“William Jenner, do you want to bet with me?” Zephyr smirked. “Even if you and Yelena die here today, you will be

just two more missing people in this city, and I won’t become a criminal.”

“You…”

“Consider who others have as support before you harass them!”

Zephyr’s presence was intimidating, and William could not help stumbling back. Yelena looked like she was not

going to make it as she flailed around.

Zephyr said darkly, “William Jenner, consider properly. Are you going to continue confronting me, or are you pissing

off with this brainless daughter of yours?”

William’s knees buckled. His voice was shaky when he spoke after a while. “Let go of my daughter… We leave right

now.”

“Leave?” Zephyr cracked a grin. “Do you not understand words now, Mr. Jenner? I said piss off!”

He loosened his hold, and Yelena fell to the floor with a plop, scrambling away.

William did not get anything but was humiliated. When he left, his limbs were not cooperating, and he crawled out

like a dog.

The house finally recovered its peace. Cordelia hurried to comfort her mother and made her lean against her with

an arm around her shoulders.

Xyla could not stop trembling as tears streamed down her pale face.

“Mom…” Cordelia brought the medicine over and fed her frantically.

“Where’s the box?” Xyla was frenzied. “Cordelia… Cordelia! The box! Where is it!?”

“Mom, don’t worry.” Cordelia held her hand. “It’s with me. I kept it well!”

“Don’t lose it!”

“I won’t, mom.”

“Cordelia, that’s what I’m leaving you and Carter with…” The calming medicine began to work, and Xyla quieted

down. Her consciousness slowly faded out, and her eyes fell shut.

After she fell asleep, Cordelia left the room, laden with thoughts. She looked up and met Zephyr’s deep eyes.

Cordelia looked at him gratefully and said, “Thank you.”

“Is ‘thank you’ still needed between us?” Zephyr sighed with a frown. “Why was William here?”

“I don’t know either.” Cordelia was still frightened thinking about it now.

If Zephyr had not come and if her mother’s illness relapsed, what should she do alone?

“He came in and asked… my mom to give something to him.”

“What is it?”

“Maybe what’s in the box.” Cordelia bit her lips. “Mom values that box very much, but it’s locked, and she has asked

me not to open it.”

Zephyr focused and vaguely recalled the box that was in their bedroom. When he saw the pattern on it back then,

he thought it was kind of familiar.

“Cordelia.” He held her hand.

Cordelia froze and wanted to struggle away, but he kept her hand tight in his hold, so she could not move.

Zephyr looked at her seriously.

“Cordelia, bring mom along and come to Centrolis with me.”

“What did you say?”

“Listen to me this time.” Zephyr was determined. “Whatever is in that box, since it’s something William wants, he’ll

come back for sure.

“But I don’t know if I’ll be around the next time.

“The best solution is for you, mom, and Carter to move to Centrolis together.” He smiled with a doting gaze. “Don’t

worry. I’ll protect all of you. And I have something very important to do after you arrive in Centrolis!”
