"Ahem."
Stanley, who had always been calm and composed, was startled by her question and coughed. He frowned and glared at her.
Finally realizing what was going on, Sharon blushed and hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that. Don't get me wrong!"
"This is the question that my friends in the group chat are willing to pay for it!" Sharon whined inside her.
"Why does he look at me as if he is looking at a lecher? I am a pure-hearted little girl inside!" she thought.
"I just want to know more about you. After all, you are my husband. As your wife, I have to learn about my husband's past, right?"
Everyone liked to listen to good words, including Stanley.
When she addressed him as her husband, of course he didn't find it repulsive .
Her voice was soft as she called him husband, stirring a ripple in his heart, like a feather sweeping across the surface of a calm lake, causing a tiny ripple.
As the sound of running water was coming from the bathroom, Sharon sat on the sofa and wiped her hair. Suddenly, the phone on the coffee table rang. She glanced at the caller ID and answered immediately, "Dr. Dixon, why are you looking for me at such a late hour?"
"Oh, it's nothing serious. I would like to inform you as usual that the payment for the hospital bill is due soon, so..."
Money was a sensitive subject even after they had known each other for a year. Zack Dixon hemmed and hawed on the phone.
Sharon knew this from the bottom of her heart.
"Okay, I know. Thank you, Dr. Dixon."
Hanging up the phone, Sharon sighed. Two years ago, her father had a car accident, and the expensive medical expenses almost drove her insane. Stanley came out of nowhere, rescued her from the troubled waters, and helped her get rid of the predicament.
After that, she married him, and he took care of all her father's medical expenses.
Sharon didn't want to know why he wanted to marry an ordinary girl like her, nor did she want to waste her brain capacity to take a guess.
As long as her father was alive, that was enough.
As for whether it was a passionless marriage or not, Sharon did not care.
