Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 230

Robert was stunned. He had to discuss the group’s reform plan with the board of directors. How could he return to Jangasas at this critical time!?

“Sir, are you worried about Ms. Jenner?” Robert asked softly. “Don’t worry, my men have been watching. She’s safe.”

Zephyr could not help but growl, “Then why isn’t she picking up!?” He was anxious.

Robert did not know what to say to that.

In reality, there were many reasons why someone would not pick up their phone–her phone might be out of battery, she did not hear it, or there was no signal…

Furthermore, he was calling in the middle of the night and insisted that she would pick him up immediately. Did Ms. Jenner not need sleep? That was just…

Zephyr was unconvinced. He grabbed his car key and ran out.

Suddenly, his phone rang. He was stunned when he saw the screen, and his hand was shaking when he picked it up.

“Wifey…”

“I’m sorry, hubby!” Cordelia, who was on the other side of the phone, sounded like she had just woken up. “I had dinner with Zennie last night, and we drank some beer.

“You know how I am with alcohol. I got drunk after drinking just a little bit, so we passed out as soon as we got home. I didn’t hear my phone!

“Hah, she’s still sleeping!”

Zephyr stood leaning on the wall. The tension he was feeling was gone.

He gulped and only spoke a long time later. “Oh…”

Cordelia panicked to hear that. She asked in fear, “Are you mad, hubby?”

The man remained silent, but his eyes were red. He felt a lump in his throat. He took a deep breath and suddenly smiled. It felt like he was being released from a disaster and was smiling happily.

Robert who was standing aside came to a realization. He finally understood why Josiah always said that he looked crazy.

He did not only look crazy—he was crazy!

“Hubby? Hubby!” Cordelia started to panic. Was he really mad?

“I’m sorry, hubby.” The lady admitted her mistake coquettishly. “I won’t drink again without you with me. And… even when I’m sleeping, I’ll put my phone next to me. I promise to pick up my phone instantly!”

“Okay.”

She pouted and continued to fawn. “Also, I’ll reply to your messages immediately. I won’t let you wait!”

“Good.”
