Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 146
As expected, William, who was on the stairs, stopped moving. His face was getting grim.The secretary wanted to step in, but he stopped her.He wanted to know what his daughters would say!Cordelia said calmly, “Sister, don’t you know why I got married? If dad didn’t dote on you and love you, how would I be the one who got married instead?“It’s inappropriate to talk about our family matters in the office. You should stop.”After saying that, she wanted to walk past her to get the elevator, but Yelena rushed toward her.“What? You wouldn’t dare to fight me?” She looked barbaric. “What happened to your capability? What happened to your tongue that’s so good at talking!? Hah, you dare not fight me now? Who are you pretending to be weak for, you b*tch!”Cordelia was waiting for her to stir things up!She peeped at her with her side eye and suddenly scoffed. “What capability do I have, sister? Dad loves you and is going to give you his business in the future. I’m just picking up th

“You—”Cordelia took a step forward, “Sister, we’re the Jenners. We’re from the same family. We’re together in weal and woe. You being humiliated would mean that dad is also humiliated. If you want to throw a tantrum at me in the future, do it somewhere that’s just us. You can do whatever you want to me. But never humiliate dad in public!”Yelena turned pale. She stared right at her.Cordelia’s every word struck the crucial points. No matter how dumb Yelena was, she dared not lash out at the moment. “Hah, I never thought you pretended to be carefree before, yet you’re brutal when you fight!”Cordelia looked cold as she enunciated each word. “I just want to be at peace with you.”Yelena turned around and left after a scoff.Watching her leave, Cordelia accidentally peeped at William’s pleased face.She suddenly felt a little sad.In reality, Cordelia and Yelena were just chess pieces that were played. What was the meaning of winning?She said softly, “Dad, I’m going back to t

“What’s wrong?”“N-Nothing,” Cordelia responded softly.She secretly peeped at him while eating the spaghetti. She pouted, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito. “You’re so accurate with the date…”What did this man have in his head? How did he know that it was the last day of her period?She flushed even more now. The way she looked at him was shy and full of blame.Zephyr was confused. He had no idea what had happened, no matter how he thought about it.She was just eating spaghetti, so why was she blushing?He coughed softly and lifted his eyes to look at her. He could not hold back his smile. “Seems like you’ve adapted yourself at the Jenner Group. Did anything good happen?”Cordelia’s eyes dimmed when she heard that. She put down the utensils lightly.She recounted what had happened in the past few days, including Yelena stirring trouble with her in the company lobby.As he listened quietly, he could imagine how lonely and helpless she was in the Jenner Group. Although

The man’s strong arms hugged her tightly. Looking into his deep eyes, Cordelia suddenly recalled him saying, “We have to get down to business after you eat!”Cordelia’s cheeks flushed, and she held her head low. Just like that, she allowed him to hug her like a good girl.She said shyly, “Hubby, l-let’s wait a little bit.”Zephyr was stunned. “Wait a little bit?”“Didn’t you say you wanted to… Ah! Just wait a little bit. I ate too much!”Zephyr only realized what she was saying after a moment. Holding back his laughter, he said to her with his shaking voice, “I’m taking you out.”Stunned, Cordelia stared at him with her blinking eyes.“What…”Zephyr patted her head.Was he usually too lewd that she had a conditioned reflex to that? She immediately thought of that when he said they would get down to business…He was the one who taught her to think that!He smirked, failing to hide the pride in his smile.Cordelia clenched her fist and punched his chest hard.“Marcus!”“Oka

Zephyr looked at her quietly.Cordelia suddenly saw a complicated expression in his deep eyes. Her heart was pounding, and her palms were sweating. She pursed her lips.She only heard her husband speak with a deep voice a long time later.“I looked for this place for a long time and negotiated with the landlord a few times before renting and renovating it.”Cordelia was stunned.“You said you wanted a cafe.” His face softened as his rough fingers caressed her face. “I kept that in mind.“So I compared a few shops when I had the time, and eventually decided on this one because I think this matches your requirement.His voice was deep, with a pampering hint hiding within. “Wifey, your husband can’t do anything, but I’ll do my best and pay any price to get whatever you want.”What he said sent a jolt to her heart. She held his hand tightly.“You must’ve spent a lot of money, right?”“Hmm, quite a lot.” She would not believe it if he said he did not, so he thought he would be ser

“Darling, this is Ms. Zennie Hamerton. She saved me last time.”“Zennie, this is my—”“I know!” Zennie hooked an arm around Cordelia’s neck and grinned at Zephyr. “This is your husband, Marcus Grist!“Hello, brother-in-law!”Zephyr wore a straight face.“Darling?” Cordelia elbowed him lightly. “Zennie’s greeting you!”Zephyr glanced at Zennie and made a low hum before turning to the back of the counter to check on the oven temperature.Cordelia frowned, confused. She was also a little embarrassed in front of Zennie. The latter would not think that they were unwelcoming, would she?“Zennie, excuse him.” She smiled and said, “My husband’s usually this stern and not quite a people-person… But you’ll find out after spending time with him that he’s a really nice guy!”Zennie nodded, holding back her laugh.Since they were little, Zephyr was a “brat” to Uncle Matthew, and a “poker face” and “reaper” to the others in the family. He actually became a “nice guy” here with Cordelia.I

Zephyr also replied, mouthing, “You’re asking for a beating!”Zennie giggled happily and chomped down on the cranberry cookies, dropping the crumbs everywhere.Cordelia had gone to the front to water the plants, so Zephyr approached his sister with a scowl.“Clean up after yourself!”Zennie jumped due to the sudden voice. She gobbled whatever she had in her mouth down. Even though she was reluctant, she obediently took the broom from her brother and ultimately cleaned up the place, caving into his authority.“Bro, you’re doing great now, huh?” She teased him while she worked. “The greatest husband alive, ain’t it?”Zephyr just glared at her.Zennie grinned and packed the remaining cookies into a bag after she was done cleaning.“Who are you giving them to?” Zephyr asked out of the blue.Zennie was startled, quietly tightening her hand and holding the bag.‘Damn, I was still seen through.’ She wondered how her brother got a pair of bright X-ray vision eyes. She could never hid

Zephyr glared at her angrily but was at a loss for words because of what she said.The girl wiped her tears. “So what about being 18 years old? Who says that 18-year-olds can’t date? Nelly Tanner was all over you when you were 18 too!”“Zennie, one more word from you and!”Zephyr’s overwhelming dominance made the room feel as if it was submerged in a vacuum.Zennie could only hear her heart thump wildly. She hung her head timidly and wrung her fingers together, biting her lips, not daring to say another word.It was then Cordelia came in with Linda and Seth, Fredric following behind them. They were here to celebrate the opening of the shop.Zephyr took a deep breath and did his best to plaster on a relatively natural smile before he went to them. He politely and courteously greeted them, looking very much like the host.Cordelia stood next to him, docile and admiring. Her infatuated look made Linda chuckle, snapping her out of her daze. She blushed and pursed her lips, escaping

"Only Morpheus and Sephy aren't like that. They respect and understand me. Sephy told me once, 'One's appearance doesn't indicate anything. A clean heart is what truly matters!'"Rebecca chuckled dismissively."You're a psychologist, yet you fail to grasp this," Wynn said coldly. "Actually, I pity you. You could have stepped out, yet you insist on dwelling on the trivialities."Morpheus has psychological barriers, a consequence of returning from the battlefield. No one has cured his PTSD except Sephy... It shows that a true psychologist is never just a title."What truly heals everything is love!"-One particular morning a year later, sunlight streamed through sheer cream curtains onto the floor.Persephone was sound asleep when she suddenly felt something pressing down on her... Then, Morpheus' strong arms wrapped around her slender waist. She drowsily opened her eyes to find him sealing her lips with heated kisses.Over the year, his kissing skills had improved, and Persepho

With Morpheus' involvement, the police didn't slack off and quickly found Rebecca.That day, Rebecca was preparing to escape from a small port. The boat she had found was an illegally operating one.As she was about to board, piercing sirens sounded nearby.The boat owner, enraged upon hearing the sirens, grabbed Rebecca by her hair and pushed her into the water.Rebecca screamed for help, but he roared, "I didn't expect you to be sent by the cops!""I'm not..." Rebecca choked on water. "Sir, let's leave now. Your boat is fast. As long as we reach the open sea, no one will catch you!""Dream on!" The boat owner wanted to strangle her. "Do you not understand? These sirens are from the royal guards! Who did you bitch provoke?"Rebecca was dumbfounded. Being a foreigner, she naturally didn't understand the local affairs in the Southeast Aciatic region.The police and royal guards quickly caught up, armed, and surrounded them.Rebecca turned pale and trembled all over, her gaze gr

"You had no choice on the battlefield."Persephone looked at him with her crystal eyes. There was a magical power in them. Even if a devil was tearing him apart, her eyes would always bring him back to light.She smiled and caressed his cheek. "Though you killed your father, you saved the country.""Do you really… think so?"She nodded. "You're not at fault. He was the one who made a mistake. You were just fulfilling your job as a general to protect the country."But I also understand that he's your father who brought you up, after all. You guys must have had happy days before that happened, right?"Morpheus held his head low in silence."You did well as the protector of the country," she said softly. "But as a son, you can secretly pay homage to him."Persephone held his hand. "Reconcile with your father, Morpheus. You'll also reconcile with yourself by doing that, okay?"He was stunned for a long time and felt a lump in his throat.-Morpheus stayed with Persephone in the

"No way!" Christopher smirked, glancing at Morpheus. "To him, you're his only princess! I just got lucky for the princess carry, thanks to you!""Yeah, at least you're self-aware!" Persephone nodded, rubbing her chin."We've known each other for so long! What kind of person do you think I am?" Christopher laughed. "I can be a bit shameless at times, but..."But upon learning that the one she loved was the unbeatable god of war, he willingly stepped back, offering his blessings with a smile."Okay, okay. You two stop crowding around me!" Christopher waved his hand. "Sephy needs more rest, and I'd like to get some more sleep, too! Once we heal, let's go out and have some fun together!""You're still thinking about fun?" Morpheus' deep voice intervened with a wry smile. "With the factory explosion incident, the royal family is furious and will thoroughly investigate it. Many people will probably be coming to talk to you both in the next few days. After all, you two are the most direc

"Let's get out first!""Hey, wait..." Persephone pointed to the other side.In moments of life and death, it wasn't appropriate to laugh, but Morpheus still chuckled. The young Prince Christopher was sprawled on the floor in a very ridiculous pose, and they almost forgot about him!"Don't worry," Morpheus whispered. "I won't let anything happen to him."He had Persephone cling to his back and then carried Christopher.Christopher was a tall fellow, so it took some effort to carry them both to a safe place.Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars rushed in. Their sirens pierced the sky, startling a flock of birds.The fire was soon extinguished, and Persephone and Christopher received timely treatment. Luckily, their burns weren't too severe, and even more fortunately, their faces were unharmed.When Christopher woke up, he felt bandages wrapped around his head, and his skin had a burning sensation. His heart sank, and he was almost on the verge of tears."Tell me the truth! A

There was fire everywhere. Flames rushed toward Persephone like menacing dragons. Her consciousness grew increasingly blurred, but the searing pain coursing through her body became clearer. She struggled to get up, the agony almost unbearable.Despite several attempts, it was futile...Something was pinning her feet down, and stones kept falling on her. She couldn't even muster a shout.Many images flashed through her mind in that fleeting moment, each frame featuring Morpheus' face…She remembered the times they had spent together in Flinge, how he had initially distanced himself from her, then later had exerted every effort to protect her. She recalled how he would gently ruffle her hair and call her "silly goose"..."Morpheus, I'm afraid I might have to go first..."The fire grew fiercer, explosions resonated continuously, and she could no longer hold on.Christopher, who was nearby, wasn't any better.Amidst the roaring flames, he couldn't see anything clearly, only pulling

"No need, you can go back first." Morpheus glanced at him. "I'll wait here for her a little longer.""Prince Christopher wouldn't do anything to Ms. Hamerton...""Alfred, what are you thinking?" Morpheus couldn't help but chuckle. "I know exactly what Christopher is like, but I just want to wait here for Sephy. Christopher mentioned that she'd specifically designed these fireworks for me. Hah! I'm the useless one. I don't even dare to go inside and take a look.""Sir, don't say that.""If I wait here, will it count as accompanying her in her efforts?"Alfred nodded.Morpheus smiled and sent Alfred back. He continued waiting under the tree.The air in Southeast Aciatic was hot and humid. The shade of the banyan tree offered some relief, but it couldn't completely dispel the oppressive heat.Morpheus took a deep breath, about to move elsewhere, when he glimpsed a suspicious figure swiftly darting through the factory's side gate.The security at the side gate was lax, making it e

Christopher struggled to swallow the bite of the sandwich in his mouth for what seemed like ages. He gazed at Persephone, his mind wandering back…He didn't just know Morpheus. He had been close since childhood to the children of the two prominent military families in Southeast Aciatic.Compared to the Harrises, he preferred visiting the Ortons, especially when he got to spend time with Morpheus. He considered Morpheus a friend, a brother even, having engaged in countless mischief together, much to their parents' dismay.In his memory, Morpheus was someone who smiled a lot, radiating warmth and brightness like the Southeast Aciatic sun when he did.However, from the moment Kaiden betrayed the country, Morpheus never smiled again, gradually growing distant from Christopher as well.It wasn't until that evening at the gates of the palace that Christopher felt like it had been a lifetime."I... I don't know him." Christopher forced a smile. "Where would I have met your boyfriend!"

Morpheus wasn't just an ordinary person!Christopher wholeheartedly accepted his defeat to Morpheus."Then... I'd like to invite you to come over to my place for a while as a friend. That's fine, right?"-A few days later, Persephone finally ran into Christopher, who had been missing in action for days, in the classroom."Hey, you finally showed up!" She dashed over, plopping down in the seat beside him and handing him breakfast. "You haven't eaten, right? Let's eat together!"Usually, Christopher would readily accept, but he waved his hands now. "No, no, no!""What's wrong?" Persephone widened her eyes. "This breakfast isn't poisoned!"Christopher awkwardly smiled. "You have a boyfriend, so maybe... we should keep some distance."Persephone burst into laughter. Then she remarked, "Strange... Morpheus was right!""Uh, what?""My boyfriend!" She chuckled. "He made this breakfast. I asked if he could also make a portion for you, and he said sure, just worried you wouldn't tak
