Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 558

Zephyr did not say anything. He had wanted to shoulder this alone, but when he thought about how he had almost lost her because he had said nothing, he decided he was not going to be a fool twice.

He smiled and hugged her lightly. “I was informed that William Jenner’s currently in Centrolis.”

The person in his arms clearly went stiff. Zephyr hugged her tighter.

“Jenner’s company has gone bankrupt, and Yelena has become Yale’s plaything…” he explained to her. “William Jenner’s in desperate need of money. It’s well within reason that he’s in Centrolis to rely on his daughter.”

“He isn’t just depending on his daughter.” Cordelia’s voice was calm. “I don’t think he’ll let me go.”

Zephyr ran his hand through her long hair. He could not help smiling as he looked at her soft but resolute face.

He remembered that he had assumed she must have a soft and weak character when they had first met, but she had turned out to be much tougher than he had imagined.

“But don’t worry, I have people set around mom’s place. I won’t let William Jenner get close to her!”

Cordelia looked up at him with a sweet smile. No matter what, he would always make sure things were properly taken care of.

“Why are you looking at me like this?” Zephyr smiled.

Cordelia replied sincerely, “Thank you, darling…”

Cordelia chortled and said nothing, feeling warmth gush in her.

“If you really want to thank me…” Zephyr said huskily next to her ear, “Give me more allowance from now on!”

Cordelia blushed, her wrist caught when she tried to push him away. The man pinned her down on the couch.

It was a winter morning, but the room was radiant from hot passion.
