Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 286

“Anything I want to do the most?”

His warm lips were against the shell of her ear as his deep, husky voice puffed out these incredibly tempting words.

Cordelia felt her heart skip a beat as her face flushed. She leaned back against him.

“What I want to do the most now… is to keep hugging you like this.”

Zephyr was delighted about it. He knew that the girl got shy easily and had to go slow, so he led her forward. “What else do you want to do after hugging?”

“Huh?” Cordelia looked up, her innocent gaze confused.

“Think about how we were.” Zephyr smiled while stroking her face. “Back at home… where do you usually hug me?”

Cordelia obviously did not want to go along with what he said and purposely replied, “Oh, back then? Didn’t we always hug on the balcony? We looked at the stars together after I hugged you like this!” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Zephyr was rendered speechless.

She chuckled, “Oh yeah, Zephyr, I kind of want to stargaze now. Do it with me, okay?”

The deflated man was unwilling, but he forced a smile.

“Sure, stargazing.” His tone was doting.

Cordelia giggled in secret, sly like a little fox.

When she looked up, though, the night weather was foggy and a little damp and cold. They probably would not be seeing anything.

She looked at Zephyr disappointedly and grimaced, “When you were in Centrolis and I was in Jangasas the last time, I saw that the starry sky was beautiful here through the video you sent me.”

“Don’t worry.” Zephyr’s gaze was gentle. “Tonight’s stars will be beautiful too.”

“But…”

“Come with me.” He held her hand. “I’ll make sure you see the stars!”

Cordelia was pulled into the car. Zephyr drove eastward, following the road by the sea, and came to the Hamertons’ private beach.

Cordelia followed him there, stepping on the soft sandy beach. The sea breeze was salty against her face, and she could hear seagulls from afar.

Zephyr took off his jacket to drape it on her and asked her to look at the sky far away.

“There’s nothing…” Her eyes were wide open, but all she saw was darkness.

Zephyr chortled. “Look closer.”

“Are you tricking me?”

“Who’s tricking you?” His smile was endlessly loving. “Over there, see. Aren’t those stars?”

When Cordelia looked over again, plenty of bright little spots appeared in the sky for some reason. She was baffled. Those light spots were moving swiftly toward them.

“What…”

When they came closer, she saw they were drones—hundreds of them!

The glowing drones lit up the night sky like stars against the navy canvas.

Cordelia was dazed as she stared at the sky with bated breath.

Zephyr chuckled lightly, looking at her.

The hundreds of drones moved into a huge heart-shaped formation in the darkness before spelling “Love”.

The scene felt like a dream that Cordelia could not believe.

She called for him softly, “Zephyr, this is…”

“I told you I’ll let you see stars.”

She was thrilled and moved, not knowing what to say. As she stared at him with her bright eyes, they grew misty.

“Zephyr…” She could only say his name and could not go on, afraid she would tear up if she said any more.

“Don’t be so touched yet.” Zephyr smiled and told her next to her ear, “Close your eyes.”
