Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 536
“Oh.” Zephyr nodded.Liam sighed and was deep in thought. “She’s wonderful, but her birth…”‘Birth?’Zephyr smirked. Although he looked down on Rowan—and the old geezer had probably lost his mind recently, treating him like an enemy whenever he saw him—the man was still Cordelia’s biological father.He could tolerate him. One’s love had to extend to their family too, right?Zephyr composed himself and was planning to tell Liam about Cordelia’s birth, but before the words left his mouth, Liam suddenly looked at him in resolution.“Zephyr, I’ve decided to find Cordelia a family to get her godparents!”“What?” Zephyr was astonished.“The marriage of convenience is passed down for generations among the four major families.” Liam wore a complicated gaze. “This is the rule left by the ancestors. It can’t be broken here at my time.“But I really like Cordelia, so the best choice is to give her godparents.”“Grandpa—”“I’ll find her a family with a significant background. This way,

When Zephyr returned to Royal Manor, Cordelia was learning from Helen in the kitchen.Helen reduced the heat while the soup in the clay pot bubbled. The whole house was aromatic and filled with simple warmth.“The last step is to add this… and done!” Helen taught Cordelia step by step, and the latter learned seriously.“That’s all?”“Yeap!”“Mm.” Cordelia took a deep breath. “It does smell better with these added.”“You and Mr. Z can both have some of this soup. Winter’s starting now, and it’s cold and dry. It’s time for some nourishment.”“Okay,” Cordelia assented with a smile, putting the lid back on the pot and turning the fire off.Helen was astonished. “Y-You’re not drinking?”“I’ll wait for him to return and have it together!”“Didn’t Mr. Z go to the manor today? He probably won’t be back so soon! Just have your portion and leave him his!”“No way! It isn’t the same eating by myself.” Cordelia smiled. “I want to wait for him!”The girl’s sweet voice jolted Zephyr, who

”Ms. Lulham!” Someone made a sensual drawl of a cry and sashayed her way to Trinity. She looked at her with a coquettish complaint and plopped herself down on the empty seat next to her.“What is it?” Trinity pinched between her brows, looking tired.Said someone was Millie Hill. She had spent years working happily with Trinity and was also a significant award-winning actress in the industry.She was one of the outstanding performers when the female artists had worked together to embarrass Michelle back at the Tanners’ event.Although she was fussy and occasionally fantasized about having a sugar daddy, her acting talent and skill were unbeatable. The credit was partially hers in the few films with which Trinity had won awards.Basically, both of them had contributed significantly to each other’s careers coming to this day.“I mean, can you change the second lead?” Millie was straightforward. “With how we’re filming, when are we finishing the scene between her and me? I’m still w

Trinity went up to look at Michelle seriously. “Michelle, this scene is a close-up shot, so we’ll need your cooperation.“Which means this take… will be a real hit.”“What!?” Michelle’s face fell. She snickered after a while, “Hah, this is all the famous director Ms. Trinity Lulham knows? Why does it have to be a real hit?”Trinity did her best to keep her cool. “I told you. It’s a close-up shot. To have the best effect, it can only be a real hit. But don’t worry, Millie’s an experienced actress. She often had to do the same during filming last time. She knows how to control herself.”“As if!” Michelle glared at her. “Trinity, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Do I have to actually let the car run over me in an accident scene when I have to take a real hit in a slapping scene?”Trinity was at a loss for words at that moment.Back then… Trinity promised Frederic she would treat Michelle well when the latter joined the crew. Frederic even bought her a meal because he was

Trinity froze and turned to the door stiffly.As expected, Frederic was standing there. There were many crew members there as well.Trinity caught the disappointment in Frederic’s eyes. She wanted to explain herself but felt choked. Her lips moved, but there was no sound produced.Michelle threw herself into Frederic’s arms in front of everyone.Frederic froze, his hand hesitant before he patted Michelle’s shoulder lightly.“Frederic, listen…” Trinity bit her lips. “Just now…”“I heard about it just now, and I saw it too.” Frederic’s voice was calm without any ruffle of emotions, but his eyes were clearly brimming with disappointment toward her.Trinity’s heart clenched, and pain spread all over her.Frederic stepped toward her with a complicated gaze. “Trinity, Michelle’s a singer and has just shifted her path to acting. She mustn’t know a lot of rules. Please teach her patiently, will you? If there’s something she did wrong, I’ll apologize on behalf of her—”“Mr. Constable,

“What about winning awards? Can’t keep up with having a guardian angel!”Frederic could hear the sarcasm in Millie’s tone and knew the complexity of the entertainment industry. Michelle had to depend on Trinity to survive. He took a discreet glance at Trinity only to see the latter’s reddened eyes and felt his heart clench for no reason.Cordelia padded to Michelle. “How are you getting used to the set life, Ms. Carmichael?”Frederic was happy to see Cordelia’s concern for Michelle and immediately gestured for the latter to speak more to Cordelia.Despite that, Michelle’s gaze toward Cordelia was obviously one of jealousy and fear.“I brought you a unique set of tea.” Cordelia waved a hand with a smile, and someone behind her took out what was in the small basket.The dessert on the pretty porcelain was in the shape of a snake.“Ms. Carmichael, don’t have such a hot temper when you’ve just joined the crew. Be like this snake. It’s good to be cooler.”Everyone knew that Cordelia

Trinity met Cordelia’s eyes and smiled, perking herself up.“Get ready.” She picked up the walkie-talkie and kept a serious gaze on the screen. “Action!”“B*tch!” When the camera zoomed into Millie, the award-winning actress did not disappoint. She raised her arm and slapped Michelle!Michelle gasped and held her cheek automatically, seeing stars from the pain.Millie’s hair was disheveled, and the buttons of her collar popped. She was living her character—a feisty woman. She pointed at Michelle and scolded vehemently, “Sl*t! How dare you snatch my man!? Look at yourself first!”Millie somehow felt what she said. She was engrossed, imagining herself to be Trinity as she glared at Michelle.“Good, wonderful!” The assistant director instructed from the side, “Watch your emotions. Hmm… give me more! Yes, camera zoom in… Continue with the lines!”“Get up now! Fight back! Hah, pretending to be weak in front of me? It might work on the men but not me!“I’m going to kill you today!”

“Thank you.”“We’re good bros, right? No worries!” Frederic chuckled and lowered his head to look at her. “Uh… you’re not angry anymore now?”“Huh?”“I know that you’re a rational and mature girl. You’re friendly and genuine too. So… Michelle must have been in the wrong to have angered you like that. I’ll apologize on her behalf. Stop being mad, okay?”Trinity froze. The haze that had just dissipated came back in full force again.All in all, he had gifted her the charm because of Michelle. She was sensible to him, so the sensible one should be forgiving and understanding, benevolent and merciful, not be calculative even when wronged—because only children who threw tantrums would be given candies!Trinity could not get herself to act like Michelle. She despised that too.That was why she could never compare to Michelle in Frederic’s eyes.There was a bitter smile on Trinity’s face. When she looked down, the charm did not look so radiant anymore.…Later, the men gathered in

"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
