Chapter 805

Author: Breaking Wave
Since the guest was already there, it did not make sense for Cordelia and Zephyr to chase him away.

Cordelia held Zephyr's arm as they followed behind Alexander. The Irwins often hosted royals at Irwin Manor, but they rarely hosted anyone at this hour.

Fortunately, Alexander was nice. They only got a butler to stay, as they did not need any fanfare.

After the butler served snacks, Zephyr got him to leave.

They were the only three people left in the living room.

Cordelia was eager to laugh when she saw his angry face. She secretly held his hand, showing him a warm and determined face.

Zephyr's face instantly perked up, and he started smiling gently now. They looked at each other, seemingly forgetting that there was someone with them. They seemed to only have each other in their eyes.

"Ahem!"

Alexander faked a cough to pull them back to reality.

Cordelia let go of Zephyr's hand immediately, but the latter stopped that from happening. The second she let go, he held her hand tight

    In the next second, Zephyr saw Alexander's warm eyes."Mr. Z, we've been chatting for so long, yet you don't recognize me?""What are you talking about?" Zephyr frowned.Alexander smiled and turned around to leave. Zephyr was confused. He searched through every corner of his memory but could not find anything about this person.Perhaps he was just trying to be mysterious.If he had fallen for Cordelia, he would do all he could to mess with him to sneak in.Zephyr calmed down and sent Alexander out himself.When he returned to the living room, Cordelia was already there."How's our son?" he asked."I've just fed him, and he's sleeping now.""Oh," he said flatly and quickly got upstairs.Cordelia followed behind, watching him as he stopped at the nursery and headed to their room.Subsequently, she saw his eyes of disbelief when she looked up."Y-You put him on our bed?""Shh! Lower your voice!" She quickly shoved him into the guest room. "Don't wake our son!"Zephyr star

    Cordelia knew that she could not run away again this time.Zephyr buried his face in her neck and took a deep breath in as he spoke. "Darling, let's sleep here tonight…""But our son is in the room on his own…""So what? Men have to learn independence from a young age!""He'll be scared if he wakes up!""So, you're saying you're sleeping with him again?"His voice raised together with his eyebrows.Ever since Zuko had turned one month old, Zephyr had decorated the nursery himself. He had said boys should learn to be independent since they were young as he excitedly put him in the room.However, Cordelia would bring him to their big bedroom. For the convenience of feeding, she would let their son sleep next to her.At first, Zephyr would still have space in the bed.Cordelia had read some articles on the Internet and was worried that Zephyr would turn and kill their son when he was sleeping, so…As long as their son was in the room, her husband would become so insignificant t

    "What are you thinking about?" Cordelia looked at Zephyr with her big eyes. "You're smiling so happily!""I'm thinking about what would happen to us if we stayed in Jangasas instead of moving."Cordelia was stunned. "I think we wouldn't be happy.""Why not?""I know you miss the simple life we had in Jangasas." She looked at him in all seriousness. "But it's impossible for us to stay simple. We must face the toughness of life and the dramas among people."Since we have to face that, I'd rather do it in Centrolis or here. At least we have our family's support!"Zephyr smiled lightly. She was getting more and more mature."I kind of like the simple life before," he said. "But I like the complicated life we have now too."No matter what, I love it when I have you in my life."Cordelia's eyes lit up, and she smiled.Zephyr held her hands as he enunciated each word. "So, wifey, don't meet Alexander on your own ever again!"She was rendered speechless and smiled helplessly. There

    Victoria felt guilty, so she looked away.However, she soon looked back and stared straight at Alexander.Ha, what a joke! She was a princess, so why should she be guilty? She had the almighty power. Must she accept the judgment for fighting Cordelia, a commoner?Alexander shut his eyes and let out a long sigh.'She is hopeless!'Their character had been different since they were young. His sister loved to show off, while he kept a low profile.However, every time she made a mistake, he would also be dragged into it. After all, they were family. Outsiders would not care who was the one who really made the mistake. They would blame everything on royalties.Alexander looked at her and asked again, "Sister, do you dare to swear?"Victoria was mad from the humiliation."Who do you think you are? Why must I swear to you?""Ha, so you don't dare?"She pursed her lips and froze where she was.Southeast Aciatic was a religious country. Swearing was a holy and grand thing. The local

    Alexander hesitated before softly saying, "If you like Neil, I'll ask him to meet you."Victoria paused and smirked.Her younger brother was soft-hearted. He would consider their familial bond as long as she talked nicely to him. Therefore, if someone were to stab Alexander in the heart one day, he would never suspect that the person who handed over the knife was Victoria.Victoria replied with a smile, "Thank you. But I think the rules of the royal family are important. Our marriages have never been ours to decide. If the Harrises don't have the intention, it'll be useless for me to keep up on my end!"Alright, I'm tired after all this chatting. I don't want to think about it for now."Alexander nodded and watched his sister leave. The furrow of his brows remained even after Victoria was no longer seen in the night.She would not give up so easily based on his understanding of her.Cordelia had already offended her, but not only was Cordelia the heiress of the Irwins, but she

    "Ah!" the person cried out of surprise.Cordelia ran to the cradle and protected her son with herself while she fought the person with her life. She hit him with her eyes closed, and the man retreated.Little Zuko, who was in the cradle, was startled awake and wailed."Stop hitting me! Stop hitting!"Your son's crying, and you're still hitting me!"Cordelia, it's me!""Who!?" Cordelia froze abruptly. Her hands clutching her purse hovered in the air.The man, who was one head taller than her, curled up with his hands shielding his head, looking pitiful from being beaten up.The air went silent suddenly…From the gap between his two arms, the man revealed his face to look at her in terror."You… Neil?" Cordelia was shocked.Neil wore a bitter expression as he pulled a long face.Cordelia snapped out of the surprise and could care less about him as she twirled around to carry her son and coax him.A few security guards arrived with electrical batons in their hands, only for C

    As Aurelia looked at the glowing insect in her palm, she was so happy that she was at a loss for words. Her big fluttering eyes at Neil contained joy that she had never encountered in the first 18 years of her life."It's really like…" Her voice carried a tinge of a sob from how emotional she was. "It's really like I've got a star!"Neil could not help the lift in the corners of his lips. He was happier than her seeing her so happy. He did not know why he had taken her here today. He just knew his heart would explode if he kept suppressing some things."Aurelia, I—"Before he could get on, Aurelia interrupted him excitedly. "Uncle, where's this? It's like a paradise!"I've been to so many places in Melorian, but none as beautiful as this place!"Neil chuckled. "This is the Irwins' garden, also Sabe's rainforest. Look at the fireflies closely. They have two sets of wings!"Aurelia took a look and was delightfully surprised, giggling in glee.Neil's gaze turned tender unknowingly

    "Uncle!" The sweet voice rang in the forest abruptly.Aside from the sweet voice and tinkling giggle that greeted Neil, there was also… a frog that she held in her hands!He was shocked when Aurelia thrust her hands forward to show him the frog!Neil had always hated the cold and slimy cold-blooded animals. The frog stared at him with its beady eyes before letting out a loud croak after a while.All Neil felt was a loud rush of blood to his head before his scalp went numb, and he let out a loud, involuntary "Ah!".Aurelia jumped in surprise and could not help tightening her hold on the frog as she stared wide-eyed at Neil.Neil's face reddened like a boiled shrimp a while later as his lips pressed into a thin line. There was a moment of silence before his voice rumbled like a volcano eruption. "Aurelia!"The girl froze.Neil was shaking in rage. Had she just gone after a frog while he professed his love!?Both of them stared right into each other's eyes—Neil's were bubbling wi

    "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
