Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 664

Ava broke out, wailing, and told Hannah everything.

Hannah frowned as she listened and scolded Ava for spoiling their plan.

“You foolish child! Why did you ask where Zephyr was out of the blue? She could guess right away that you have eyes for him! That’s his wife. How could she allow it?

“Besides, they’re married. You have no business in whatever workout they want to do behind closed doors.” Hannah paced back and forth, sighing heavily. “Even if Cordelia had a good impression of you previously, it’s gone with what you just said!”

Ava calmed down and thought that her mother made sense. She bit her lip and looked at Hannah tearfully, muttering in a soft voice, “Then… what should I do now?”

Hannah rolled her eyes.

“You’re asking me? Who am I supposed to ask!?”

“Mom, I don’t think that’s the case with Cordelia?” Ava was hopeful. “She was quite nice during the call and said that she sees me as her only friend and hopes I help her more!”

“Everyone can make pleasantries! That’s what she said, but can you guarantee that’s what she thinks too?”

“I…” Ava hung her head.

Hannah fretted. “Ava, we have to win this one back… Cordelia has Zephyr’s baby now. That’s the precious gem of both the Hamertons and Bakers! You mustn’t fight her at this time, understand?

“If something happens to her and you’re to be blamed, you won’t ever get out of it!”

Ava pouted, agreeing on the surface but was inwardly indignant.

She could not see how her mother was so cautious and timid. She only knew to go to Noah, cry whenever something happened, and have her mentally challenged husband to step up for her.

He was just a mentally challenged man. How capable could he be?

Janine had sole power in the Bakers, and Hannah and Ava had been oppressed by her all these years. There was now Cordelia too!

Ava could not swallow the pill even when her mother could.

“Hey, I’m talking to you. Did you hear me?” Hannah poked Ava’s head.

“I heard you, I heard you!” Ava forced a smile. “Mom, don’t worry, I’ll get along well with Cordelia.”
