Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 190

Soon, Cordelia came back from buying the supplies and smiled when she saw Linda taking good care of Nicholas. She talked to the girl for a bit and left with Zephyr.

On the way home, she chit-chatted nonstop like a little pigeon, feeling a weight was lifted off her shoulders. Although Linda did not end up together with Seth as she had expected, she would support her as long as she made her choice!

Cordelia said with a sweet smile, “Darling, I think you and Nicholas will keep meeting in the future. You both should let bygones be bygones and try getting along!”

“Mm.” There were no bygones in truth.

Zephyr looked at her with a complicated gaze and suddenly stopped walking. She looked like she was in a great mood now, so she would most probably be able to accept it if he broke the news… Where should he start, though?

Zephyr took a deep breath and met Cordelia’s clear eyes.

“Darling, what’s wrong?”

Zephyr hesitated and slowly said, “I have something to tell you.”

Cordelia was beaming as she intertwined their fingers. “What a coincidence. Me too!”

“Hmm?” He looked at her. “What is it?”

“I did a check at Seth’s…”

Zephyr was startled. “What’s wrong? Where do you feel ill?”

Cordelia blushed and smiled, ducking her head. She told him very softly, “I… I haven’t gotten my period this month.”

Zephyr froze. He dared not believe his ears. His lips moved, but he could not make a sound.

“W-What did you say?” he asked shakily after a moment. “You mean… you’re pregnant!?”

“I don’t know yet.” Cordelia grinned at him. “The results aren’t out yet. We need to wait.”

Zephyr forgot all about what he wanted to say. Tidal waves of happiness washed over him to the point his mind went blank, and he picked the girl up to hug her.

“Honey, put me down!”

Cordelia was overjoyed as well, but they were outside where the passersby were watching!

Zephyr seemed like a fool over the moon as he kept smiling at her. After Cordelia repeatedly asked to be put down, he forced himself to obey. Once he put her down, he crouched down and stroked her flat belly. He even put his ear against it.

“Darling, I think I hear the baby calling me daddy!”

Cordelia laughed.

“Is it a boy or a girl?”

“Didn’t I say that the results aren’t out yet? We don’t even know if there’s a baby in there!”

“There sure is! Absolutely!”

Cordelia was rendered speechless.

“Darling, how many do you think there are?”

Cordelia forced a giggle back. “Isn’t one enough?”

“He’s going to be a father. What’s abnormal about reading up on childcare?”

“No, but… the results aren’t out yet! Why is he so thrilled?”

“It’s pretty much confirmed, though.” Frederic smiled. “Just get your gift prepared!”

“I’m a little worried.” Josiah rubbed his chin. “If Z just takes Cordelia and their child back, the Hamertons will definitely go crazy, huh?”

Frederic’s gaze dimmed.

“I’ll take Cordelia back.” Zephyr, who had been quiet, spoke suddenly. “She’s my wife whether they accept it or not.”

Josiah chuckled wryly.

A certain someone seemed to have said that he would have nothing to do with a Ms. Cordelia Jenner in the past, that they were people of two different worlds and would not blend in…

“What are you laughing at?” Zephyr gave Josiah a look, and the latter behaved at once.

“The priority isn't the Hamertons right now. It’s Marcus Grist.” Zephyr’s aloof gaze was tinged with ferocity. “He’s still alive, and Yale has him.

“I need to change the name on the marriage certificate to mine before they do anything!”

That was the only way to protect Cordelia and their child.

“Z, are you sure you want to do that?” Frederic was a little worried. “Your grandfather will blow up if you get married recklessly. When your uncle adds gas to the fire—”

“If I give up on Cordelia because I’m scared of grandpa blowing up on me…” Zephyr replied with a determined gaze, “I don’t deserve her!”
