Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 367
“Sleep? Okay!” he answered with a smile. “I’ll sleep with you.”“Zephyr!” Cordelia huffed at him. “I mean actual sleep, not what you’re thinking…”“What am I thinking?”Cordelia stayed quiet. She got tricked by him again.Zephyr kept an arm around her slim waist.When a few guys walked past them, he raised his glass with a smile. The action blocked Cordelia just nicely.Robert continued to sigh as he deeply realized that it was a mistake staying around the two of them! He wondered if he could negotiate with his boss to add another employee benefit—“Girlfriend included”? ‘Sigh…’A rose-red figure walked over with a champagne flute from afar.Zephyr was going to leave, but Cordelia tugged him and gave him a look.It was just Nelly. It was not like she was some monster…Cordelia pursed her lips and entered battle mode instantly.“Ms. Tanner!” She greeted her with a radiant smile.“Oh, you’re here too, Ms. Jenner!” Nelly tipped her chin, maintaining surface courtesy.Zephyr
Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 368
Nelly’s expression was stiff, and her gaze was resentful when she stared daggers at Cordelia. As Zephyr took Cordelia elsewhere, she kept her eyes on their backs and suddenly heard Mandy’s words in her ears—“You don’t have Tanner’s blood in you. You aren’t even worthy of Zephyr Hamerton.“I shouldn’t have taken you back from the orphanage and let you be a Tanner back then!”Nelly shook, rage almost breaking through her ribs. She took a few deep breaths to force herself to calm down.“Hah, being mocked again?” A familiar voice sounded.She turned back and saw Yale holding a glass of whisky as he stood leisurely with a smile. The one next to him was no longer Yelena but a young model who wore a low-cut dress.“What does it have to do with you!?” Nelly was annoyed seeing him.“With the woman next to Z, you don’t have to think about marrying into the Hamertons ever!” Yale gloated.Nelly rolled her eyes at him. She was going to leave when Yale drawled his voice. “There’s someone impo

Nelly looked toward that direction discreetly as well and discovered that he was actually staring at Cordelia!She was shocked but did not show it, merely asking, “Mr. Irwin, the auction’s starting. Which piece are you going to bid for?”Rowan’s brows were furrowed lightly. His mind had long gone to Cordelia.As he looked at her from afar and watched how a man kept her in his arms like a treasure and how she smiled that even her dimples oozed happiness… he suddenly felt a pinch on his nose. A sob was lodged in his throat.She really looked a lot like Xyla. Yet, the cool brilliance from her eyes looked so much like his.Rowan smiled and felt sullen. He had promised Xyla that he would never disrupt their lives. Those formulas had severed all their relationships. The moment Xyla left Southeast Aciatic, they were strangers to each other.Rowan’s fingers on the wine glass tightened, and his joints turned white from the exertion.“Mr. Irwin, what’s the matter?”“Hmm?” He snapped out

Nelly stood rooted angrily.The auction began, and the guests eventually got seated.Zephyr and Cordelia sat at the frontmost VIP seats while Rowan did not make a public appearance. He found a suitable spot on the second floor, and its angle allowed him to look down and catch Cordelia’s side profile.Nelly noticed it and was even more convinced that the old lecher, Rowan Irwin, had eyes for Cordelia! He had never spoken a word to Cordelia before, but he defended her so much!Meanwhile, Nelly had spent the whole night talking to him, yet she could not compare to that b*tch…Nelly had rage boiling in her and did not even go to her seat. She went to a corner to make a call.“Where’s Kelly Tanner?” The resentment in her voice was hardly hidden. She took a deep breath and sounded vicious. “Hah, tell her that her big sister will pay her a visit when she’s done with this auction!”“Ms. Nelly, but…” The servant on the other end of the line sounded frantic.“What else do you want?

Josiah was not wearing pants! He was not wearing any pants!“Ahh!” Godd*mn!Josiah kept shrieking as he frantically pulled a piece of clothing from the side to cover himself.The girl was terrified, shaking as she crouched on the floor with her hands wrapped around her head.At the same time, someone knocked on the dressing room door.Josiah stopped screaming abruptly and was still in shock when he heard someone asking, “Is there anyone in there? Can I enter?”It was a man’s voice.Josiah was a little befuddled. He was going to open the door when something grabbed his ankle. Looking down, the girl crawled in front of him, grabbing his foot. Her eyes were misty.“No…” she pleaded. “Don’t open the door. Don’t say that I’m here…”“What?” Josiah was lost. “What’s happening?”“Please!”The knocks grew louder.Josiah did not have much time to think. The moment the person outside kicked the door open, he grabbed the clothes he covered himself with and pressed the girl on the floor

“Is your name just Kelly?” Josiah puffed his cheeks and frowned, looking lost. “What’s your last name?”Kelly looked down and stayed quiet.Josiah laughed. Who cared what her last name was? A name was just a term of address.“Alright, I’ll take you for a walk!” he said and was going to leave the room.“Hey, you…”Kelly tugged him back before he could walk away.Josiah paused and looked down… He still had no pants on!He flushed immediately and looked up at her in a panic, forcing a smile that looked more like a wince.Kelly was amused by it, and there was finally some color on her pale face.Josiah ran back inside the dressing room frantically and pulled on a pair of pants before he took Kelly for a walk.The fall night was beautiful. The porch was in the sun the whole day, so there was still a warm sunlight scent now. It was quiet all around, with occasional bird chirps and dots of light that seemed like fireflies.Kelly took a deep breath and closed her eyes gently. Standi

Josiah suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. He could no longer control it.It was like Kelly had magic. Her eyes felt like a mysterious world that tempted him to explore.He looked at her in a daze and felt their surroundings quieting down all of a sudden. It was like all the lights in the world were concentrated on her.A cool breeze blew, prompting coughs from the girl. It snapped Josiah out of his daze, and he removed his jacket to drape it on her.“It’s okay…”“Put it on!” Josiah pulled it around her. “Don’t you have a weak body? You can’t catch a cold!”Kelly licked her lips and looked at him quietly.There were noises from the auction, and people were already walking toward the door.“Looks like it’s over,” said Josiah. “Uh… Let me send you home. Where are you living?”Kelly shook her head. Everything that happened felt like a dream. Now that it was time to wake up, she should go back to her reality.Her reality was that she was the unknown daughter of the Tanners. She

Cordelia blushed red and struggled away from Zephyr’s hold to run into the room while he was distracted.Robert sucked in a cold breath, but it was already too late to run.Zephyr’s glower was so dark that it could drip ink.He walked briskly to the door and pulled the metal bolt open with a clank. His eyes felt like ice as they gave Robert a death glare.The corners of Robert’s lips twitched as he plastered on a smile, his heart almost leaping out of his throat.“What is it?” Zephyr spat coldly.Robert had completely forgotten what he wanted to say and stared at the man dumbly.The few seconds of silence felt as long as centuries.Cordelia then heard someone’s deafening growl from where she was in the room. “Robert Davis…”Helen was picking vegetables and hurried out of the kitchen, shocked by the noise.“What happened to Mr. Zephyr?” Cordelia sat on the couch with a secret giggle.“What did Robert do this time?” Helen sighed, shook her head, and turned back to the kitche

"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
