Fredric looked at Marcus in disbelief. His eyes widely bulged, but there was nothing he could say.
“Karine must have made a lot of preparations before making her move.” Fredric pitched his voice low
and said, “She colluded with the other company and then wiped out the only video that could prove
Cordelia’s innocence. She has all the evidence on her side, so… I’m afraid Cordelia has to be the
scapegoat this time.”
Marcus glared at him gloomily.
Fredric hastily continued. “But believe me, Z, I assure you that I’ll find other evidence to prove her
innocence!”
Marcus stood up silently and walked into the room gently.
Cordelia was sleeping soundly, and it seemed that she was really tired. She turned around with his
pillows between her arms. Her face was gradually getting a little flushed and shiny.

“It’ll be too late by the time you find evidence!” His expression changed as soon as he came out of the
room, and he looked coldly at Fredric.
“You must get this done immediately! Since they accused Cordelia of selling her company’s proprietary
secrets to their rival company, then start from there!”
“What do you mean, Z?”
“For other people, those are secrets. But for people in the company, they are not secrets at all.”
Fredric’s mouth gaped widely. “What?”
“We’re going to merge the two companies.”
Fredric was rendered speechless.
“If we merge both companies, it won’t count as proprietary information leakage. Besides, we need to
get rid of some excess people when we merge companies.” Marcus looked at him and curled his lips
upward. “I’m sure you know what I’m talking about, right?”
Fredric was stunned. He wanted to say something but did not know what to say. In the end, he gave
Marcus a thumbs up and laughed. “Z, that’s truly a brilliant move.
“But it isn’t that easy to merge two companies, so…”
“I’ll leave it to you,” Marcus said as he walked into the kitchen and put on the apron with practiced
ease.
The corner of Fredric’s mouth twitched.
Merging two companies and firing Karine wasn’t a big issue, but it would certainly draw unnecessary
attention.
At that time, what should they do if someone came after them?
It seemed to Fredric that Marcus had gone out of his mind. He would do anything for Cordelia.
While Fredric was still in deep thought, he smelled something from the kitchen and was stunned.

“If you don’t have anything else to tell me, then you should leave now. I won’t prepare any dinner for
you,” Marcus said as he brought a plate of spaghetti out of the kitchen. He rolled his eyes at Fredric
and walked straight into the bedroom.
He had always wanted other people to serve him the meal, but now, he gently woke Cordelia up and
held her in his arms. Then, he comforted her gently like she was a little baby. After that, he picked up
the plate of spaghetti and blew it a few times before feeding it to Cordelia.
A gentle smile tugged at the corner of his lips as he looked at Cordelia alluringly. While feeding her, he
asked her if he was good and if his cooking had improved, like a little boy asking for praise.
Fredric hastily left the house.
He did not feel hungry anymore after seeing their lovey-dovey scene. Since it was still early, he decided
to return to his firm and figure out a way to merge the two companies.
