Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Cordelia showed Oliver to the meeting room.

The gathered people at the door were gloating.

“Ms. Carmichael just wanted Mr. Jones to say that Cordelia’s ring is made of green glass. Who knew it was an authentic emerald? She even got the client in the end!” someone whispered cheerily. “I suppose she suffered a double loss?”

“Pfft! More like penny-wise but pound-foolish!”

“Haha!”

Karine stood where she was, frozen. Her mind was empty, and she shook from rage.

She walked over quickly and slammed the door. The loud thud echoed.

The people gathered at the door dispersed, but peals of laughter lingered in the office. They were already displeased by her arrogance, but they allowed her behavior since her uncle was a major shareholder.

They were secretly over the moon to see her defeated today.

…

After sending Oliver to the entrance of the company, smiling, Cordelia caressed the ring on her finger softly after saying goodbye.

Was it really an emerald?

She beamed, and two tiny dimples perked on her cheeks as if they contained all of the sweetness of the world in them.

Now that she thought about it carefully, her luck seemed to have improved after marrying Marcus. She was getting more and more sales. Not only that, but he would always appear to help whenever a crisis arose.
