Matthew’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Looks like it’s useless to you, whether it’s taking the subsidiary from you or dismissing you!” Liam looked at him

coldly. “You don’t have to come to the company anymore, then! The projects you have are to be distributed to the

Hamerton kids!”

“Zephyr, make arrangements for it. Those who take over must have a virtuous character. No more blunders!”

“Mm, I understand.” Zephyr smiled as he already had a plan in his mind.

He had a lot of peers in the family. His elder cousins were mature and steady people who were trustworthy.

“As for the western suburbs land…” Liam thought about it. “Zephyr, take full charge. Make sure nothing goes

wrong.”

“Alright.”

Zephyr wore a small smile.

He managed to dismiss Matthew from work in the board meeting last time with a few words, and now, with the

same brief words, he kicked the man out of the project.

It was like an obstacle removed for him, but the Tanners were still around.

Zephyr said with a low tone, “Grandpa, since Uncle Matthew isn’t involved now, then the Tanners…”

“The Tanners have been our best partners.” Liam looked at him.

“Zephyr, I understand what you’re thinking.” Liam’s gaze was cryptic. “I’m not forcing you to marry Nelly, but you

can’t just stay fixed on Cordelia alone!”

“Grandpa—”

“Alright, I’m tired.” Liam waved his hand and got up with his cane. “I do not wish to talk about this further.

“Work well with Nelly.” He turned back and said at the door, “Maybe you’ll realize that a woman like Cordelia isn’t

the best for you!”

During the weekend, Cordelia and Zephyr took their mothers out.

It was cool and breezy, and the sky was clear blue with cotton-like drifting clouds. The sun showered its warmth on

the world, and the sea glittered. The scenery was beautiful.

They had wanted to go hiking but ultimately roamed around the city under the two mothers’ insistence.

The city area of Centrolis was large, but it did not feel like a trip. It felt more like they were shopping.

Cordelia gloomily rested her head against the car window, and Zephyr pulled her shoulder to let her lean against

him upon noticing her slightly disappointed look.

“The window’s cold and hard. It’s not comfortable,” he said in a low voice.

Cordelia looked up at him with a smile.

Their mothers’ chatter and giggles came from the front.

“Let’s drop them off later, and I’ll take you somewhere!” Zephyr chortled next to Cordelia’s ear.

“No.” Cordelia shook her head. “We’re out today to spend time with them. What’s the meaning of it if we leave

first?”

“But…”

“We’ve got to go all the way if we’re doing this,” Cordelia said seriously. “It’s nice to roam around with them. They

might buy us something nice!”

“Something nice?” Zephyr asked with a chuckle, “Why didn’t I realize that you were a little money grubber in the

past?”

“You’ll know in the future!” Cordelia’s eyes were beaming in crescents. “I’m also a miser! I think the cutest thing in

this world is my money!”

Zephyr glared immediately. “What about me?”

“You…” Cordelia stuck her tongue out. The way she looked when she was unable to answer was endearing.

It felt like a kitty was scratching Zephyr’s heart. He could not help getting closer to her with a sense of tension,

speaking hoarsely next to her ear. “Which one’s cuter between me and money?”

Cordelia smiled without a word.

The atmosphere began to heat up… Cordelia blushed and leaned back a little only for Zephyr to push in closer with

his muscular chest.

“Tell me!” Zephyr’s eyes were smiling. “Which one’s cuter?”

Before he got an answer, his head was thwacked by Janine.

“What’s wrong with you? Why ask a dumb question like this? Of course it’s money!”

Zephyr was rendered speechless.

Robert drove steadily and caught his employer’s empty look from the rearview mirror. It seemed that he often

wore this expression ever since Cordelia learned about his identity.

It seemed about right, though. Each time they tried to be more intimate, there were always interruptions—an

emergency brake or Janine’s slap…

Robert could not help laughing as he thought about it, and his foot stomped on the brake, causing the car to jolt.

“Sorry! I’m sorry!” He was horrified. “Are you all okay?”

Janine looked at him, befuddled. “No, but I remember you used to drive well, didn’t you? What’s gotten into you

now?”

Robert chuckled awkwardly.

As the car door opened and they got out, Cordelia realized they stood before a lofty well-designed mansion. It was

in an excellent spot of quietness despite the bustling city center.

Janine and Xyla looked at them with a beam.

Josiah then came out of the mansion area and nearly gave Zephyr a bear hug when he saw him.

“Z! A grand welcome to you and sis-in-law for choosing Royal Manor!” Josiah was rarely this serious with a suit and

tie. “This will be your home from now on!”

Cordelia was stunned and looked at Xyla. “Mom, this is—”

“Cordelia, this is a gift from both your mothers to you!” Josiah said with a grin.

“Yea, Cordelia.” Xyla held Cordelia’s hand and looked at her lovingly. “I’ve discussed it with Janine and think that you

both should have your own space.”

“It’s not too nice to stay in Zen Residence,” said Janine. “After all, you haven’t officially married into the Hamertons.

And the place is full of rules. It’s torture. I’m worried that you won’t adapt to it so soon.

“So we chose here! This place is an exclusive mansion residential area that the Bayers developed. The facilities are

absolutely marvelous!”

“The service is great too!” Josiah stood between them. “I’m your exclusive butler from now on. Just come to me if

you need anything!”

Cordelia giggled while Zephyr wrapped an arm around her and gave Josiah a dirty look.

“Z! Don’t look down on me! I’m in serious work mode now!”

Zephyr smiled and looked at his mother in approval.

She had come back to Centrolis for so long and was arguing with him all the time. This was the only thing that sat

easily with him. He just did not know if Cordelia was happy with this.

He was a little worried and looked at her. Cordelia was blushing a little as she looked down and fidgeted with the

hem of her clothes.

He knew that she was nervous. She had a traditional mind and might not accept this, but she had long been his!

Zephyr looked at her, feeling a little emotional. “Cordelia, will you start a new life with me?”
