Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 317

It went quiet all of a sudden.

Cordelia’s eyes were cast down as she held her hands together and remained silent.

Janine and Xyla exchanged a look and smiled, leaving tactfully. The young couple needed some private space right now.

“Robert, take us around somewhere else,” instructed Janine.

Robert caught what she meant instantly and went to start the car. Only the ever-jolly Josiah stood rooted dumbly and stared at the two of them.

He grinned. “Z, sis-in-law, you don’t have to bring anything. I’ve set the place up for you. You can pack your bag and check in anytime!”

Cordelia looked up and met Zephyr’s deep gaze.

Zephyr grew a little nervous. “Cordelia, I won’t force you if you’re reluctant.”

Cordelia could not help chuckling inwardly. “I won’t force you”… Ever since she learned about his real identity, these four words seemed to have grown in his mouth!

She wondered if he knew that she sometimes quite wished that he would “force” her a little…

Sometimes, she thought of the old times when he was glued to her. He would not say polite things like “I won’t force you”. Her occasional fightback would cause him to pin her down with one big hand while his other hand got rid of whatever she wore…

People said that the body would give the most honest answer to whether one loved someone or not.

Cordelia’s heart skipped a beat. Her expression looked unnatural as her cheeks burned.

Zephyr could not guess what she was thinking and thought that this was her rejection, so he could not help feeling disappointed.

It seemed like this was a failure again.

“It’s fine.” He squeezed her hand and reluctantly said, “I’ll wait for you.”

Until when did he have to wait?

Zephyr winced. Cordelia caught the flash of dejection on his face.
