Fredric did not dare to raise his head as he did not want to face Marcus’ piercing gaze.

After a long while of silence, he stammered, “Z, you’re not the true Marcus. You’re just using his identity. Since you’re using his ID card, you also registered your marriage with his ID card.

“So from the perspective of the law, the one who married Cordelia is Marcus, not Zephyr.”

Josiah sprang up and said, “But the real Marcus is dead!”

“Yes…” Fredric’s voice was getting lower and lower as he continued to speak. “So it’s invalid. Because he’s already dead.”

A silence descended in the room.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Marcus, and then they lowered their heads.

Marcus’ face was getting darker and darker with each passing moment.

‘That’s right… Why didn’t I think of it earlier?’

When they were registering their marriage, they were not there. It was the Jenners who did everything for them with their ID cards. The people from the city hall did not check whether the real Marcus was still alive or was already dead either.

Therefore, the name “Zephyr” had never appeared on their marriage certificate.

Marcus pinched the center of his forehead, and the veins on his temples were throbbing.

“Z, but it doesn’t matter either,” Josiah said softly. “We… We just need to find a chance and redo the marriage certificate in secret.”

“Can you use your brain and think? It isn’t something that can be done that easily!” Fredric glared at him.

“Why not?” Josiah replied stubbornly, “Yes, the Hamertons won’t accept Cordelia, but as long as Z likes her, nothing will be a problem!”

Fredric was rendered speechless. He darted a few daggers at him before turning his head back.

Josiah continued. “You don’t know anything, Freddy. It isn’t that easy to find the love of your life. Do you know what the most precious thing in our life is? It’s love!
