Cordelia subconsciously grabbed Zephyr’s arm and shot him a timid glance.

Zephyr looked indifferent as he stepped forward and said with a deep voice, “We don’t have enough

ingredients today and can’t serve so many people. You can come again tomorrow if you want coffee,

Mr. Thompson.”

“Dessert’s fine too if there’s no coffee!” Nicholas grabbed a cookie seeing there were some on the

table.

However, Zephyr kept the tray a step earlier and looked at him fiercely.

Nicholas paused before he tried to catch Zephyr’s hand with an aggressive and hostile gaze.

Zephyr was on his guard. With a tilt of his body, he pinned Nicholas’ wrist instead! Both of them were

caught in a stalemate, and the atmosphere felt tense.

The men in black around them were ready to strike as well.

Cordelia felt cold beads of sweat trickle down her back.

Nicholas launched a punch, which Zephyr caught. His expression was icy and cool, the sense of

pressure surprising Nicholas.

Zephyr emphasized each word. “Mr. Thompson, you can come to my boxing club if you want to train. I

can spar with you. But it’s my wife’s cafe opening today. You’d best not seek trouble. Otherwise, your

men might not rival me!”

Nicholas frowned, his gaze suddenly dropping on the back of Zephyr’s hand.

A patch of skin on the back of Marcus’ hand was burned, but the back of this man’s hand was clean

without a trace of being injured!

Nicholas bit his lips and slowly straightened up with his hands on his side.

Cordelia ran to Zephyr and looked at Nicholas warily.

“It must feel great to have a loving wife!” Nicholas sounded sarcastic. “Mrs. Grist, anyone’s better than

this guy here with your looks! I have plenty of young and promising men under me too. I could

introduce them to you.”

“You—”

Cordelia was angered and was going to say something, but Linda rushed forward and slapped the

man.

“Linda…”

“Get out.” Linda glared at the man. “Leave!”

The men in black got up, but Nicholas stopped them with a raise of a hand. He rubbed the side of his

face that was slapped and felt as if the throb went straight to his heart.

He smiled and looked at Linda, but there was a wash of grief in his eyes.

“Why have you become like this…” Linda’s voice was trembling. “Nicholas, take your people and leave

right now. Don’t disturb my friend again!”

Nicholas nodded and swiftly recovered his thuggish way.

He put on his sunglasses and waved, his underlings escorting him out of the porch. The Porsches at

the door started their engines and kicked up some dust.

As the cafe quieted down, everyone felt the lingering fear.

Zephyr gently hugged Cordelia in his arms while Cordelia looked at Linda in worry. The latter did not

look good. She was pale and needed the support of the table to stand. When Nicholas walked out of

the shop, it seemed like he had taken her soul away too.

Seth braved himself to hold her hand but was shocked by how cold she felt.

Cordelia went over to hug her and said softly next to her ear, “Linda, let me send you home first!”

Linda was quiet for a long time before she sobbed. “Sorry…”

Cordelia shook her head with a smile and tenderly tucked her hair for her. She then asked Zephyr to

take care of the customers in the cafe before she left with Linda.
