Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

When Marcus opened the door, he was greeted by the sight of Cordelia coming out of the kitchen with two plates.

She originally had worry etched on her face, but she swapped it for a smile the moment she saw him. Unfortunately, the smile looked a bit forced.
