Chapter 71

The hall recovered its order. Everyone interacted as if what happened just now did not exist. In their talks privately, though, mockery about Giselle was made.Marcus pulled Cordelia to dance. The latter was not good at it, but no one could see that with the man’s lead. They gained a round of applause after the song ended.Giselle was shaking in anger while Yelena glared at her.“Useless!”“Yelena, you—”“Don’t you label yourself as a socialite? Don’t men buzz around you?” Yelena was fuming. “You can’t even take care of Marcus! Look at your cowardly response once he said that he had killed someone! What are you if not useless?”Giselle pressed her lips together. She was also disgruntled. She had agreed with Yelena that they would embarrass Cordelia at the dinner, only for it to turn out to be herself.When she first met Marcus, she was also attracted by the latter’s tall and handsome appearance. When he told her that he had killed someone with a smile, though, the dark sharpness

Chapter 72

Giselle showed off in the crowd holding her phone. The photo on the screen did show Yelena with a man.“Don’t know him, right? This is Mr. Z Hamerton! Yelena was at his welcoming dinner!”“The third heir of Centrolis’ Hamertons?”“Of course! He’s the real rich man!”Everyone looked at Yelena enviously. They knew that Mr. Z Hamerton kept a low profile. He had never made an official appearance in the media to this day, and people who got to meet him were few and far between.Not only had Yelena been invited to the Hamerton’s event, but she had even taken a photo with Mr. Z. It was an immense honor.Compliments and flattery sounded one after another.Yelena had a guilty conscience. She had not wanted Giselle to broadcast it like that, but since no one exposed her, she accepted the admiration in peace. So what if Cordelia was the one who had gone in that night? If she dared speak a word about it, she would have ways to take care of her!Yelena looked around and saw Cordelia and Mar

The commanding presence that the man naturally exuded stunned even Oliver, who had seen countless people.“Mr. Jones, look!” Someone passed the phone to him. “This is Ms. Yelena Jenner’s photo with Mr. Z Hamerton!”“You guys were talking about this just now?”“Yeah!”Oliver looked at Yelena, who kept her composure and looked arrogant.Oliver smiled politely at first, but his smile soon froze.“Ms. Jenner.” He looked at her. “Are you sure this is Mr. Z?”Yelena was alarmed, and the way she looked at him was nervous.“H-How… is it not?” She forced herself to calm down. After all, no one had seen what Zephyr looked like. At least not in this small dinner, no.“It was Mr. Z Hamerton’s welcome-back dinner that day. Our family was invited to Centrolis.” Yelena looked nonchalant as she checked her manicured nails. “The dinner’s huge, with the wealthiest people around the world all gathered there. It was a real eye-opener!“I wonder if you’ve been, Mr. Jones.”Yelena snorted. Oliver

“You… All of you, shut up!” Yelena was furious from her embarrassment and turned to run away. However, she sprained her foot on her high heel and hissed in pain.Cordelia stood next to her, coldly watching her pathetic state. She had brought this upon herself.Cordelia pursed her lips. She did not sympathize with Yelena. It was just that she was also a Jenner, so she was one with Yelena to the outsiders. How could she not be embarrassed when she had a family like this?Before Yelena left, she glared daggers at Cordelia and nearly crushed her teeth from how hard she was gritting them.Oliver smiled and looked at the crowd. “It’s a misunderstanding. Go on with the event!”The dinner resumed. Cordelia was not in the mood anymore and was going to turn around when Oliver called out for her from the back.“Ms. Jenner, please hold on.”Cordelia could only turn around and greet the man.Oliver noticed the jade ring on her hand and looked at Marcus, who was beside her. “Aren’t you intro

Marcus smiled back at her and held her hand.“Yeah, we’ve gotten a real good deal.”With how the husband and wife were chorusing each other, it would be tactless for Oliver to pursue the matter further. Thus, he came up with an excuse and left.After some effort, Cordelia left the event with Marcus through the side door.As both of them walked on the street behind the hotel, the night was bright with the moon and scattered stars. The air was fresh with the fragrance of plants exclusive to this season, and it felt reinvigorating as the breeze blew.There were even fireflies in the bushes, blinking and complementing the dark blue sky.Cordelia smiled and rested her head against Marcus’ shoulder. They strolled slowly, enjoying the rare leisure and quiet.“Why did you say that just now?” Marcus suddenly asked her.Cordelia paused and answered softly, “You mustn’t want Oliver to know too much about us, right?”“How did you know?”“You’re my husband. Of course I know you!” Cordelia

Marcus was rendered speechless. “Wifey, I thought we’d not be talking about Mr. Z anymore?”…Oliver waited outside Matthew’s private club.The club was beneath Splendor Mountain. It was very hidden. Apart from the dense broadleaf plants around, there were rows of bodyguards in sunglasses and suits. They were watching expressionlessly.Someone finally came out after a long wait and invited Oliver in courteously.Matthew had just finished with his spa. He lay on the soft deck chair with someone kneeling next to him, giving him a massage.Oliver recognized the smell of the top-grade cigar as soon as he entered.“Sir, this is… Laroux from Nesarus, right?”“You’ve got a great nose!” Matthew glanced at him at the side of his eye. He lifted his chin to get his men to get Oliver a stool.Oliver showed a fawning smile and sat straight on the stool.“Why are you here?” Matthew’s eyes were half closed. He was puffing on the cigar and looked like he was indulging. He was arrogant toward

“But sir, I found out that—”Matthew's phone rang when Oliver was going to tell him about the emerald ring. His subordinate brought his phone, so Matthew warned Oliver with his eyes, getting him to shut his mouth immediately.Matthew got up slowly to pick up the phone. He only returned after a while.He glared coldly at Oliver when he returned. “Leave.”“Sir?”“Zephyr is in Melorian, Chaiseland!” Matthew had used up all of his patience. “He’s going to Ricos tomorrow, then Puarvis the day after! Where the hell did you get this useless information!?”He tossed the document about Marcus into the air, and the papers fell like snow.Oliver was stunned. Subsequently, Matthew’s subordinate showed him a video. The person had his back facing the camera, but one could see that he was dressed in expensive clothes.The background of the scene was Melorian’s landmark building—the Rylands Square.“T-That’s impossible!”“Why is it impossible?” Matthew rolled his eyes at him. “I’d recognize

Chapter 78

“You don’t know?” Stunned, Annie told Cordelia with a serious face, “It’s about you and Mr. Jones. They say it’s as if he’s possessed that he kept giving you business. He was the one who pushed you to the supervisor’s position.”Cordelia was stunned.Now that she thought about it carefully, there seemed to be a rumor like that. Furthermore, Oliver was strange indeed. He gave the company five sales at once, and he asked for Cordelia exclusively.With such outstanding performance, how could she not be promoted?However…“The projects I’m working on with Mr. Jones are win-win,” she mumbled. “It’s just that I don’t understand why he insisted on working with me.”“He definitely values your capability!” Annie patted her shoulder. “Don’t overthink it. I’m guessing it was Karine who spread the rumor. She lost her power, and given that she’s not capable, she’s jealous of you!“Don’t worry, Cordelia. We’ll support you. All you’ve got to do is to fight her with all you have to the very end

Chapter 79

Cordelia took out her phone and showed Marcus all of the texts that Oliver had sent her lately.“He looks like he cares about me, but he’s actually asking about you.” She was smart. “Also, he gave me five sales when I was promoted to supervisor. It became something that people talked about in the office! Also, there’s only one objective of why he’s working with me—to obtain your information.”Marcus squinted. He knew what was happening.He became suspicious when he saw Oliver at the ball the other night. That was especially so after showing an unusual interest in the ring Cordelia was wearing. That made him put his guard up.It seemed like Oliver might be Matthew’s man.Marcus scoffed. His second uncle was too impatient. Even if he got someone to watch him, he should not get someone who would expose himself so easily! However, if Matthew found out that he was in Jangasas instead of Melorian, he might be in trouble.He looked at Cordelia. This young lady was kind and pure. She was

With his head held low, Marcus gave a peck on Cordelia’s smooth forehead.“Wifey, do you know what an athlete must do before a competition?”Her bright eyes filled with doubt. She shook her head innocently.Marcus smirked and whispered into her ear, “To stay abstinent.”Cordelia was stunned.“If one allows their feelings to take over them, their limbs will be weak in the fighting ring. They’ll definitely lose the match.“So you’re the one to blame.” Marcus looked at her and played with her flushed earlobe. “I can’t hold back when I see you. We’re together every day… How am I supposed to stay abstinent?”“Hey…”Cordelia glared at him in a coquettish manner. There was light in her beautiful eyes.It was men who had poor self-control from the beginning of time, yet they were blaming that on women. That was not fair!She bit her lip softly, looking unwilling. Meanwhile, what she did looked more like seduction to him.A burning desire was flowing through his body, making him lose
