Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 1920
Persephone pointed at them. "These two herbs together are for promoting blood circulation and removing bruises. Soaking them in bathwater and using them to wash can reduce swelling and alleviate pain..."Morpheus gazed at her steadily. Yet, Persephone interpreted his complex expression as his surprise.Waving her hand, she chuckled and continued. "No need to thank me. These are small matters to me! And you don't have to worry about the proportion. It's absolutely precise!"Morpheus narrowed his eyes. The herbs were quite common, but not in Flinge, not even familiar. However, in Southeast Aciatic... His heart lurched, and his gaze toward Persephone deepened."Hey, this is the culmination of my lifelong learning!" Persephone looked at him. "You should go to the pharmacy for them when you have time!"After a prolonged silence, Morpheus asked in a low voice, "How do you know these prescriptions?"Persephone felt proud. What was so difficult about it? Her grandmother was a descendant

Even though Morpheus didn't show it on his face, he felt a wave of warmth inside."I'm not that fragile." He smiled. "Are you full?"Persephone burped, wiped her mouth, and grinned at him."The weather is nice today." Morpheus glanced outside. "How about we go out for a stroll?"Persephone happily agreed, quickly tidied up, and went out with him.Morpheus took her to several streets in Flinge. It was her first time observing the city during the daytime. She found that Flinge was quite lovely in daylight, a city filled with sunshine and vibrancy. Each street was adorned with beautiful, nameless flowers competing in beauty.Boys and girls in ethnic attire were playing around in groups, looking exceptionally cheerful.The shops on both sides were bustling, attracting tourists from all around the world. Everywhere was a scene of joy and harmony.Persephone mingled among the crowd, brimming with excitement. Morpheus feared she might get lost and stayed close behind. He grabbed her

"Are you praising my looks?" Persephone asked.Morpheus remained silent and just ruffled her hair gently."But I'm your wife, right? How could she let a married woman...""These things are common here," Morpheus said casually. "Husbands accumulate gambling debts, and wives sell themselves to pay them off. It's a routine occurrence.""But didn't you say you'd protect me?""That was under the premise that I'm alive." His voice grew deeper, his expression more serious. "But in those lawless underground rings, anything can happen. Everyone signs a life-or-death contract. Even death in those fights is deemed deserved!"Persephone halted, staring at him blankly.Morpheus paused when he noticed the coldness and tremors in her hand. Her pretty face paled with fear, too.He frowned slightly and pulled her into his arms. He alertly scanned around, then led her to blend into the crowd swiftly with their heads down."Morpheus, I..." Persephone's voice trembled."I was talking about the w

Persephone suddenly halted, realizing there were familiar faces around her. A surge of joy filled her, but she cautiously avoided looking around. She silently trailed behind Morpheus, taking small steps forward.Morpheus turned around. "What's wrong?"Persephone's heart raced as if it would leap out of her mouth. She looked up at him, unable to utter a single word. Her unusual expression and pale face puzzled Morpheus."Are you feeling unwell?""No...""Let's look around, then head back."Morpheus squinted. He noticed the flickering light on her wrist and her distracted demeanor and then recollected her prescriptions and those exotic ingredients only found in Southeast Aciatic...His doubts gathered like thick clouds in his mind. This bracelet was highly unusual as he had never seen her take it off. Could this flickering pendant be some sort of signal?Just as this thought struck him, he abruptly grabbed her shoulder and embraced her tightly.Startled, Persephone raised her he

Persephone's worries were almost flowing out of her eyes!Morpheus stood aside, straightening his back. The punch he had received wasn't much, but it surprisingly stung right now. Did she not remember that he also had injuries? Did she not realize these were a mix of old and new injuries?He assessed Seamus thoroughly. Seams was good-looking and refined. He appeared as a dashing young fellow. However, the viciousness in his punch moments ago contradicted his genteel appearance.Seamus was fairer, leaner, and had more delicate features, yet his muscles were as developed as his. Morpheus grunted and cleared his throat.Persephone finally remembered him and turned to look."This is...""He's Seamus Rutherford," Persephone introduced formally. "My... My good friend."She couldn't say Seamus was her bodyguard. After all, how could a regular girl have a bodyguard? In spite of it, the words "good friend" pricked Morpheus' heart.He glanced at her wrist and then at Seamus'. They bo

Seamus was utterly shocked.Morpheus glanced at him with a slight triumphant smirk."Flinge is hot and humid," he casually remarked. "Having some cold beer relieves fatigue."Seamus blinked, then watched as Persephone poured beer into a glass and drank it like it was a regular beverage.Morpheus chuckled, almost talking to himself, yet with a calculated intent. "Sephy, you really like this, right?"Persephone agreed cheerily, "Yeah!"Seamus, you should try it too." She offered him a can. "I've never had this kind of drink before, but it's surprisingly good!"Seamus smiled and shook his head. As a bodyguard, he needed to remain alert at all times."Sephy, perhaps… you should take it easy," he advised."It's fine!""After all, we're in someone else's home," Seamus emphasized the words "someone else's"."Are you worried that she might get drunk and something could happen?" Morpheus cut in directly with a faint smile. "She's been staying with me all this while and hasn't treated

"Ms. Hamerton, please don't be angry. I'm just worried about you.""Enough!" Persephone was upset. "Worried? Where were you all when it mattered?! All of you are extraordinary experts, but the moment we arrived in Flinge, everyone went missing!"Seamus lowered his head, embarrassed by her scolding."If it weren't for Morpheus, I'd probably end up in the red-light district as a corpse!""Miss..."Persephone turned her back in annoyance. "And, I've said it before. Drop the address in front of Morpheus!""Alright."After a while, Persephone calmed down. She turned to him and asked, "You brought me out here. Was there something else you wanted to tell me?"Seamus regained his focus, cleared his throat, and whispered, "After we arrived in Flinge, we were targeted by some factions here... This is the reason we lost contact with you earlier."Persephone's expression changed. "Who are they?""Faction forces," Seamus explained briefly. "The factions here are complex, and Flinge is far

Persephone stared at him, seemingly feeling guilty as if she had done something wrong. She swiftly withdrew her hand from Seamus' ear and clasped them behind her back.Morpheus glanced at them. He hadn't heard what they were saying. After finishing his cigarette and returning indoors, he found no trace of the two. Instinctively, he stepped outside to find them and faintly caught the words "leaving" at the door.His heart felt as though it had been squeezed and dropped to the ground, but he quickly regained his composure. He ironically thought, 'What right do I have to feel hurt?'Between Persephone and Morpheus, aside from being labeled as a couple, nothing else had happened. He didn't even understand how she felt about it.Their paths might have only crossed that night when she tenderly attended to his wounds. On that particular night, she glimpsed his scars, and it was only then that her tears fell for him.Wasn't that enough?They belonged to two different worlds.Now that he

"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
