Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 823

"Nothing." He shook his head. "Go in."

Cordelia nodded and was going to walk away when she caught Alexander's gaze toward her house. It was like he was looking for something…

She suddenly had an odd feeling.

Alexander was nice to her and protected her where he could, but her sixth sense as a woman told her it was not romantic.

Linda treated her like that, Trinity treated her like that, Zennie treated her like that, and Aurelia treated her like that… but Alexander was a man!

Cordelia's heart dropped. She sneaked a glimpse at Alexander and forced a smile before she hurried home.

Once she entered, she saw Zephyr serving dinner from the kitchen. When he saw her, he was still wearing an apron and smiled like he was fishing for compliments. "Welcome home, darling! Wash your hands, and let's eat."

Cordelia was astonished, looking at the table of dishes.

"You made all these?"

There was grilled steak, stuffed mushrooms, fried shrimp, baked potatoes… Zephyr even brought over two plates and plated steaming omelets that looked drool-worthy.

Cordelia had spent the whole afternoon with the queen, which meant she had been acting as a poised lady the whole afternoon. She dared not relax, afraid that she would break etiquette, and did not even have any cake.

Looking at the dishes on the table, she was suddenly famished, and her eyes sparkled.

"Honey, you're amazing!"

She clung to Zephyr like an octopus and pressed a loud smooch on his cheek.

Zephyr enjoyed it a lot, smiling and gesturing for the butler behind him to throw the takeout containers hidden behind the kitchen door when he left. The butler held back his laugh and did as he was told.

Zephyr had spent the whole afternoon only learning the nanny's omelet but still managed to blow up the kitchen.

"Alright." He stroked Cordelia's head affectionately. "Zuko's asleep now. Eat up!"
