Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Fredric did not dare to raise his head as he did not want to face Marcus’ piercing gaze.

After a long while of silence, he stammered, “Z, you’re not the true Marcus. You’re just using his

identity. Since you’re using his ID card, you also registered your marriage with his ID card.

“So from the perspective of the law, the one who married Cordelia is Marcus, not Zephyr.”

Josiah sprang up and said, “But the real Marcus is dead!”

“Yes…” Fredric’s voice was getting lower and lower as he continued to speak. “So it’s invalid. Because

he’s already dead.”

A silence descended in the room.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Marcus, and then they lowered their heads.

Marcus’ face was getting darker and darker with each passing moment.

‘That’s right… Why didn’t I think of it earlier?’

When they were registering their marriage, they were not there. It was the Jenners who did everything

for them with their ID cards. The people from the city hall did not check whether the real Marcus was

still alive or was already dead either.

Therefore, the name “Zephyr” had never appeared on their marriage certificate.

Marcus pinched the center of his forehead, and the veins on his temples were throbbing.

“Z, but it doesn’t matter either,” Josiah said softly. “We… We just need to find a chance and redo the

marriage certificate in secret.”

“Can you use your brain and think? It isn’t something that can be done that easily!” Fredric glared at

him.

“Why not?” Josiah replied stubbornly, “Yes, the Hamertons won’t accept Cordelia, but as long as Z likes

her, nothing will be a problem!”

Fredric was rendered speechless. He darted a few daggers at him before turning his head back.

Josiah continued. “You don’t know anything, Freddy. It isn’t that easy to find the love of your life. Do you

know what the most precious thing in our life is? It’s love!

“Now that Z has finally found the woman of his life, he has to do everything he can to protect her and

cherish her— Ugh!”

Before he could finish his sentence, Fredric covered his mouth.

It went without saying that he did not want to separate Marcus and Cordelia either.

But the Hamertons were not that easy to deal with. Nobody knew what they were fully capable of.

What Marcus needed right now was a calm and rational mind. He must not be driven by emotion.

“I’m going home,” said Marcus. He finished the red wine in the glass in one gulp and left the club.

Josiah and Fredric’s words were playing in his mind.

Since he was a kid, he knew that no Hamerton had not any control over their own marriage. If they

wanted to get married, then the marriage must be able to bring profit to their family.

Even though his father had abandoned his mother and married another woman, Zennie’s mother came

from a prestigious family as well. Her family was even on par with the four large families.

Therefore, he did not have any expectations of his marriage, and he had never tried to get into a

relationship before.

That was until he met Cordelia.

Marcus’ eyebrows were tightly knotted, and his mind was a muddled mess right now.

Marcus did not know how it happened, but by the time he realized it, he had already arrived at his

home. He took one last drag from his cigarette before entering the house. Once he stepped into the

house, he was welcomed by the aroma of food.

Cordelia was rushing here and there in the kitchen. When she heard Marcus’ voice, she turned her

head around and offered him a sweet smile. After a short while, she carried a bowl of soup out of the

kitchen and told him to wash his hands as the dinner was ready.

Marcus looked at her and let out a smile.

In fact, he hated yam root since he was a child. However, Cordelia kept making yam root for him in

different styles and telling him the benefits of soup.

Not only soup, but he did not like other nutritious vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions as

well.

However, Cordelia treated them like some kind of medicine that would prolong their life, so she would

try her best to persuade him to eat them.

Marcus’ eyes were misted over. He went into the kitchen and hugged her from the back.

Cordelia was stunned for a moment and turned off the heat. Marcus rested his chin on her shoulder

and took a deep sniff.

The smell of the food mixed with her body scent tickled his nostrils. For him, this was the most

wonderful smell in the world.

“Honey?” She asked, her voice tickling his heart, “What’s the matter?”

Marcus did not say anything but tightened his arms.

Cordelia was worried about him. She tried to turn around in his arms and cupped his face between her

palms. To her surprise, his eyes were red around the rims!

She was shocked and asked, “What happened, honey?”

Marcus had always been a tough man. He did not even shed a single tear even though he was held at

gunpoint.

“Did something happen at your workplace?” She blinked and patted his head like she was comforting a

kid.

“If you’re unhappy with your job, you can just quit. It isn’t a big deal. After all, I don’t like your job at all.

You need to fight with so many people, which is dangerous. Other female trainees keep looking at you

as well…

“It’s okay, honey. If you don’t like it, you can just quit. I can take care of you!”

Marcus chuckled and looked at her without saying anything.

Cordelia turned her eyes around and caressed his cheek. “But my husband doesn’t need to rely on a

woman. He’s a man. It’s just that he’s a bit tired right now. After he has enough rest, I’m sure he’ll

become great again—”

Before Cordelia could finish her sentence, Marcus landed a kiss on her lips.

She was stunned for a moment, and her heart leaped into a gallop. Marcus was more enthusiastic

today. As he deepened the kiss, he took off her clothes…

“Don’t!” Cordelia huffed. She placed her hands on his chest and said, “I still have one more dish…”

But he could not wait any longer. He carried her into their room and closed the door with his leg.

Cordelia clutched at him tightly.

“Cordelia…” His voice was hoarse. “Why don’t we have a baby?”

After everything had ended, Marcus stood on the balcony, his large stature merging into the boundless

dark sky. He took another cigarette and stomped on the cigarette but on the floor.

‘What would you do if you found out that your husband is rich one day?’

‘We’re two different people from two different worlds, so I’d break up with him.’

‘From the perspective of the law, your marriage is invalid. Cordelia is Marcus’ wife, but you’re Zephyr.’

His heart skipped a beat, and he grabbed the railing so tightly that his knuckles were turning white.

He turned his head around. Cordelia was sleeping soundly right now. When he thought of her reaction

just now, a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

‘If we have a child, everything will be different, right?’

Marcus took a deep breath.

He experienced a lot of things when he was in the Hamertons, and he even survived a plane crash.

But right now, there was a sense of fear tugging at the back of his mind. He was getting more and more

afraid of losing her.
