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.
“I… I don’t know where he heard it either.” She braced herself to keep lying. “He might have heard my friends call me that when we were in university, so he mimicked them…
“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.

The moment Cordelia entered the building, she felt their discriminating gazes and guessed that word had gotten around about Jesse being beaten up. It had to do with her anyway, so she was not shirking responsibility. If they did force her into a corner, though, she would not just give in!
“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—”
