Married a Secret Billionaire

Zephyr and Cordelia rushed to the hospital as soon as they received the news. Numerous people were gathered outside the operation ward. Trinity sat on the bench with an anxious look, the lucky charm clutched in her hand. Cordelia patted Zephyr’s back, softly coaxing him that everything would turn out fine. The bodyguards from Southeast Aciatic guarded each exit of the floor with a straight face. Forget a living person, even a fly would find it hard to leave. Aurelia stood as close to the wall as possible as she timidly scanned the group of people before her. Her metal box stayed close to her. These people looked rich and powerful with high status. Fredric was their friend… What would they do to her then? Aurelia dared not think about it. She felt chills running down her and hugged her metal box tighter. All her money was in the box. She had wanted to send Fredric to the hospital with it, but it did not seem needed now. What was currently happening could no longer be resolved with money… The light above the door went out, and the doctor came out, pulling his sweaty mask off. Trinity darted over. “How is he?” “The patient’s doing fine. He’s no longer at risk.” The doctor smiled. “His wound is infected, but it’s fine now after being stitched up. It’s fortunate that he was sent here in time, or the consequences would have been unimaginable.” Trinity breathed out in relief as tears kept streaming. Aurelia’s lurching heart settled down as well. Luckily, he was sent to the hospital in time. Her decision was right. She looked at the operation ward from afar. Fredric had received the best treatment, and she had no guilty conscience. What she should be considering now was to escape this place as soon as possible. Neil waved for his men to take care of the petty tasks, like the hospitalization procedures. Aurelia saw that no one was watching her anymore and inched outward with her back against the wall. She was going to sneak away when Cordelia spotted her. “Wait!” Alarmed, Aurelia spun on her heel and ran. Cordelia hurried after her, grabbing her clothes instead of her arm. Aurelia was horrified. As they pushed and pulled, Cordelia lost her balance and fell sideways. “Cordelia!” Zephyr shouted, but someone dove for the floor before he could run over. He was shocked. Aurelia held Cordelia’s shoulder and threw herself below the latter, cushioning the hard fall. At the same time, she kept Cordelia securely protected. Zephyr quickly carried Cordelia up and repeatedly confirmed that she was fine before he looked at Aurelia with a hint of confusion. Aurelia had failed to escape, and her metal box had fallen with a clank, the cash inside scattering on the floor. With Neil’s order, the bodyguards surrounded her. Aurelia looked around in panic, and her mind went blank. “Take her back.” Zephyr’s voice was cold and deep. “I want to ask her what happened myself!” “Zephyr…” Cordelia held his hand discreetly. “Let me do it when we go back. You’re all men. It might not be appropriate.” Neil scoffed. “Cordelia, this girl’s not as innocent as she looks! She nearly cost Fredric’s life and took his jacket to sell at the square! You’re pregnant now. Be careful when you interrogate her!” “Hey, w-what are you saying!?” Aurelia was anxious. “I didn’t harm Fredric! I didn’t wound him!”

life would be at risk if something bad happened because you treated and medicated him on your own? Can you bear the responsibility!?” Aurelia looked at her without saying a word. Cordelia could see the terror in her eyes and understood her fear. She could not understand that it was supposed to be something simple. It would have been done and dusted if she had reported it to the police. Why had she dragged it out to this state? Some people came from the other end of the hallway. The leather shoes against the marble flooring echoed in the corridor and sounded oppressive. A few police officers in uniform came to them. “Mr. and Mrs. Hamerton,” the officer greeted politely. “We heard that Mr. Constable’s found, so we’re here for statements.” Aurelia turned pale when she saw the police, and her odd expression attracted attention. The officer asked, “Mr. Hamerton, this is…” Zephyr and Cordelia exchanged a look and said nothing, but their gazes were alert. “Miss.” The officer approached Aurelia, sized her up, and smiled. “Please show me your ID.” Aurelia bit her lips. Only pain would keep her mind clear and stop her from shaking badly. “Miss, do you not understand?” The officer raised his voice. “ID please!

She was stunned while an arm went around her shoulders and held her lightly. “She didn’t bring hers. Check mine.” Aurelia’s ear buzzed as she stared in a daze at the man beside her. His embrace was warm, and his shirt had a nice, soapy smell. He was a head taller than her, and she could see his chiseled jaw, the stubbles, and his bobbing Adam’s apple from her angle. Aurelia felt like her heart had stopped. Neil looked nonchalant with a polite smile as he
