Chapter 760

Author: Breaking Wave
"Doesn't matter." Zephyr was indifferent as long as they did not stop. Once the car stopped, it would definitely affect his precious wife's sleep.

The chauffeur could only keep driving around the smooth road until they were almost out of gas and went to a nearby gas station.

As soon as the car stopped, Cordelia woke up as expected. Seeing that it was already bright outside, but they had yet to arrive home, she could not help asking, "What's going on?"

"Madam, you fell asleep. Mr. Hamerton doesn't allow me to stop!" the chauffeur answered with a smile.

Cordelia was stunned. "How long have I slept?"

"Uh… as long as a tank of gas can take us."

Cordelia was surprised and looked up to see the man next to her staring at her lovingly.

"Darling, had a good sleep?"

"Mm!" Cordelia rubbed her hair. It did feel great to sleep until she woke up at her own time.

"Darling, the tank of gas isn't cheap!"

"Oh."

"So…" The man spoke seriously. "Your allowance isn't enough. Can't refill that muc

    The result was out, and the child was not related to Noah as expected.Zephyr's hand shook a little as he clutched the piece of paper. Although he was mentally prepared, he could not help his rage when he saw the result with his own eyes.Although Liam doted on him when he was younger, the Hamertons fought and schemed against each other, so he had not received much warmth from there.It was on his maternal grandfather's side that shone a ray of light on his cold childhood. Zephyr especially could not forget his uncle's affection for him. He would carry him on his shoulders, give him horsey rides, and take him fighting with wooden swords.He was young and did not know how to hold back, always hitting and bruising his uncle, but the latter had never blamed him, merely grinning at him without much care.Each time he returned to Centrolis from Chaiseland, he would cry and bawl about not wanting to leave his Uncle Noah…Now, however, Zephyr would break his uncle's bubble with his own

    After Aurelia left the villa, she wanted to have a drink at a bar, but bars required ID and the law stated that anyone below 21 years old was prohibited from drinking. She tried a few bars in vain and could only leave.Coincidentally, she met her old neighbor, the quiet middle-aged man, on the way. She took the initiative to greet him and chatted, but the man was not good with words. With a smile, he gave her the cans of beer he had just bought.Aurelia needed the alcohol and did not refuse them.Accepting the gift, she sat by the road and started drinking quietly.She had never drunk in the past and nearly spat the beer out in her first sip.Alcohol was good for getting drunk and forgetting, though. Downing two cans, she was pink and could barely walk straight. Her mind was filled with pink bubbles, and even the night sky felt dreamy.Aurelia grinned and recalled what she had said when she first met Neil."Hey, mister, do you want a jacket?"If time could be rewound, she would

    "Uncle…" Aurelia said drunkenly, "I-I have something to tell you…""We'll talk tomorrow." Neil held her by her shoulders. "You drank a lot. Go get some sleep first.""No! It'll be too late tomorrow. You'll leave tomorrow!"Aurelia began to speak nonsense.It was true that some alcohol braved one up. Usually, Aurelia would never dare stay so close to him.Now, not only did she dare cling to him, but she also took advantage of her tipsiness and shoved him into the room, closing the door with a hook of her foot.Surprised, Neil was pushed far away and lost his balance.Both of them got entangled and fell to the bed…Neil was shocked, especially given the position they were in where the girl was on top…From the angle, Aurelia's beautiful face looked even more captivating.The air froze, and even time seemed to stop. Neil could only hear his unusual thumping heart in the quiet space.The moment Aurelia smiled, it was like all the flowers in the world had bloomed."A-Aurelia…" N

    The following day, Aurelia woke up groggily with a blank mind and a splitting headache.When her thoughts came back to her, she recalled what happened last night briefly. She was moody after leaving Cordelia's place and wanted to get drunk but could not due to her non-existent ID.She then ran into her old neighbor. The kind nomad had given her his beer, and she drank, sitting by the road.Then… Then how did she get back to the hotel?From what she could remember, she seemed to have scanned her keycard, but…Aurelia's eyes flew open abruptly.The room's design was different from hers! The faint fragrance on the pillow was the smell of Neil's aftershave! And she—she was lying in Neil's bad!?"Ah!" Aurelia screamed in hysterics.She was doomed, she was done for! She slept with him in her dream yesterday and thought that she could do anything she wanted in her dream, even rated things… so she let it all go and said whatever she should and should not have!Who would have known tha

    With nowhere to retreat, Chuck pulled Hannah over as his hostage.Zephyr looked at him with a blank face."You really think you can threaten me with her?""Hah, she can't threaten you, but she can threaten the fool in your family!"Zephyr's face fell.Chuck did not know that Zephyr already had evidence of his crimes and had handed them to the police. The evidence in Hannah's hands actually did not matter.The men from Southeast Aciatic countered him with their guns."Ask them to put down the guns!" Chuck shouted hysterically, "Or… I'll shoot this b*tch right now!""Zephyr! Zephyr!" Shouts came from afar.Noah ran over frantically and was stopped by Zephyr.He yelled anxiously, "Why are you still standing here? Ask them to put their guns down! Your Aunt Hannah is still with the man!"Zephyr's expression was cold as he looked at Noah. He was the one who had asked for Noah to be brought here.The man had to see it with his own eyes."Sweetheart…" Hannah was about to faint fro

    This was Hannah's fatal blow to Chuck!"Chuck Cole…" Hannah gritted her teeth. "Serves you right! You played with my feelings, cheated my money away, and took my daughter! Hah, the heavens won't let you off easy. You won't have any heirs!"You… kicked me just now. The baby won't make it! You killed your own child. It's you!"Chuck growled and lifted his pistol.When he was about to shoot, the police siren echoed from nearby, and a bullet shot through his wrist. He yelped in pain and fell to the ground with blood splattering.Hannah struggled to get up and staggered a few steps away, but she slipped and fell into the rapid river…The chaos did not last long as the police arrived soon to take control of it.Zephyr left with Noah, escorted by bodyguards.Noah wore a blank face on the way back.Zephyr was a little worried and called out "Uncle Noah" softly, but it was like Noah was possessed. His eyes stared straight with a dazed look, and his mouth was slightly agape, his body tw

    Ava was so thrilled that she lost her voice, and her hand holding the phone shook.She had prepared a gown a long time ago. It was expensive since it was a limited edition designer one, so she had been holding back from wearing it.She finally had a use for it now!The new film press conference was held as scheduled the next day.Before Ava went out, she felt that the apartment had been eerily quiet recently. Chuck had not come to her, and her family servant and chauffeur were gone too.She was the only one left in the spacious apartment. It felt as if she was abandoned on a deserted island.Ava walked out of the door and took a deep breath. People were still walking on the streets, and everything went on as usual. The world did not abandon her.Perhaps, she was only abandoned by Chuck… She gnashed her teeth. As expected, men were not reliable!It was okay, though, as he had already invested the money. She was going to be the female lead of the movie and would shine and succeed

    Ava dashed over like she had lost her mind before Millie could finish.Millie reacted in time and took two steps back, so Ava did not manage to hit her but fell down and screamed hysterically.The reporters were quick to capture the scene, and the cameras' flashes flickered instantly.Trinity saw that it was time and shot her assistant a look. The screen showed Prestige Agency's accounts, where the 15,000,000 Eropah dollars from Chuck came from, and news about Chuck being caught."I'd also like to announce something." Trinity was calm and authoritative. "There've been rumors previously saying that Ms. Baker's joining the production as the female lead with the investment funds she's bringing in. I can clarify this now…"Ms. Ava Baker did join with the funds, but the amount, 15,000,000 Eropah dollars, is actually for money laundering for criminals!"I, Trinity Lulham, as a filmmaker with conscience, will hand all illegal funds to the police and work with them the best I can!"Ava

    "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
