Aurelia froze, looking at the familiar back. Her breath was caught as her heart skipped a beat.
When Neil turned around and their eyes met, it was like the world had stopped moving.
Ever since Neil took her to Centrolis, she had been staying in Royal Manor without any contact with him. Their only
contact was her dozens of accounts that posted and commented under his video…
Now that they had met again, Aurelia could not tell what she felt. She forced a stiff smile and greeted him as
naturally as she could, “Hi, uncle!”
Neil’s gaze dimmed with a straight face, but his hands that were on his sides balled up into fists. He was kind of
angry with himself. He kept telling himself that he had come to the airport to go back to Southeast Aciatic with
Cordelia because he was worried about his aunt’s illness and wanted to spend some time relaxing back home…
In spite of it, his subconscious told him that it was because Aurelia was going there too.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was why he had rushed over so eagerly.
In actuality, he had two more schedules. When he packed his luggage so spontaneously today, it nearly made
Shane cough blood out of his rage.
Neil took a deep breath and could not help laughing self-deprecatingly at himself that he had flattered himself. The
girl had made it clear in the helicopter—he was just ‘uncle’ to her, only an uncle!
Zuko woke up then, his cry breaking the silence.
Cordelia quickly took him to the nursing room to feed him.
Neil went to Zephyr and cleared his throat. “Uh… Aurelia’s coming with me.”
“Huh?” Zephyr was taken aback.
Neil pulled Aurelia to his side without saying more.
“Uncle, you…”
“I brought you back from Chaiseland, so you’re naturally coming with me!”
“But Cordelia says to follow her.” Aurelia lowered her head. Despite what she said, her heart bloomed with sweet
joy.
Neil shot her a look. “Aurelia, what I tell you isn’t effective anymore, is it?”
“Huh? No!”
“Then get on my plane!” Neil’s tone was harsh. “The Hamertons’ private jet isn’t comfortable. Ride in mine!”
Zephyr was rendered speechless. “Take Aurelia with you if that’s what you want, but why are you involving the
Hamertons’ plane?”
With a look from Neil, the flight attendant took Aurelia to board first.
When Cordelia came out after nursing, she more or less understood the situation after seeing the scene. She met
eyes with Zephyr, and they chuckled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe purposely asked Neil, “Can Aurelia go to Southeast Aciatic without a passport?”
Neil was prepared for the question. “Her temporary residence permit in Southeast Aciatic’s prepared. According to
the law, as long as one has a temporary residence permit, they can stay there even without a passport. They just
don’t have citizenship rights.”
“Oh…”
Zephyr looked at him and smirked. “I thought you’re rarely back in Southeast Aciatic? Don’t you live in Mengasas
most of the time? Why are you so familiar with Southeast Aciatic law?”
Neil was stumped by his question and turned around to glare at him.
Zephyr was actually right. Before meeting Aurelia, he knew nothing about Southeast Aciatic’s law.
In order to resolve Aurelia’s immigration status, he had gone through the thick book of Southeast Aciatic’s law
three times from front to back, so much so that he would pass with flying colors if he were to sit for the lawyer
qualification exam.
“Zephyr Hamerton!” Neil’s face heated up slightly as he gritted his teeth and glared at the man. “Just take care of
my cousin. Why are you poking your nose into my business too!?”
