In spite of it, Nelly kept a tight grip on her. Cordelia was anxious and grabbed her wrist to push her away.

While they jostled, a vicious look suddenly flashed across Nelly’s eyes. She gnashed her teeth and let go of Cordelia.

She then slapped herself a few times harshly!

Cordelia was stunned. She did not expect this at all.

Nelly’s cheeks were red and swollen. After that, she ran to the door screaming like she had lost her mind.

“Help! Somebody! Cordelia’s going to kill me!”

She screamed as she ran out to press the alarm, prompting the manager, servers, and security to rush up the

fastest they could.

Soon, the people in the banquet hall heard the alarm as well and ran upstairs.

Nelly disheveled her own hair and stood at the door frantically. When she caught Zephyr in the crowd out of the

corner of her eye, she ran to him crying.

“Zephyr… Zephyr, I was chatting with Ms. Cordelia just now, and I don’t know what I said that offended her… She

started hitting me!”

Zephyr pushed her away with a straight face and a cold glint in his eyes.

The marks on Nelly’s face were clearly visible. There were even fingerprints. Both her cheeks were swollen.

The guests commented in whispers upon seeing how unsightly she was. At the same time, they looked at Cordelia.

Zephyr was also the most worried about Cordelia. He weaved through the crowd to get to her and held her petite

shoulder tightly with a large hand, pressing his warm chest against her.

Cordelia smiled at him with a composed expression.

“I know that you wouldn’t hit her,” he whispered in her ear. “But this is… a little tricky.

Cordelia saw a few elderly-looking people comforting Nelly and thought that they must be from the Tanners. The

few of them were condescending as they looked at Zephyr sternly.

“Mr. Zephyr.” One of the elders spoke up. “Whatever relationship you have with this lady here, she hit Nelly. That

means she’s hit the Tanners! I think you won’t just let it slide, right?”

Zephyr’s smile did not reach his eyes. “How do you want me to handle this, sir?”

“How else?” Another woman said angrily, “Let us hit her back since she has hit our Nelly! She has to take as many

slaps as Nelly has taken! That’s only fair!”

Zephyr took a step forward, his tall build shielding Cordelia completely. His authoritative presence gave off enough

pressure that silenced the Tanners.

“You hit me once, and I hit you back once… Hah, do you think this is child’s play, madam?”

His deep voice was commanding. “The cause and effect of the matter haven’t been cleared up, and a conclusion is

made so recklessly?”

“Our Nelly’s got hit to this point. How much clearer do you want it to be!?”

“Yeah! Ms. Cordelia, here next to you, has always seen Nelly as an eyesore. It’s not surprising that she would do

this!”

The elder’s gaze was strict. “ Mr. Zephyr, if you can’t make a decision, I’m afraid I’ll have to disturb Elder Mr.

Hamerton tonight!”

“Everyone.” A soft voice interrupted the commotion suddenly. “Do you all really think I’ve hit Ms. Tanner?”

Cordelia stepped up with a smile, composed and gracious.

Zephyr jolted and was going to hold her hand to stop her from interfering, but she shook her head at him.

“I’ll be responsible for what I did,” Cordelia said clearly. “Since you think I hit her, don’t ask Zephyr to be responsible

for it. Isn’t it better to come to me directly?”
