“Okay, stop it!”
Cordelia rejected softly. Her arms wrapped him.
Zephyr smiled and gave a long kiss on her neck, pressing down the burning desire that was surging
inside of him.
He knew she was a conservative lady. She could not do it anywhere else other than their own
bedroom.
It seemed he would have to make her get used to it.
“What are you thinking about, hubby?”
Zephyr snapped back his senses. He smiled at her after licking his dry lips.
“Do you feel much better now?”
“Mm-hmm!”
He said, “Wifey, what are you going to do about the shares?”
She bit her lip, not knowing how to tell him.

if you don’t want them. No need to struggle with it.”
“They’re worth nothing?” Cordelia laughed out loud. “You’re speaking as if you’re rich! You don’t even
care about the shares that are “worth nothing” now!”
Zephyr chuckled and said nothing.
Cordelia’s voice was coquettish as she drowned in his embrace. “Actually, I didn’t see him for the
shares. I was only using the agreement to return the shares to test him.”
“Test him?”
“Don’t you think my dad’s being weird?” She had been calling him “dad” for over 20 years, and she had
yet to adjust.
“He knew that I’m not his daughter, yet he gave me the shares. Why is that?
“Also, I recalled the past carefully. Although he didn’t give me much love, he paid for school and my
daily necessities. He also paid for Carter.”
He lifted her eyes to look at him. “Hubby, looking at this as a man, would you do this to children that are
not related to you?”
Zephyr’s eyes dimmed. He responded a moment later. “I will if I love the children’s mother.”
Cordelia scoffed, “Does he really have feelings for my mom? I don’t buy it.”
Why would he force her if he really loved her?
And why would he be so cruel to have only given some money and neglected the rest?
Therefore, there must be something else going on.
“Okay, stop thinking about it.” Zephyr patted her back softly. “Don’t ask your mom. We can’t control the
grudge that was formed in the past generation. If you’re still worried, just have your guard up against
William from now on.”
“Okay.” Cordelia chuckled.
She felt much better now after speaking to him.
She checked the time and was surprised to find out that it was almost 1:00 p.m.

Zephyr looked at the cabinet in the bedroom.
He walked over quietly and opened the door. He knew their marriage certificate was in the drawer that
was locked.
However, he had no idea where Cordelia kept the key.
He looked around and flipped through the pillows and other drawers. He could not find the key, but he
found a small rosewood box sitting quietly in the corner.
He was stunned.
He looked at the box in silence. He suddenly thought the patterns on it looked familiar. He seemed to
have seen it somewhere before…
“Hubby!” Cordelia’s voice came. “Come eat!”
Zephyr closed the cabinet immediately.
She made two simple dishes. She looked at her phone while eating and then smiled.
He was curious. “What happened that made you so happy?”
She showed him the account on her phone.
It turned out the cafe had made quite some profit in the past two months.
