Marcus played with Cordelia’s long hair with a smile, seeing that she was a little down.
“What’s the matter?”
Cordelia sighed and chortled wryly.
“I don’t have any good idea to seek revenge from them for now,” she said softly. “I don’t want word
about this matter to get out since it’s not exactly glorious. People like them get to live their lives like
nothing happened after what they did, but I can’t do anything to them.
“I can only pretend nothing ever happened and endure it for now until the day I’m powerful enough to
fight them and settle the score with them!”
Marcus chuckled lightly as he looked at her.
Cordelia was not a soft pushover. This woman was tough, clear with what she loved and hated,
resilient, and patient. She would avenge if there was a grudge, and she was able to stay calm and help
herself in a crisis. She even had the determination and courage to risk it all.
She was like a female version of him.
The corners of Marcus’ lips curled up high. The more he thought about it, the happier he was. This was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhat his woman should be like!
Since he had been conspired against, he had been holding back in patience, even changing his identity
to live in Jangasas. It was all so he could defeat Matthew and his people one day.
He could endure it but was reluctant to let his woman go through such grievances.
“Darling, question.” He chuckled. “If you had superpowers, how would you take care of those who
harmed you?”
“What?” Cordelia widened her eyes at him.
“We’re chatting anyway. Let your imagination run wild.” He looked at her. “Fantasize it. How would you
punish them?”
Cordelia blinked and grinned innocently. “It’s not exactly a punishment. I just hope that they have their
retribution, go through what I went through, and never ever appear before me!”
Marcus nodded and whispered next to her ear, “Got it.”
“What did you say?”
“Nothing.” He helped her lie back down. “You must be tired. Have a good sleep. I’ll get you some
congee.”
Cordelia went back to sleep, and Marcus slipped out of the hospital ward.
Josiah stood outside apologetically and obsequiously. He had also injured his leg as he limped with a
crutch while his head was wrapped like a dumpling. Fredric helped support him on the side, and the
two of them had been waiting here for some time.
Marcus glared at him with a heated gaze.
“Z, I-I’m really sorry…” Josiah winced. “But I swear, if I have any ulterior thoughts about Cordelia that
night, I’ll get run over by a car once I go out!”
“You’ve already been rammed by a car,” Marcus said coldly. “You’re lucky it didn’t kill you!”
Josiah froze and chuckled. “Z, I wanted to send sis-in-law back that night, but I had to put up an act in
front of those two scums, right? What if—”
“You don’t have to explain. I understand.”
Marcus’ expression was icy.
Matthew could send someone to harm him at any time. Jangasas was no longer safe now. He would be

fewer people who knew about him and Cordelia, the better.
“You heard what she told me just now?”
Josiah was startled, while Fredric reacted faster and asked instantly, “About punishing Michael and
Jesse?”
Marcus nodded.
Fredric grimaced. “Z, are we really doing as she wishes?”
“What else?” Marcus’ gaze sharpened as he raised his voice. “Should I do it myself instead?”
“We’ll do it! Of course we’ll do it!” Josiah wanted nothing more than a chance to redeem himself.
“Whoever sis-in-law doesn’t want to meet will never appear in front of her in the future!”
Marcus made a low hum and went off to buy congee with his hands on his back.
Fredric looked at Josiah speechlessly.
“Say… Will Z still be able to go back to Centrolis?”
“I’m not worried about this.” Josiah smiled. “Given Cordelia’s stubbornness, I’m worried about what she
will do when she finds out that Z isn’t Marcus one day.”
