Chapter 203 Bringing The Dead Back To Life
Cordelia furrowed her brows, suddenly exuding an authoritative aura akin to an elder sister. However,
she quickly softened, playfully shaking Emrys‘ arm as she said, “Just think of it as shopping with me.
You’ve been back for so long, yet you haven’t once accompanied me shopping.”
It wasn’t the stern authority of Cordelia that he feared but rather her coquettish charm. Her soft, sweet
voice was enough to melt his heart.
In the end, the two of them arrived at Haven Mall.
In the fashion department, the moment Emrys tried on a suit, his entire demeanor was instantly
highlighted.
In truth, Emrys wasn’t particularly fond of wearing suits. However, when Cordelia expressed her desire
to see him in one and even began to act coyly, what else could Emrys do? Cordelia, who was once
such a cold and aloof figure, had started to act like a young girl. How could he possibly not indulge her?
So, he changed into a white suit.
He stood tall and straight.
He was the epitome of elegance and grace and exuded the demeanor of a refined gentleman.
When he looked over in this direction, the hint of a roguish smile that played at the corner of his mouth
didn’t evoke any sense of disgust. On the contrary, it was filled with charm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCordelia couldn’t help but feel her heart race.
If Emrys were to wear this suit at our wedding ceremony in the future, and I were to don a pure white
wedding gown as we walked arm in arm through the grand hall…Oh dear, what am I thinking? He’s my
younger brother!
Cordelia hastily patted her head, interrupting her wild thoughts.
It’s all Mom’s fault for constantly calling Emrys her good son–in–law. It almost makes me believe that
I’m Emrys‘ girlfriend.
“Miss, your boyfriend is really handsome and has such a good temperament. You two are the most
visually compatible couple I’ve ever seen,” the saleswoman praised.
Cordelia had just snapped back from her daydream when she heard the saleswoman’s words. She felt
as if her inner thoughts had been seen through. She hurriedly explained, “He’s… my younger brother.”
“Your younger brother?” The saleswoman paused for a moment. “Seeing how sweet you two are
together, I thought you were a couple. I’m really sorry… Hehe, um, Miss, since he’s your younger
brother, could you possibly give me his contact information?”
The saleswoman suddenly gave a suggestive wink, clearly taking a liking to Emrys.
Cordelia’s pretty face turned cold, and she immediately became as protective as a mother tiger
guarding her cub, declaring decisively, “No way!”

Chapter 203 Bringing The Dead Back To Life
The two of them emerged from Haven Mall, carrying many bags.
When they returned to Verdant Estate, they were unexpectedly greeted by an uninvited guest who was
standing at the entrance of the mansion. A car was parked nearby, with two b*dyguards standing guard
beside it.
Huxley.
He actually wasn’t arrested?
Cordelia’s face subtly changed as she asked, “Huxley, what brings you here?”
Upon seeing the two, Huxley immediately walked over with a broad smile and said, “I missed you.
That’s why I made a special trip to see you!”
From his face, there was no trace of the anger he had felt a few days ago when Pretty Face had
encountered quality issues.
He looked like a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Even if his anger within was immense, outwardly, he still maintained a cheerful expression. This was a

Had it not been for the day when Emrys called him and heard his frantic and furious cursing, Emrys
would have thought he never knew how to get angry.
Huxley did not overly fuss over Cordelia. Instead, he walked toward Emrys with a smile. However, his
smile was not genuine. It was more of a forced grin, which was even more unsettling than his usual
expressionless face..
“I knew it was you who did it.”
Huxley went straight to the point, referring, of course, to the incident where his family’s safe was pried
open and the off–the–books transaction records were stolen.
Emrys did not deny it; instead, he asked, “What I’m really curious about is, how did you manage to get
out?”
Huxley chuckled before he looked at Emrys with a playful gaze. “The power of the Bjorn family is far
greater than you could ever imagine. Moreover, in this world, as long as you have money, even
bringing the dead back to life isn’t a difficult task. Surprised, aren’t you?”
