Married a Secret Billionaire

Cordelia wore a cream-yellow dress with thin strapped heels. Each smile and movement was captivatingly gorgeous. Marcus, who was next to her, was tall and straight. His presence was barely ignorable. He was wearing the suit they picked out at the boutique the other day.

“Hey, he’s so handsome!” someone commented softly. “Didn’t people say Cordelia got married to a thug who only knows how to fight? Have you met such a handsome thug?”

“When they stand together, those who didn’t know better would’ve thought some CEO that’s attending the event with his wife!”

Yelena gripped her champagne flute tighter as the corner of her lips twitched.

Cordelia stayed beside Marcus with a warm and pure smile. The limelight of the event was basically focused on them. She was a little nervous, but because she was holding Marcus’ hand, the warmth of his palm calmed her down, and she was at ease among the guests.

“See, I’m not wrong to have brought you here!” Cordelia said with a soft chuckle, “My coworkers are all complimenting you!”

Marcus looked at her with a smile.

“I might not be able to keep you company later.” She was apologetic and pointed to show him. “Over there, Ms. Cloud from the Morn-Glo Group, the one who was allergic to peanuts the other time… There, Mr. Oliver Jones from the Star Group. They’re all my clients. I have to go greet them. Can you stay here and have something on your own?”

“Mm, I can…” Marcus teased her on purpose, “But you’ve seen your female coworkers who called me handsome just now. They’re staring at me like starved wolves. Aren’t you worried about leaving me alone here?”

“You—” Cordelia glared at him.

Marcus grinned and swiped at her nose before pressing a kiss on her forehead.

“Go ahead with your socializing. I’ll wait for you here, with absolute obedience to morals!”
