Journey Of Me And My Seven Sisters

Cordelia was absolutely petrified and humiliated. After Emrys helped her gallantly, Cordelia had come

to view him in an entirely different light. She was no longer averse to the idea of becoming friends with

him even though he wasn’t her little brother. That was why she had talked to him. Never in her wildest

dreams did she know he’d do this to her. She felt as if she had escaped from a pack of wolves but

ended up in the tiger’s den. Cordelia struggled to free herself, but she stopped in shock at the sight

displayed before her. Emrys had a secret. There was a birthmark shaped like a bolt of purple lightning

on his inner thigh. Everyone in the orphanage knew about it, including his seven sisters. Upon seeing

the bolt of purple lightning, Cordelia immediately knew that the young man was none other than Emrys,

whom she had last met fifteen years ago. “I can’t believe it’s you, Rys! I thought I’d never see you

again!” Cordelia leaped to her feet and flung her arms around Emrys, her b*dy shaking with emotion as

tears streamed down her cheeks. Emrys’ nose stung, too. Nothing has changed. Delia is still the same

person. Fifteen years later, we’re still as close as ever instead of growing distant. Feeling touched,

Emrys swore to do his best to protect her. Something doesn’t feel right. Soon, Emrys realized what was

wrong. He chuckled bitterly and said, “Delia, let me put on my pants.” Cordelia’s cheeks flushed red as

she shot him a glare. “Why are you shy? It’s not like I haven’t seen you n*ked before.” “Delia, there’s

someone else here,” Emrys reminded her. “Oh!” Cordelia belatedly realized that they weren’t alone.

She hurriedly ran over to check on Simon and discovered he was still unconscious. Only then did she

heave a sigh of relief. Simon was completely oblivious to the fact that he had missed out on a priceless

scene. The engine of the Porsche 911 roared to life again. This time, Emrys was the driver, while

Cordelia occupied the passenger seat. It had been years since they last met, so they naturally had a lot

to talk about. Cordelia was filled with a burning curiosity to discover how Emrys had managed to

escape the fire and where he had been for the last fifteen years. Emrys recounted his past to her but

didn’t mention anything about spending five years at war. Instead, he told her he had spent the last

fifteen years cultivating with the elderly friar on the mountain. After listening to his story, Cordelia gave

him a look. “Are you telling me a fairytale?” Naturally, she refused to believe his story, as it sounded

ridiculous. Despite his best efforts, he could do nothing to convince Cordelia and was left feeling

deflated. Fortunately, Cordelia didn’t press on. She said excitedly, “I wonder how the other ladies will

feel when they discover that you’re still alive and have grown into a handsome young lad.” Emrys

chuckled. “Keep this a secret from them. I want to surprise them one by one.” “What a naughty boy,”

Cordelia said as a knowing smile flitted across her lips. Time flew by quickly as they chatted nonstop.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at Cordelia Group. Everyone was astonished to see the two of

them entering the Cordelia Group building while cheerfully conversing with each other. They had never

seen the ice queen being that intimate with another man. It was a heartbreaking sight. Countless

people were destined to have sleepless nights ahead of them. The first thing Cordelia did after

returning to her office was to fire Zachary, the HR manager. She never beat around the bush. That was

how decisive she was. The position of HR manager was now vacant. Cordelia gave Emrys a wink and

asked, “Emrys, are you interested in becoming a manager? It will be fun!” Emrys chuckled bitterly and

shook his head. “No, thank you. I know nothing about managing a company.” Despite being Sky

Devourer Lord, who was in charge of Thirty-six Sky Generals, he knew it was different from managing

a company. One would only need to be exceptionally strong to manage Sky Devourer, but managing a

company was different, as it involved various rules and systems. Emrys wasn’t good at that. Cordelia

said, “It’s fine. You’re just the manager in name. If you need help, just let Angelina know.” Angelina

Gardner was Cordelia’s secretary. They were close to each other. In the office, they were professional

and respectful, but outside of work, they were practically inseparable friends. Hearing that, Emrys had

no choice but to agree. After all, he could move on anytime if the job wasn’t to his liking. They were

chatting when Angelina came into the office. Angelina was a stunning woman in her mid-twenties. She

entered the room with her sophisticated, business-casual outfit emphasizing her curvy shape. Her legs

were tastefully covered in sheer black stockings, and her pink sunglasses were the perfect accessory

to cover the mole at the corner of her eye. Angelina was a gorgeous lady, and her looks were second

to Cordelia in the company. However, Emrys merely glanced at her briefly before looking away. To him,

no lady was comparable to his seven sisters. “Come in, Angelina. Let me introduce you to someone,”

Cordelia said happily. “This is my younger brother, Emrys Lund. I was thinking he could be the new HR

manager. What do you think?” Angelina glanced at Emrys with a thoughtful look on her face. A while

ago, Angelina had heard her colleagues gossiping about their CEO bringing a pretty boy to her office.

Naturally, she had been skeptical of what she had heard. Cordelia was discerning and selective, so she

refused to believe that she had actually succumbed to a romantic attachment. It looks like she has

succumbed to her desires. “Ms. Youngblood, I don’t know if I should say this.” They might be best

friends, but Angelina would always address Cordelia as “Ms. Youngblood” at work. Cordelia replied

cheerfully, “We’re all friends here, so go ahead!” Angelina pushed her glasses further up the bridge of

her nose and spoke firmly. “I believe it’s in the company’s best interest to maintain the vacancy in the

upper management, specifically the HR manager. After all, we are in the process of becoming publicly

listed. Taking on Mr. Lund in this role may be unwise, so I suggest we reconsider this decision.” “Oh?

How so?” Angelina pondered over her question before eventually answering, “Reputation.” “Do you

also think that Emrys is my toy boy?” Cordelia was smart enough to realize what she meant. “I’m not

alone. That’s what everyone thought.” The company was about to get listed, so the company’s

reputation would suffer if word got out that Cordelia had fired a seasoned employee just to let her toy

boy take over the position. Cordelia knew that, but instead of offering any further explanation, she

simply waved her hand in a dismissive gesture. “I have decided. Emrys is going to be our HR manager

from this day forward. Angelina, why don’t you take him around?”
