Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1122

Zuko was about to reveal the truth when a knock on the door interrupted them. The butler entered with Jesse and Melissa, wearing a smile as he explained, "Mr. and Mrs. Jenner got lost in the garden. We guided them to the guest room, but they insisted on seeing you."

Zephyr and Cordelia exchanged polite smiles and gestured for Zuko to leave first.

Cordelia poured floral tea for everyone, noticing the perspiration on their foreheads and realizing they must have something important to discuss.

"Please, speak your mind," she said with a gentle smile. "We're going to be family, no need to be too formal."

"In that case, I won't beat around the bush," Melissa said, taking out a photo. It showed the two of them holding a young Lina, taken on a ship with a dock in the background as they were about to buy snacks for her.

That act had saved them from their biggest disaster.

Cordelia's gaze changed as she saw the face of the little girl, her heart racing.

After Pamela disappeared, Linda would cry every day. She would even go out alone, dazed, holding Pamela's photo, asking anyone she came across if they had seen the girl. The photos Linda had of Pamela were only up until she was four years old. The appearance of Pamela at four years old matched the girl in the photo they were holding.

"Mr. and Mrs. Jenner, as residents of Centrolis, you must be aware of the shipwreck that happened 20 years ago, right?"

Cordelia glanced at Zephyr subconsciously, and he too had a deep gaze, his brows furrowing even more.

"This ship was called the Latitude... We met Lina on that ship. She was being carried by a man who seemed quite terrified and didn't appear to know how to care for a child. So, we took care of her all the way.
