Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 381

Rowan had been staring through the car window the whole morning.

When Cordelia went to work in the morning, he saw her hasty figure. When she came downstairs to buy coffee around 10:00 a.m., he got to see a glimpse of her again.

Until now, though, she had yet to leave the building.

Rowan was a little disappointed but reluctant to leave, drumming his fingers on his knee.

"Mr. Irwin, are we waiting?"

Rowan's subordinate, Charlie Williams, who had served him for many years, understood what he was thinking currently. The feeling of wanting to get close to someone but daring not to was the most tormenting.

Charlie sighed. "Mr. Irwin, why aren't you reuniting with them? It's been so many years, and you've never forgotten them..."

"Say no more." Rowan's tone was solemn.

How could he forget them so easily? Other than Xyla, he had never loved anyone else his whole life-and Cordelia was their precious daughter.

When he was younger, he had imagined countless times how he would pamper and dote on his daughter until she grew up if he had one...

Rowan's eyes burned, and his heart clenched in pain.

"Then..." Charlie asked again, "When do we send the medicine to Mr. Zephyr Hamerton?"

Rowan contemplated and answered airily, "Not in a hurry."

"Huh?" Charlie was surprised. "But the previous dosage is already coming to its limit..."

"Let it be. Not like it'll kill him!" Rowan glared at Charlie. "Why do you have so much to say today!?" Charlie was rendered speechless.

"I have to see how this Zephyr Hamerton's treating our Cordelia and decide if I'll treat him, right?"

Charlie was stunned and winced. What happened to caring for the infirm and saving the dying? What happened to the benevolence of a doctor? Once it was his son-in-law, it was observe-and-wait. "Mr. Irwin, if Mr. Zephyr mistreats our Cordelia, then..."

"He wouldn't dare!" Rowan's eyes bulged into saucers. "I'll stab him with my needle!"

Charlie held back his laugh.

"He won't, he won't." Charlie said, "I saw him being very protective of Cordelia in the auction!"

Rowan heaved a long sigh and said after a long time, "It's no use that he's the only one nice to Cordelia. She'll suffer grievances marrying into a family like the Hamertons without any support!" "Mr. Irwin, you're her support!"

Rowan looked sullen.

He had made the promise not to disturb their lives... He really should not show himself again. Yet, he really wished to hear Cordelia call him dad. His daughter was so pretty, and her voice must sound nice too. "Did the brat Zephyr save the world in his last life?" Rowan muttered, leaning against the car window, "How did he get to marry my wonderful daughter!?"

Charlie shook his head with a helpless smile.

"Right. I heard that Elder Mr. Hamerton wants to meet me?"

"Well..." Charlie pursed his lips. "I guess it is to talk about the hospital collaboration?"

Rowan looked thoughtful. "Zephyr got a big plot of land in the western suburbs of Centrolis. Other than developing it for property, he's planning to build a hospital.

"Hah, I think it's the kid who wants to meet me. He used his grandfather's name!"

Charlie thought it made sense. "Then are we meeting him, Mr. Irwin?"

Rowan was silent.

"If we meet him, you might be able to formally meet Cordelia!"

The words went straight to Rowan's heart. If he got to meet Cordelia, would it mean that... he would get to see Xyla next?

His hands balled into fists, shaking slightly.
