This stumped Aurelia.“Why… He doesn’t like it?”“No!” Cordelia hurried to say, “I’m just curious. He’s my cousin and an award-winning actor with many fans in Centrolis. Why is he an uncle when it comes to you?”Aurelia looked down slightly with a blush.She gripped the glass and rubbed it with her finger anxiously, but the corners of her lips were discreetly ticking upward.Why was he called an uncle? It was because Neil was a man who was mature, stable, and had a cold hint in her first impression, just like… the merciless assassins in mystery novels.Back then, she genuinely thought he was an uncle she could not approach.Later, the term of address became her special way of addressing him. She called everyone else by their names. It was only different when it came to him.“Uncle” put distance between them and avoided suspicions from others.The feeling was strange. She missed him when she did not see him but was afraid when she did see him, worried that others would see thro

Ava was furious, but she did not have the courage to show it in front of Cordelia. She was also scared of Zephyr. There would be more trouble if he saw her.She took a glance at Aurelia, who was next to Cordelia, and vented all her rage on her.“Hah, since you say so, I’ll be going back first. I’ll visit you next time! But, Cordelia, you should watch out. You’re pretty far along now and should be careful in various aspects, especially not to keep people of unknown backgrounds around you!”“What did you say?” Cordelia paused in her steps and snapped her head back at Ava.Ava’s smile was cunning as she purposely looked at Aurelia.“I’m always available if you need company, Cordelia! But you don’t even know where certain people come from, and you dare let them live in your house? You trust her just because she knows some embroidery and modeling?”Aurelia froze. She was flustered as she quietly let go of her hold on Cordelia’s arm.Cordelia took her hand back and placed it in her pa

Cordelia said seriously, “I don’t know which kind of people you’re talking about, Ava. I only know that some people don’t have a good birth, but their hearts and characters are noble. I like keeping people like this around!“Some people, though, don’t know their place when they’re already leeching off someone else and have been doing nothing but despicable deeds. People like this who are vipers in the family should be caught instead!”Cordelia snickered. “Ana, am I right?”Ava did not manage to get any advantage out of the situation and turned to flee.“Close the door,” Cordelia told the butlers. “Chase her away if you hear the dog barking again next time. Why did you wait for me to come and fight?”The butlers looked at each other and tried to hold back their laughs. Their madam was really interesting—she did not even break out into curses to scold someone.“Betty!” Cordelia chuckled. “Make us two cups of milk tea, please!”The housekeeper quickly jogged to the kitchen.Cordel

Aurelia was stunned. She honestly had not thought about the future.To people like her, another day alive was another day blessed. Survival was the most important.As for what she would do in the future, what kind of house she would live in, or even if she would get married or not, these seemed like matters of another world to her.“Your biggest issue being here is that you’re undocumented.” Cordelia considered it. “We’re going back to Centrolis after I give birth. If you don’t mind, you can come back with me. Zephyr might have a way to take care of your identity documentation.”“No, no…” Aurelia waved a hand. “I can’t trouble you all anymore! I actually haven’t done anything for you, but you’re all so nice to me…”Cordelia felt a pinch in her nose.The girl had spent sleepless nights embroidering that she was over-exhausted and had even saved the day during the launch.Moreover, she had saved Fredric’s life. While the man had been battling death, she had even wanted to use all

The more Cordelia listened to her, the more worried she got.“Aurelia, I better send some bodyguards to go with you…”“It’s really okay!” Aurelia cracked a grin. “I’m familiar with that area. Besides, I move around easier alone. Other than getting my stuff, I want to say goodbye to the old nomad lady and the others. I wouldn’t be as comfortable with the bodyguards following me!”“Then—”“Bye-bye, Cordelia!” Before Cordelia finished her sentence, Aurelia ran off like a deer, turning back to beam at her. “I won’t come back tonight. I’ll bid them a good farewell! See you tomorrow!”Cordelia was heavy in movement and did not get to call the bodyguards in time. Aurelia ran fast too and vanished in the blink of an eye.When Zephyr came back at night, they lay on the bed. He was working on the laptop while Cordelia tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.“Honey, what’s wrong?” Zephyr tucked her in carefully. “Is your belly making you uncomfortable? Don’t keep lying on your left. Tu

Cordelia flashed a sweet smile. “I knew you were hungry, darling!”Zephyr was rendered speechless.“What do you want to have, honey?”A multiple-choice question appeared in Zephyr’s mind, but the crux was choosing the correct answer. He thought their housekeeper had been caring for Cordelia’s daily life since she arrived in Melorian, so Betty’s culinary skill must be alright…“Why don’t we have steak and bun?”Cordelia stayed quiet, looking at him.“No, no, I’m the one who wants that!” Zephyr backtracked hastily.Cordelia was still silent.“Then… I want spaghetti? Mac and cheese? Fried chicken and fries?”The shiny pair of eyes across Zephyr blinked, her face still expressionless.Realization struck the man. “Oh, I know! I want Acian food!”Cordelia smiled. “What kind?”It seemed that Zephyr was getting closer to the correct answer! He was thrilled and named everything he could think of.Soy-sauced meatballs? Acian sausages with vegetables?Why did it seem like he was get

Cordelia paused before a fit of giggle burst out."Sorry, darling." She felt kind of bad as she turned to look at him. "I'll go explain to them that I'm the one who suddenly felt like having in-flight meals, not you…""No need." Zephyr held her hand. "Just turning silly in my prime, I can take it!""I…" Cordelia did not know what was going on with her either. Her palate had turned weirder these days. She kept craving odd food.She had wanted airline meals for a long time and thought it would pass if she suppressed it, but the thought only grew stronger. It was not like she found the food delicious in the past."Pregnant women crave lots of different things. Can't be helped." Zephyr's gaze was tender as he kissed the back of her hand. "What I can do is satisfy your cravings as much as possible!""Why are you so nice to me…""Because your husband is your superman!""Zephyr…" Cordelia felt like crying.There was always a man who loved her and indulged her unconditionally in this

Aurelia’s eyes widened as she paled as if she saw a ghost. She quickly adjusted her emotions and forced a smile.After all, this was how she managed all these years.“Hi, James! You’re free today?”James kept his eyes on the metal box that she did not get to hide in time. It seemed that the girl had been making good money recently!James was one of the gang members on the street. He was not capable and was ugly, so he was often bullied by the other thugs when he first joined the gang.His psychological state gradually became twisted in such an environment. After years of hard work, when he finally became a thug with a slightly higher status, he began to bully the weak around him as revenge, often beating people up to the point of bleeding when he collected protection fees.Aurelia had seen it plenty of times. The lady next door who died from losing too much blood had died because she did not hand in the fee in time. His underling had stabbed her three times.This was why she n

"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
