Married a Secret Billionaire

There was no difference in how Zephyr acted and looked in the consecutive days without Fredric’s news, but Cordelia knew the turmoil he was in. She did not know how to comfort him. The man wanted to be strong so much that he had never brought along any negative emotions to her. He was always the gentle and smiling husband before her. It was just that Cordelia’s heart ached every time she saw him smile. She could see the fatigue in his smile. Neil called Cordelia to tell her he would return to Southeast Aciatic for a holiday and visit her parents. Cordelia’s response was lukewarm and distracted. “What’s gotten into you?” Neil chuckled. “You sound listless. You don’t have prenatal depression, do you?” “Nonsense!” Cordelia then told him about everything that had transpired these few days. Neil was quiet for a moment before he answered softly, “I’ll come to Chaiseland tomorrow.” Cordelia was shocked. “For Trinity? I think you better not. She’s—” “It’s exactly because of this circumstance that I have to be by her side!” Neil was determined. “But—” “But I should be gloating?” He chuckled. “Cousin, don’t underestimate me. I don’t like Constable, but his life is at stake. I think I should still do what I can.” “How?” Cordelia was stunned. “I’ll bring a few men over. They’ve gone through strict military training in Southeast Aciatic and have very advanced equipment. Looking for someone will be easy for them! “I’ll bring some meds over too.” Neil added softly, “He’s stabbed. There might be side effects if he hasn’t received proper treatment. The Irwins’ medicines are great, you know?” Cordelia was moved and at a loss for words. “No need to say more!” Neil chuckled brightly. “It’s not like I’m doing this for him!” It was not for Fredric but for Trinity. Neil was going to help Trinity through this. He knew that she would not be able to live with herself if anything happened to Fredric. Even if she had let go of Fredric, he was someone she used to like. Neil could understand and tolerate it. Actually, he was like Trinity sometimes. Once they set their minds on something, they would not let it go easily. … “Hey, don’t fall asleep. Don’t sleep! “Fredric, are you okay? Talk to me. Stop being groggy! “Just the year before last year, a lady in the basement next door was stabbed too. She went to sleep when she came back and never woke up again…” Fredric’s eyes were heavy, but he was quite conscious. It was simply because his wound hurt too badly. The excruciating pain kept him from falling asleep. The antipyretic had probably worked too as he was soaked in sweat and his temperature slowly dropped. He opened his eyes sometime later and saw Aurelia lying on the floor, curled up. He made some noise, and Aurelia straightened up abruptly to feel his head. “Oh, goodness, thank goodness!” She wore a relieved smile. “You’re not burning anymore! “I don’t have to buy you antipyretic from tomorrow onward!” “You…” Fredric chuckled dryly. “You’re happy because you get to save.”

me, I can’t help it. But I won’t send you to the hospital or help you call the police! To be honest, I’m not sure if you can recover either. I’ll do my best to take care of you. But whether you survive or not depends on the heavens. I can’t do anything!” “Aurelia, you—” “Alright, I’ll get changed to go out now!” Aurelia looked at him. “Can you close your eyes?” Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates… The room was too small, and she usually lived alone, so she could change without care. Now that there was a man and no place to put up a curtain, she could only hope for the man to be self-aware of things like this. Fredric looked up and met Aurelia’s clear eyes, seeing that her hands were already holding the hem of her T-shirt. He pressed his lips together and closed his eyes obediently. When he opened them later, he was amazed by what Aurelia looked like. She had changed into a long maxi dress
