Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage

Chapter 9 The Cloyingly Sweet Wedding Night

Chapter 9 The Intensely Sweet Wedding Night

The moment Adeline saw Curtis, she only felt her cheeks were burning, and she wished she could dig a hole to get in!

Curtis chuckled. Seeing that she was about to bite her lips to bleed, he could not bear urging her, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore! Just go to take a shower. I had done it in the guest room just now."

Adeline nodded, quickly opened the cabinet, took a pyjamas, and ran into the bathroom.

When the bathroom door was closed, only then Curtis pulled a long face.

Just now, he went to the study to deal with work, and took a shower after then, so he did not pay attention to the situation on Adeline's side.

He thought she had been quietly preparing for lesson, but unexpectedly she seemed to have an argument with someone.

Seeing her scarlet eyes just now, he wished he could pull the person on the other end of the phone out and peel his skin off!

Curtis gently tapped the phone on the bed, and found it was turned off, so he did not turn it on again.

Forget it. There was no rush to find this person out.

There was always a chance!

It was more important to have a good wedding night with his wife right now.

Curtis dialed a number to arrange his plan...

When Adeline came out after drying her hair, she realised the bedroom had changed!

The floor was scattered with some rose petals, and decorated with heart-shaped imitation candle lights.

There were a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses on the table.

And Curtis was waiting for her in dark grey silk pyjamas, holding a bouquet of red roses.

Seeing her coming out, Curtis pushed the wheelchair over with one hand, and held the rose to the hands of Adeline, who was stunned.

"Mrs. Riley, happy wedding night."

Adeline felt very happy. The joy of receiving flowers diluted a lot of the sadness her elder brother had brought her.

After all, she was also an ordinary girl. She would also be happy when she received roses.

Moreover, this was her first time receiving flowers.

In the past, Logan was not quite good at doing this.

Once at a time, both of them went shopping during festivals. A little sister grabbed Logan by the edge of his shirt and asked him to buy flowers for her. Logan would always said they lived a frugal life and did not like this kind of frivolous things.

Therefore, Adeline never received flowers.

Adeline really did not expect that she actually received the first bouquet of roses in her life from Uncle Curtis.

Adeline curled her lips and thanked him, "Thank you for sending me roses, happy wedding night."

Curtis was happy. He took Adeline by the hand and led her to the small table in the corner of the room, and motioned her to sit down.

This small table was placed by the window, with a 2-seater loose back sofa. The scenery of the river could be seen, which was very romantic.

However, Curtis was not sitting on the sofa at this time. He was still sitting in his wheelchair.

He opened the red wine, and softly asked, "Have a drink?"

Adeline subconsciously shook her head, "I can't drink."

She had been a good girl since young. She had never drunk a little alcohol.

"You're at home, so don't be afraid to drink a little. If you can't drink, then don't drink it outside."

Curtis said while pouring wine.

"The wine is very rare. It was made in the year you were born. It has been kept until now. The taste is very pure and not bitter."

Adeline thought the same. Both of them were husband and wife, and they were in their own home, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"Okay, I'll drink a little." Adeline grabbed the red wine glass, took a small sip, and her eyes immediately lit up, "It's very sweet."

Curtis smiled in joy. He raised his wine glass and gently touched his with Adeline's, with a crisp and pleasant sound of "Ding".

"Mrs. Riley, happy wedding night."

"You too!" Adeline took another sip, feeling very delighted, and then asked again, "Is this wine very expensive? I heard the older it is, the more expensive it will be."

A look of unnaturalness flashed across Curtis's face.

Of course the wine was expensive.

When he saw this bottle of wine that happened to be sealed in the year of her birth at the auction, he was crazy to bid it, thinking that one day he could sit and taste it with her.

So no matter how the opponents raised their cards, he would add 20,000 dollar each time he raised his cards, as if he was determined to win.

In the end, the bottle of wine was auctioned for 680, 000 dollar.

He was still unhappy, and insisted on giving 700,000 to the organizer, saying it was for a good omen.

But it was really worth using this wine on the "wedding night".

Seeing that Curtis did not answer, Adeline thought she had said something wrong, and could not help asking, "What's wrong?"

Curtis nodded with bent lips, "It's indeed expensive. But it's a congratulatory gift from a friend."

Then, Curtis took two bags from the side and put them into Adeline's hands, "And this. It's the wedding gifts from the previous two brothers. All in your hands."

Adeline held the thick stack of bags, estimating the value was about 2,000 dollar, and quickly declined, "No, your brothers gave it to you, so you just keep it." All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"These are all yours. The wedding gifts they gave me should be handed over to my wife." Curtis softly said.

Adeline felt inexplicably touched.

She remembered receiving money from her relatives when she was a child. Her mother took it away every time she just got it, saying that she would save it for her.

She believed it at first.

Afterwards, she accidentally ran across that her mother gave the money that had taken from her to her younger sister, Viola.

That time, Viola was young. She was not as thoughtless and rude as she was now raised. She shyly asked mother, "Is this not very good for elder sister? If you give it to me, elder sister got nothing."

But mother forced the money into her arms again, "You're a child who will bring good luck to our family. All the good things in this family belong to you. Your elder sister doesn't deserve it as she brings bad luck."

Maybe after repeating these words for years, Viola had also changed over time.

Holding the two bags in front of her eyes, Adeline sincerely said thank you again, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, this is my first time getting money from others."

Looking at the roses, Adeline said again, "So are the flowers."

Curtis was slightly taken aback.

Seeing Adeline's slightly red eyes when she said she got the money for the first time, he thought of her wolf-like family!

How dared they did this to her!

But when he heard about the roses, he was a little annoyed again, and he unconsciously raised his voice a little.

"Logan never sent it to you once?"

Adeline lowered her head in embarrassment and shook her head.

Curtis later realized, repeatedly apologized, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have mentioned him. I'm a little angry."

With that, he reached out to hold the back of Adeline's head, pulled her closer to his wheelchair, leaned over to kiss her cheek, full of pity, and solemnly made a promise.

"You're going to have much "first time" with me in the future."

As he spoke, Curtis did not want Adeline to be awkward, he quickly changed the topic and asked, "I heard you were arguing with someone on the phone just now, was there something wrong?"

Adeline said in an understated way, "Still a family matter."

Then, Adeline glanced at Curtis, and tentatively said, "I had an argument with my elder brother just now. I was so angry. If...... if I said I don't want to recognize him as my elder brother, would you think I'm..."

Before she could finish, Curtis interrupted, "I won't."

He thought in his heart that he should go and check on Adeline's elder brother, but he gently stroked Adeline's head and said,

"If even you're so angry enough to say such words, it means that he really did not act kindly.

Sometimes close relatives also depended on kinship, like my second elder brother's wife, she did not treat me very well. Sometimes it was worse than these two brothers who did not share the same blood and gave wedding gifts.

The fate between people could not be forced, and the same for close relatives. If got along well, just contacted more. If it's about the principle,

it's better not to recognise and don't tire yourself."

Adeline widened her eyes and stared at Curtis, eyes slightly steamy.

She had not expected such comforting words from him!

In the past, she had also discussed similar topic with Logan.

But Logan's answer was that there was no overnight feuds between close relatives!

Saying that a family should be united. If there was anything wrong, just talked it through.

Every time she dared not say anymore.

Curtis stroked Adeline's head again, "Did I say something wrong?"

Adeline shook her head.

Curtis curled the corners of his lips and continued, "Adeline, I'm now your husband. If you encounter anything, remember to find me. Although I'm disabled, I still have some connections in the past. If I

don't do well, remember to say it too."

Adeline was so touched that she almost shed tears. She wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and said, "Why are you being so nice to me?"

Too good to be the husband of a flash marriage.

"Because you're my wife. If I don't treat you nice, then who should I treat?"

Curtis raised his wine glass, crossed Adeline's arm, and softly chuckled.

"Mrs. Riley, finish this glass of cross-cupped wine, and wish us a happy wedding night night!"
