Winter passed, and spring came. Cordelia’s baby bump grew in the blink of an eye as she was nearing five months.

Without the morning sickness, her appetite improved, and the baby grew well. Her stomach was bigger than regular pregnant women's.

Other than the big belly, however, her limbs were slim, and she looked more radiant day after day.

She could feel the baby’s movement and imagined how cute it was to turn around or stretch in her womb, letting out giggles involuntarily. The bliss of being a mother was evident in her, and others wished her the best genuinely when they saw it.

Rowan was the first to lose his composure. With the excuse of observing the medical standard of the joint hospital, he came to Centrolis again. This time, he checked Cordelia on his own.

After combining both modern medicine and a holistic approach, the final conclusion was reached—Cordelia was carrying a baby boy!

Once the news got out, the Hamertons blew up.

Liam was so happy that he barely slept, fo

    “Honey, I dreamed that it’s a really handsome boy.” Cordelia snuggled him by the shoulder. “He’s around three or four in my dream, and he’s fair and plump like a little rice dumpling, waving his arms to ask me to carry him!“He looks like you.” Cordelia looked into Zephyr’s eyes. “Like a mini you!”Zephyr’s heart skipped a beat.“Is he also… fierce?”“How do you know?” Cordelia giggled. “I even dreamed that he yelled at you. But his voice was so soft that he was so cute even when he shouted at you!”Zephyr was speechless. How did he know? He had dreamed about him too! That aggressive little dumpling had even hugged his wife in front of him—as a provocation!Zephyr held Cordelia’s hand abruptly, and his grip grew harder. He was only snapped out of his daze when she gasped in pain.“Sorry, sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you…”“Don’t come over!”“Huh?”Cordelia pouted. “I’m afraid of the heat now. Don’t stay close to me.”Zephyr smiled weakly and could only keep a distance from h

    The men gathered in the bar’s private room. It was rare for them to relax.Many good things had happened lately. Josiah and Kelly were engaged. They were going to get married a year later.

They would work together at the operating table in the future.Nicholas was confused. Why were these academic tyrants so dramatic even in love?

    A few days later, Cordelia followed Zephyr to Melorian.The journey was a smooth one. She no longer had morning sickness and did not feel uncomfortable. After two days of jet lag, she was full of energy again.She wanted to check out the city.It was where Zephyr had grown up. It was not as gloomy as Ricos, and it was sunny every day. Each building was packed with history.The city had this unique sturdiness. Coupled with the sunset and the pigeons flying by the top of the church, it became a beautiful scene.Cordelia fell in love with this place.Zephyr held her hand and took her through the streets. They would watch matches at Old Clifford, look at peculiar items at Northern Point, and feed pigeons at Rylands Square.He used to only come here when he was sad. He had never thought he would take his beloved wife here one day.The pigeons at the square seemed to have gained weight. Life was good here.“Do you like this place?” He hugged her from behind.Cordelia’s belly was gr

    “No matter what, I want to fight with you.” Cordelia held his hand and looked into his eyes. She was gentle but determined. “Haven’t it always been like this? We promised that we wouldn’t let each other face everything alone.”Zephyr felt warmth in his heart. He played with her hair.He chuckled a moment later and said, “Mm-hmm, you’re right. Then what do you want to do, wifey?”“I haven’t thought about it yet.” She smiled. Her stomach rumbled as she was hungry again.Rather embarrassed, she looked at her husband while blushing.He pulled her into his embrace and laughed out loud.“Wifey, I know what you should do now. You should just start a Southeast Aciatic restaurant here. You can eat while making money! It’s perfect!”Cordelia jumped up to punch him.He voluntarily bent down for her to hit him. If she used more energy now, she would eat more later.They walked toward the hotel in the city center while fooling around in laughter.Not far away, a few pairs of eyes were wat

    Cordelia was stunned and failed to react.Meanwhile, the lady introduced herself naturally. “You’ve never met me, cousin-in-law. I’m Ava, my dad is Noah. I’m sure you’ve met my dad!”“Oh!” Cordelia came to a realization. “So, you’re Zen’s cousin.”“That’s right!” Ava smiled.Cordelia had seen Zephyr’s uncle at the family dinner.He was a strange man. He was plump like a ball, and he looked wicked when he smiled. His existence made one uncomfortable.It was said that he was also the person among the Bakers who was against Janine and Zephyr the most.He would always say privately: “Why get someone with a different family name to take over the Bakers’ matters?”However, he would flatter them when they were around.Ava was not Noah’s daughter. She was his wife’s daughter with another man. They said she was great at pleasing the adults. He loved her, giving her the life of a princess.Nobody in the Bakers dared to say that she was a drag.It was said that she had asked to change

    Ava’s face was flushing and turning pale. She stood aside, looking terrible.With a look from Zephyr, the maids around moved the food from the table to the trash can.“I heard at the door that you only bought her breakfast because you didn’t know what gift to get when you’re meeting her the first time?” His eyes were cold as he looked at Ava.Ava quickly nodded without knowing what he really meant.“You brought those things the first time you visit?” He scoffed. “Didn’t your parents teach you etiquette when you visit someone?”She was shocked. “Cousin—”“Although you’re uncle’s stepdaughter, you grew up in the Bakers.” Zephyr glanced at her expressionlessly. “Go home to ask your parents what to do in situations like this.“You’re meeting me and my wife this time. Don’t embarrass yourself again when you visit someone else in the future. Don’t humiliate our family!”Ava’s shoulders were shaking as she clenched the side of her clothes with one hand.Zephyr ordered coldly, “Send t

    “He has the mind of a 10-year-old child. He knows some stuff, but not too much.”Cordelia nodded.Therefore, it made sense that he was rude and that it was hard to communicate with him sometimes.As such, out of guilt, Janine did not mind what he said.“Not only my mom, but my grandfather is patient with him too,” said Zephyr. “He married Hannah, who is Ava’s mom.“But he’ll listen to whatever she says. She has her fingers around him, which is a headache to my grandfather. My mom has spoken to him a couple of times, and he dared to fight back. That’s why they’re not as close now.”Cordelia understood now.Perhaps Noah did not get the terrible behavior and reputation from himself. Instead, someone was ordering him to do what he did.Zephyr patted her head. “Cordelia, I told you all this so that you can be aware, not to exhaust you mentally.”“Mm-hmm, I know!” She smiled. “My mission here is to rest well and give birth to our son!”…Ava had been trying to get close to Cordeli

    An hour later, Cordelia arrived at Melorian Airport’s arrival hall.Trinity walked out of the VIP lane while pushing two big boxes. She ran toward Cordelia while cheering as soon as she saw her.The latter was happy. She could not run due to her heavy body, so she walked slightly faster to welcome her.Trinity dared not touch her. She only gave her a soft hug and touched her belly.“It’s so big!” she said while smiling. “Seems like this fella is very well-fed. I’m sure he’ll be a fat baby. It’s going to be fun! I don’t care, I have to be his godmother. I must be the first one to carry him!”“Okay, okay!” Cordelia could not stop laughing. “You’re not his godmother. You might become his aunty by then…”“Hey!” Trinity stared at her, her cheeks red.Zephyr got his men to carry her bags. He nodded at her with a smile.Trinity held Cordelia’s arm and walked in front.They said a woman could be louder than 300 sparrows.Now that 600 sparrows were gathered, Zephyr could only stand as

    "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
