Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Chad sent William the photo he had secretly taken of Cordelia in the meeting.

It was unclear, but William could still tell it was her. He did not expect Cordelia to have risen from her lowly status

and grown into the elegant beauty she was now.

Blood rushed up to his head in a fit of rage as he shakily swiped the photo away.

“It’s your daughter, right? Hah, I told you I wouldn’t recognize her wrong!”

“Oh.” William’s tone was indifferent. “Why are you asking about her?”

“Nothing, just asking out of concern!”

“Hah!” William knew well how loaded the word “concern” was.

“She’s married already. I have no idea how she’s been doing recently!”

“What?” Chad frowned. “So young… and married already? To whom?”

William gnashed his teeth. “An ex-inmate!”

Chad was even more shocked at the revelation that he went speechless, only snapping out of it when the call was

hung up on him.

He carefully recalled the times he spent socializing with William and thought he seemed to have heard the latter

complain when they were drinking one time. He mentioned a marriage pact the last generation agreed on, but

members of that family were either dead or lost, leaving a useless son who was a thug, frequently fighting and

going to jail…

Chad was filled with sudden glee. He knew that William did not like the illegitimate daughter, but he did not know

that it was to this extent! He just watched his daughter jump into the fire pit!

In this case, Cordelia must have come to Centrolis to escape from her ex-inmate husband. She was then recruited

by Imperial Media due to her excellent state and talent, then got to where she was one step after another…

She did not have much of a background, as even her maiden family was just a décor. Even if Chad did anything to

her, she could only swallow it. She might even put up with it and follow him for money.

Chad began to have ulterior ideas about Cordelia and grinned lecherously. A married woman was more fun… Since

her husband was useless, he would give her some love!

…

A week later, the open audition for the film characters officially began.

Aside from the directors, investor representatives were also on the judging panel.

Imperial Media’s seat was initially set on the left, but Zephyr’s sudden presence took the organizer aback, and they

quickly rearranged the seating.

“No need for the hassle.” Zephyr was nonchalant. “I have shares in Imperial Media as well. I come on behalf of

Madam Baker this time.”

Despite what he said, the organizer dared not slack and still placed him in the center.

Janine did not attend. The one who came was Cordelia. There was some distance between her seat and Zephyr’s,

but she met his fiery gaze once she sat down. She smiled and quickly turned away to focus on the artists who went

on stage.

During the first round, a few Imperial Media and Sol Entertainment artists were on par in singing and dancing. The

competition was fierce. It was interesting and fitted what a variety show required.

Cordelia watched seriously and took notes from time to time. Even though there was a script for the variety show

and the scores they gave were agreed upon earlier, she did not know when the cameras would pan to the judging

panel, so she acted accordingly.

Chad was distracted. His eyes were on Cordelia, and he forgot what he had to say a few times when the host raised

questions to him, having to resort to the teleprompter to cover himself.

During the last recording, he made several mistakes in what he said. When he finally finished it with much fumbling,

he looked up and abruptly met Zephyr’s icy eyes.

Chad shuddered and quickly forced a pandering smile.

“M-Mr. Zephyr!”

He wiped his hands on himself and extended both of them. “I’ve heard about Mr. Zephyr Hamerton from Centrolis

back in Jangasas and have looked forward to meeting you! It’s my honor to shoot a film you’ve invested in. I’m

really… I must have done some great good in my past life! Hahaha…”

Zephyr glanced at him coldly without shaking his hands.

As Chad’s hands hovered in the air for some time, he pulled them back with a fake smile.

“What are you looking at?” Zephyr’s voice was cold and sharp like a knife.

“Huh? I…” Chad sweated and felt chills run down his spine.

Zephyr had long noticed that this b*stard was staring at Cordelia. Chad Green was really the first one who dared

act so boldly in front of him! Should he dig out Chad’s eyes or castrate him directly?

While Zephyr thought about it, he smirked, and an icy glint gleamed in his eyes. The intimidating presence he

exuded shot tingles of fear down Chad’s back.

Chad looked around and was quickly aware that a woman like Cordelia would enchant all men. He ought to let

Zephyr have fun first. He did not mind picking up after the heir once he got bored with her! After all, his life was

more important compared to lust…

Chad looked at Zephyr, fearful and obsequious. He forced a smile to tell him, “The… The senior assistant from

Imperial Media. Hah, I’ve asked around! She’s the daughter of a friend of mine, an illegitimate one. It’s said that

she’s married to a thug and doesn’t have a very good life…

“If you like her, I-I can help you get her?”

Zephyr’s fists tightened under the table, veins popping on the back of his hands.

He said nothing and glowered darker. Chad did not understand, as all he could see was Cordelia. He wondered

when the rich heir would be done with the girl. A rich heir like him should be bored with the ty very soon…

While Chad let his thoughts wander, he suddenly noticed that Cordelia had disappeared from her seat, and so had

Zephyr.

There was another round of the show to film, an important one, where most of it would be broadcast. The artists

who would make their appearance next were obviously higher in status than the ones before.

What was the meaning of the talent show if Zephyr was not around?

Chad was going to look for him when the organizer notified them, “Hi all, that’s all for the recording today. The next

one will be filmed next week. Thank you for your hard work!”

Chad paused and slumped back in his seat. His heart itched as he looked at Cordelia’s empty chair. He had to

endure another week before he could see the beauty.

Despite that, he did not know that a few pairs of eyes were on him at the same time.
