Stunned, Zephyr turned around to look at Cordelia.
Her hair was slightly messy. She looked a little silly when she had just woken up—she was so cute!
If he did not have so much work to do at the Hamerton Group, he would like to…
“Are you sure you want to bring me food?”
Cordelia did not manage to get what he meant, so she nodded seriously.
He smirked, revealing a naughty grin.
“Sure,” he whispered. “I’ll wait for you at noon.”
At noon, he would eat the food she brought him or her.
As soon as Zephyr got out, Cordelia began cooking in the kitchen.
Helen was cleaning the house, and some fragrance suddenly attracted her. She saw Cordelia making food and
putting it in the thermal container.

Cordelia smiled, scooped a piece of pork rib onto a small plate, and handed it to her.
Helen dared not take it at first, and she only tasted it after the former insisted that she should try it. It was smooth
with an amazing texture, and the sweetness was perfect.
Helen was impressed. “I can’t cook as well as you, even though I’m older!”
“I’ll cook more often for you, then!”
“Oh, no!” Helen panicked. “I’m grateful that Mr. Hamerton is willing to let me stay to take care of you two. How
would I dare to ask for your cooking! I should be serving the two of you…”
“Aunt Helen.” Cordelia looked at her in silence.
She could not help but think of her mother when she looked at her. It was pitiful enough for an old lady who was
tortured and left alone for half of her life. How would she bear to let her suffer during her old age?
“Don’t be a stranger.” Cordelia held her hands. “There are no rules at home. Moreover, you’re a senior, while Uncle
Clark has been taking care of Zen since he was little. We should respect the two of you.”
“Ms. Jenner…” Helen felt a lump in her throat.
She had never thought she did not foresee herself running into such an amazing family despite all of the fortune
telling that she did.
Since that was the case, she would do all she could to take care of this couple.
“Oh yeah…” Helen wiped her tears, took a good look at Cordelia, and chuckled. “Ms. Jenner, you really have the life
of an empress. I was being honest about that!”
Cordelia smiled while continuing to pack up the lunch.
“I’m being serious!” Helen looked serious. “Believe me! Although most of the time I was scamming people when I
was doing my job the past few years, I actually learned a little bit of physiognomy…
“Ms. Jenner, you have the face that would prosper… I see that you’re the daughter of a noble family!
“That’s right. This isn’t the face of an empress!” Helen frowned and thought hard. “An empress… relies on her

“Okay!” Cordelia laughed. “You’re going overboard, Helen!”
Whether she had the life of an empress or the daughter of a noble family, she did not care.
She only cared about Zephyr, whether they had the fate of spending forever together.
“Aunt Helen, I’m dropping by his office now. If you’re done with your work, rest or go wherever you want!” Cordelia
smiled sweetly. “I’m sorry, I only made lunch for him. Can you take care of lunch yourself?”
“Yes, of course!” Helen responded quickly. “But I can’t run around. I must stay here to keep watch! You don’t know
this, Ms. Jenner. I saw someone loitering around our house lately!”
“Really?” Cordelia was stunned.
Now that Helen said that, she remembered she had unintentionally seen a shadow flash by the garden one night.
She had been startled and suspected that it was just an illusion, so she did not investigate.
However, this was Royal Manor. It was the Bayers’ territory. Everyone knew the relationship between the Bayers
and the Hamertons. Who would be so daring to trespass?
“Hmm, got it.” Cordelia bit her lip. “Please watch out, then, Aunt Helen. If someone is trespassing, never confront
them. Try your best to contact security or the police directly. Understand?”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Jenner! I’m experienced. I know what to do if that happens.”
