“Oh… family? Fredric nodded with a cryptic smile.
Was Zephyr not the green-eyed monster who raged whenever Neil was mentioned previously?
Fredric was aware but said nothing, sipping wine on his own. He was a lawyer who had seen plenty, after all. How
would he be intimidated by just a few words from Zephyr?
Hence, he counterattacked and smiled at Zephyr. “Z, you’re cousins with Neil now, huh? I’d just like to remind you
that Southeast Aciatic is traditional and conservative. Many reputable major families make cousins get married to
secure their statuses.
“So, it’s not impossible for cousins to be together in Southeast Aciatic. It’s legal over there!”
Fredric emphasized the words ‘cousins’ and ‘legal’.
It was just unexpected that Zephyr did not take the bait.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man sank into the couch with his arm on the back of the couch. His other arm swirled the wine glass slowly
with a vague smile.
“I’ve heard about this.” Zephyr was cool as a cucumber.
Fredric paused. “What?”
“How could I not pay more mind to the customs and traditions of my wife’s hometown?”
“Z?”
Zephyr’s gaze was deep, and a teasing smile was on his sculpted face.
“Forget that I’ve already married Cordelia. Even if we hadn’t gotten married, it’d be impossible between Neil and
her.”
Josiah, who was usually slow and clueless, was the first to react and spat out his wine.
Right, the man’s father-in-law had already given him a strengthening tonic—how could others be a possible
husband candidate when Zephyr was this favored!?
Josiah laughed.
Fredric was puzzled. “Is Z… so confident?”
“Yes.” Josiah patted his shoulder with a smile. “Very confident!”
Zephyr jutted his chin a little with triumph.
Fredric was thinking of scaring him a little, only to be defeated by his immense pressure and exceptional
confidence. He had failed. He should have known that Zephyr had always been unfazed, no matter the situation.
It seemed that he had to come clean first if he wanted to pull anything out of Zephyr.
“Fine, I admit it.” Fredric sighed. “I did feel kind of strange when I saw Trinity’s photo with Neil.”
“What kind of strange?” Zephyr narrowed his eyes.
“It’s…” Fredric was unable to explain.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe men stayed quiet… until Josiah fired the shot.
“Fredric, it’s not that you feel strange. Trinity has spoiled you!”
Fredric was stunned.
Josiah actually felt quite bad for Trinity. He could see her feelings for Fredric back when they were in school, and he
knew that it must definitely be her who had left Fredric the love letter in the boys’ locker room.
He remembered that Trinity used to be a long-haired girly girl too, but she cut her hair short, put on boots, and
wore a biker jacket later, losing herself to become more like a boy.
She had done all these for Fredric, but the latter’s heart was never on her.
Josiah sighed. “Fredric, don’t you see it yet? Trinity was always around you in the past, but you never cared and only
focused on Michelle. Now that you’ve seen Michelle for who she is, yet Trinity doesn’t care about you anymore, you
feel disappointed! Am I right?”
The booth was pin-drop silent after he spoke.
A moment later, Nicholas and Robert clapped their hands the hardest they could to applaud Josiah.
