Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 269

Zephyr looked at the string of digits. It was from the University of Centrolis, but it started with 02. If he remembered correctly, it was the hotline of the university’s board of trustees.

1/3 of the university board consisted of people related to the Tanners.

The corner of Zephyr’s lips quivered as realization dawned on him shortly.

“What’s the matter?” Cordelia looked at him in worry. “Is there something wrong with the number?”

“It’s fine. Hold on.”

Zephyr went to the balcony.

Cordelia looked at his back from the living room in a daze. The man made several calls and lowered his voice. He spoke unhurriedly in a composed manner.

‘This is what it is like to be a king…’

Cordelia jolted and looked down, feeling her cheeks heat up.

“Carter asked softly, “Sis, do you think Zephyr really has a way?”

“Mm, I think so.” Her voice was so low it was barely audible.

“Oh…” Carter nodded and suddenly sighed. “Cordelia, I’m lucky my brother-in-law’s Zephyr Hamerton and not Marcus Grist. Sigh, it’s better to have a powerful brother-in-law!”

Cordelia looked at him in silence.

When Zephyr came back from the balcony, he wore a relaxed smile.

“I’ve basically sorted this out. I’ll go to the school board in another two days.” He looked at Carter and patted his shoulder. “Stay home these two days, like a short break.”

“Okay!” Carter grinned, his heart falling back into its place.

Cordelia was quite surprised. He had resolved something so huge instantly? It would not be good for Carter if Zephyr had pressured the school using his status. After all, the one who stood out would be targeted. She also hoped that Carter could study and focus in peace.
