Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 233

His thought was precisely what Matthew had in mind. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Although Marcus had been secretly trained since he was caught, he could not be compared to Zephyr. Who they were at their core were different. No matter how the man was trained, a mouse could never turn into a tiger.

The plan to let Marcus pretend to be Zephyr and send him to Chaiseland to sign the loan… The one in Chaiseland was Zephyr’s mother! If something happened, Matthew would be in big trouble.

“Does that Marcus really look like Zephyr?” Liam asked him calmly.

Matthew sweated. “Yes… It’s said that the Jenners have a marriage agreement with him. For some reason, though, our Zephyr, who had been recuperating in that village—”

Matthew clamped his mouth straight away. If he went on, the plane crash would inevitably be brought up.

“Anyway… that’s basically the case!” Matthew chuckled. “Dad, it’s a misunderstanding. Maybe Zephyr hasn’t met a naive woman from a small place and is only after the novelty.

“When the woman is wiped out, Zephyr will still be the best heir of the Hamertons! Haha…”

Matthew was genuinely laughing this time.

Wiping Cordelia out would be killing Zephyr! This would be much more efficient and useful than tinkering with the plane. Moreover, he would not be directly blamed for it. Liam hated the woman too!

The more Matthew thought about it, the wiser he thought he was.

He grinned. “Dad, don’t worry. I’ve already found Cordelia’s address. She’s opened up a small cafe with Zephyr in Jangasas.

“I’ll send Marcus over now. You have to keep Zephyr here!”

Liam looked up at him with a smile. “Sure, you’re in charge. Make sure it’s clean!”

“But if Zephyr wants to get to the bottom of it…” Matthew had to watch out for the family’s overlord. After all, he did not want his grave on Splendor Mountain.

“I’ll handle him if that happens!” replied Liam.

That was all Matthew was waiting for. He left, chuckling after that.

“Book Marcus a flight right now. To Jangasas two hours from now!” He made arrangements immediately.

“When he wipes Cordelia out…” Matthew lowered his voice. “Look for a chance and take him out too!”

…

Before Zephyr got to the main building’s door, he saw Clark coming out from there.

“Is grandpa doing better?”

“Much better.” Clark had a guilty conscience.

“What does the doctor say?”

“Well…” Clark had no idea what to answer.

Sometimes, he could not figure out what Liam was doing either. Even if he wanted Zephyr to take over the company, he could say it openly. Why must he pretend to be ill? Was he worried that Zephyr would leave Centrolis again?

Even if Zephyr was not in Centrolis, he still worked hard for the company.

Clark shook his head and sighed.

“Sir, age is probably catching up to Mr. Liam. He’s not like he used to be. Furthermore, he’s not in a good mood. You’ve got to understand him more.”

“Mm.” Zephyr nodded. “I’ll go take a look.”

“He’s just fallen asleep.” Clark gave him a stack of documents. “Before he slept, he asked you to finish going through these and come again in the evening.”

“But didn’t he just meet Uncle Matthew?”

Clark froze. “Mr. Matthew did come. He left after sending the tonic.”

Zephyr’s brows were scrunched together. He kept feeling that something was not right.

He stood outside for some time and turned back to his meeting room. The endless business meetings tired him out. He wanted to lie in the room but received an international call simultaneously.
