Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 40
Cordelia looked up at the man who stood by the side and smiled at him.
Marcus let her know he was going out. Like usual, he did not tell her who he was out with or what time he would be home, just that she did not have to wait up for him to eat if it got too late.
Cordelia sighed while looking at his back.
“This doesn’t sound right.” Linda looked at her with a smile. “Our Cordelia looks like she’s troubled?”
Cordelia bit her lips and spilled all about the man’s supposed first love.
Linda could not help laughing after listening to her.
“That’s it? Cordelia, you’re putting yourself through so much suffering over a mere imaginary rival? You’re hilarious!”
“I know it’s like I’m making it up. There’s no proof of it. It’s kind of ridiculous that I’m thinking like this.” Cordelia sat on the couch, hugging her legs, and rested her face in her hands. Her eyes were big and lost. “But I just can’t control myself.”

“Okay, so even if he does have a first love, that’s old history. He married you in the end, didn’t he? What are you worried about?
“Besides…” Linda pursed her lips and said, “A man like him has no family background, no job, and a mark on his record. Who do you think wants to fight for him with you? You’re the only one treasuring him!”
“What are you talking about!?” Cordelia glared at her without heat and chortled.
She did feel better after talking to Linda. Even her stomach hurt less.
It was then the pot on the stove gurgled. The herbal soup nearly bubbled over.
Linda darted to open the lid, but her gaze changed when she saw the soup’s ingredients.
