“Sleep? Okay!” he answered with a smile. “I’ll sleep with you.”
“Zephyr!” Cordelia huffed at him. “I mean actual sleep, not what you’re thinking…”
“What am I thinking?”
Cordelia stayed quiet. She got tricked by him again.
Zephyr kept an arm around her slim waist.
When a few guys walked past them, he raised his glass with a smile. The action blocked Cordelia just nicely.
Robert continued to sigh as he deeply realized that it was a mistake staying around the two of them! He wondered
if he could negotiate with his boss to add another employee benefit—“Girlfriend included”?
‘Sigh…’
A rose-red figure walked over with a champagne flute from afar.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZephyr was going to leave, but Cordelia tugged him and gave him a look.
It was just Nelly. It was not like she was some monster…
Cordelia pursed her lips and entered battle mode instantly.
“Ms. Tanner!” She greeted her with a radiant smile.
“Oh, you’re here too, Ms. Jenner!” Nelly tipped her chin, maintaining surface courtesy.
Zephyr did not want to talk to Nelly, so he told Cordelia in a low voice, “I have a few friends over there. I’ll introduce
them to you.”
“Hey, Zephyr!” Nelly approached him. “Since I ran into you, I have something to discuss with you. It’s about the
western suburbs project.”
“What?” Zephyr looked at her coldly.
“Everything’s considered smooth since the project started. There are just two companies that think it’s taking too
long. They can’t afford to spend that duration and want to pull out.”
“It’s nothing big,” he replied indifferently. “As long as the procedures match the agreement, we won’t stop them
from pulling out.”
Nelly hummed softly. “But the project might be delayed because of this. To prevent this, I recommended another
two companies. The name list and information have been sent to your email. Take a look!”
“Alright.”
“Zephyr!” Nelly looked at him. “The auction hasn’t started yet anyway. Take a look at it first. We can discuss that
too, right?”
She intentionally emphasized “we” to rub it in Cordelia’s face. Even if she could not have Zephyr, she would not let
Cordelia live easily, either!
Zephyr glanced at her with his hand still around Cordelia. “Changing the partnering companies can only be decided
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmafter it’s reported to the boss.”
“The boss?” The words surprised Nelly.
“Yes.” Zephyr’s expression was cool as he answered, “The main person in charge of the entire western suburbs
project!”
“But… you got the plot of land, and you’re in charge!”
“No.” He smiled. “The boss is my wife.”
Cordelia jolted but soon thought it was a lie he made to deceive Nelly. He just did not want to be entangled with her.
She smiled and could not help snuggling with him.
Nelly gnashed her teeth and thought that he was joking. She took an icy glance at Cordelia and said softly, “Zephyr,
Ms. Jenner doesn’t seem to understand business talks much.”
“I’ll draft the analysis report in particular. She just has to understand the report.”
“This isn’t child’s play!” Nelly was appalled. “Are you really going to let her decide?”
“What else?” Zephyr smirked with mockery in his eyes.
“Hah, I didn’t expect Mr. Z Hamerton to listen to women so well!”
“Not exactly,” Zephyr said with a chortle. “You’re also a woman, but I’ve never listened to you!”
