Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 227
Liam looked at him and quietly played with the tea set in his hands. He made Earl Gray tea and poured it into a cup.Zephyr got up and walked to the window. With his back facing his grandfather, he said calmly. “Why are you calling, cousin?”“Nothing much, I…”Yale intentionally paused as he was speaking.He scoffed and said nothing else.“If there’s nothing important, we’ll chat some other day.” Zephyr mocked. “After all, I can’t be chatting with you and ignore grandpa when I’m with him!”“Sure, go on and kiss his *ss!“Hey, speaking of *ss-kissing… Z, your woman isn’t bad indeed! Hahaha…”“What are you talking about?” Zephyr felt a tight squeeze in his heart. A chill was sent down his spine.Yale laughed hysterically and enunciated. “I said your woman is so hot. She’s not bad at all!”“Yale!”“Z, why didn’t you bring the amazing Ms. Jenner home? Hahaha…”Yale hung up the phone. Soon, his phone vibrated. A picture was sent.It was dark, and the resolution was low. However

Both of them were his grandchildren, and they should be valued equally. Although he sided more with Zephyr, he did not want anything to happen to Yale.Liam hit the ground hard with his cane.“Yale can’t do anything, yet he wants to ruin everything! I need to teach him a lesson!” He said angrily, “Get my second son to see me! I’ll get him to lecture his failure of a son!“Was it really Cordelia that Yale captured?”“Sir…” Uncle Clark hesitated. “I think it’s indeed Ms. Jenner from Jangasas that he captured, but I heard there are two daughters in the Jenners. I’m not sure if it’s Cordelia…”Liam squinted, and a sly gleam flashed through his eyes.It would be best if it was Cordelia. He could seize the opportunity to get Zephyr to cut ties with her.He knew his grandson very well. He had a strong desire to possess something. Perhaps he was pissed that his woman was sexually assaulted now, but after he calmed down, he would stay away from her.Liam took a deep breath. He was breat

“Zephyr!”Yale widened his eyes as he watched Zephyr leave just like that. He did not want to yield.“Cousin…” Zephyr stopped and tilted his head slightly, not sure if he was smiling. “Grandpa told me to have priorities, that I shouldn’t fight you for a woman.“I thought he was right, so…” He turned his head to look at Yale, his eyes cold. “Have fun!”Yale was stunned.Wait, was he not ready to fight until death just now? He almost strangled him to death, and now he left just like that!?He grabbed the shotgun quickly!Just when he was going to cock the gun, Zephyr beat him to it. He turned around and pointed his pistol to his head.He smirked. “Cousin, I’ve already told you and your father to never pull tricks behind my back, or I won’t show mercy! Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten about it?”Yale’s face turned pale. He dropped the shotgun and looked at him blankly.Zephyr glared at him with mockery. A scream came from behind just when he was stepping out of the door.“Marcus!

Robert was stunned. He had to discuss the group’s reform plan with the board of directors. How could he return to Jangasas at this critical time!?“Sir, are you worried about Ms. Jenner?” Robert asked softly. “Don’t worry, my men have been watching. She’s safe.”Zephyr could not help but growl, “Then why isn’t she picking up!?” He was anxious.Robert did not know what to say to that.In reality, there were many reasons why someone would not pick up their phone–her phone might be out of battery, she did not hear it, or there was no signal…Furthermore, he was calling in the middle of the night and insisted that she would pick him up immediately. Did Ms. Jenner not need sleep? That was just…Zephyr was unconvinced. He grabbed his car key and ran out.Suddenly, his phone rang. He was stunned when he saw the screen, and his hand was shaking when he picked it up.“Wifey…”“I’m sorry, hubby!” Cordelia, who was on the other side of the phone, sounded like she had just woken up. “I ha

Zennie got up from the bed with a stretch and leaned against the doorframe groggily. Once she smelled the aroma wafting from the kitchen, she perked up and ran out with her bare feet.As expected, the dining table that greeted her did not disappoint!“Whoa, Cordelia, do you have magic?” She gasped. “You made so many things this early in the morning!”Cordelia chuckled and considered it done as she placed the pot of chicken soup on the table.“Dig in!” She passed the cutlery to Zennie.“I don’t know what you like, so I made a bit of both sweet and savory. I hope you’re fine with the food!”“How could I not be!?” Zennie was like a greedy little kitten as she munched on a pancake and held a bun in her hand, eating happily.Breakfast like this was comforting, and it was as if Cordelia had magic. She made all these ordinary dishes taste so amazing that the chefs Zennie had at home could not compare to her.It was no wonder that her brother wanted to stay with her. It seemed that a m

Liam was ultimately out of the critical state, but he could not tire himself out or receive any shock.Zephyr could only run the Hamerton Group on his behalf for the time being.As a result, his return to Jangasas kept being delayed.Cordelia did not complain about it. She only asked him to do whatever he had to without worry. It was just that Zephyr could hardly not be worried. He would not have peace as long as he did not see her.“Can grandpa meet anyone now?”“Uncle Clark says that Mr. Matthew’s taking care of him.”Zephyr paused and scoffed. He recalled Kate arguing with Henry on the phone two days ago. The cause of it seemed to be Kate asking Henry to take care of Liam since the latter was ill, but Henry, who was slow, remained silent.Kate had scolded him, “Are you going to let your younger brother outshine you again when you refuse to do anything now? Henry Hamerton, why are you so pathetic!? You won’t even get any leftovers if you fight for it with Matthew!”Well, gues

His thought was precisely what Matthew had in mind.Although Marcus had been secretly trained since he was caught, he could not be compared to Zephyr. Who they were at their core were different. No matter how the man was trained, a mouse could never turn into a tiger.The plan to let Marcus pretend to be Zephyr and send him to Chaiseland to sign the loan… The one in Chaiseland was Zephyr’s mother! If something happened, Matthew would be in big trouble.“Does that Marcus really look like Zephyr?” Liam asked him calmly.Matthew sweated. “Yes… It’s said that the Jenners have a marriage agreement with him. For some reason, though, our Zephyr, who had been recuperating in that village—”Matthew clamped his mouth straight away. If he went on, the plane crash would inevitably be brought up.“Anyway… that’s basically the case!” Matthew chuckled. “Dad, it’s a misunderstanding. Maybe Zephyr hasn’t met a naive woman from a small place and is only after the novelty.“When the woman is wiped

“Hello, Zephyr!” Zephyr knew just from hearing the voice that it was the speed demon.Zephyr chuckled. “Mom, why are you calling at this hour?”When considering the time difference, it was supposed to be morning in Ricos. His mother was important in the company, so it was impossible she was free to call and chat just as she started work.“Answer mine first! Didn’t you say you have a fake son for me and ask me to capture him alive?“It’s been days. Where’s the guy?”Zephyr frowned. By right, Matthew and Yale should have already made their move.Zephyr hung up and felt a premonition.He asked seriously, “Robert, what has Uncle Matthew been doing these days?”“I think he’s been staying by Mr. Liam’s side.”“What about Yale?”Before Robert could answer, the upsetting sense in Zephyr grew stronger. He had never felt something like this. It was like his heart was sliced.He unconsciously called Cordelia, but no one answered. Zephyr’s face fell, and he decided right away. “Book me

"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
