Married a Secret Billionaire

Persephone hesitated, her gaze fixed on the man who stood and bid farewell.

The autumn breeze rustled, scattering golden sycamore leaves from the ground. The setting sun bathed the man’s figure, giving him an almost gilded appearance. He exuded an aura of intimidation that kept everyone at bay.

“Let’s head home, Sephy,” the nanny said, reaching for her hand.

“Do you know him?” Persephone asked, lifting her face.

The nanny shook her head, her fear of the imposing man evident. “Okay, Sephy, let’s go! This place is pretty isolated, and we can’t return here.”

Hand in hand, they entered the car with the escort of bodyguards.

Before departing, Persephone instinctively glanced at where the man had been. Unfortunately, no one else was in sight besides a few scattered tourists.

The board of directors remained undecided about the Hamerton Group’s theme park renovation proposal. Some members aimed to please Toph, urging Zuko to invest, considering it a negligible sum. Yet, others perceived it as a matter of the company’s image.

The Hamerton Group had historically invested in substantial charity projects like hospitals, nursing homes, and orphanages, making an old theme park seem unworthy of their efforts. More importantly, renovating the park in a manner that yielded no profit could tarnish their reputation.

For Zuko, business rationality took precedence over familial sentiment, but he wanted to do something for his brother this time.

“The theme park renovation proposal didn’t receive approval from the board of directors,” Zuko said.

Toph deflated upon hearing the news in his office. He slumped onto the sofa, disheartened.

“But…” Zuko smiled. “I can explore other options.”
