Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 519

“Why didn’t you call me when you got here so I could pick you up?”

The man’s voice was husky and gentle, but it tugged at the jealousy burning in her.

“Zephyr, I wouldn’t dare call you,” Cordelia replied softly. “Your woman’s stopping me here!”

Zephyr scowled at once, his icy gaze gleaming viciously.

Michelle was dumbfounded. What was going on?

Zephyr had clearly said that he did not like other women approaching him, so what was up with this woman whom he was hugging like a gem?

Michelle’s heart drummed. She sucked in a cold breath. “Zephyr, this—”

“Oh, Michelle, what’s that?” The female celebrities instigated, “Is Mr. Hamerton’s name for you to call?”

“You all—”

“Michelle, how could you talk to Ms. Jenner like this? And to stop her from coming in? Gosh, are you going to replace her as Mrs. Hamerton next?”

Cordelia suppressed her urge to smile, pushing down all that upward ticking of her lips.

As expected of the artists she personally guided… Their swift change of acting skills was proof that the expensive acting classes she had signed them up for had not gone to waste.

Zephyr frowned with a murderous gaze.

Cordelia laced their fingers together lightly and added the last kill. “Never mind, Zephyr. Ms. Carmichael mustn’t mean it. I can understand your past. That’s your youth, after all.”

“What are you talking about?” Zephyr’s eyes bulged.

“I mean…” Cordelia probed. “Isn’t Ms. Carmichael the person you met when you were 16?”

“No!” Zephyr answered without even thinking about it.

“But there’s only one person to be my wife.” He turned to Cordelia and smiled. “It’s Cordelia Jenner in this lifetime, next lifetime, and every lifetime after that!”

The hall was quiet for over ten seconds before applause and cheers erupted.

Josiah wheeled Kelly through the crowd to come to them with a congratulatory smile.

Cordelia’s eyes were red, and her tears fell despite her. She then had a stupid grin on.

Zephyr took her into his arms and stroked her back.

“Don’t be like this…” Cordelia gave him a punch and said, “The Tanners are hosting today, and we’re hogging the limelight!”

“Can’t help it.” Zephyr smiled softly. “There’s something more attention-grabbing that I have to do here!”

“What is it?” Cordelia was stunned.
