Nicholas rolled his eyes at him with a scoff and took him to the room.
When the employees saw the light at the door, they ran toward it.
“What are you doing!?” growled Nicholas.
The group fell to their knees on the floor. “Sir, have mercy! We don’t know where we met you and how we offended
you… Can you tell us?
“We’ll do whatever you want us to do!”
Zephyr stepped forward and tossed the marriage certificates in front of them.
“This…”
“These two people on the marriage certificates would like to end their marriage.” Zephyr looked at them coldly.
“But the man isn’t around. Give me the fastest solution!”
The group looked at each other in bewilderment. A light shone above them, allowing them to read the details on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe certificates.
“Marcus Grist?” One of them recognized the name and asked shakily, “Isn’t this… the son-in-law of the Jenners?”
“You know him?” Zephyr arched his brow.
“No, I don’t…” ninja.com The person was drenched in sweat and dared not look up while spilling the beans
amidst the panic. “B-Βut a year ago, Mr. William Jenner sent his subordinate to inform us that his daughter wanted
to register her marriage and asked us to accommodate it…”
Zephyr furrowed his brows, his gaze sharp. He casually stuffed his hands in his pants pockets. “How so?”
“The two parties wouldn’t be present, and we were to register the marriage with their IDs directly…”
“Can you f*cking finish the whole thing!?” Nicholas smacked the table.
As if terrified, the person screwed their eyes shut and blurted everything else that had happened.
“I-I registered them! But I managed to check that Marcus Grist’s ID had expired. He was marked as a missing
person! How could a missing person get married? A-And we can’t register a marriage when no party is present. It’s
the rule!
“So I-I… I made two fake marriage certificates…”
“What!?” Nicholas’ eyes bulged.
“These marriage certificates are fake?”
“Y-Yes!” The person was close to tears. “Because I took Mr. Jenner’s money, and I couldn’t not do it for him. But
what he asked me to do wasn’t compliant with the rules, and I dared not break the law… so I-I created two fake
certificates to get through it!
“All I’ve said is true! I saved the money in my card and haven’t dared to use it over the year! Take it if you want…
Let us go. We couldn’t help it!”
Nicholas gaped, not expecting that this was the reality.
Zephyr, who stood on the side, looked cold with his fists clenched.
“So, these two people aren’t husband and wife legally, right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes!” The person’s voice was shaking. “Marcus Grist and Cordelia Jenner… aren’t husband and wife!”
The frown on Zephyr smoothed out a little, and the rock in him was suddenly lifted. Despite the elation, he had no
expression and didn’t utter a word.
Nicholas eyed his underlings and let them escort these people out.
The two of them were the only ones left in the room. Nicholas patted Zephyr’s shoulder with a chuckle. “That’s
great. Cordelia has no relationship with Marcus! Hah, you’ve pretended to be that b*stard for so long, and you
didn’t expect his ID to be invalid, huh?”
Zephyr shook his head and cracked a smile after some time.
“Tell Cordelia the good news!” Nicholas said, “Perhaps she’ll reconcile with you out of joy.”
“It’s not because of the two fake marriage certificates that she isn’t reconciling with me,” Zephyr said faintly. “It’s
because I lied to her.”
“Then, what are you going to do?”
“I’m taking her back to Centrolis.” Zephyr looked resolute. “I want her to become my actual wife.”
