Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 565

Cordelia paused and said flatly, “Nothing.”

Rowan thought it was strange. He wanted to ask more but dared not. He could only secretly look at his daughter.

However, she seemed like she was really okay.

He pursed his lips and chuckled. “Oh, that’s great… It’s noon, so why don’t I take you guys to lunch? Then I can talk more with Carter. Hehe…

“What would you guys like to eat?” He looked at Cordelia in a fawning manner. “You’ll pick, Cordelia!”

“No.” Cordelia paused and lifted her eyes to look at him. “I’m going to look for Zephyr. He left home early in the morning. I haven’t seen him today.”

“What?” Rowan’s expression changed. “Did he not return home?”

“No,” Cordelia said softly. “He just left early.”

“Ah, I’m sure he wouldn’t dare not to come home!” Rowan was confident. “Cordelia, tell me if he doesn’t come home. I’ll…”

Cordelia stared into his eyes, and her voice was soft as each word struck his heart like a stone. “Mr. Irwin, aren’t you being a little too nosy?”

Rowan was stumped. He stared blankly at her, unable to utter a word.

That was right. What right did he have to pry? Who was he to do that?

To Cordelia, he was just the president of a medical association from Southeast Aciatic. He was just a partner in the joint hospital project.

Even though they had a close relationship, he was just the boyfriend that she wanted to introduce to her mother.

He was just an uncle that she did not hate.

That was it.

Rowan’s eyes dimmed, and his heart hurt, but he showed a submissive smile to Cordelia.

Carter shook her and signaled her. “What are you doing, sis? Why are you talking to Uncle Irwin like that?”

“If he were our dad, it would make sense that we could tell him the troubles that we’re going through. He could claim justice for us…” Her voice was shaky. “But is he our dad?”

Nobody dared to breathe loudly. They lowered their heads, pretending to do something else.

He carried the burden of the many obstacles from their investment proposals.

Now that they kept getting good news that each project’s net profit exceeded $150,000,000, the Hamerton Group was again standing on top of the industry.

Liam was right. In the aspect of bringing money to the Hamerton Group, nobody dared to say that they were No. 1 if Zephyr called himself No. 2.

Zephyr scoffed, “Uncles, do you still think my judgment is bad?”

“No, of course not…”

“What about being young and dumb?”

Being Matthew’s trusted aides and with their experience, the few old men were used to going against Zephyr in the meetings.

They were shocked by his majestic charisma now. They were drenched in a cold sweat as they smiled awkwardly.
