"Isn't it great being young?"
"They're all a bunch of kids." Zephyr looked at his wife with an indulgent gaze. "Our age is better!"
"I'm really grateful that I've had you by my side throughout these years." Cordelia held his hand, gently leaning on
his shoulder. "Now that Zuko and Pammy have found happiness, we just need a grandchild!"
"Well... I want a granddaughter."
Having a grandson would be nice, but Zephyr especially wanted a cute little granddaughter. He could imagine
himself and Cordelia taking their well-dressed granddaughter, who looked like a princess, out in public. They would
surely be the most fashionable grandparents!
"Alright, a granddaughter!" Cordelia looked at him helplessly, then furrowed her brow slightly. "Even Chris and Lena
are together now, but Toph..."
"What about Toph?"
Cordelia hesitated and muttered, "Don't you think there's something off about Toph's recent relationship? It feels a
bit stifling."
"You mean..." Zephyr had noticed it too, but maybe because he was older, he didn't want to think negatively.

mother passed away, she's been caught in her own turmoil. If things continue like this, I'm afraid Toph might
suffer!"
Zephyr looked at her silently.
Cordelia pursed her lips and asked softly, "Darling, am I selfish? I only think about our child..."
"Silly goose, that's a mother's instinct!" Zephyr embraced her, gently caressing her shoulder. "It's just that Renee's
life has been so rocky. If we mistreat her, it won't be right.
"But we can't let her hurt our child just because of her difficult background." Zephyr's gaze was deep. "We'll have to
talk to Nicholas and Linda about this."

Cordelia's birthday party was grand yet warm. Besides the massive aerial projection, Zephyr also gave her an
invaluable ruby.
Cordelia disliked extravagance, so she only invited close friends and family to the event, those with whom she
regularly stayed in touch.
In the past, gatherings were lively with friends and family, each bringing their young children. But now, those
children had grown up, and the friends and family had reached middle age. These gatherings had transformed into
occasions for reminiscing about the past and discussing life.
The party became the younger generation's turf.
Zuko and Lina became the mainstays of the family, courteously receiving and entertaining the guests on behalf of
Cordelia and Zephyr.
Toph was still the life of the party, mingling and laughing among his friends as he moved through the crowd, holding
Renee's hand.
On the other side...
Lena had not wanted to attend but could not resist Chris' persistent persuasion. Her presence immediately
attracted many curious gazes.
Everyone was talking animatedly about the heroine who had once saved Janine. They did not expect her to be such
a beauty. What was even more unexpected was that she managed to win over the oblivious Chris!
Lena walked with her head down, feeling embarrassed under the scrutiny.
Chris held her hand, beaming with pride as he greeted people left and right, ensuring everyone knew she was his
girlfriend.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Lena!" Arya exclaimed, approaching with a radiant smile and a glass of champagne in hand. "You're wearing that
outfit today? I mentioned the other day how great this light blue color looks on you, especially with your fair
complexion!"
Lena politely nodded at her with a smile.
"Oh? Why are your hands empty again?" Arya glanced at her, then immediately had someone fetch her own white
handbag.
"No, Ms. Bayer, how could I—"
"There's no need to be so polite!" Arya handed her the handbag. "This outfit looks great with this bag!"
Lena wanted to decline, but Arya pouted, pretending to be upset. "You don't have to feel bad about it! I love seeing
beautiful things paired with beautiful people! Since this bag suits you so well, you should take it! After all, I doubt
even Chris could find something so suitable."
"That's right." Chris grinned. "Arya is one of us. No need to be so polite!"
Lena's heart warmed. She looked at Arya and accepted the offer. She would remember this favor, reminding
herself to repay it double-fold in the future.
Not far away, Toph was chatting with friends, and Renee was by his side.
Suddenly, Renee turned and saw the bag in Lena's hand. She was surprised and quickly moved her handbag out of
sight.
These two bags were actually the same!
