Semua Bab Married a Secret Billionaire: Bab 71 - Bab 80

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

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

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

“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

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
