Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 526
Liam looked at Rowan in confusion while the latter stared at him with rage.After falling into silence for a while, Rowan broke the ice. “Mr. Hamerton, from what I know, your grandson has a fiancee!”“Fiancee?” Liam was stunned.Was Cordelia not his girlfriend? When did she upgrade to being his fiancee?Also, did he not only propose two days ago?He had lost track of what had been happening out there since he was sick.Liam shook his head. From what he remembered, Zephyr insisted on marrying Cordelia, while Liam was not fond of her.“No, no…” Liam waved his hands. “What fiancee? Zephyr’s marriage was just set two days ago! The lady isn’t too shabby!“Sigh, it’s all my fault.” He sighed. “Clark said that I’m so old I can’t remember people anymore. Hah… Well, I must be too old. I almost missed a great granddaughter-in-law who was right in front of me…“I wonder if she’s willing to marry him.“I don’t care if she’s willing or not. We’ll give an expensive dowry! I’ll visit her pa

Rowan sat in the car, angry. Charlie looked at him through the rearview mirror a couple of times. He did not know this man at all.“Sir, why are you so mad? What happened?”“That b*sard…” Rowan pulled his tie. “He dares to marry someone else!”“What!?” Charlie was shocked too. “Sir, did you hear it wrong?”“That old thing Liam told me himself!”“What…” Charlie frowned. “Then what about our Cordelia?”Rowan scoffed, “He said he loves my daughter. In the end, he caved under his grandfather’s pressure! Such a man isn’t worthy of Cordelia to be with forever! It’s good that they will break up!”Although he said that, he felt beaten.Even if they were to break up, Cordelia should initiate it. It should not be Zephyr breaking up with her.He thought about it and mumbled to himself, “He minds that my daughter doesn’t have a powerful family, right? It’s okay. I’ll acknowledge her as my daughter now! I want the Hamertons to know that she belongs to the Irwins!”Charlie’s expression cha

Janine licked her lips. She picked up the cup and drank a big sip of coffee. She covered her face with the cup to disguise her rather terrible acting skills.A cat happened to run over. It kept rubbing against Xyla’s legs while purring.She was stunned. She carried it while smiling, petting it softly while putting it on the chair.Janine put down her cup and recalled Rowan coming to her in a panic two days ago.…Rowan said he must meet Xyla, so he asked her for a favor.Janine was stunned. She was deeply suspicious that something was wrong with him. He was begging her!?That man had been proud all his life. He had never begged anyone before!She thought he still liked Xyla and scoffed after looking at him coldly for a while. “So, you still have a good conscience!”“So, you’re helping me?”“Sure.” Janine thought about it. “I’ll be going out with Xyla in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. I’ll send you the cafe’s location. Come.”“Sure.” Rowan nodded.Janine looked at him

At the same time, another cafe on the same street was crowded.It was reserved too. It was rare that everyone gathered—almost everyone was there.Josiah sat next to the window with Kelly. They leaned on each other’s heads together. She was focused on reading the original version of Goethe’s poetry.He watched her giggling with his eyes widened. He was counting her lashes.Nicholas snuck out to smoke again, and Linda caught him. She dragged him back by pulling his ear.Zennie played cards with Seth while the latter chuckled. He took out three years' worth of college entrance exam simulation questions…She was dumbstruck and looked like she was dying. Seth taught her with all seriousness. “It’s been so long since you dropped out. You’ve missed the examination this year, so you must get a good result next year. As such, you must work hard now! Here, let’s do it. I’ll teach you whatever you don’t know!”Zephyr and Cordelia looked at each other. They gestured “good luck” to Zennie at

Trinity smiled and pretended to look cool like she always did, though she did what she usually would not do by wearing a checkered dress.“Hey, we can talk about anything, right?” She patted his shoulder. “It's rare to see you so troubled!”Fredric pursed his lips and lowered his voice a moment later. “Trinity, I’m really only a good friend to you, right?”She was stunned before nodding immediately.“We’re… bros?”Her smile was not exactly natural, but she agreed anyway. “Yes, of course! We’re bros!”“Then, as a bro, I have a favor to ask…”She looked at him and focused, worried she would miss out on a word.“Do tell!”“Are you preparing to shoot your new movie?”“Hmm, yes.”“Can you…” He licked his lips and said in a troubled manner, “Can you give Michelle a chance to be a minor character in your movie?”The smile on Trinity’s face froze instantly.She clenched her fists that were next to her body, her nails deep in her skin. She then let go slowly.She wanted to say no,

Zephyr held Cordelia’s hands to coax her and calmly took her to the street.The ambulance had stopped just two junctions away from them.Zephyr and Cordelia hastened their pace and saw that plenty of people had already formed a crowd around the cafe. The paramedics acted quickly with serious faces.It was to their surprise that Janine was the one hurrying after the stretcher!“Mom!?” Zephyr could not help shouting.Janine’s head snapped up to see the both of them and was shocked.Cordelia was anxious. “Aunt Baker, is it my mom—”Before she finished her sentence, she saw Xyla walking out of the cafe in one piece.Cordelia hurried to her to hold her by the arm and scanned her from head to toe, relieved to see that her mother’s gaze was not blank. This meant that her illness had not relapsed.Despite that, she looked pale and weak, like a sheet that would break with one poke.“Mom, what’s wrong?” Cordelia’s voice was trembling. “D-Don’t… scare me!”“I’m fine.” Xyla forced a smi

“Oh, nothing.” Xyla’s voice was calm. “Just sighing about how time flies. One should really take care of their health when they get older.”“Mom…” Cordelia bit her lips. The question was on the verge of her lips, and she asked in resolution after a long time, “Have you and Uncle Irwin met?”Xyla froze before nodding lightly. “Yes.”“What a coincidence!” Cordelia beamed at her in disbelief. “Do you know that he’s the one I’ve been intending to introduce to you? Uncle Irwin also has a Siamese cat, and I wanted you to meet him with Ginger the last time!”Janine coughed while Xyla remained silent. Zephyr kept Cordelia’s hand tightly in his.Cordelia was baffled for a moment, sharply noticing that these people looked off, but she was unable to tell what was wrong in particular.Janine was meticulous. She knew that Cordelia was smart and would connect the dots when she went back and thought about it. Xyla would not be able to keep it a secret despite her intention. She might as well ki

Clark returned a while later with a laptop in his hands.When Cordelia was done eating, he waved for the servants to take her cutlery away and placed the laptop in front of her.Zephyr thought that it was odd too and went closer for a look. There were rows of entries and tightly packed numbers on the screen.“These are the accounts, not the company’s, but the whole Hamerton Manor’s.” Liam’s tone was nonchalant. “Cordelia, have a closer look. See if there’s anything wrong.”“Grandpa—”Zephyr wanted to say something, but Cordelia privately put a hand over the back of his hand. She gave him a look and shook her head lightly. She knew that Liam was testing her.Since she had found out about the illegal trade on the western suburbs’ land being related to Matthew, Liam had looked at her differently. He frequently asked Zephyr to take her home for meals and sometimes asked her questions in feigned nonchalance.Smart as Cordelia was, her answers had been tactful. She had been tested on

"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
