Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 484

For the sake of the rest of his life, Zephyr must not let Cordelia learn acupuncture from Rowan, no matter what!

He began to divert the topic. “Honey, you were amazing today!”

“What?”

“What you told my uncle. That felt so good!”

Cordelia smiled. It was because Matthew was too much and was hurling accusations recklessly!

After a few interactions, she actually found Henry unproblematic aside from being relatively honest and timid. No one said that honest people should be bullied. She could not stand it.

In addition, she stepped up because it did feel powerless when Kate was defending them alone.

“It’s my honor to have seen my wife’s cool side again today!”

“And you sound like you’ve eaten honey today.” Cordelia glanced at Zephyr with a smile.

Zephyr rested his head on her shoulder and held her arm with both hands.

“Honey, you saw it too… We have so many snakes at home. It’s really hard for me to survive! You’ve got to protect me well!”

Cordelia really could not stand it anymore and shoved Zephyr away, only for the latter to pull her back.

“Zephyr!” she cried. “Looks like you want your wife to take care of you again?”

The man nodded like a pecking chicken. “Have you forgotten that I need lots of love and care?”

“Well, that’s true!”

Zephyr’s eyes lit up, and he pinned Cordelia down on the couch with a smirk.

…

Before Cordelia left the house the next day, it took her a long time in the closet to find a turtleneck top to cover the marks on her neck.

Zephyr was already waiting in the car, but he was not quite happy.

Cordelia had put Ginger in the car too!

Zephyr barely smiled during the drive. He glanced at the fat tabby cat next to him and glared at it from time to time. Finally, he failed to hold it in and asked Cordelia, “Why are you taking it along when we’re visiting mom?”

“My mom will like it too!” Cordelia pouted. “I’m busy with work and rarely go back. Carter’s staying in his university dorm. My mom’s lonely at home!

“Besides, Ginger needs some fresh air outside too. It’s not good to keep it just in our house!”

“But…”

But he could not stick to her when the cat was between them! Cordelia also kept petting the cat and not him!

Robert could not help chuckling when he spotted his boss’ glower from the rearview mirror as he drove.

Zephyr did not want a son or a daughter, yet Cordelia’s attention was still easily stolen away by a cat. He glared at Ginger begrudgingly…

Ginger wondered if the man would throw it away one day.

As the couple arrived at the seafront condominium, Xyla was delighted when she saw Ginger and carried it in her arms.

“Is this really a stray?” she asked several times. “But the luster of its fur and the pattern… It really isn’t like a regular stray!”

“Maybe it’s a purebred.” Cordelia smiled. She was clueless about these, but her mother looked like she knew everything.

What Cordelia did not know was that back at the Irwins, they had never lacked purebred animals. She also did not know that her mother was basically like the princess in Princess and the Pea. Even with layers of mattresses, she could still easily notice the tiny pea underneath them.

Some nobility and extravagance were innate—they flowed in the blood.
