Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 283

Cordelia found a comfortable couch and planned to rest for a bit, only to see someone sitting at a nearby table and playing cards in concentration. She focused and saw that it was actually… Neil? Why was he here!?

While she was dazed, Neil spotted her as well and smiled at her. He then got up, approached her, and sat down next to her directly.

“Hi!” Cordelia sat up straight, looking a little nervous.

There was a nice fragrance on Neil. Coupled with his gorgeous features, it accentuated his grace.

“Hello,” Neil greeted with a smile. “I didn’t expect to meet you here. Are you here for interviews today too?”

“Mm.” Cordelia nodded.

The conversation stopped. Neil smiled and shifted his attention back to the cards, resuming to play on the coffee table in front of them.

Cordelia could not help the surprise when she saw the pattern on the back of the deck.

“You… know how to play this?”

“Why? Do you know how to as well?” Neil looked at her.

“This is Xiroh, right?” Cordelia smiled. “I don’t know how, but my mom does!”

Neil paused with a subtle change of expression.

“My mom’s amazing in this card game. No one can win against her! But I’ve seen her playing with others…”

“One can play Xiroh alone or with multiple players.” Neil’s interest was piqued. “Your mom actually knows how to play. Where is she from?”

Cordelia froze. She seemed not to know where her mother’s hometown was all this while.
