Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 310

Cordelia and Nelly stood facing each other. As Cordelia looked at Nelly's quirked lips, she clenched her hands into fists.

"Ms. Jenner, don't you understand what I mean?" Nelly snickered. "I won't stop you from being together with Zephyr. Even when I marry him in the future, I'll ensure you're well taken care of. I won't get jealous, either!

"Heh, things like these are actually common in families like ours. I'll adapt to it slowly, and I believe that you'll get used to it too!"

Cordelia bit her lips and took in a deep breath. Nelly might as well just say "mistress".

Nelly's smile was vicious as she looked at Cordelia quietly. This woman overestimated herself and humiliated her by talking about exchanging rings the last time. She must not show her any mercy this time! "Yeah, Nelly's right!" A brilliant voice rang suddenly.

Nelly's eyes brightened up. She was all smiles and greeted sweetly, "Auntie!"

Just as she was going to run over, though, Janine moved to the side and refused her hug with a hand. Nelly's arms were already spread open, so it was awkward as they froze in the air.

She was alarmed when she saw Janine walking toward Cordelia and putting an arm over her shoulder.

"Nelly's right." Janine chuckled. "It's too common for men to have mistresses in families like ours. One isn't enough. They have to get three or four!"

"Auntie?" Nelly could not figure out what she was trying to say.

"But Nelly, don't worry." Janine looked at her. "My Zephyr isn't someone like this!"

Nelly thought that Janine was taking her side and could not help smiling shyly. However, she saw Janine look lovingly at Cordelia the next second and speak gently. "It's enough that he has Cordelia!" "What!?" Nelly was dumbstruck.

Cordelia felt a buzz in her ears as her mind went blank as well. 'Aunt Janine said... Zephyr? Her Zephyr?

'Is it Zephyr Hamerton? There could not be a second Zephyr here, could it!?

'How was this possible? Aunt Janine is Zephyr's... mother!?'

"Auntie, what do you mean?" Nelly was in disbelief.

Janine was smiling, but it was obvious that the smile was icy and mocking. It was totally unlike when she was smiling at Cordelia.

"Nelly, what's gotten into you, child? You can't understand words now?"

"Auntie "

"I think you were right." Janine had long had an opinion about Nelly and took the chance to clap back at her. "You really shouldn't stop Cordelia from being together with Zephyr, nor should you be jealous. "When they get married, I'll ensure you're well taken care of as their mother-in-law. Our Zephyr doesn't like all such messes, but if you insist on being his mistress, it's not like it's impossible. "But 'families like ours' have a lot of rules, and you've got to follow them!" Janine grinned. "You have to kneel before Cordelia as part of the ceremony. It's the duty of a mistress to the lawful wife!" Janine patted Cordelia's hand and continued. "You can't be petty. As long as she kneels, serves you tea, and walks in from the back door, per ceremony, you have to accept her! What do you think?" Cordelia was stunned. She could not even wrap her head around the situation and stared back dumbly.

Nelly was appalled and pale, shaking with clattering teeth.

It was no wonder that even Liam Hamerton was wary of Janine. It was not just because the Baker Group was wealthy and lofty, but it was also because of the woman's sharp tongue and powerful presence. People were looking over and whispering with piqued interest.

Nelly was unwilling to become the joke and stomped her foot, glaring at Cordelia, before she left.

Cordelia took a moment to recover. "Aunt Janine, you... You're..."

"What is it?" Her reaction amused Janine. "I only left for a bit, and you don't recognize me anymore?

"Right, I got you the person. It's my son, Zephyr Hamerton!

"Zephyr, come over!" Janine turned around to call for him.

Zephyr's expression actually mirrored Cordelia's-they stared at Janine in shock and then looked at each other in astonishment.

As Janine watched them, she thought that they looked really matching!

"Don't keep standing like this! Get to know each other!"

In spite of it, even Robert was dumbfounded.

Janine finally felt something was wrong and looked at Cordelia and Zephyr. She finally tossed the question to Robert.

"What's up with the two of them?"

Robert let out a peal of laughter. "Madam Baker, when did you get acquainted with Ms. Jenner?"

"Ms. Jenner?"

"Yes!" Robert chuckled wryly. "The person Mr. Zephyr wants you to meet tonight is Ms. Cordelia Jenner!"

"C-Cordelia Jenner?"

'My princess is a Jenner?'

"Then who did I run into at Yale's!?""

"Madam Baker, that's Yelena Jenner, Ms. Cordelia Jenner's sister by name... Ms. Jenner isn't William Jenner's daughter, in fact!"

This time, it was Janine's turn to widen her eyes.

The woman his son was dead set on marrying was the same person as the daughter-in-law she was determined to have! She did not even have to introduce them, and her son had long won her daughter-in- law over!

'Ah...'

She had made a blunder and was actually the clown.

Happiness surged within Janine like a tidal wave, like a strike of thunder, like an explosion of lava! She kind of malfunctioned because of it and slapped Zephyr, who was grinning.

"You brat! Why didn't you tell me that the person you like is Cordelia? You made me so angry at me these days for nothing!"

"Mom, how is this my fault!?"
