Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1352

"What were you swearing about?" Cordelia asked while glancing subconsciously at Renee. The latter stood by, clutching her clothes and appearing quite nervous.

Cordelia was not sure if what she was doing was right or if she had frightened Renee.

Perhaps that was just the display of affection from young lovers. After all, she had been young once, and Zephyr had also made all sorts of promises when they were deeply in love.

It was just that... swearing and making promises was something done willingly, not something forced upon someone.

Cordelia furrowed her brow. Maybe she was overthinking this, but she did not want to give anyone a chance to harm her son!

"Toph, an oath is a sacred thing. If you make reckless oaths, God will hear you. Don't think He won't punish you!"

"Mom!" Toph laughed heartily. "Who said I was making reckless oaths? When I swear, it's with a sincere and solemn attitude!"

"You..." Cordelia glared at him.

Why was her second son so unruly? If it were Zuko, she would not even need to intervene as he would handle it himself!

On second thought, there was no way Pammy would ever force Zuko to make an oath like that.

Cordelia looked at Renee again. Upon recalling the things Linda had said, her heart pounded anxiously.

"You silly child." Cordelia forced a smile. "My point is, wouldn't it be better to save these words for the wedding?"

"Well, yeah!" Toph nodded. "You're right!"

The mother and son exchanged smiles.

In Renee's eyes, the scene felt like a thorn piercing her heart. The pain was not intense, but it lingered uncomfortably.
