“A private jet from Centrolis will come to pick us up when we’re at the airport.” Neil then added, “I still have work in
Centrolis, so you’ll have to stay with me for the time being. But it’s easier in Centrolis. You can stay with the
Hamertons, even though you don’t have an immigration status there…”
“I’ll have to trouble Cordelia again?”
“If you feel bad about it, help her babysit.”
Aurelia smiled and pulled the blanket up herself, falling asleep in a while.
Neil looked at her sleeping profile quietly, unable to help himself from stroking her long, chestnut hair.
The girl had not taken a shower in days, and her hair was knotted. She also had patches of dirt on her face. She
looked pitiful.
He recalled the moment he saw her on the deck. She was like a weak, helpless stray kitten with fear of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtunknown in her eyes. It was just that this kitten did not belong in his world, after all.
…
Cordelia returned to Centrolis with Zephyr after she recovered from her labor.
Baby Zuko became everyone’s favorite.
First, he received five big chests of gold from his great-grandfather, Liam. Then, it was his first-month party, where
all the wealthy families that wanted to pander to the Hamertons gifted all sorts of expensive and rare presents, a
contest among themselves both discreetly and in the open. Next were the Hamerton relatives who turned fortune
tellers in the blink of an eye, all of them reading success, prosperity, good luck, and more from a little baby…
It finally came to the day they would meet Josiah and the others.
Cordelia and Zephyr dashed out of Hamerton Manor with their son early in the morning. Both of them had cramped
faces from smiling so much in socializing these days, and they needed a breather.
The attendance was full at the gathering.
Josiah and Nicholas gave monetary gifts each and were despised by Zephyr. “Old-fashioned!”
“Come on, forgive them!” Linda grinned, her gold earrings, necklace, and bangles clinking loudly. “Don’t you see?
These are what Nicholas gave me for our anniversaries and stuff too!”
Nicholas scratched his head with a silly grin. Gold was the most valuable, and monetary gifts were the most
practical to him. Gold and green were great!
As for Josiah, he defended himself, “Z, birds of a feather flock together. I spent too much time around Nicholas, so I
definitely got the old fashion from him!”
“Repeat yourself, Bayer?”
Nicholas raised a brow, and Josiah was quick to hide, afraid that the former would snatch his bank card.
“Cordelia, this is from me!” Linda was excited as she put on a cute little gold pendant that she had specifically asked
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsomeone to design for Zuko.
Zuko’s eyes were big as he looked around without fussing. With how plump he was, he looked absolutely endearing.
“Aww, I love him so much!” Linda could not help it. “Can I carry him? So I get some baby luck!”
Cordelia passed Zuko to her with a smile. Linda carried him for a while, thrilled to discover the baby smiling at her.
Kelly wanted to carry the baby too but dared not do anything, afraid she would pass her illnesses and hospital
viruses to him.
Cordelia let her hold the baby’s hand.
This was Kelly’s first time coming in contact with a baby. The flexibility and suppleness of a baby surprised her, and
the more she looked at the baby, the more she liked it.
“What do you think?” Josiah smiled crouching in front of her. “If you like one, we can make a team next time!”
Kelly whined and glared at him, asking him to shut up.
“Sorry we’re late!” A sweet voice rang at the door.
Zennie skipped inside, with Seth following her. Both of them presented their gift the moment they came.
“Zephyr, we got this for my little nephew!”
Zephyr froze. ‘This thick stack of papers… Are these years’ worth of mock exam papers!?’
