Although the Henderson family was considered as one of the wealthy families in the country, Chloe had never been to such a place to eat.
Chloe flipped through the menu and finally gave up.
She really did not know what to order.
John did not force her to order anything. Instead, he ordered some dishes and added, “Bring out the bottle of Lover’s Lost that I left here, I want to celebrate with my wife.”
“Sure!”
“Mr. Foster,” Chloe said nervously when the waiter left.
John’s face sank. “Call me hubby!”
Uhh….
“Fine!” Chloe had no choice but to compromise. “Well, I just want to say that if you’re only marrying me because we slept together, then I don’t think that’s necessary. You’re a man, you won’t risk anything, and I don’t need you to take responsibility for me. If you really feel wronged then why not be compensated in other ways, will that work?”
John smiled playfully and said, “Nope!”
Chloe did not know what to say.
This man really was as stubborn as a mule, was he not?
Chloe did not know what to say, so she just pursed her lips and sulked.
For some reason, they were the only two customers in Jerusalem tonight. Chloe was not sure if it was because John had booked out the whole restaurant or that the business was going slow due to their pricey dishes.
After a while, the waiter brought over the wine. As the waiter was aerating the wine, they sat face to face without saying a word.
Once the wine was aerated, the waiter poured each of them a glass and left. John picked up the glass of wine in front of him and said, “You really want to know why I’m marrying you?”
Chloe nodded vigorously.
She really wanted to know why. After all, this man in front of her was too impressive from every aspect, it would be far-fetched for her to believe that he was just marrying her out of responsibility.
Chloe never believed that there was love nor hate that happened without a reason in this world.
John narrowed his eyes and looked at her with a slight smile. He had a casual yet charming look as he held his wine glass and waved at her suddenly.
Chloe was a little confused, but she still stood up and walked towards him.
However, she did not expect to be grabbed by her wrist as soon as she stood in front of him. She could only scream in shock as she fell into his arms.
“What are you doing?”
Chloe panicked, her little hand pressed against his chest as she struggled to get up.
“Don’t move.”
As John held Chloe by her waist and hugged her tightly, he whispered, “Don’t play with fire.”
Chloe was stunned.
John’s deep, gorgeous voice sounded beside her ear as if a cello had played a deep tone. It was really sexy.
“Do you feel it? This is why I married you.”
Ahhhhhh!
Chloe blushed instantly, feeling embarrassed and angry at the same time. She then pushed him away and stood up immediately.
“You, you, rascal!
The man smirked slightly. He felt satisfied seeing her all annoyed that his eyes were filled with joy.
“We’re husband and wife now, isn’t it normal for a husband to tease his wife a little?”
Chloe’s face flushed red with anger and she was speechless.
Luckily, the waiter brought out the food at that moment which helped reduce their awkwardness.
