Cordelia asked Clark to call the family doctor over to give Liam a full check at once, then she went to Yale and said
with a smile, “Lead the way, Yale!”
“What?” Yale pretended not to understand.
Cordelia smiled, replying clearly, “To catch the affair red-handed!”
Yale could not refuse. He and Matthew were like the Hamertons’ weeds—everyone could step on them.
The bodyguards kept him pinned as he took Cordelia to Yale Residence.
Michelle was applying some meds to Marcus in the guest room as she pretended to shed a few tears. She wanted
to throw herself at him, but the man shouted, “Don’t come over!”
The changed tone shocked Michelle.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe injuries on Marcus throbbed once they were pulled, causing him to hiss.
“Zephyr…” Michelle told him softly, “I’ve spent a couple of days here with you since you got injured!”
“Hmm? Oh…” Marcus thought that she wanted money and waved an impatient hand. “Go to Yale if you want
money. I’ve signed plenty of documents. That’ll make him lots of money!”
“What are you talking about?” Michelle was stunned.
Marcus shut up immediately. “Nothing, nothing.”
Michelle’s eyes flitted. “Zephyr, I’ve kept you company. Could you bear to see me stay like this in showbiz?”
Marcus side-eyed her. “Is that not good?”
“Of course not! Those people look down on me…”
“It’s not like you’re a bigshot. It’s normal that they look down on you!”
“You…” Michelle took a deep breath to suppress her anger.
Marcus was more than annoyed. His injuries and Michelle nagging him about spending money to make her popular
made him doubt his life choices.
“Zephyr, you can’t not help me!” Michelle went all out and plopped herself in his arms.
Marcus’ reflex caused him to shove her. “F*ck you! Are you trying to kill me with the pain?”
Michelle stumbled from the push and fell to the floor, crying in pain.
“Stay the f*ck away from me!” cursed Marcus. “You got my wound!”
Michelle was relentless. She struggled to get up and cling to him.
Marcus nearly slapped her, but once the warm and pliant body was in his arms, he could not control a certain part
of his and lost his rationale.

Before she could, the door was opened with a loud sound.
Both of them jumped in shock.
“I see why you don’t come home now.” Cordelia’s sarcastic voice echoed. “You’re hiding at Yale’s and having the
time of your life!”
Marcus and Michelle were astonished.
They saw Cordelia at the door looking like the queen while the man behind him who hung his head and was pinned
by the bodyguards was the usually arrogant… Yale?
“W-What’s going on?” Marcus stammered but acted like Zephyr and said, “Cordelia, why are you holding Yale up
like this? Come on, let him go!”
“Yale’s done something wrong, so this is how he’s punished.” Cordelia smiled. “How could we let him go before he
learns his lesson?”
