Cordelia had prepared a rose jelly dessert specifically for Zephyr. How could Zephyr bear to share it?Zuko also got a bowl of dessert for his younger brother. Toph set his phone aside, picked up the food, and enjoyed it with his older brother, expressing his satisfaction.Cordelia said, looking at Zuko, "You came back so late today. Did you see Lina home?""Yeah," Zuko replied, pausing to think about Nicholas' expression. He turned it into a joke and shared it with his parents.Cordelia smiled helplessly and glanced at Zephyr.Zephyr suddenly remembered the way Rowan used to look at him. It seemed that all fathers-in-law felt the same way...Fortunately, he didn't have a daughter. If he did, his son-in-law would surely suffer.From his son's perspective, Zephyr had an idea...Zephyr smirked, sat down next to Zuko, and gently placed his hand on his shoulder. He whispered, "Nicholas is quite petty... Son, didn't your grandfather give you the silver needles?"Zuko was taken abac

"Really?" Cordelia smiled, genuinely happy.The family of four sat back on the sofa.While playing his game, Toph said, "Aunt Zennie's medicine is really effective. Renee's mom is much better now compared to before. As long as she continues with the medication and rests, maintaining the current situation won't be a problem.""I heard that maintaining the current situation is already considered an improvement for her condition." Zephyr chuckled. "Can she be discharged from the hospital now?""Yes, she can!" Toph raised an eyebrow. "I've arranged a place for her to stay and hired someone to take care of her. Renee will move out from the Thompsons soon and live with her mom. But the new house is close to the Thompsons, so it'll be convenient for her to visit Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda.""Renee's a good girl." Cordelia looked at her son. "You better treat her well. She's suffered so much since she was young!""Don't worry, mom!" Toph smirked as he put down his phone and went over

The media, always eager to seize an opportunity, naturally didn't let go of this headline and immediately put Zuko and Abigail in the spotlight.Little did those media outlets know that the hotel wasn't even the place where Zuko stayed! He had been there that day because Jacob was attending a legal forum in Southeast Aciatic, and Zuko had met with him there to give instructions to the hotel staff about taking care of Jacob. Who knew it would be twisted into a story of Zuko and Abigail being passionately involved in a love affair at the hotel!?However, the trending topic only lasted a few minutes before the Hamertons' PR team forcefully suppressed it, and the journalists responsible faced legal consequences.Zuko had always disliked public appearances, so he remained silent about the matter. What about Abigail? She didn't even provide an explanation and simply disappeared!Over the course of two years, the incident gradually faded from the fickle masses' memories. However, no one

Abigail sat in a luxurious and spacious dressing room, her naturally fair skin glowing under the warm white lights of the dressing table. Her beautiful features were flawless, even without makeup. There was a hint of nonchalance in her gaze as she casually played with an eyebrow pencil, exuding charm and laziness.Her manager placed her printed schedule on the table."We're in talks for a few scripts, big productions with renowned directors. Ms. Trinity Lulham's artistic style makes her script suitable for you. It's time for you to transition, and taking the artistic route is a good choice."Before finalizing the scripts, you need to increase your exposure. Here are a few variety shows you can choose from..."Oh, and…" Her manager's eyes lit up. "The Thompson Group's film studio project has started, and many artists are eyeing the spokesperson position. You need to seize this opportunity, understand?""Hmm?" Abigail raised an eyebrow. "Seize what?""The spokesperson position, of

The assistant on the other end stammered, "Abigail… Uh... He's indeed in Centrolis."Abigail was delighted, but her assistant's next sentence brought her crashing down. "But... it seems like he has a girlfriend.""What!?""That girl is an intern in the Thompson Group, working on the film studio project team."...Lina had been busy all morning, finally getting a moment to catch her breath and take a sip of water. Just as she was about to relax, a colleague rushed over to inform her, "Lina, your mother is downstairs arguing with someone!""What!?" Lina almost choked on her water.Renee quickly approached and patted her on the back, speaking softly, "Cuz, you go down and handle it. I'll stay here and keep an eye on things.""Okay!""It's probably not Aunt Linda," Renee reassured her. "It's likely Aunt Melissa. The people at the front desk can be snobbish. When you go down, try not to argue with them. Keep your composure as much as you can. We'll sort it out later!"Lina smiled

Lina bit her lip, feeling a mix of anger and worry for Melissa.She understood her mother's temper. Public humiliation like this hurt her more than a physical injury."Mom..." Lina supported Melissa and noticed her pale face. She was visibly distressed. "Don't get angry. You don't need to stoop down to their level.""What do you mean?" Erin interjected. "We have a responsibility to verify the identity of unknown individuals!""But... Lina, your mother really made us see things differently!""Exactly! When she argued with us earlier, she acted like a shrew!""Yeah! Some of our colleagues even said that the intern's family must be wealthy." Amelia smirked with malice. "Hah! I guess I was right! If her family is rich, then I'll go dig coal!""Have you said enough?" Melissa's anger flared, and she glared at them. "You young ones are so sharp and mean-spirited. Show some decency! Be careful, or no one will want you in the future!"My daughter works with all of you, and just because

Amelia and the others stood frozen in place, feeling as if countless needles were pricking them. The weight of their public condemnation threatened to make them faint.As Linda turned her gaze toward Melissa and Lina, noticing their intimately intertwined hands, she felt an unexpected twinge of pain. However, she quickly put on a gentle smile."Let your mother come in," she said softly.Lina widened her eyes, slightly taken aback, and smiled at Melissa. "Shall we go in together?""No, no, it's alright..." Melissa felt embarrassed by the trouble she had caused. "Lina, I just wanted to come and see you today. I didn't expect to cause any trouble. You should go back to work, don't worry about me. I—""Since you're already here, let's go up together." Linda's voice was gentle, but each word struck Melissa's heart.Melissa looked up at her. When their eyes met, it felt as if a thousand words converged in that instant. Linda's anger, resentment, and helplessness mixed with Melissa's sh

Mollie stood frozen, her wide eyes staring, and her hands trembling slightly. Her colleagues, who were usually bullied by her and had to please her, now stood up one after another, seeking revenge."How could Ms. Chapman possibly work overtime? The hard and tiring tasks are always assigned to the interns as part of their 'newcomer workplace training'!""Yes, Ms. Chapman has been wholeheartedly 'supporting the newcomers.' Her enthusiasm is truly admirable!""But there seems to be one intern who's an exception... When Gia arrived, she acted even more arrogantly than the boss herself. She doesn't do anything yet receives praise from Ms. Chapman every day!"Flustered and stammering, Mollie said, "You... What nonsense are you talking about?""Gia?" Linda pursed her lips and walked toward the empty workstation, gently knocking on the desk. "Is this where Gia sits?""Yes!" everyone else hurriedly answered."If she's so outstanding, why isn't she present during work hours?" Linda's gaze

"Only Morpheus and Sephy aren't like that. They respect and understand me. Sephy told me once, 'One's appearance doesn't indicate anything. A clean heart is what truly matters!'"Rebecca chuckled dismissively."You're a psychologist, yet you fail to grasp this," Wynn said coldly. "Actually, I pity you. You could have stepped out, yet you insist on dwelling on the trivialities."Morpheus has psychological barriers, a consequence of returning from the battlefield. No one has cured his PTSD except Sephy... It shows that a true psychologist is never just a title."What truly heals everything is love!"-One particular morning a year later, sunlight streamed through sheer cream curtains onto the floor.Persephone was sound asleep when she suddenly felt something pressing down on her... Then, Morpheus' strong arms wrapped around her slender waist. She drowsily opened her eyes to find him sealing her lips with heated kisses.Over the year, his kissing skills had improved, and Persepho

With Morpheus' involvement, the police didn't slack off and quickly found Rebecca.That day, Rebecca was preparing to escape from a small port. The boat she had found was an illegally operating one.As she was about to board, piercing sirens sounded nearby.The boat owner, enraged upon hearing the sirens, grabbed Rebecca by her hair and pushed her into the water.Rebecca screamed for help, but he roared, "I didn't expect you to be sent by the cops!""I'm not..." Rebecca choked on water. "Sir, let's leave now. Your boat is fast. As long as we reach the open sea, no one will catch you!""Dream on!" The boat owner wanted to strangle her. "Do you not understand? These sirens are from the royal guards! Who did you bitch provoke?"Rebecca was dumbfounded. Being a foreigner, she naturally didn't understand the local affairs in the Southeast Aciatic region.The police and royal guards quickly caught up, armed, and surrounded them.Rebecca turned pale and trembled all over, her gaze gr

"You had no choice on the battlefield."Persephone looked at him with her crystal eyes. There was a magical power in them. Even if a devil was tearing him apart, her eyes would always bring him back to light.She smiled and caressed his cheek. "Though you killed your father, you saved the country.""Do you really… think so?"She nodded. "You're not at fault. He was the one who made a mistake. You were just fulfilling your job as a general to protect the country."But I also understand that he's your father who brought you up, after all. You guys must have had happy days before that happened, right?"Morpheus held his head low in silence."You did well as the protector of the country," she said softly. "But as a son, you can secretly pay homage to him."Persephone held his hand. "Reconcile with your father, Morpheus. You'll also reconcile with yourself by doing that, okay?"He was stunned for a long time and felt a lump in his throat.-Morpheus stayed with Persephone in the

"No way!" Christopher smirked, glancing at Morpheus. "To him, you're his only princess! I just got lucky for the princess carry, thanks to you!""Yeah, at least you're self-aware!" Persephone nodded, rubbing her chin."We've known each other for so long! What kind of person do you think I am?" Christopher laughed. "I can be a bit shameless at times, but..."But upon learning that the one she loved was the unbeatable god of war, he willingly stepped back, offering his blessings with a smile."Okay, okay. You two stop crowding around me!" Christopher waved his hand. "Sephy needs more rest, and I'd like to get some more sleep, too! Once we heal, let's go out and have some fun together!""You're still thinking about fun?" Morpheus' deep voice intervened with a wry smile. "With the factory explosion incident, the royal family is furious and will thoroughly investigate it. Many people will probably be coming to talk to you both in the next few days. After all, you two are the most direc

"Let's get out first!""Hey, wait..." Persephone pointed to the other side.In moments of life and death, it wasn't appropriate to laugh, but Morpheus still chuckled. The young Prince Christopher was sprawled on the floor in a very ridiculous pose, and they almost forgot about him!"Don't worry," Morpheus whispered. "I won't let anything happen to him."He had Persephone cling to his back and then carried Christopher.Christopher was a tall fellow, so it took some effort to carry them both to a safe place.Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars rushed in. Their sirens pierced the sky, startling a flock of birds.The fire was soon extinguished, and Persephone and Christopher received timely treatment. Luckily, their burns weren't too severe, and even more fortunately, their faces were unharmed.When Christopher woke up, he felt bandages wrapped around his head, and his skin had a burning sensation. His heart sank, and he was almost on the verge of tears."Tell me the truth! A

There was fire everywhere. Flames rushed toward Persephone like menacing dragons. Her consciousness grew increasingly blurred, but the searing pain coursing through her body became clearer. She struggled to get up, the agony almost unbearable.Despite several attempts, it was futile...Something was pinning her feet down, and stones kept falling on her. She couldn't even muster a shout.Many images flashed through her mind in that fleeting moment, each frame featuring Morpheus' face…She remembered the times they had spent together in Flinge, how he had initially distanced himself from her, then later had exerted every effort to protect her. She recalled how he would gently ruffle her hair and call her "silly goose"..."Morpheus, I'm afraid I might have to go first..."The fire grew fiercer, explosions resonated continuously, and she could no longer hold on.Christopher, who was nearby, wasn't any better.Amidst the roaring flames, he couldn't see anything clearly, only pulling

"No need, you can go back first." Morpheus glanced at him. "I'll wait here for her a little longer.""Prince Christopher wouldn't do anything to Ms. Hamerton...""Alfred, what are you thinking?" Morpheus couldn't help but chuckle. "I know exactly what Christopher is like, but I just want to wait here for Sephy. Christopher mentioned that she'd specifically designed these fireworks for me. Hah! I'm the useless one. I don't even dare to go inside and take a look.""Sir, don't say that.""If I wait here, will it count as accompanying her in her efforts?"Alfred nodded.Morpheus smiled and sent Alfred back. He continued waiting under the tree.The air in Southeast Aciatic was hot and humid. The shade of the banyan tree offered some relief, but it couldn't completely dispel the oppressive heat.Morpheus took a deep breath, about to move elsewhere, when he glimpsed a suspicious figure swiftly darting through the factory's side gate.The security at the side gate was lax, making it e

Christopher struggled to swallow the bite of the sandwich in his mouth for what seemed like ages. He gazed at Persephone, his mind wandering back…He didn't just know Morpheus. He had been close since childhood to the children of the two prominent military families in Southeast Aciatic.Compared to the Harrises, he preferred visiting the Ortons, especially when he got to spend time with Morpheus. He considered Morpheus a friend, a brother even, having engaged in countless mischief together, much to their parents' dismay.In his memory, Morpheus was someone who smiled a lot, radiating warmth and brightness like the Southeast Aciatic sun when he did.However, from the moment Kaiden betrayed the country, Morpheus never smiled again, gradually growing distant from Christopher as well.It wasn't until that evening at the gates of the palace that Christopher felt like it had been a lifetime."I... I don't know him." Christopher forced a smile. "Where would I have met your boyfriend!"

Morpheus wasn't just an ordinary person!Christopher wholeheartedly accepted his defeat to Morpheus."Then... I'd like to invite you to come over to my place for a while as a friend. That's fine, right?"-A few days later, Persephone finally ran into Christopher, who had been missing in action for days, in the classroom."Hey, you finally showed up!" She dashed over, plopping down in the seat beside him and handing him breakfast. "You haven't eaten, right? Let's eat together!"Usually, Christopher would readily accept, but he waved his hands now. "No, no, no!""What's wrong?" Persephone widened her eyes. "This breakfast isn't poisoned!"Christopher awkwardly smiled. "You have a boyfriend, so maybe... we should keep some distance."Persephone burst into laughter. Then she remarked, "Strange... Morpheus was right!""Uh, what?""My boyfriend!" She chuckled. "He made this breakfast. I asked if he could also make a portion for you, and he said sure, just worried you wouldn't tak
