Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 243

“I think you should just take her back to Centrolis with you. At least your dad and I are in the Hamertons. We won’t let Cordelia suffer any loss or disadvantage.”

“Thanks, Aunt Cloud.” Zephyr forced a smile. “I’m afraid she’ll hate me more if I do that.”

“Have you caught Marcus?”

“No,” Zephyr answered in a low tone. “The guy who took him away is sly and familiar with Jangasas’ suburbs, especially the junctions around the riverside. He covered his face once he got close to places with surveillance cameras. The car doesn’t have a registration plate either, so it’s hard to investigate it.”

“Let me know if you need my help,” Kate consoled him.

Zephyr looked at her gratefully and nodded. He then asked casually, “When are you and Zennie going back?”

“These two days, I think. It’s time Zennie focuses and prepares for her university application!”

As soon as Kate said that, Zennie bounced in, opening the door. She quickly asked about Cordelia when she saw that her brother was there.

In spite of it, Zephyr’s attention was on the person behind her.

Zephyr watched him closely. “You are…”

“I’m Phil Nelson. You probably don’t know me, sir.”

‘So, he is Phil Nelson.’ Zephyr felt a little unsettled.

The young man looked around 20 years old but exuded a jarring aura of maturity and composure. He had a refreshing and handsome face, but his eyes had an inexplicable sinister tint.

Phil saw that Zephyr’s cup was empty and took the initiative to refill it for him. The moment the young man bowed to pour tea, the surveillance recordings that Zephyr had looked into previously flashed in his mind!

They could not clearly see the driver’s face, but half of the face exposed under the cap was thin and pale like his.

Zephyr was startled.

“You’re Phil Nelson?”

Unfazed, Phil stood before him humbly and nodded. “Yes, Mr. Zephyr.”

“Don’t’ drive too fast when you send Aunt Cloud and Zennie back to Centrolis. Be careful on the road. Check if the registration plates are covered before you depart.”

“Heh, Mr. Zephyr.” Phil chuckled. “I’m sorry. I haven’t gotten my driver’s license. But I’ve already booked the flight tickets to send Mrs. and Ms. Hamerton back. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure of their safety.”

Zephyr stayed quiet and looked at him with a complex gaze.

“Buy some gifts back these two days. I heard that there are several specialty shops in Jangasas’ suburbs near the riverside.”

“Mr. Zephyr, I’m not familiar with that area. This hotel actually sells specialty products. I’ll make the arrangement before we leave.”

Zephyr’s brows were furrowed together.

He had mentioned “registration plates”, “suburbs”, and “riverside” during his questions just now. All these had to do with Marcus’ escape.

However, this young man looked natural and answered without missing a beat. He did not show any hint of nerves… Was he really unrelated to this incident?

Zephyr fell deep in thought and grew skeptical. His subconscious told him that he must not let Phil send his stepmother and sister alone, so he left and called Robert outside of Regalia.

“Move your men. They don’t have to guard my house for now.” He lowered his voice. “Arrange for them to send Aunt Cloud and Zennie back to Centrolis.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Also, look into the family’s long-term employees with the last name Nelson.”

Zephyr rushed back home after the call.

Cordelia’s injuries had more or less recovered now, but she was growing more reluctant to meet anyone, and the number of times she showered was increasing. Any slight movement or sound scared her like a deer caught in headlights.
