Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 131

When Cordelia wanted to keep the string, Marcus put it in his pocket first.

"Darling, you..."

"That's what the old woman said," he said. "One for you and one for me. We keep it separately, so if we're really separated in the future—"

"No, shush! We won't be separated!" Cordelia was scared. It did not matter what the old woman said, but the word "separated" coming from Marcus gave her a heavy sense of premonition. Marcus consoled, his husky voice exceptionally gentle, "Silly, I'll find you back even if we're separated!"

"Mn!" Cordelia nodded firmly.

Seth and Linda exchanged a look and smiled in unison.

The four of them walked around for a bit and returned to the hotel. The manager came to welcome them personally and took them to the best restaurant.

Seth and Linda were dumbfounded when they entered. This was Edarial Dining that was said to cost a person half a year of salary for a meal! How would Cordelia reserve a place like this!?

"Is this a mistake?" Cordelia was puzzled. "I booked the standard meal online..."

"It's not. This is the place."

The manager was courteous. As he clapped, a line of trained servers appeared to serve them exquisite dishes.

Cordelia widened her eyes and bated her breath. She had only seen these dishes on the Internet. They were all Edarial Dining's signature dishes. With a table full of dishes like these, she might not be able to afford it even if she went bankrupt to pay!

"Mister!" She gasped.

"Ms. Jenner, you did book a standard meal," the manager explained with a smile. "But we're celebrating our anniversary with promotions these few days and have drawn lucky guests staying in our hotel to upgrade them to deluxe meals. Your booking number was drawn, Ms. Jenner!"

"What?" This was Cordelia's first time hearing that there was something this fortuitous.

Seth and Linda were stunned as they looked at each other, feeling like they were dreaming.

"For real? We hit the jackpot!" Linda scanned the surroundings excitedly before she frowned. "But why isn't there anyone if there's an activity like this?"

"Yeah!" Seth chorused. "It's only the few of us since we checked in till now. This is so strange!"

"Uh..." The manager chuckled dryly, unable to gloss it over.

Marcus coughed and discreetly hugged Cordelia. "Since there's free lunch, let's not ask too much and just enjoy it!"

Seth shook his head. "Yeah... but it's still odd!

He spoke softly, "Hey, you think this is a scam? Some dodgy businesses charge a crazy amount after the customers finish eating with the gimmick of winning a prize!" Marcus was rendered speechless.

"I think we should be more careful." The more Seth said, the more he sounded convincing. "Who knows if the dishes are drugged? They may even get our bank password out of us!" Everyone went silent.

Marcus took a deep breath and said flatly, "Seth, it's a waste that you became a doctor."

"Hmm?"

Marcus gnashed his teeth. "You should be writing a novel instead!"

"Huh? How did you know?" Seth chuckled in a carefree manner. "My ambition when I was younger was to become a novelist. I listened to my mom, though, and gave up on literature to study medicine!" "Alright!" Linda was giggling. "How could a renowned restaurant like this extort its customers? Cordelia's just having super good luck. Let's dig in! I'm starving!"
