Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 697
Aurelia widened her eyes in horror. She stared at Neil and felt chills run down her spine.The man was dressed properly and exuded a noble air, but his gaze was sharp, and he did not look like he had kind intentions.Neil gripped her wrist and could not help tightening his hold.The pain caused Aurelia to cry. “Mister, let go please!”“You haven’t answered my question.”“What question?” Aurelia blinked. “Oh, where this jacket came from? Hah, well…”She went closer to him—her innocent smile carried a hint of sensuality, and there was a playful look.“Let go of me, and I’ll tell you!”Neil could not help relaxing his grip.The next second, however, Aurelia shoved him away and ran in the opposite direction like a fleeing bunny.‘A police officer! He must be a police officer!’Aurelia’s heart thumped.Why would he wear such a strange expression if he was not a police officer? It was just a torn jacket. Did he have to ask things like, “did you peel it off a dead man”?It was a

Aurelia’s mind blanked. She had never encountered a situation like this.She lived like a sewer rat for her first 18 years of life. She had never harmed anyone of her own will, but she had had to turn her back on certain things for profits and self-preservation—things like a regular person’s awareness.Upon seeing the stabbed Fredric, a regular person’s first reaction would be to call the police and send him to the hospital.She could not do it. She could not leave him to die but was unwilling to implicate herself because of it.Dragging Fredric back to treat his wound to prevent him from dying on the street due to blood loss was already the best she could do.Aurelia’s heart thumped as she lost her bearing. An evil thought flashed in her mind. She could very well turn around, leave, and lock the door to allow the man to fend for himself in there. When the sun set, she could then drag him out and throw him somewhere. Nobody would know.She sucked in a cold breath. She slapped her

Zephyr and Cordelia rushed to the hospital as soon as they received the news.Numerous people were gathered outside the operation ward. Trinity sat on the bench with an anxious look, the lucky charm clutched in her hand.Cordelia patted Zephyr’s back, softly coaxing him that everything would turn out fine.The bodyguards from Southeast Aciatic guarded each exit of the floor with a straight face. Forget a living person, even a fly would find it hard to leave.Aurelia stood as close to the wall as possible as she timidly scanned the group of people before her. Her metal box stayed close to her.These people looked rich and powerful with high status. Fredric was their friend… What would they do to her then?Aurelia dared not think about it. She felt chills running down her and hugged her metal box tighter. All her money was in the box. She had wanted to send Fredric to the hospital with it, but it did not seem needed now.What was currently happening could no longer be resolved wit

Aurelia held her breath. Her stiff limbs quivered, and she stared at the officer for a while before abruptly avoiding his gaze.He said that she looked familiar… He might frequently patrol the slums and have kept his eyes on the nomads.Aurelia’s face was hard to forget.She bit her lips and blinked her big eyes. She was usually bubbling with ideas, but she was now at a loss.The grip on her shoulders grew stronger as the man’s gentle and husky voice sounded.“Familiar?” Neil chuckled and hugged her tighter. “I told you, I’m an actor. My fiancee too. Both of us starred in the same film before!”The police officer raised a brow in doubt.“Some of our films get translated into Chaisene and played abroad. It’s not odd at all that you think she looks familiar, officer. She’s always on the screen. Everyone knows her!”“Really…”The police officer hesitated and returned Neil’s passport to him, taking a final glance at Aurelia. He was still skeptical, but his subordinate spoke next t

“Mister…” Aurelia’s voice was shaky. “May I know what ‘people like us’ are like to you?”Neil’s disdainful attitude and despising gaze made him a completely different person from the man who saved her from the police just now. Something sharp seemed to have pierced the pink bubble within her as it burst.Yeah, “people like her” must not be worthy of a glance from him.“Ms. Chilton, don’t be upset,” Cordelia said gently, “Fredric’s our friend, and we’re worried for him now that he got into danger. The entire matter feels suspicious too, so we hope you can tell us the truth.”Aurelia bent down to pick up the metal box on the floor and held it close to her.What truth did she have to tell? She had repeated the truth thousands of times, but they did not believe her!“Acting mute again?” Neil raised his voice, gripping her arm.Aurelia gasped in pain. She barely knew him for the day, but he had already grabbed her arm so many times that there was already a mark.“Why do you think I

Aurelia froze. The hand before her was fair and supple, unlike the many pairs of rough ones she had seen in the basement.It felt like there was a halo around the owner of the hand. She was beautiful and gentle, but there was a sense of determination in her gaze. It made people want to get closer to her.It was just that Aurelia knew that “people like her” could not dirty a hand so clean. She looked down, took a deep breath, and stood up on her own.Cordelia took the initiative to hold her hand.Aurelia’s heart felt like something poked it as she looked at Cordelia in a daze. After some time, she asked, “Y-You believe me? ‘People like me’ do everything from tricking to stealing. I might be acting.”Cordelia chuckled and tucked her hair by her ear.“You don’t know how to act. But we actually have an award-winning actor here. You can ask him about acting skills. Who knows? You may be able to use it the next time you encounter the police.”Aurelia paused before a giggle escaped her

Fredric had been transferred to the VIP hospital ward, and Trinity had been taking care of him these days.His trip to Chaiseland this time felt extraordinary. He still felt like he was dreaming. It was just that the dream was wonderful. Each time he opened his eyes, he could see Trinity by his side.“You don’t have to push so hard,” Fredric said softly. “There are doctors and nurses. It’s too tiring for you to stay here every day.”“Why? You don’t want me to keep you company?”Trinity brought fresh strawberries that looked full and juicy. She held one in front of Fredric, but the latter only smiled without moving.Trinity paused. “You don’t like this?”“No.” Fredric looked at her, reluctant to look away for even a second. “Have the sweet tip of the strawberry. I’ll have the top!”Trinity grinned with wet eyes.“Trinity…” Fredric put a hand on the back of hers. “Do you still blame me?”Trinity pressed her lips together and said nothing with a lowered head.“Do you know why I

“Mm, no problem,” Fredric agreed easily.Trinity was then at a loss. ‘W-Why is he not reacting the way he should?’The plot should go like she said she wanted to search his bag, and he would stop her with all his might. Then she would get up and take the bag to rummage it in front of him, and he would panic and grab it. As they pushed and pulled, he would pull her over, and… their lips would touch, and the whole world would turn pink!This was the first time in her director’s career that someone was not going according to the storyline!Fredric smiled. “My bag’s just over there. Bring it over for me.”Trinity blushed and looked at him weakly before passing him the bag.“Open it, the innermost pocket.”Trinity did as she was told.The lawyer’s bag was rectangular, with three pockets inside and three more outside, carrying important case materials.She felt inside as he instructed and suddenly felt a small item with a familiar touch of fabric… She pulled it out to see that it wa

"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
