Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 292

“Cordelia.” His fingers ran across her fair face. “You’re magical.”

“But this magic might be useless in front of your mom.”

“I’ll take care of this.” He hugged her lightly. “Just do what you feel like doing.”

Zephyr smiled. She had no idea that she was already the boss of two listed companies and the person in charge of Centrolis’ western suburb land project or how many assets she had under the name.

It was good that she did not know, so these things would not become the shackles that stopped her from soaring.

When she got tired of exploring, though, these things would be her strongest shield and support—enough to shut up every Hamerton.

“Oh!” Cordelia suddenly recalled something. “I can’t have lunch with you. I’ve got to go to an exhibition in the afternoon and write an article!”

“What exhibition?”

“Art exhibition where plenty of artists are involved. It’s held in the city center, and some of these artists are from Mengasas and Southeast Aciatic!”

“Oh.” Zephyr nodded and reluctantly let her go.

“I have to go now.” Cordelia grinned at him. “Eat properly. Don’t get gastritis again!”

This reminded Zephyr… Why did he not pretend to have one just now!?

Cordelia hurried away from Splendor Dynasty. Janine had just gotten to the building with her car parked outside.

Clark smiled. “Madam Baker, I asked about it just now. Mr. Zephyr’s at the top floor.”

“Forget it.” Janine had other plans. “He might be socializing. I’ll go around here and talk to him when I return at night.”

“Alright.” Clark thought about it and said, “There’s an art exhibition at the city center today. Do you want to…”

“Hmm, yes!” Janine had always been interested in art. “We’ll go there!”

Zephyr was in a private booth on the top floor of Splendor Dynasty. He found it odd hearing what Kate had to say.

Placing the caviar he had in his hand down, he said with a slight frown, “I didn’t set up an appointment for them to meet.”

“Then what’s the matter with her?”

Zephyr was quiet for a moment. His expression was aloof and burdened after he ended the call.

Josiah and Fredric, who were next to him, exchanged a look and put down their cutlery.
