Zephyr did not say anything. He had wanted to shoulder this alone, but when he thought about how he had almost
lost her because he had said nothing, he decided he was not going to be a fool twice.
He smiled and hugged her lightly. “I was informed that William Jenner’s currently in Centrolis.”
The person in his arms clearly went stiff. Zephyr hugged her tighter.
“Jenner’s company has gone bankrupt, and Yelena has become Yale’s plaything…” he explained to her. “William
Jenner’s in desperate need of money. It’s well within reason that he’s in Centrolis to rely on his daughter.”
“He isn’t just depending on his daughter.” Cordelia’s voice was calm. “I don’t think he’ll let me go.”
Zephyr ran his hand through her long hair. He could not help smiling as he looked at her soft but resolute face.
He remembered that he had assumed she must have a soft and weak character when they had first met, but she
had turned out to be much tougher than he had imagined.
That was why he did not shy away from telling her the truth. “I think he won’t just come for you. He’ll go after your
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmom too. I remember him going to your house once in Jangasas.
“But don’t worry, I have people set around mom’s place. I won’t let William Jenner get close to her!”
Cordelia looked up at him with a sweet smile. No matter what, he would always make sure things were properly
taken care of.
“Why are you looking at me like this?” Zephyr smiled.
Cordelia replied sincerely, “Thank you, darling…”
“Is this still required between us?”
Cordelia chortled and said nothing, feeling warmth gush in her.
“If you really want to thank me…” Zephyr said huskily next to her ear, “Give me more allowance from now on!”
Cordelia blushed, her wrist caught when she tried to push him away. The man pinned her down on the couch.
It was a winter morning, but the room was radiant from hot passion.
…
The two of them only got to the manor when it was almost noon.
Liam came to welcome them personally and could not help grinning once he saw Zephyr and Cordelia, repeatedly
mumbling, “My granddaughter’s back! My dear granddaughter’s back!”
Cordelia went over to hook arms with the old man with a beam, and the two of them went in happily, as if they had
completely forgotten that Zephyr was there too.
The servants around them ducked their heads swiftly. It was so hard to hold their laughter in.
Zephyr scanned the place around him and his gaze darkened. He coughed and caught up with brisk steps.
Liam called all the chefs at home in the hall.
The Michelin-star chefs stood on both sides, all looking at Cordelia in anticipation, hoping to be picked.
Cordelia was puzzled. “Grandpa?”
“What cuisine would you like to have today?” Liam asked with a grin.
Cordelia winced, looking at the chefs of different ethnicities and nationalities. There were chefs from Chaiseland,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFeranche, Etalia, Ilbon, Taeguk, Asperia… Liam had basically gotten all the cuisines in the whole world into his
house.
Cordelia had trouble deciding what to eat.
While she mulled over the options, Zephyr had gone through the menu and placed it on the servant’s tray
gracefully.
“Grandpa, I’d like to have sushi—”
Before he could finish, Liam looked at him impatiently. “I didn’t ask you!”
“…”
Liam then looked at Cordelia lovingly. “Cordelia, what do you want?”
Cordelia giggled. “Let’s have sushi.”
“Hey, you don’t have to listen to this kid! Just let me know what you want!” Liam straightened up and explained
seriously, “Don’t worry. I hired these chefs with my own money. Didn’t use the family’s money. It won’t affect your
revolutionary plan at all!”
Zephyr looked at him speechlessly and scoffed.
