“His uncle’s stingy, though. Did he think we could be bought over with one ice cream cone?”
Zuko, who heard “ice cream cone”, looked up at his father cutely with his big eyes, his face smudged with melted
ice cream like a kitten. He thought that his father wanted some, so he handed the cone to him with a smile.
Zephyr was caught by surprise before he was significantly moved. Who said that sons bonded better with their
mothers? His son was showing affection to him too!
Even Cordelia sounded jealous when she said, “Sigh! Looks like Daddy’s more important to you, huh? You gave
Mommy a bug and thought of Daddy when you have a yummy treat!”
“Why? Are you jealous that our son thinks of me?” Zephyr lost himself in bliss once more.
Cordelia glanced at him without saying anything.
Zuko’s chubby hand remained raised, holding the ice cream as he blinked big eyes at his father and stammered, “A
little… A little bit!”
He meant for Zephyr to try a little bit.

the ice cream cone entirely!
Zuko felt like he was watching a science fiction film… The ice cream cone had been whole just a second ago, but
only a tiny bit of it was left now. Why? He could not figure it out with his little head!
What kind of monster was this man before him? How could his mouth be so big!?
Zuko looked at his hand, then at Zephyr’s full cheeks. He could not help the sadness that came from within and
started wailing.
“Zephyr Hamerton! What are you doing!?” Cordelia glared at him with annoyance and quickly comforted their son.
“Baby, don’t cry. Mommy will buy you another one!”
“I… I didn’t mean to!” Zephyr hastily explained, “He handed me the ice cream cone!”
“How can an adult like you snatch a child’s food?”
“Darling…”
“You and Neil are the same, never giving me any peace of mind!”
With that, Cordelia carried their son and went to buy another ice cream cone.
Zephyr stood under the sun innocently. He lost interest in the ice cream in his mouth, anxious to catch up to his wife
and son.
“Cordelia, I really didn’t mean it!
“Zuko, this ice cream cone is strawberry flavored. It’s actually not that tasty! How about Daddy gets you a different
flavor?”
Zuko cried even harder, looking at him from Cordelia’s shoulder and flailing his little fists.
Zephyr was taken aback and smiled helplessly. He had just thought the boy was considerate, but he was currently
at odds with him over an ice cream cone.
It seemed that he would still have to discipline his son strictly in the future and not spoil him too much, so the boy
would not become overbearing!
Thinking about it and doing it were two different things, though. When it came to action, he was still playing the role
of a loving father.

time. Daddy promises that next time you give me something to eat, I’ll just lick it and not eat it!”
Zuko was speechless. Cordelia winced and pushed their son toward him, walking ahead herself.
They did not encounter an ice cream vendor but ran into a vendor selling cotton candy.
Zuko was still a child, so his crying stopped immediately when he saw the colorful cotton candy. Zephyr quickly
bought the biggest one for him.
The baby took it happily and started chasing butterflies again.
Cordelia was a little relieved. When she turned around, she saw her husband holding another puff of cotton candy,
offering it to her like a bouquet of flowers.
“What are you doing?”
“This is for you.” Zephyr smiled lightly. “The biggest one is for our son, and the most beautiful one is for you!”
Cordelia smiled, sweet romance filling up her dimples.
“Why did you suddenly think of buying me cotton candy?”
“Because…” Zephyr rubbed her head, his gentle tone filled with infinite love. “My precious one will certainly have
whatever the others have too!”
