“To sign Neil. Did you forget!?”

Nicholas was quite worked up. He had sacrificed his dignity to trade this with over 300 lipsticks!

“Don’t worry, I remember.” Zephyr chuckled.

The former looked at him hesitantly. “Really?”

“But I heard that the Imperial Media has been fighting for Neil. I think they’ve contacted him many times.”

Zephyr was stunned. Was that not Janine’s company?

So, his mother was interested in Neil too.

If they were to fight, he could not offend any side.

“Perhaps it’s just a rumor,” he said flatly. “I’ll find out for you.”

“Hmm, thanks!” Nicholas smiled. It was over 300 lipsticks! He could not let that go to waste no matter what.

When Zephyr returned to Royal Manor, he saw Cordelia making the bed as soon as he entered the room.

Her tiny body knelt on the bed, and each move was like a silent seduction attempt.

Zephyr was stunned and froze where he was…

He took a deep breath and walked to her. Hearing the sound behind her, Cordelia snapped her head back

    Stunned, Zephyr turned around to look at Cordelia.Her hair was slightly messy. She looked a little silly when she had just woken up—she was so cute!If he did not have so much work to do at the Hamerton Group, he would like to…“Are you sure you want to bring me food?”Cordelia did not manage to get what he meant, so she nodded seriously.He smirked, revealing a naughty grin.“Sure,” he whispered. “I’ll wait for you at noon.”At noon, he would eat the food she brought him or her.As soon as Zephyr got out, Cordelia began cooking in the kitchen.Helen was cleaning the house, and some fragrance suddenly attracted her. She saw Cordelia making food and putting it in the thermal container.“What did you make, Ms. Jenner?” Helen was curious. “It’s appetizing by smelling it alone. It must be delicious!”Cordelia smiled, scooped a piece of pork rib onto a small plate, and handed it to her.Helen dared not take it at first, and she only tasted it after the former insisted that she

    Cordelia nodded and went out immediately.Zephyr had given her a special access card. She could enter any office in the building without having to make an appointment at the front desk.She entered a private elevator with the access card and arrived at the top floor.Just when she was going into his office, she suddenly heard some kind of commotion.“That’s about it. Please look at the report.”She was stunned.‘The voice is familiar. It seems to be that arrogant Ms. Tanner.So, Nelly is in his office?‘No wonder he did not reply to the messages that I sent him on the way here.’Nelly’s voice lowered. “Zen, I’ve prepared the signing ceremony from Feranche this week for you.”Zephyr said nothing.“I’m doing all this for your own good.” She sounded wronged. “I appreciate the opportunity that we’re working together… Zen, do you want me to show you my heart?“Sure, as long as you say yes, I’ll show it to you!”Disgusting!Cordelia took a deep breath. She had absolute confiden

    Nelly’s jaw dropped.“What?” Zephyr looked at her coldly. “Didn’t you say you wanted to show me your heart?”“Zen…” Nelly forced a smile.“Do you want me to do it for you?”“No! I mean I can do everything for you.” She felt guilty. “It’s just a… metaphor to say that I can show you my heart. It’s…”Nelly was incoherent. “Zen, don’t you understand what I’m trying to say?”“I’m sorry.” Zephyr chuckled. “My thought process is rather direct. I only understand what people say as it is. I thought you’d really want to show me your heart!”Nelly smiled, “Are you joking with me?”“I never joke with people I don’t know well!”His face was cold. There was a suppressive aura around him.Nelly bit her lip and lifted her eyes to look at him. Her face alternated from flushed and pale.“Y-You’re saying that you still don’t know me well until now?” She said softly, “Grandpa said that he’ll call the shots on our marriage!”Zephyr frowned.At that moment, Cordelia came in. There was a light a

    Cordelia lifted her face and said while feeling a little troubled. “I’m afraid I can’t go next week… I’ll start work at Imperial Media tomorrow.”“So soon?”“Yes.” She smiled.After resigning from the news agency, Janine called her many times to get her to work as soon as possible.Although she wanted to rest a little bit more, her career came first. After all, she was eager to become a successful woman, just like Janine.“Hmm… Don’t worry.” Zephyr thought about it. “I’ll tell my mom to give you one day off.”Cordelia frowned. “That’s a terrible idea!”“It’s not.” He chuckled, patted her head, and said, “This banquet is important. You must come.”Clearly, she did not understand why he said it was important.She did not know that she was the owner of the land in the western suburbs. She assumed he meant because Nelly would be there too, while he did not want to show up with Nelly.Cordelia smiled. Her dimples filled all of the happiness that she was feeling.…A few days lat

    “What other schedule is there today?”“There’s a talk with two variety show celebrities at 1:00 p.m., an internal company meeting at 2:30 p.m., and a meeting with several important media companies from 3:10 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. to reach a collaboration agreement.“There’s also dinner with agents at 7:00 p.m. The hotel is booked at the city center, the top floor revolving restaurant.”Cordelia was well-organized and clear. It had only been days since she started working, but she was meticulous, all-rounded, calm, and composed. Not only was she able to make appropriate arrangements for everything, but she also crafted excellent proposals and was recognized for her skills.Janine smiled in comfort, feeling that she had not chosen the wrong person.Zephyr took a glance at Cordelia and felt bad.She would leave hurriedly in the morning and often would not have time for breakfast. She would also stay up late to rush proposals and wake up with dark eye circles the next day.She could hand

    The signing ceremony was not big in size, but those who attended had business relationships with Zephyr and were of high status.The western suburbs land project involved the interests of various parties. The signing ceremony this time was mainly agreements among a few subcontractors and design firms. These contracts required Cordelia’s signature to be effective.Cordelia was in the restroom. Those who did her makeup were chief artists of top international cosmetic brands. As for the clothing rack that the assistant wheeled over, a few haute couture gowns glittered like fairy dresses. They were specially tailored for her, and there was only one of each in the world.The stylists were discussing which dress Cordelia’s makeup look should go with while she was wielding a signing pen and signing her name seriously on a few documents.Zephyr came in with a knock on the door. He could not help adoring her, looking at her earnest look. He went over to sit next to her and waved at the styl

    “I just want to talk to you.” Nelly looked at her.Cordelia kept a distance from her and scanned the room out of the corner of her eye to see if there was anything she could defend herself with.“Ms. Jenner, I know that I’ll never compare to you in Zephyr’s heart,” Nelly said softly. “But our marriage is fixed by grandpa. The Tanners and the Hamertons have known each other for generations too. This isn’t a relationship he can just cut off!”“I’ve heard this many times,” replied Cordelia. “Ms. Tanner, I’d also like to tell you that some things aren’t meant to be. Some people won’t change their mind because your families have known each other for so long, either.”“I understand.” Nelly kept her eyes on Cordelia. “I’ve actually given up. Since Zephyr doesn’t belong to me, I might as well let go of him. He’ll be much happier being with you too.“But what I want to tell you is that you’d better deserve him.”Cordelia’s heart squeezed.“Hah, to be honest with you, I’ve grown used to e

    Nelly froze. She moved her lips but could not say anything.Cordelia smiled and walked out of the restroom gracefully.She had not wanted to fight for anything, but someone had to provoke her, so she did not mind battling to the end either. Since she had boldly claimed that she was the lady of the Hamertons, she had to show it.She confidently walked into the banquet hall and stood next to Zephyr, holding his arm lightly with grace and composure.“Mm, this dress is a good choice.” Zephyr smiled. “Everyone’s looking at you.”“Could your choice for me go wrong?” She stood next to him endearingly.Robert entered with a few business partners from Feranche.Zephyr nodded with a polite smile and exchanged pleasantries with them. Just when he was going to introduce Cordelia to them, Nelly suddenly walked out from the side.“Zephyr!”Her appearance immediately attracted some gazes.Some people there more or less knew about the Hamertons and Tanners’ relationship. In their impression,

    "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
