Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 362

"What?" Zephyr narrowed his eyes and thought about it before scoffing. "More like he's absconding!"

Cordelia looked at him. It was a coincidence because she was also suspecting Phil. Other than the young man and Zennie, Royal Manor had never taken in other guests.

Zephyr's gaze was icy. "Robert, are his whereabouts traced?"

Robert nodded. "His flight goes straight to Jangasas."

It meant that there must be something in Jangasas that attracted him.

"Seize the Nelsons at home first," he said coldly. "Send our people to Jangasas to keep track of him!"

"Yes, sir."

"Phil must have support behind him to be able to take a long break from the manor so easily!"

Zephyr's gaze was cold as a draft of a plan formed in his mind. Phil was just the bait. He wanted to use him to fish out the person behind him! As for who it was, he more or less could already guess it.

Zephyr turned to Cordelia, who had been quiet by his side. He sighed and hugged her, speaking softly. "This kind of life is scary, isn't it?"

Cordelia was silent as she let him hug her in a daze, a flicker of complex emotions flashing in her bright eyes.

"You said that you'd work hard to enter my world." Zephyr's voice was hoarse. "This is what my world is like. It's not pleasant at all. You get harmed anytime.

"Before I met you, I didn't take anything sweet at all. Do you know why?

"On my 9th birthday, there was mercury in my birthday cake... That birthday left me with a huge trauma, so I've never tried anything sweet from then on." Cordelia looked up at him with a jolt.

The wealth, the opulence, the power, the status-these were all that others saw. The rotten and savage, the scares and worries-no one could feel it other than himself. Cordelia held Zephyr's face with a soft smile. She looked into his eyes and said seriously, "Your world really isn't that pleasant.

"But you in front of me, you're the one and only in this world!"

"Cordelia..."

"You aren't fighting alone in your world." She smiled softly. "You have me!"

Zephyr pressed his lips together and clutched her hand. He did not ever want to let it go.

The nurse came out and informed them that Helen had woken up, so the two of them hurried in to see her.

Helen was a little weak, but she forced a smile upon seeing them.

"Aunt Helen." Cordelia sat by the bed and looked at her in concern. "How are you feeling?"

"I feel..." Helen smiled kindly. "I feel so fortunate that you didn't drink that soup!"

Cordelia felt heat rush up her eyes.

"Aunt Helen, the doctors who are treating you are the best ones," said Zephyr. "Don't worry. There won't be any sequelae. Take the opportunity to have a rest too. You've got to make sure you recover completely."

"Mr. Zephyr, Ms. Cordelia..." Helen coughed and panted. "I... I'm a little tired, so I'll keep it short.

"The soups I make daily, I prepare the ingredients myself. Nothing will go wrong for sure!

"But the soup today, I suddenly thought about adding some Bird's Nest in there... Cough. Phil and Ms. Zennie brought that Bird's Nest the last time they came!"

"What!?"
