Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 157

Cordelia subconsciously grabbed Zephyr’s arm and shot him a timid glance.

Zephyr looked indifferent as he stepped forward and said with a deep voice, “We don’t have enough ingredients today and can’t serve so many people. You can come again tomorrow if you want coffee, Mr. Thompson.”

“Dessert’s fine too if there’s no coffee!” Nicholas grabbed a cookie seeing there were some on the table.

However, Zephyr kept the tray a step earlier and looked at him fiercely.

Nicholas paused before he tried to catch Zephyr’s hand with an aggressive and hostile gaze.

Zephyr was on his guard. With a tilt of his body, he pinned Nicholas’ wrist instead! Both of them were caught in a stalemate, and the atmosphere felt tense.

The men in black around them were ready to strike as well.

Cordelia felt cold beads of sweat trickle down her back.

Nicholas launched a punch, which Zephyr caught. His expression was icy and cool, the sense of pressure surprising Nicholas.

Zephyr emphasized each word. “Mr. Thompson, you can come to my boxing club if you want to train. I can spar with you. But it’s my wife’s cafe opening today. You’d best not seek trouble. Otherwise, your men might not rival me!”

Nicholas frowned, his gaze suddenly dropping on the back of Zephyr’s hand.

A patch of skin on the back of Marcus’ hand was burned, but the back of this man’s hand was clean without a trace of being injured!

Nicholas bit his lips and slowly straightened up with his hands on his side.

Cordelia ran to Zephyr and looked at Nicholas warily.

“It must feel great to have a loving wife!” Nicholas sounded sarcastic. “Mrs. Grist, anyone’s better than this guy here with your looks! I have plenty of young and promising men under me too. I could introduce them to you.”
