Flash Marriage: He Made My Jaw Drop

Flash Marriage He Made My Jaw Drop

Vivienne went to the supermarket downstairs to buy groceries.

Damien had been delayed for a day, and the assistant called him a few times, and there were several

documents that he needed to review and approve.

So Damien went to study to get busy with business and called several senior executives for a video

conference.

It was an hour after Damien finished his work, when he walked out of the study, two home–cooked

dishes were placed on the dining table, and Vivienne was still busy in the kitchen.

Looking at Vivienne’s busy figure and the steaming meals, Damien felt that life was a little more real for

him.

In fact, the life of an ordinary couple was like this. They both had their own jobs to do, but after work,

they shared meals together.

“Work finished?” Vivienne came out with a bowl of soup and said with a smile, “It’s ready to eat. You

must be hungry.”

Vivienne just came back from shopping and heard Damien having a video conference in the study, so

she didn’t bother him.

It must be very busy in such a listed company. He had been with her all day today. Thinking of this, she

felt a little bit sorry.

Vivienne served the meal, and the two sat down to eat.

Damien looked at the dishes on the table, and said, “You are good at cooking.”

“You must be busy at work. I will cook the meals at home in the future. Do you need me to prepare a

lunch box for you? I will prepare it m in the morning, so you can take them to the company.” Vivienne

said, “I see that many people bring their own meals to work, it’s nutritious and economical.”

Damien didn’t want Vivienne to get up so early in the morning, and said, “No, the company has a

cafeteria, so we don’t spend money on meals.”

“Okay.” Vivienne nodded, took out the bank card that Damien gave her before, and said, “Here. You

can keep your money yourself.”

In front of Mrs. Quinn, Vivienne didn’t want to reject Damien’s kindness, so she accepted it

temporarily.

The money here was all saved by Damien. They had only known each other for a short time, so she

really dared not take it.

Damien didn’t expect Vivienne to return it to him, and said, “This is a family fund. Running a home

needs lots of money. You just bought a car, so you probably don’t have much money on you.

Groceries, daily necessities, they all cost money, and every month‘ s salary will be charged to this

card.”

Vivienne really didn’t have much money, but she didn’t have the habit of spending money on men

either.

“Then I will keep accounts every day. I have downloaded this kind of app. It is also clear where every

money is used. We have agreed on the AA. So I will pay half of the monthly expenses.” Vivienne also

had her own principles, living under the AA system, which was agreed upon before.

Damien gave in and said, “It’s all up to you.”

Only the AA system could save Vivienne from such a big

psychological burden.

Vivienne felt at ease, “Then it’s decided like this. By the way, how much is the monthly rent here?”

Damien was actually not very clear. According to the market, the approximate quotation was, “4,600 a

month.”

A house with three bedrooms and two living rooms cost more than 4,000 a month in Washington DC,

which was really not expensive.

Vivienne nodded, “Then I will pay 1,000 for the rent.”

She couldn’t afford half of the rent per month. It seemed that she had to find a way to increase her

income.

Damien frowned and looked at Vivienne, “Vivienne, I married a wife not to share the pressure, with me,

so I hope that after you marry me, it won’t increase your financial pressure. I earn more than you, so I

can pay the rent. You don’t have to worry about it.”

This time, Damien didn’t regress. If she shared the rent and the living expenses, she wouldn’t have any

money left.

Damien’s tone was tough, Vivienne wanted to say something more, but he said, “Vivienne, marriage

needs to be managed, not do the maths. There will be no fair boundary for the division of

responsibilities. This is like when you are pregnant in the future, I can’t share half of the hard work of

your pregnancy.”

Pregnant?

This was the second time Vivienne heard this today, and she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

“Then, okay.” Vivienne noticed that Damien was angry, and said nothing more, “Let’s eat.”

Vivienne’s cooking was not as good as the chef’s, but it was still good. Damien ate a lot, and the two of

them ate up both dishes.

Staring at the empty plate, Vivienne muttered, “I need to cook more next time.”

Damien stood up to clean up the table.

Vivienne said, “I’ll do it.”

“I’ll do it.” Damien held the plates and said, “It’s you who insist on the AA system, so you cook, I wash

the dishes, it’s reasonable.”

The money was shared, and housework should also be shared.

Vivienne wanted to do more because she thought that she was living here.

But she was also worried that she had calculated too clearly and hurt Damien’s self–esteem.

In the end, Damien went to wash the dishes, and Vivienne took a peek at Damien who was wearing an Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

apron and washing dishes by the sink.

The charm of a man who did housework had increased a lot.

She found that living with Damien wasn’t so bad.

If the employees of Skyreach Group and the elites of the upper class saw that the head of the Smyth

Family, who could cause. financial turmoil with just a snap, lived in such a small house with his new

wife and was even washing dishes, they would drop their jaws.

Vivienne moved her eyes, and then the phone rang, it was Lainey calling.

Vivienne went to the balcony to answer the phone, “Lainey, what’s the matter?”

“Well, Professor Summer is also going to the class reunion on Friday. He just called me and asked

about you. I think he wants to meet you.”

Hearing this, Vivienne frowned in embarrassment.

Professor Summer was Vivienne’s class teacher in high school. He treated her very well and she was

grateful. If her teacher wanted to meet her, she couldn’t skip this class reunion.

But if she went, she would meet Hendrix.
