Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Cordelia barely had any sleep that night.

She was both worried for Carter and troubled by her imaginary love rival.
Moreover, it was her first time sleeping on the couch, so she kept tossing and
turning. It was near dawn when she gradually fell asleep.

Not too long into her slumber, though, she was woken up by some noises. When
she opened her eyes, Marcus had already changed and was ready to head out.
Carter had packed his bag as well and followed Marcus.

“Where are you both going?” Cordelia asked in alarm.

Marcus was dressed weirdly. He was dressed in black with a baseball cap. The
stick he held was the one he usually used when he worked out at home.
Cordelia did not have a good feeling about it.

“Are you going to fight?”

Marcus looked at her without saying anything.

Cordelia was in distress. It seemed that he was really going to fight. Since they
got married, it got to do with her each time Marcus fought, and it worried her
every time. She was afraid of something bad happening and that he would have
togoin...

Whatever it was this time, she would not let him act violently again!

“Stay out of this,” Marcus said darkly. “Those bullies won't learn their lessons if
they aren't taught one!”

“Must violence be stopped with violence?”

“What better ways are there?” Marcus looked at her with a determined and
impassive gaze. “If decent conversations worked, this world would be much more
peaceful.

“Don’t worry. I know how hard to hit. Besides, the bullies won't dare pick on
Carter again after beating them up for him. Carter’s my cousin too. I can't just
watch him get bullied!”

Warmth filled Cordelia, and she held his hand softly. There was a moment of
silence before she looked up at him. “Don’t act rashly. I have a solution.”
“What?” Marcus squinted. “What solution do you have?”

Cordelia grinned as she brandished her phone in front of him.

“We can’t counter violence with violence in this case, or the troubles will be
endless. My solution will put an end to all troubles! But Carter will have to suck it
up one more time, okay?”

Marcus paused and finally put down his stick. He listened to Cordelia and
changed into his normal clothes. After breakfast, the two of them sent Carter to
school together.

Cordelia had asked Carter to go in front while she and Marcus followed him from
a distance.

Before they got to the school gate, they saw a few senior high school kids
approach Carter. They surrounded him, patting his shoulders and tugging his
backpack with ulterior smirks.

Carter trembled in fear the moment he saw them and did not dare make a sound
when he was dragged off to a deserted corner.

Cordelia and Marcus kept up swiftly and hid at the side.

The school bullies surrounded Carter and began hitting him. As Carter crouched
in the center, his cries echoed a while later.

Cordelia suppressed her heartache and the urge to stop them. Instead, she
chose the best angle and recorded the scene clearly with her phone. When she
had enough footage, she met eyes with Marcus, and the latter rushed over to
kick the high school kids off.

Carter had new wounds on his face, but they were nothing serious. Marcus kept
him behind and scanned the high school seniors with a strict gaze.

“Wow, Carter. H-how dare you get help!?” The fat guy who was the leader was
brazen. “Just wait! Stay here if you dare. I'll get my guys and see if that'll kill you!”
“It's not quite possible for you to kill them,” a soft voice said clearly. “The few of
you should, instead, think if your parents will kill you when word about you being
bullies gets out.”
