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.
