“Just… Just what if!” Cordelia looked at him. “What if you met one?”
Zephyr pressed his lips together.
Nothing could ever handle “what-ifs”.
Once a woman was engrossed with hypothetical questions, she would play a full-fledged soap opera in her mind.
Not even Trinity would dare direct her film that way. Yet, once the man failed to counter the “what-if”, the
consequences would be grave.
Zephyr chuckled. He might be even more experienced than Nicholas in terms of traps and loaded questions now.
This was nothing to him! He cleared his throat and asked pointedly, “Oh, if I met one? Okay, where did we meet?”
“Um…” Cordelia blinked her big eyes. “Just anywhere.”
“How could your husband be just anywhere?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Then… you met on the streets!”
“Your husband drives when he’s out. He doesn’t roam the streets.”
Cordelia grinned. “Then you two got in an accident!”
She did not realize that she had already fallen into the man’s trap and was drifting farther away from the main
topic.
Zephyr held back his laugh and stroked her hair gently. “She drove her car into mine?”
Cordelia nodded seriously. “Mm!”
Zephyr replied seriously straightaway, “Then I have to report it to the police and let the traffic police catch her!
How did she get her driving license when she drives recklessly on the road!?”
Cordelia was stunned.
“And she has to bear full responsibility and compensate for my car!”
“Darling?”
“We’ll get the lawyer to settle this! We’ll meet at the court if she doesn’t want to pay! I’ll sue her until she goes
bankrupt and gets too embarrassed to see anyone!”
“No, no!”
Cordelia was lost by what he said. How did they get to this point in their conversation? She looked at Zephyr,
catching the triumphant smile at the corner of his lips.
“Stop diverting the topic! I’m asking you, what will you do if you meet a girl like this?”
Zephyr could not help it. “Then how did we meet!?”
“Just… we’ll make it more romantic. You both see the same thing in the mall and reach for it simultaneously and
then you meet!”
“Reach for it at the same time?” Zephyr arched his brow. “An XL shirt? Or size 43 shoes?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCordelia was rendered speechless.
“If she wears such a big size… Honey, you call that better shaped than you?”
Cordelia stared at him dumbly and blinked.
This was odd. Why did it seem like she was lost in the conversation again?
“No, darling, I mean— Mmh!”
Her lips were sealed with a deep kiss before she could finish her sentence.
Zephyr kissed her, and his hand roamed up her back like it had a mind of its own.
Cordelia was delirious and could not help wrapping her arms around his neck to respond in equal passion.
“Darling…” Zephyr left her lips and met her dazed eyes. He swiped a finger across her supple cheek.
“What you said about ‘what-if’ will not exist at all. I don’t want anyone but you in this world.
“Actually, I don’t even mind the world…” he whispered deeply by her ear with a smile. “I only mind you.”
