Cordelia was even more surprised. “Why are you taking our marriage certificates!?”

Zephyr felt his throat tighten, and his lips grew dry. He did not know how to explain it.

While Cordelia had been away, he had found the marriage certificates, and as expected, it was Marcus Grist’s name on them. Back when Cordelia got married on behalf of Yelena, the Jenners had pulled some strings and registered the marriage with Marcus’ ID directly.

If he had known that he would fall so deep for Cordelia now, he would have gone to the registration personally, no matter what.

Frederic had told him that it was not too late to change the name now. It was just a little more troublesome.

In spite of it, Cordelia caught him when he had just wanted to take the certificates with him.

“Darling, what’s the matter?” Cordelia was vaguely disconcerted seeing the man in a daze.

“You… made a mess of our home just to find the marriage certificates? Why do you need them?”
