One of them was there to accompany Cordelia for her delivery, while the other one was there to study Noah's condition."Dad, how is it?" Cordelia asked in worry.Rowan shook his head lightly with a grim expression. Zephyr's heart sank."I can do my best to treat him." Rowan looked at them. "But don't have too much hope. It's not something treatable in a short time, and just medicine isn't enough. Rehab training is required too.""Mm." Zephyr nodded. "Thanks, dad."Xyla sighed and said, "Actually, your mom came to me before when Noah had just fallen from the horse. My dad was the one who treated him then, and my grandpa joined. They could only ensure that his condition wouldn't worsen. It might not be easy for him to recover to being fully abled.""It's great that it didn't worsen." Rowan patted her shoulder. "A brain injury remains a challenge in the medical field to this day."Zephyr hung his head in silence. He was sad, but when thinking about it from another perspective, his

Cordelia felt a squeeze in her heart. She turned around and leaned in Zephyr's embrace softly. He would always give her a sense of security.She slept soundly that night. When she woke up the next day, she realized Zephyr was no longer next to her.However, the fragrance of toasted bread came from downstairs.With her huge belly, she went to check it out. Zephyr was busy working in the kitchen. The domestic staff stood quietly, watching him create chaos in the kitchen."Wifey, you're up?" Zephyr stretched his neck to smile at her.Cordelia suddenly recalled the time when he took the initiative to cook for her when she took leave due to menstrual cramps back in Jangasas. In the end… Not only did he turn the kitchen upside down, but his breakfast was also a burnt egg and oat porridge with very little oat in it.She chuckled and walked over to look.It was much better now. Although the kitchen was messy, he had improved his cooking skills.He made her a rainbow-like breakfast. The

Aurelia was sitting in the police station.There were cameras everywhere in the small room. She knew numerous eyes were watching everything she was doing behind the cameras. Two police officers were standing in front of her. Their expressionless faces were cold, and they stared at her like ice sculptures.She was terrified and did not know what would happen to her. However, she tried her best not to show it. She would lose hope as soon as that happened."Sunny?" One of the local police officers had asked her this question many times. "What's your family name?"Aurelia remained silent. She had been like that since she came in, not uttering a single word."Do you not understand what we're saying?" The other police officer's eyes were fierce. "Do you need an interpreter?"Aurelia sat up straight with her head low. Her curled eyelashes shook slightly.The officers asked all of the questions again like a routine."How did you get to Chaiseland?"What's your usual source of income?

Will was stunned. He said. "I'm afraid you won't see her until she's chased out of the country."Neil shouted emotionally, "Why!?""According to the law, after being questioned, she'll be sent to the border by the authorities. They'll have to watch her leave. And the process is very strict, so you won't be able to see her."Neil's face paled. He fell silent.A moment later, Will said while looking at him, "Mr. Harris, the questioning period usually won't go past five days… So, perhaps you can see her from far away at the police station's door on the last day."Neil was like a deflated balloon. He went back to the couch.Will left the villa.Cordelia and Zephyr sat next to Neil on each side. Just when they were going to talk to him, he suddenly stood up again.They were shocked.He then ran out as if he had gone mad."Hey…" Cordelia yelled at him from behind, but Zephyr pulled her."Let him be. Don't stop him.""Do you know where he's going?""To the police station, of cours

The doctor advised Zephyr to step back. They guaranteed that Cordelia and their child would be fine.He was pacing back and forth in the delivery room.Cordelia did not want him to worry, so she tried her best to bite her lip and remained silent. She pushed according to the doctors' instructions.Perhaps due to the epidural, or perhaps because she had gotten used to the pain and rhythm, she thought it did not seem to hurt as much now."Good, Mrs. Hammerton…" The nurse was helping. "Now, take a deep breath and push!"Go on, push!"We see the baby's head now, Mrs. Hammerton!"Zephyr was dying from anxiety."You're doing great, Mrs. Hammerton. Keep pushing like that!"Hang on. The baby is coming out soon!"Cordelia was numb now. She felt her body seemed to be torn in half. She was no longer in control as the baby kept pushing out of her body itself, forcing her to use all her strength."Wah––"A loud cry suddenly echoed. The war was considered to have stopped for now.Cordeli

The smile that was uglier than a cry made Cordelia laugh."Why do you look like that!?""Because…" Zephyr said softly. "I'm hurting because you're hurting."She smiled and said. "You fool."He caressed her sweaty hair and gave a light peck on her forehead.…The seniors were worried outside the delivery room.Rowan would lean on the door every now and then to check—though there was no gap at all.Xyla was anxious. She had experienced the pain of childbirth. She was in pain that her daughter was going through the same thing.She prayed to herself that she was willing to give everything she had in return for Cordelia and the baby's lives.Janine was anxious too. Apart from the people here, there was an ongoing video call—Henry, Kate, and Zennie were waiting worriedly too.At that moment, a loud cry came. Everyone jumped up as if they were electrocuted and surrounded the delivery room.Soon, the nurse carried that clean baby out to tell them the good news.The corridor was su

"That's right!" The nurse smiled. "Mr. and Mrs. Hamerton, newborn babies are like this. Their heads are pointy because they are squeezed in the birth canal. Everything will go back to normal soon. About him being… ugly? I think he's beautiful! I've been delivering babies for years. It's rare to see such a beautiful baby!"Cordelia and Zephyr lowered their heads to look at their baby again.He seemed to look prettier now.His eyes were closed, and he was sucking his thumb. He was chubby and cute."This baby has a full forehead and round chin. He's a lucky baby!" Rowan could not stop smiling. "Zen, Cordelia, have you guys thought of his name?"They were stunned. They had not thought about that yet.Xyla held her daughter's hand. "Cordelia, you'll need to get the senior's opinion when it comes to naming the baby. I mean, you'll have to ask Zen's grandfather. Get it?""Oh…""What's there to ask!?" Janine waved. "Our Cordelia gave birth to the child. What? Can't the mother give the

Cordelia had yet to breastfeed as she had just given birth. She was hurting from her swollen breasts.The doctor carried Zuko to her. It was a baby's instinct to drink milk. She would feel less uncomfortable after she breastfed.However, it failed after a few attempts.Newborn babies were too weak. Zuko kept crying from hunger, worrying Cordelia."Maybe…" Zephyr licked his lips. "I should help our son?""What?" Cordelia was stunned.They were the only ones in the ward. He placed their son in the cradle while he sat before his wife and removed her shirt.Cordelia was shocked. "What are you doing?!""The baby's weak, but I'm strong!""Zen…"Cordelia was flushing—even her ears were red.However, that sounded like a legitimate solution. They could not just let the baby keep crying."Wifey, I'm not trying to take advantage of you!" Zephyr explained with intention. "I-I just want to feed our son…"Of course, it had been a long time since he last touched her. Thus, he had his int

"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
