Cordelia looked calm. “Forget about the compensation. I don’t care for the Tanners’ money.
“But you must restore my name!”
Joe widened his eyes.
She looked at him and enunciated each word. “I want Mr. Tanner, Mrs. Tanner, and Ms. Tanner to apologize to me in
front of everyone!”
“Impossible!” Mandy was the first to respond. However, Joe stared at her, making her step down.
He looked at Zephyr, attempting to use his seniority to suppress him.
“Do you agree with this too, Zen?”
Zephyr smiled and held Cordelia into his embrace. “I’ll listen to my wife.”
Joe took a deep breath to press down the rage in him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKate had called Cordelia the Hamertons’ daughter-in-law in front of the people, and now Zephyr directly called her
his wife…
That was just humiliating for the Tanners!
Joe’s voice was shaking, “Zen, you should call me uncle at least. I’m the same age as your father. We have the
same status too! You—”
“Who said seniors don’t have to apologize when making mistakes?” Zephyr raised his voice.
Just when Joe wanted to say more, he saw the Hamertons’ bodyguards coming from all directions out of the corner
of his eyes.
It seemed he would not be able to run today.
He lifted his eyes to look at Cordelia. Since there was no way to turn things around now, he could only admit defeat.
He lowered his head and bowed 90 degrees. He bowed in all seriousness and said three words slowly. “I am sorry.”
Cordelia smiled.
Mandy and Nelly gave her an official apology in the same manner too. Then, the three of them ran out of Splendor
Dynasty clumsily.
Outside the hotel, Nicholas, who was lying on a tree, yawned. He poked Robert next to him, who was falling asleep.
“Say, should we go?”
Robert jumped up.
He looked toward the hotel. Everything seemed normal, and he had not received any orders from Zephyr…
Or was the problem solved?
Nicholas spoke. “Say Robert, he should let us know if he needs us or not! My men have been waiting for a long
time!”
Robert faked a cough.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis men, who were hiding around the hotel, were alert. All of them had ropes and sacks in their hands. All they
were waiting for was an order to bring the people back for a ‘talk’… They had not been doing this since they left
Jangasas. They were all excited.
In the end…
Robert looked at his phone. There was a message from Zephyr.
He forced a smile as he looked at Nicholas. “N… Um, you should go home!”
“What the hell!?” Nicholas was dumbstruck.
“Mr. Z said we don’t have to do anything to the Tanners anymore…”
“Why didn’t he say that earlier, godd*mnit!?” Nicholas was pissed. “I haven’t even made dinner for my wife, and I
came here to do this for him instead!”
“Hah, N, please calm down…”
Furious, Nicholas shouted at the hotel, “Zephyr, you b*stard!”
