Fredric was rendered speechless. Marcus was lecturing him. It seemed like he would really do anything for Cordelia.

Marcus proceeded to ask, “I wonder what’s important to William Jenner?”

Fredric thought about it before answering, “His pride.”

“If the people in his circle find out that he goes against the law, will he still have his pride?”

Fredric forced a smile so hard that his eyes and nose were squeezed together.

“What do you want, Z?”

Marcus raised his brow. “We won’t go to court if we get this old, cunning man to buy a house for Cordelia.”

“Are you saying you want him to buy a house to shut your mouth?”

Marcus laughed. “That’s right!”

Fredric suddenly felt his temples twitching.

“I’ll leave it to you.” Marcus patted his shoulder. “Remember, the house must be in a good location, have good ventilation, and be brightly lit. Most importantly, the deed must be in Cordelia’s name. Got it?”

Fredrick was efficient and a master negotiator, so he settled the matter quickly.

It felt like a dream when Cordelia received the deed. She flipped through it over and over again. She felt as if she was waking up from a dream when she heard William telling her about the house on the phone flatly.

Her heart was pounding. She asked Marcus to pinch her.

He hugged her while smiling, whispering, “Don’t worry. Your mom and brother have a roof above their heads now. I guess your dad came to his senses that he didn’t want Yelena to bully you guys.”

Cordelia was stunned.
