“Zephyr!”
Yale widened his eyes as he watched Zephyr leave just like that. He did not want to yield.
“Cousin…” Zephyr stopped and tilted his head slightly, not sure if he was smiling. “Grandpa told me to
have priorities, that I shouldn’t fight you for a woman.
“I thought he was right, so…” He turned his head to look at Yale, his eyes cold. “Have fun!”
Yale was stunned.
Wait, was he not ready to fight until death just now? He almost strangled him to death, and now he left
just like that!?
He grabbed the shotgun quickly!
Just when he was going to cock the gun, Zephyr beat him to it. He turned around and pointed his pistol
to his head.
He smirked. “Cousin, I’ve already told you and your father to never pull tricks behind my back, or I
won’t show mercy! Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten about it?”
Yale’s face turned pale. He dropped the shotgun and looked at him blankly.
Zephyr glared at him with mockery. A scream came from behind just when he was stepping out of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdoor.
“Marcus!”
Yelena ran toward him, ignoring everything else. She accidentally stepped on the blanket and fell hard
onto the floor. Ignoring the pain, she crawled to him.
“Marcus… Save me!”
Zephyr looked at her with disgust.
“Marcus!” she screamed in devastation, but he did not stay for her.
Watching that man disappear to the end of the corridor, she was as desperate as the blurred and
endless night.
The noise of Yale playing with the shotgun was loud and clear in the quiet room.
Yelena curled up in the corner of the wall instinctively. She was shaking.
“Hah, he’s not Marcus. He’s the Hamertons’ third son, Zephyr.” Yale scoffed. “Baby, you’re meeting all
of the bigshots today!”
She looked at him in fear. He squatted before her, pinching her chin with two fingers.
“That brat sure is fast to change. He’s giving his wife away just like that?
“Or…” Yale suddenly came to his senses. “You’re not actually his wife?”
The man’s face became distorted and ferocious. Yelena was shaking, her face pale from fear.
Yale slapped her. “B*tch! How dare you lie to me? Who exactly are you?”
She was seeing stars. There was blood dripping at the corner of her lips. She begged as she knelt on
the floor.
“I’m sorry, sir… I’m not Cordelia. I-I admire you. That’s why I—”
“Where’s Cordelia?”
“She…” Yelena looked away. “She doesn’t want to come at all. She said she despises wealthy men like
you the most!”
Yale’s face turned even grimmer now.
Yelena said slowly, “Sir, Cordelia loves to pretend to be virtuous! Seems like she doesn’t know Mr. Z’s
identity. Judging by what I know about her, she’ll reject him as soon as she finds out who he really is,
as she has to maintain her virtuous image!
“So, I’m sure you know who will be devastated by then.”
Yale glanced at her and smirked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough this woman was not smart, she knew what to say to make him happy.
Judging by Zephyr’s stance of wanting to kill, he could tell how important Cordelia was to him.
“Sir, I’m willing to serve you!” Yelena showed her loyalty instantly. “I’ll do anything you order me to!”
“Hah, really?”
Yale smirked coldly. He glided the back of his hand on her face and patted her naked shoulder twice.
“If that’s the case, I’ll have to treat you well from now on.”
He pulled her into his embrace and removed the blanket from her. He laughed and pressed her onto
the floor. Unbearably loud noises came from the room again.
…
Zephyr could not sleep that night. He sat on the floor in the room, calling the number continuously.
Although he knew that it was Yelena that Yale had captured, he was worried as he could not reach
Cordelia.
Robert knocked on his door when the sun had just risen. He was shocked to see Zephyr’s sunken and
bloodshot eyes.
“Sir, you…”
“I’m going back to Jangasas today!”
