“I just want to talk to you.” Nelly looked at her.

Cordelia kept a distance from her and scanned the room out of the corner of her eye to see if there was anything

she could defend herself with.

“Ms. Jenner, I know that I’ll never compare to you in Zephyr’s heart,” Nelly said softly. “But our marriage is fixed by

grandpa. The Tanners and the Hamertons have known each other for generations too. This isn’t a relationship he

can just cut off!”

“I’ve heard this many times,” replied Cordelia. “Ms. Tanner, I’d also like to tell you that some things aren’t meant to

be. Some people won’t change their mind because your families have known each other for so long, either.”

“I understand.” Nelly kept her eyes on Cordelia. “I’ve actually given up. Since Zephyr doesn’t belong to me, I might

as well let go of him. He’ll be much happier being with you too.

“But what I want to tell you is that you’d better deserve him.”

Cordelia’s heart squeezed.

“Hah, to be honest with you, I’ve grown used to events like today, so I feel at ease in one. I know that Zephyr

doesn’t like having press around, so I didn’t arrange for any media to come in today.

“Zephyr and I will be talking to business partners from Feranche in a while later.” Nelly smiled. “Ms. Jenner, you’ll be

awkward standing at the side when we talk, won’t you? After all, you won’t understand what we say.”

Cordelia bit her lips and stayed quiet.

“You don’t have a family background that matches Zephyr’s nor the knowledge and ability that parallels his. Even

when you get married in the future, how far can you go?

“Zephyr only feels the ty with you. When the disparity between you two grows bigger, will he still feel the

same about you?

Nelly felt more triumphant, seeing that Cordelia remained silent. “Heh, Ms. Jenner, I’m saying these for your sake.

You should pick up more things. It’s the most important to be on par with Zephyr, right?

“Learn more things and make more money, so you save up some… Hah, but I guess no matter how much you

save, the Hamertons won’t be bothered. After all, they’ve seen too much good stuff.

“Right, you can keep something cheap. Maybe they haven’t seen anything cheap and take it as a gem instead? Just

like how Zephyr’s never seen a woman like you, that’s why he coddles you. It’s the same logic!”

Cordelia took a deep breath.

The room was quiet like it had turned into a soundless space.

She looked up and met Nelly’s mocking gaze, her bright eyes brimming with fearlessness and nonchalance.

“Ms. Tanner, are you thirsty after saying so much?” She chuckled.

Nelly furrowed her brows.

“Everything you say is right!” Cordelia replied unhurriedly, “But you don’t have to worry about what I save for the

marriage. Zephyr’s got it all prepared for me.”

Nelly looked appalled.

“You’ve heard about Le Esse, right? It’s a bangle.” Cordelia smiled. “There’s also Le Fari. It’s an emerald ring. It’s

said that the king bestowed it when his family ancestor was a concubine.”

“What?” Nelly widened her eyes.

“Why? You haven’t heard of it?” Cordelia acted like realization had just dawned on her. “Ah, that’s right! Zephyr had

been keeping them personally before he passed me the jewelry. How could you possibly have seen them!?”

Nelly looked at her and gnashed her teeth.

“But you’re right, Ms. Tanner. I should really improve myself. After all, the future matriarch of the Hamertons can’t

lack in talent or knowledge!”

“You!” Nelly choked. “That’s a bold claim from you to call yourself the matriarch!”

“It’s correct!” Cordelia blinked. “All Zephyr’s cards are currently with me. His money is under my care too. Will you

be the matriarch if I’m not?”
