Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1983

"But Greta…" Persephone asked tearfully, "Why can't you speak anymore?"

She didn't dare imagine what Greta had gone through all these years. The world-weariness in Greta's eyes made her seem so different from the innocent girl she once knew.

Greta shook her head at Persephone, caressing her face and wiping away her tears.

Greta: [You'll be okay. As long as I'm here, I won't let anything bad happen to you.]

Persephone felt a sharp ache in her heart.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door, making her alert.

However, the person who entered was the one she had yearned for so much...

Persephone froze as she saw the smile that usually appeared in her dreams right before her.

"Morpheus..."

Morpheus didn't say anything. He just rushed over and hugged her tightly.

"Are you assured now?" Morpheus held her hand, smiling. "I'll make sure to safely escort you back home. This time, I'll accompany you home."

When Persephone returned to the apartment, it was already completely dark outside.

Seamus sat in the smoky living room that was filled with a strong scent of nicotine.

Persephone wrinkled her brows, a look of disgust briefly crossing her face.

The other two bodyguards were scolded by Seamus, standing against the wall, afraid to speak or move.

After Persephone and Catherine finished shopping, they lost her again when she turned into a certain alley.

Then, they returned and had been standing in the corner the whole time.

Seamus took a deep breath, his eyes betraying his suppressed rage. However, Persephone looked calm, and he didn't have any concrete evidence.

"Alright," he said softly. "It's late. I don't feel like eating anything now. Keep the asparagus for tomorrow. I'll cook for you.

"Miss, get some rest."

"Seamus," Persephone called him softly.

He paused but didn't turn back. His figure in the dim light seemed somewhat eerie.

Persephone watched him, asking as if talking to herself, "Don't you have anything you want to tell me about the past?"
