Semua Bab Married a Secret Billionaire: Bab 131 - Bab 140

When Cordelia wanted to keep the string, Marcus put it in his pocket first.“Darling, you…”“That’s what the old woman said,” he said. “One for you and one for me. We keep it separately, so if we’re really separated in the future—”“No, shush! We won’t be separated!” Cordelia was scared. It did not matter what the old woman said, but the word “separated” coming from Marcus gave her a heavy sense of premonition.Marcus consoled, his husky voice exceptionally gentle, “Silly, I’ll find you back even if we’re separated!”“Mn!” Cordelia nodded firmly.Seth and Linda exchanged a look and smiled in unison.The four of them walked around for a bit and returned to the hotel. The manager came to welcome them personally and took them to the best restaurant.Seth and Linda were dumbfounded when they entered. This was Edarial Dining that was said to cost a person half a year of salary for a meal! How would Cordelia reserve a place like this!?“Is this a mistake?” Cordelia was puzzled. “I b

“I’m okay.” Linda sniffled and forced a chortle as she patted the back of Cordelia’s hand.“Linda.” Cordelia paused. She did not say what she had intended to. Instead, she said softly, “Rest earlier. Don’t keep things to yourself. You can treat me as the hole in the tree. It’s better to talk about it.“But if you don’t want to, I won’t ask either.”“Cordelia, I…” Linda was hesitant to speak. It was after a while that she said in a low tone, “I don’t think I deserve Seth.”“What?”“I’m not worth Seth’s time.” Linda bit her lips. “I… That person and I, we’ve…”Although Linda did not finish her sentence, Cordelia understood what had happened. She was rather surprised. Linda had always been sunny and cheerful. She was sometimes feisty but was certainly not a casual person in terms of sleeping around.If a woman did not love a man wholeheartedly, how would she give herself away?Cordelia’s heart squeezed. She felt for Linda’s fingers and gave them a squeeze.“Linda, you’re thinking

“Y-You…”It felt like a thunderbolt slashing through the sky, hitting Cordelia on the head and blanking her thoughts.The homeless guy seemed to be aware of it, making inaudible sounds after a glance at her and shaking his head violently before he ran away with a bunch of trash like he was fleeing.Cordelia chased after him but did not manage to catch up. She was pale as she panted heavily. That face… It looked exactly like Marcus!Cordelia froze on the spot as blood gushed to her head. Her hands were icy as they quivered. She didn't even know how she walked back to the hotel.When she looked up and saw Marcus, the man put a hand on her shoulder, causing her to take a step back in reflex to look at him in a daze.“What happened?” Marcus’ voice was soft and deep.Cordelia snapped back to herself and took a deep breath.The face in front of her was chiseled and clean, with manliness oozing from the eyes. How could that homeless guy compare to Marcus?Cordelia hit her head. She

These were Xyla’s photos.The mental health hospital was relatively special. The majority of the patients had below-average immune systems. In order to prevent germs and viruses brought in through family visitations, the hospital recently changed its rules.Family members could only visit once a month while the patients had to stay in the hospital the rest of the time, taken care of by professionals.Cordelia could not see her mother whenever she pleased like she used to now. That was why Seth took photos occasionally—thanks to his duty’s convenience—and brought them to her, so she knew that her mother was doing well.“Ms. Irwin’s recovering well,” Seth said with a chuckle. “The nurse who’s taking care of her says that she’s behaving just like an ordinary person recently, whether it’s conversations or outdoor activities. I went through her medical record and asked her doctor too. Her recent dosage has been halved.”“Really?” This was undoubtedly great news to Cordelia.“Yeah.” Se

“Hey! What are you doing!?” Cordelia cried and ran to put herself in front of her husband.“I’m not doing anything!” The man looked malicious. “Ask your husband how he used to serve me… Hah, he’d put his hands up when I flicked the ash. His palms are my ashtray!”“You—”“Pretty, did you think you married some nice guy?” The man scanned Cordelia from head to toe, his gaze unsettling her.“Heh, the lowest of thugs. He was looked down on when he was in prison, and you’re treating him like a gem?” the man scoffed. “Marcus, you lucky b*stard!”“That’s enough!” Cordelia shouted fiercely. “I don’t care who you are. This is a public space. If you disrespect my husband again, I’ll call security!”The man’s gaze was sharp. “Marcus, why are you still so useless? Do you only know how to hide behind a woman?”“Uh… is something wrong?” Seth, who came later, looked at the few people, lost and sweating.He was the most worried about Linda, so he stood next to her. Before he could go close, s
