Married a Secret Billionaire

He let out a long breath. The one-hour-plus he had spent in the bathroom was wasted!

Carter heard Marcus tossing and turning. Since he was unable to sleep anytime soon, he sat up to chat with the latter.

“Bro, don’t you think I’m kind of useless? I keep getting bullied.”

Carter was kind and excelled in his studies. He was simply too innocent and had always had low esteem due to his family. He was scared the first time he saw Marcus, but when the latter called him to the balcony and patiently talked to him, even intending to avenge him, he suddenly thought this cold- and stern-looking man was actually dependable.

“You’re right, Marcus,” he said softly. “One should be independent and strong, men especially. I’m going to learn from you, so I can protect Cordelia and my family well in the future.”

Marcus kept his back against him without a word.

“Marcus, why aren’t you saying anything?” Carter took a closer look at him. “Are you not used to it because my sister isn’t beside you?”

Duh!

Marcus harrumphed inwardly but forced a “No” out of his lips.

“Oh, that’s good then.” Carter chortled. “I’m really sorry for disturbing you both tonight… I didn’t want to come to my cousin, but I was in a bad mood after getting beaten. I don’t know who else I could go to aside from her.

“You won’t blame me, right?”

“No.” Marcus squeezed his eyes shut and prayed that his brother-in-law would stop talking.

“Marcus.” Carter sniffed. “What did you apply? Why does it smell so good?”

Marcus did not respond.
