It was a year ago.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to go back to when it first started?” Cordelia said softly, “This time last year, it’s when

we got married.”

That was their first meeting. Cordelia had come to that small cabin in the pouring rain, her white wedding dress

stained with soil. The old folks in the village had said that people who got married in such weather would not end up

happy, but both of them were the happiest.

Zephyr was moved. He inched slowly toward the bed and saw Cordelia’s fair hand that was outside of the blanket.

He held it while Cordelia pulled it back but gave up the struggle when she could not fight the man’s strength,

allowing him to hold it.

Zephyr’s palm was warm and big, giving her an exceptional sense of security.

His husky voice came from the dark. “Since we’ve gone back to a year ago, let’s get to know each other again.

“I’m Zephyr Hamerton. So, my family’s kind of rich, but I’m not really ambitious. I just want to stay with my wife

and let her take care of me forever.

“Darling,” he said with an affectionate smile. “I don’t want to work. Take care of me when we’re back to Centrolis

too, okay?”

Cordelia was silent, but her eyes felt hot. She felt like crying, but the smile on her face bloomed like a ripple. A voice

in her had been shouting, ‘Okay! I’ll take care of you. I’ll take care of you even if you don’t go to work.

‘I’ll take care of you forever.’

Cordelia giggled as a drop of tear slid down her cheek.

…

Prior to their departure, Linda hugged Cordelia tightly, reluctant to let go.

Both of them had stuck to each other since they were school girls, their relationship closer than real sisters’. Now

that Cordelia was leaving, Linda felt empty. Her eyes were still red when they got to the airport.

“You’ve got to take good care of yourself when you’re there!” Linda held Cordelia’s hands and whispered in her ear,

“Don’t be afraid of troubling Zephyr. You were husband and wife for one year. And he looks like he can’t wait to do

things for you!”

“Mm, I know.” Cordelia chuckled. “You don’t have to worry about me!”

“How could I not!? Sigh, it’s futile telling you. You won’t go to Zephyr if something does happen anyway! Cordelia,

don’t be silly! He was lying to you for a year. He should do it even if he’s to get the moon and stars for you!”

Cordelia giggled and held Linda’s hands tightly, reluctance and longing in her eyes.

“You should be nicer to Nicholas too. You’ve been together for so long. It’s about time you consider marriage! I’ll

come back when you have your wedding!”

“Yes, yes, that’s right!” Nicholas heard it and ran to them. “See, Linda? I told you Cordelia’s the most sensible and

understanding! Heh!”

“When did you say that?” Linda looked at him with a disdainful frown.

“Uh… just now!” Nicholas grinned obsequiously and hugged Linda. “Sweetheart, I know you’re reluctant to part with

your best friend. I am, too. Why don’t you leave your job? Let’s move to Centrolis too!”

“What are you going to do there?” Linda chuckled. “Build your gang there? The ones in Centrolis will gobble you

up!”

“It’s actually a good idea.” Zephyr eyed Nicholas, and both of them went off to one side. Zephyr lowered his voice

to tell him, “Part of your businesses can be transferred to Centrolis and transformed into legal ones. I’ve informed

the relevant people in Centrolis. You can come at any time you want.”

“Really?” Nicholas’ eyes shone.

Zephyr nodded with a smile.

“But it can’t be hurried. The procedures are a lot. You have to do it step by step. Ask Frederic if you don’t

understand something. He’s a lawyer, so he’ll be able to give you the most appropriate solution.”

“Mm!” Nicholas shot him a grateful look.

Although they were often shooting jabs at each other, none of them slacked when it came to doing something for

each other at critical times.

Zephyr smiled and told him in a whisper, “Hide some personal cash if you can when your businesses all turn legal.”

“Hmm?” Nicholas furrowed his brows.

Zephyr patted him and spoke wisely. “So you will have the money for a pack of cigarettes!”

Nicholas’ face fell. That matter was not going to be forgotten, was it!?

Zephyr held back his laugh. “Don’t worry. I’ll keep it a secret for you. I won’t tell Linda, ever!”

“Zephyr Hamerton!” Nicholas said through gritted teeth, “Get your *ss on the plane. Scram!”
