Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 678

Cordelia stayed quiet.

Her mother’s shoulders were frail, but she was immensely assured as she rested on them. Her mother’s fragrant scent had also soothed her tense nerves and gradually calmed her down.

Xyla said softly, “Cordelia, both of us are actually very lucky. I met your father and you met Zephyr.”

Cordelia smiled.

Yeah, they were both men who were sincerely good to them.

“So, what inferiority do you have before him?” Xyla looked into her eyes. “Someone who truly loves you won’t despise you over a tiny flaw. Their heart will ache for you instead.”

“But…” Cordelia pressed her lips together. “I came across many posts that said that their husbands were cold to them and wouldn’t even look at them, some not returning home for the night, ever since they had babies and stretch marks.

“Mom, maybe these small and petty details in life will really grind away the love.”

Xyla was amused and huffy as she poked Cordelia’s head.

“And where did you see these things from? There are men like that, but I can guarantee that Zephyr won’t be one of them!

“Cordelia, love won’t ever fade. It’ll only become stronger with time. Just like your diamond ring, it’s the toughest thing in the world, and it shines and sparkles forever.”

“Mom…”

“There’s no need to hide before the one you love.” Xyla patted her head. “Be yourself and welcome the new life that belongs to the both of you. This is more important than everything else!”

…

Xyla had just spent two days in Melorian, yet Rowan kept calling nonstop. Cordelia was exasperated because of him.

“Dad, mom’s here to keep me company. Are you scared that she’ll be abducted?”

“Good girl, your mom wouldn’t be taken away so easily!” Rowan coughed and lowered his voice. “Unless that Witch Janine is instigating again—”

Before he could finish, a sonorous voice echoed. “Rowan Irwin, what did you say!?”

Rowan nearly dropped his phone.

“Cordelia, what’s going on? Y-You have me on speaker?”
