Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 947

The atmosphere between the father and his two sons was a bit cold... Toph could not help sneezing.

After a moment of silence, Zephyr said in a low voice, "Go get changed. We're going out later."

"Huh?" Zuko was surprised. "Dad, I still have extra tutoring..."

"I've already asked your teacher for a leave."

The little boy was a bit confused. "What could be more important than me going to class?"

"Zuko Hamerton!" Zephyr raised his voice. "Do what I tell you to do. Where did this nonsense come from!?"

"Oh..." Zuko shrank into himself silently.

Zephyr put his hands behind his back and walked away after giving them both a stern look.

Only after Zephyr was far away did Toph dare to stick his head out and ask his brother in a low voice, "What's wrong with dad today?"

"Sigh." Zuko shook his head. "Maybe he's annoyed about his pocket money!"

"That makes sense." Toph agreed with the statement. "Mom gives us more pocket money every month than she gives him!"

"Of course! We're mom's real sons!"

The two little guys smiled at each other and hurried upstairs to change their clothes.

It was not until they arrived at their destination that Zuko realized that their father's bad temper today was not because he was annoyed about his pocket money but because he was envious...

He was envious that Nicholas had just had a daughter, while his wish to have a daughter was nowhere near being fulfilled!

"Congratulations!"

Nicholas' daughter's party was a grand affair. All the famous names in Centrolis were in attendance, and Nicholas went around greeting them.

After Zephyr had two drinks with him, they both went to entertain the guests together, planning to go to the baby's room after they were done to see the baby.

"Heh, I don't want to have any more. It's already too stressful!"

Cordelia sensed that something was off with Linda's expression and cautiously sat down next to her. "What's wrong?"

Linda was feeling frustrated. Maybe it was because she had just given birth, and her hormones had yet to return to normal levels. She would occasionally have wild thoughts and get stuck on small details.

Cordelia knew that well. Fortunately, Zephyr had been tolerant and considerate toward her during that time and helped her through the most difficult days.

Nicholas was also doting on Linda, almost treating her like a princess.

Cordelia patted Linda's shoulder and laughed lightly. "Linda, think more about Nicholas' strengths! How can there be grudges between husband and wife?"

"I'm not holding a grudge against him. It's just..." Linda sighed softly. "You have no idea. His family has some really intolerable relatives!"

"Huh?" Cordelia was surprised. She had always thought that Nicholas had no family left.
