Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 106

Josiah cleared his throat and tried to switch to another topic. "So... Where were we just now? Zennie, what is going on in Centrolis?"

Zennie looked at her brother and said, "Our uncle has done quite a lot of things recently. He always picks fights with dad in the board meetings, and grandpa ignores him! What's more, he said that you stay in Chaiseland because you don't like our grandpa anymore and you want to leave the Hamertons..."

Josiah let out a scoff and said, "And your grandpa believes him?"

"He might not believe it if our uncle just said it once or twice, but..." Marcus said sternly, "If he says it a thousand times, even a lie will become the truth."

The rest of the people fell silent.

"Other than our uncle, Yale has been doing something as well." Zennie continued. "Brother, you need to be more careful. I heard that Yale has been in touch with people from the underworld. If he wants to hurt you, he'll do it in the simplest and most violent way. Besides, he's in the dark while you're in the light. You mustn't let him get what he wants!"

"Yeah. I know what to do."

Yale was Henry's son, and as people always said, an apple never fell far from its tree.

Besides, although his father was the eldest son of the Hamertons, he did not have any flair for business. In the old man's words, he was a baby in one's arms. Not only that, but he had caused a lot of problems by marrying another woman after getting his divorce, so the old man did not like him very much.

Therefore, Henry would be in big trouble whenever Matthew said something to his grandfather.

Marcus squinted and clenched his fists so tightly that veins were bulging.

"I knew that Henry and his son had been making a lot of money by putting a shell corporation on the market," he said, his gaze sharp. "But don't let anyone know about this first. If he dares to do something, we can use it as our tool against them!"

Zennie nodded. "Okay."

"When are you going back to Centrolis?"

"Well..." Zennie let out a mischievous smile and said, "I haven't even met with my sister-in-law yet, so how can I go back so soon?"

Marcus grimly said, "Zennie, I trust you know what you should say after you return, right?"

"Don't worry!" Zennie grinned.

Before coming here, she had heard from Josiah that Marcus doted on his wife unconditionally. The reason he kept his identity hidden was that he was afraid Cordelia could not accept it after she found out about his real identity.

Matthew had introduced a dozen pretty women to Zephyr in the past. They all were very talented and pretty, yet they failed to gain his favor.

None of them had expected Cordelia to win his heart so easily, and it made Zennie even more interested in this woman.

Marcus looked at Josiah. "Oh yeah, Josiah, your family has a lot of business here, so are you familiar with the shop lots in Jangasas?"

Josiah was stunned for a moment before asking with a frown, "Yeah. Are you going to open a shop or something, Z?"

"I want you to help me look for a suitable shop lot. I want it with a ceiling-to-floor window, the courtyard must be planted with irises, and... it must not be very far from downtown."

The remaining three people opened their eyes in shock.

"Don't look at me like that." Marcus glanced at them. He rose to his feet and dusted his shirt while walking toward the door. As he walked, he said, "In any case, help me look for one. After you find one, let me know. I'll decide if I want it or not."

He walked out of the room, leaving the dumbfounded trio behind.

Marcus looked at his watch, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips. It was about time to pick up Cordelia from her work.

This was his daily routine for the past few days. He would show up at her office on time when she got off work. After that, they would go home by bus, go to the market together, cook dinner together, and catch up on the drama together.

It was the kind of life he had been dreaming of, but he felt rather unreal, like it would disappear at any time.

As he got down the stairs, his phone rang.

It was from Yelena.

"Marcus, we're having dinner together tonight, so why don't you come along.

"It's fine as well if you don't want to come, but I'm not sure where Cordelia's male colleagues will send her to. After all, she hasn't told anyone where she lives, so I hope you won't get angry at my sister if those people send her somewhere else."
