Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

“D-Did you make a mistake?”

After a moment of silence, Yelena yelled with her shrill voice, “How is it possible
that you're looking for her!?”

“May I know if you're Ms. Cordelia Jenner?” The man had a smile on his face, but
his eyes were cold. “If you're not, please step back!”

“You—"

“This is the Splendor Dynasty. The Hamertons are hosting the dinner,” the man
said flatly. “It's my job to decide who to welcome and who not to welcome. I don’t
need you to tell me how to do my job!”

Yelena's face paled from the rage. The corner of her lips twitched, and she could
not squeeze a word.

Joanne and William looked at each other, troubled. They thought what was
happening was odd.

It was Cordelia! How would a disgraced illegitimate daughter deserve to be in
such an event!?

“Ms. Jenner.” The man walked to Cordelia and nodded respectfully. “Please
come with me.”

Cordelia’s heart was pounding. As if she was struck by lightning, her chaotic mind
was now empty.

“Sir, d-did you make a mistake?” she asked softly in a testing manner. “I don’t
have an invitation. And I'm not here for the ball. I just want to deliver some
documents...”

“Please come with me, Ms. Jenner. Don’t get me in trouble.” Smiling, the man
looked at her.

“Hey!” Joanne was pissed and tucked at the man. “What about us?”

The man smirked. “Do you have an invitation?”

“What invitation!?” Joanne looked like a shrewd woman with her hands on her
hips. “Go ask around. The young lady of the Quimbies of Centrolis is m-my aunt's
niece! She'll grant us access to the ball! Who are you to ask for the invitation
from me!?”

“The Quimbies?” The man pursed his lips and chuckled out loud. “Ma'am, I'm the
Splendor Dynasty’s general manager. I work for the four families. Forgive me for
being ignorant, but I don’t see the Quimbies on the list.”

Joanne’s expression changed. William glared at her angrily.

At that moment, more and more people were passing by. Some looked at them
curiously. Their eyes were like sharp blades, making William ashamed.

“Ms. Jenner.” The general manager stretched his arm respectfully. “After you!”
Cordelia pursed her lips and went with him. The general manager clapped, and
two attendants instantly came over, stopping reporters from bothering her.
Yelena stomped hard as she watched Cordelia being escorted to the dazzling
hall like a star.

Cordelia went into a room with the general manager. It was beautiful as if it was a
fairy’s lair.

However, the room was located far from the banquet hall. She could no longer
hear the noise.

Exquisite and sumptuous dishes were served on the table. There were even
attendants on call.

Just as Cordelia was confused by the situation, the general manager smiled at
her. “You may eat first, Ms. Jenner. My master knew that you didn’t come in a
gown, so he arranged to put you here. Are you happy with this?”

Cordelia was stunned before nodding hard.

“Master said it's fine if you don't go to the dinner as long as you're well-fed and
have fun.”

“May I know who your master is...”

The general manager showed a cryptic smile while looking at the documents she
was holding.

“Who are you giving these documents to, Ms. Jenner?”

Cordelia thought about it. Could it be that Josiah had seen her trying to get into
the Bayer Group this afternoon?

She was surprised by the high and mighty man being kind to a guest. He had
arranged her somewhere far from the hall. She did not have to be drowned in the
crowd, yet she would be fed and rested all she wanted here.

Perhaps she could get this man to deliver the sales proposal...

Cordelia smiled and bowed at the general manager. She then placed the
documents in his hands with all seriousness.

After returning to Jangasas, Cordelia excitedly told Marcus about it.

He sat on the couch, watching her lady cleaning the house while telling her story
like a happy magpie.

He chuckled as if they were a world apart.

Cordelia was over the moon. Not only had she managed to deliver the sales
proposal, but she was also happy that she saw Joanne and Yelena’s raging faces
when they were stopped at the door.

However, she did not tell Marcus about it.

Therefore, Josiah’s name was repeated many times throughout her story.

“I thought I'd return with nothing. All thanks to Mr. Bayer, I finally sent the
proposal out. I've done my job.

“I didn’t expect Mr. Bayer to be so nice to be inviting me in! But I didn’t join that
ball. I was only eating in a beautiful room.

“He’s different from what I imagined. I thought a person who was born with a
silver spoon in his mouth like him would be playful... I didn’t expect him to be
ambitious!”

“Ambitious?”

Marcus was quite pissed already. He was fuming when he heard that. He could
not help but scoff.

“Did you see him? Did you talk to him?”

“I didn’t.” Feeling embarrassed, Cordelia scratched her head. “But isn't he
ambitious to be willing to look at my proposal?”

“All you know about him is limited to pictures and some official information. The
dinner was the biggest connection you guys had, but you have never met him...
You can tell that he’s ambitious just from that?”

Cordelia peeped at Marcus carefully and noticed something was wrong. He
looked terrible.

She was stunned when she asked softly, “Wh-What’s wrong, hubby? Are you
mad?”

“D-Did you make a mistake?”

After a moment of silence, Yelena yelled with her shrill voice, “How is it possible
that you're looking for her!?”

“May I know if you're Ms. Cordelia Jenner?” The man had a smile on his face, but
