Chapter 23 It’s not Called That
When Helena woke up from her nap, it was already eight in the morning.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Jasper was not in his room, the bed was not warm enough for him to have slept on, and there was no sign of him sleeping on the sofa.
He didn’t come back?
He slept in the guest room?
Helena couldn’t guess and lifted the covers to get out of bed to take a look and she saw another red object fall under the bed. When she bent down to pick it up, it was a red book. Turning it over to look at the front, there were three big, bold letters: Marriage Certificate!
She opened it and read inside.
A wedding photograph: her and Jasper.
The bearer next to the wedding photograph: Helena Yip.
The names of the couple are written below: Helena Yip and Jasper Howard.
Helena was petrified of the scene, not knowing what was happening, she got up and ran outside: “Jasper, Jasper, Jasper, where are you? ” After pushing several doors without seeing him, she ran to the stairway and saw him downstairs feeding the fish.
He turned his head and looked at her with a calm gaze.
With another burst of wind, she ran upstairs to him and held up the marriage certificate for him to see: “What is this? What does it mean? Is this a real marriage certificate, or is it a fake one that you paid for?”
Jasper “calmly” continued to feed his little fish.
What was she dressed as? Last night when he looked at her from the side of the bed, she was covered with a quilt and only one face was showing. Now he saw her all over, who was wearing his white shirt. It was obviously just a white shirt, but she was wearing it as a white dress, which was indescribably sexy and flirtatious. Two long legs were exposed, thin, straight and fair. There were no shoes on her feet, and her toes were cute and lovable.
He had never seen a woman’s feet before and had no idea that they could look so lovely.
Loved it! Loved it!
A tug on his arm and a huge surge of anger yanked him over, “Say it! What do you mean if you don’t say anything? Is this real or not, you’ve got to give me an answer! You can’t just throw this at me and said nothing!”
Jasper tried to be calm: “Miss Yip, please respect this red book. It’s called a marriage certificate.”
Helena didn’t understand what he meant: “So? Fine! Fine! So, is this marriage real or fake? Can I take it out to deceive the Yip family?”
Jasper said, “I went under the flyover and asked, they charge fifty for a fake license. Joey said that the Civil Affairs Bureau was cheaper than under the bridge, charging only nine. I’ve been poor lately, so I thought I’d save as much as I could!”
“You’re the richest man, how can you be poor? You …… You wanted to save money, so you went to the Civil Affairs Bureau and got a real marriage certificate? You got a real marriage license because it was cheap? Damn it! Jasper, your brain has no problem, right?”
“You are unmarried, I am unmarried. If you want to get married, what if I make it happen?”
“……”
“You saved me once. I promise you one condition. You think there’s a problem?”
No problem!
But it felt, well, unreal!
She ran to him to get married because of her dream. She hadn’t thought it would work out, let alone so quickly.
When she looked at the marriage certificate in her hand, she suddenly felt vain: “When I get out of the Yip’s, I will do a divorce with you. During this period, I will not announce anything to the public, they will not know that you are married. If you fall in love with someone else during this period, I can divorce you at any time. You don’t have to worry about me dragging you around, and I won’t ask you for a single penny of property or compensation. I know that marriage is the deal, I help you and you help me.”
Jasper’s features twitched and his breath grew heavy: What did she know!
