Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 30
“But who’s Lia? Aren’t you Yelena?”
“…”
Cordelia blanched, her legs nearly giving out and causing her to fall. Marcus kept an arm around her waist with a cryptic smile on his sculpted face. There was a sense of pressure mixed in his manliness that pulled at Cordelia’s conscience.
“Um…” She racked her mind to come up with something. “I am Yelena. Lia is my nickname.”
“Why’d that man know your nickname?”
Cordelia pressed her lips together as her ears reddened and heated up.

“He’s crazy anyway. What a pervert! You did a good job today, darling!” Cordelia flashed Marcus a timid grin. “I’ll make you barbecue ribs and pan-seared salmon tonight as a reward!”
Marcus smiled and stopped pushing the question. Instead, he pulled the girl into his arms and left the hotel with her.

“Cordelia, come here!” Her coworker, Annie Ambrose, called her over softly.
Cordelia paused and followed Annie to the corner of the hallway.
Annie was kind and bubbly and was usually the closest to her. Now that something had happened, she was the most concerned for her as well.
“Cordelia.” Annie looked troubled. “Did you hear what people say about you?”
“I know. Is it because Jesse got beaten up?” Cordelia asked directly. “But there was a cause. If the higher-ups want to investigate the case, I’ll—”
