Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 316

Matthew’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Looks like it’s useless to you, whether it’s taking the subsidiary from you or dismissing you!” Liam looked at him coldly. “You don’t have to come to the company anymore, then! The projects you have are to be distributed to the Hamerton kids!”

“Zephyr, make arrangements for it. Those who take over must have a virtuous character. No more blunders!”

“Mm, I understand.” Zephyr smiled as he already had a plan in his mind.

He had a lot of peers in the family. His elder cousins were mature and steady people who were trustworthy.

“As for the western suburbs land…” Liam thought about it. “Zephyr, take full charge. Make sure nothing goes wrong.”

“Alright.”

Zephyr wore a small smile.

He managed to dismiss Matthew from work in the board meeting last time with a few words, and now, with the same brief words, he kicked the man out of the project.

It was like an obstacle removed for him, but the Tanners were still around.

Zephyr said with a low tone, “Grandpa, since Uncle Matthew isn’t involved now, then the Tanners…”

“The Tanners have been our best partners.” Liam looked at him.

“Zephyr, I understand what you’re thinking.” Liam’s gaze was cryptic. “I’m not forcing you to marry Nelly, but you can’t just stay fixed on Cordelia alone!”

“Grandpa—”

“Alright, I’m tired.” Liam waved his hand and got up with his cane. “I do not wish to talk about this further.

“Work well with Nelly.” He turned back and said at the door, “Maybe you’ll realize that a woman like Cordelia isn’t the best for you!”

…

During the weekend, Cordelia and Zephyr took their mothers out.

It was cool and breezy, and the sky was clear blue with cotton-like drifting clouds. The sun showered its warmth on the world, and the sea glittered. The scenery was beautiful.

They had wanted to go hiking but ultimately roamed around the city under the two mothers’ insistence.

The city area of Centrolis was large, but it did not feel like a trip. It felt more like they were shopping.

Cordelia gloomily rested her head against the car window, and Zephyr pulled her shoulder to let her lean against him upon noticing her slightly disappointed look.

“The window’s cold and hard. It’s not comfortable,” he said in a low voice.

Cordelia looked up at him with a smile.

Their mothers’ chatter and giggles came from the front.

“Let’s drop them off later, and I’ll take you somewhere!” Zephyr chortled next to Cordelia’s ear.

“No.” Cordelia shook her head. “We’re out today to spend time with them. What’s the meaning of it if we leave first?”

“But…”

“We’ve got to go all the way if we’re doing this,” Cordelia said seriously. “It’s nice to roam around with them. They might buy us something nice!”

“Something nice?” Zephyr asked with a chuckle, “Why didn’t I realize that you were a little money grubber in the past?”

“You’ll know in the future!” Cordelia’s eyes were beaming in crescents. “I’m also a miser! I think the cutest thing in this world is my money!”
