if Janice finds out his identity after she comes here?"
Rob was not sure if he should tell her.
Besides, given Mr. Bateman’s current state, he couldn’t decide by himself.
When Rob was struggling, Daniel came out. Seeing him still standing there, he frowned. "Why don’t you come in? Chris is inside."
