Zephyr was speechless. He slowly shifted there and looked back at her with each step he took, hoping
his wife would take back her order.
Despite that, Cordelia kept up an encouraging gaze and smile, putting him in a dilemma.
Ultimately, he gnashed his teeth with his mind made up and went to Zennie and the others.
The group was chatting merrily and was surprised when they looked up at him.
“M-Mr. Grist…” Linda was the first to notice that something was wrong and probed. “What is it?”
Zephyr looked tense and stern, standing straight and frozen for a few seconds… before he suddenly
flashed his pearly whites!
The others widened their eyes and fell back, staring at him in disbelief. A few quiet seconds ticked past,
and boisterous peals of laughter erupted in the small cafe.
Cordelia rushed over upon hearing the noise and was greeted by the group’s guffawing. Zennie and
Fredric almost fell off their chairs too! She then looked at her husband… The corners of his lips slowly

Cordelia grimaced. He had already looked terrifying but felt even scarier when he smiled. It seemed
that this man was really not cut for the service industry.
“Alright, stop laughing!” Cordelia hooked arms with Zephyr. She feared his pride would get hurt and
tried to salvage some of “My husband just looks cold but has a warm heart. He was amazing just now!
Besides, there’s an adaptation process to everything!
Her gaze was warm. “Darling, you smiled really nicely just now! Just keep working on it!”
Zephyr was stunned and tightened his hold on the girl’s hand.
Linda got up to put both her hands on Cordelia’s shoulders. “Yeah, your superman husband can do
everything! He’s the guardian treasure of the cafe!”
“Of course!” Cordelia looked at the man next to her admiringly. “Our business will only get better with
my husband here!”
“Mn!” Seth stood up. “Your life will get better too!”
“Yeah!” Linda beamed. “Since your life’s improving, should you two consider adding a new member to
the family?”
“Linda…” Cordelia blushed.
“What’s there to be embarrassed about? This is huge. When are you going to execute it? Heh, I’m
waiting to be a godmother!”
Seth cried impatiently, “Then I’m going to be the godfather!”
Fredric protested, “What about me?”
“Why don’t… they give birth to a few more so we get a kid each?”
“Hahaha…”
The cafe was filled with merry laughter. The atmosphere felt just right.
In spite of it, a few black Porsches suddenly stopped in front of the shop. A group of men in black came
down, holding flower baskets with blank faces. They put the flowers on the porch and stood on both
sides with solemn expressions.

Everyone in the cafe was shocked.
Zephyr frowned and put Cordelia behind him instantly, watching the outside in alertness.
“This place seems decent!”
Nicholas strolled in with a smirk.
He looked around leisurely and picked a table to sit down and cross his legs.
Linda kept a close look on him, shaking, but she did not know that the eyes behind the sunglasses
were also watching her.
Nicholas’ smile froze for a split second before he took a deep breath and got up to go to Zephyr. He
patted the latter’s shoulder arrogantly.
Zephyr avoided to the side and flicked his hand off with a cold gaze.
“Hah, Marcus, we were bros!” Nicholas scoffed. “Why didn’t you ask me to congratulate you on such a
significant grand opening?”
