Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 316
Matthew’s eyes widened in disbelief.“Looks like it’s useless to you, whether it’s taking the subsidiary from you or dismissing you!” Liam looked at him coldly. “You don’t have to come to the company anymore, then! The projects you have are to be distributed to the Hamerton kids!”“Zephyr, make arrangements for it. Those who take over must have a virtuous character. No more blunders!”“Mm, I understand.” Zephyr smiled as he already had a plan in his mind.He had a lot of peers in the family. His elder cousins were mature and steady people who were trustworthy.“As for the western suburbs land…” Liam thought about it. “Zephyr, take full charge. Make sure nothing goes wrong.”“Alright.”Zephyr wore a small smile.He managed to dismiss Matthew from work in the board meeting last time with a few words, and now, with the same brief words, he kicked the man out of the project.It was like an obstacle removed for him, but the Tanners were still around.Zephyr said with a low tone, “

It went quiet all of a sudden.Cordelia’s eyes were cast down as she held her hands together and remained silent.Janine and Xyla exchanged a look and smiled, leaving tactfully. The young couple needed some private space right now.“Robert, take us around somewhere else,” instructed Janine.Robert caught what she meant instantly and went to start the car. Only the ever-jolly Josiah stood rooted dumbly and stared at the two of them.He grinned. “Z, sis-in-law, you don’t have to bring anything. I’ve set the place up for you. You can pack your bag and check in anytime!”Cordelia looked up and met Zephyr’s deep gaze.Zephyr grew a little nervous. “Cordelia, I won’t force you if you’re reluctant.”Cordelia could not help chuckling inwardly. “I won’t force you”… Ever since she learned about his real identity, these four words seemed to have grown in his mouth!She wondered if he knew that she sometimes quite wished that he would “force” her a little…Sometimes, she thought of the o

“It really isn’t easy to be Mr. Z Hamerton’s wife!” Cordelia grinned at him playfully.It was lonely at the top. Zephyr was high in status, and all his family glory was focused on him—that also meant that all the resentment and hostility were on him.Those in the Hamertons did not dare lay a finger on him, so they would naturally shift their target to the people around him.“I can’t put myself in danger.” Cordelia looked into his eyes. “And I can’t allow you to be distracted because of me.“Only when I’m strong and able to protect myself that I won’t burden you and, instead, become the last and your most secure line of defense.”“Cordelia…” Zephyr had mixed feelings.He knew that his woman was smart and strong. She was no weak pushover bunny.He was great, and she was decent—she could stand with him. This was the best for them. Being parallel and on par with each other was the best version of love.“Say…” Josiah approached them. “Are you two staying here or not?“Never mind, s

Zephyr was wearing it on his hand, so Cordelia was able to compare them straight away.They were really identical. Even the design of the bell and weaving method was the same.The couple exchanged a look and nodded in unison. Zephyr held Cordelia’s hand, and they swiftly left Royal Manor.They drove to the hot spring hotel close to the beach. The air smelled slightly salty as well. After getting out of the car, they took the winding path and heard a familiar voice not too long later.“Young lady, your life ahead is great!“Hmm… but romantic relationship-wise, it’s a bit weaker. Hah, you two will part sooner or later!”Cordelia’s heart squeezed as she quickened her steps.The one standing there was still that old woman. She was reading a tourist’s palm with a small smile that looked like she knew everything.Cordelia froze and heard the old woman say, “But one day, you’ll be happy!”Was this not what she had told them back then as well?“These two bracelets are for you.” The o

Cordelia and Zephyr officially made their home in Royal Manor.Although Josiah had everything set up, Cordelia still thought that it only felt right that they decorated their home personally.This was why she roamed the streets of Centrolis and bought plenty of things during the free days after resigning from the news agency and before she reported to Imperial Media.She paid for everything with Zephyr’s card.Zephyr’s phone kept buzzing while he was in meetings, notification after notification of transaction history. He furrowed his brows, but there was an indulging smile in his eyes.‘The purchasing power of his girl… Why did I never realize that she is a shopaholic?’If she kept on shopping like this, his monthly allowance would be in peanuts, or he might end up like Nicholas, who did not even have money for a pack of cigarettes!Zephyr’s heart lurched.The department director who was reporting work-related matters accidentally caught Zephyr’s expression when he looked up an

Zephyr looked down.Cordelia had a standard height among women, but in his presence, she would only reach his shoulder when she stood on tiptoe. He patted her head. A gleam that would only be revealed when he was with her flashed through his eyes.“I wouldn’t have money to spend this month if I didn’t come, right?” he whispered and chuckled.“How could that be possible? I’ve kept it for you!”“Really?”“Mm-hmm… I calculated. You’re covered when it comes to food when you go to work. You don’t have to spend anything. I’ll buy clothes for you. Now that we’re living in Royal Manor, we no longer have to pay rent. Life is much better now than when we were in Jangasas!“Among our daily necessities, we’ll need to spend some on transportation.” Cordelia counted with her fingers. “You drive a manual car, and it saves on gas. I did some calculations. 50 dollars per month should be enough!“So…” She took out a 50-dollar bill and waved it while smiling. She put it in his shirt pocket and pat

“To sign Neil. Did you forget!?”Nicholas was quite worked up. He had sacrificed his dignity to trade this with over 300 lipsticks!“Don’t worry, I remember.” Zephyr chuckled.The former looked at him hesitantly. “Really?”“But I heard that the Imperial Media has been fighting for Neil. I think they’ve contacted him many times.”Zephyr was stunned. Was that not Janine’s company?So, his mother was interested in Neil too.If they were to fight, he could not offend any side.“Perhaps it’s just a rumor,” he said flatly. “I’ll find out for you.”“Hmm, thanks!” Nicholas smiled. It was over 300 lipsticks! He could not let that go to waste no matter what.…When Zephyr returned to Royal Manor, he saw Cordelia making the bed as soon as he entered the room.Her tiny body knelt on the bed, and each move was like a silent seduction attempt.Zephyr was stunned and froze where he was…He took a deep breath and walked to her. Hearing the sound behind her, Cordelia snapped her head back

Stunned, Zephyr turned around to look at Cordelia.Her hair was slightly messy. She looked a little silly when she had just woken up—she was so cute!If he did not have so much work to do at the Hamerton Group, he would like to…“Are you sure you want to bring me food?”Cordelia did not manage to get what he meant, so she nodded seriously.He smirked, revealing a naughty grin.“Sure,” he whispered. “I’ll wait for you at noon.”At noon, he would eat the food she brought him or her.As soon as Zephyr got out, Cordelia began cooking in the kitchen.Helen was cleaning the house, and some fragrance suddenly attracted her. She saw Cordelia making food and putting it in the thermal container.“What did you make, Ms. Jenner?” Helen was curious. “It’s appetizing by smelling it alone. It must be delicious!”Cordelia smiled, scooped a piece of pork rib onto a small plate, and handed it to her.Helen dared not take it at first, and she only tasted it after the former insisted that she

"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
