The Unexpected Marriage novel Chapter 22

She took many shopping bags back home. It was not her home but Darren's apartment. She hung the clothes one by one in the wardrobe.

His eyes swept around the room, finding that this apartment was warmer than it had been before Joan came. In the past, he rarely stayed overnight here, only when he was in an extreme depression. Nobody knew that he had bought a small apartment here except his assistant Selina and his driver.

So the house was just a place for sleep. There were only two bottles of red wine and empty goblets in the cupboard, only toothbrush and a razor on the washing table. There was a white shirt in the wardrobe, which, though also belonged to Armani, was stained with a small red wine near the collar.

Since he was a neat freak, he decided to use it as his temporary pajama.

Joan tidied up her clothes, and saw Darren patrolling around. She went on, "I thought this was another detention center if you didn't tell me it was your house. I can't find any trace that someone has lived here. Look, your kitchen is so clean that there is not even an ant. "

"No one knows here. I don't live here often, either." He said gently.

What a wily woman! Since Joan came here, she had not changed much except for the fridge, which was rich. She took out two jars of ice cola and handed them to him. "Is this one of your secret place prepared to do bad things?"

"But now in this place... There's only you. " He swallowed a mouthful of the cola and took a deep breath. He approached her deliberately, "How about I stay here tonight, Mrs. Lu?"

Joan strode away and said, "Don't forget we had an arranged marriage. I'm just your nominal girlfriend. I'm not going to satisfy your girlfriend's duties! If you are done with it, please leave now! It's too late! "

"How could you kill the donkey after taking advantage of it?" He grasped the can with an incredible force.

"Yes, you are a donkey," Joan said in a hurry. When he came back to his senses, she swiftly slipped into her bedroom and locked the door.

As soon as she set foot in the room, she slammed the door with force. Her speed was so fast that he had no time to stop.

'How dare you lock me outside! I will let you know that you are dead one day!' He swore to himself.

On the day of Darren's grandpa's birthday, Joan was woken up by a rush of doorbell. She checked the time on her phone. It was only half past four. Why was he stopping her from sleeping this early in the morning?

She opened the door, finding Selina's working face. She put on an official smile and the man who was more charming than a girl standing in front of her.

"Miss Zhang? What the hell is wrong with your young boss this early? " She yawned as she let them in.

Selina leisurely introduced the handsome man behind her, "Miss Gu, this is the top designer who is specialized in styling for a first-line Star: Abbott. Mr. Lu has invited him to help you. "

The high-end fishtail dress would match a noble hairstyle and makeup.

But she didn't have to get up so early. The birthday party started at nine o'clock and he asked her to do makeup at half past four? She hadn't eaten yet.

However, as Darren had given out the order, she had no choice but to follow it.
