Zephyr frowned. To him, what Alexander said was rather strange.It did not matter that he did not covet Cordelia. What did he mean by he "dared not"?Instead of just speaking normally, he looked down, pursed his lips, and chuckled. What did he mean by all that?Zephyr thought he had met many people. However, when he met Alexander, only then did he realize there were people in the world that he could not see through.After falling into silence for a moment, he said, "You asked me if I recognized you before. I gave it a long, hard thought, but I just can't recall.""It's okay." Alexander maintained a warm smile on his face. "It's all the way back to when we were studying. It makes sense that you forgot.""Your Highness… studied at Walton as well?""That's right." Alexander put his hands together while rubbing his thumbs softly. "It's just that I had bad grades. You definitely never noticed me."However, he was willing to repay his kindness all his life…Zephyr nodded. Half of th
Zephyr stopped with apparent confusion in his eyes.He turned around to look at Alexander. This person did not look like a majestic prince. He looked more like a wife who had made a mistake standing where he was, rubbing his hands."What do you mean… by that, Your Highness?" Zephyr's eyes turned grim."I…" Alexander took a deep breath and said, "I just hope you're not mad at me. That's all."The former squinted. His suppressive aura made Alexander's subordinate step back. He pulled Alexander's sleeve."What's wrong, Your Highness?" His subordinate reminded him.Only then did Alexander realize that he seemed to have lost himself just now. He instantly straightened his back, recovering the look a prince should have.Zephyr glanced at him before turning around to leave.Neil called along the way. He happened to be eager to tease him. "You really knew Prince Alexander since you were young? Why did you say that to him!?""Cousin-in-law, I advise you to stop doing that. Some people
"What!?" It was Zephyr's turn to be shocked. "No!"Wifey, are you going to separate us forever?"I promise! I promise I'll be soft from now on, okay?"He would be… soft from now on?Cordelia's eyes moved, and she could not help but laugh out loud. No matter how majestic and calm he was out there, he would sometimes be incoherent at home. "Sure," Cordelia teased him casually. "If you dare to do that to our son again, you'll be soft forever!""You…"Zephyr glared with his eyes widened.However, Little Zuko was nice to him. He waved his chubby arms, asking him to carry him. Perhaps he wanted to fly like he did again.Zephyr grinned. He thought he would not fight with his wife in front of their son.He'd wait until they were in their room at night…"What are you thinking about?"Zephyr snapped back from those tempting thoughts immediately. "Oh, nothing!""Here, carry our son!" Cordelia frowned.Zephyr was stunned. He carried Zuko but stared at his wife.She did not look rig
Cordelia lifted her doe eyes and asked, "What if you're sick of me?"Zephyr caressed her face. His face was serious yet filled with allure."You had to suffer the pain of giving birth. I'm in debt to you forever. So I won't let you suffer for anything else.""Hubby…"Cordelia hugged him tightly and could not help but cry.Zephyr wiped her tears and chuckled. "You're moved just like that?""Mm-hmm…""What a fool!" He played with her hair.Sunset dyed the sky red. The birds were returning to their nests as night was befalling.He held her hand and told her something that he had been thinking about in all seriousness."Cordelia, should we hold our wedding here?""What?" She was stunned."I mean, our son is already over three months old, yet I still owe you a wedding!" He said while smiling, "I'll give you one in Southeast Aciatic, okay?"…Alexander sat in the cafe until the sun set.When it was time to close, the owner rushed back. He thought he would open until late, but
That voice pierced through the haze in Alexander's life like a light.He did not remember how those people were begging from being beaten up, nor how humble they were when they apologized to him.All he remembered was that it was the first time in his life that he was being protected.The newcomer was like a god that descended, giving him hope and warmth."Are you alright?" He helped him up. "My name's Zephyr Hamerton. I'm the captain of the boxing team.""Zephyr…"Alexander stared at the chiseled face blankly, revealing a smile that was even uglier than a cry.…Alexander suddenly opened his eyes and felt a chill on his back.He looked at the empty coffee cup before him and forced a smile.He had drank so much coffee, so how did he still fall asleep? He even had the same dream…Just when he was going to stand up to leave, his subordinate suddenly tapped on him. He stared at the door."What?" He looked over and was stunned.He saw Victoria walking in slowly with a smile on
Victoria had never taken into consideration that Alexander was her only family in the big palace.Looking at the current situation… He was going to take over the throne instead of her!She bit her lip, and there was hatred in her cold stare now."Ha, there's no need to gloat, brother." She scoffed. "I'll get Neil sooner or later, but you'll never get Zephyr!""I've never thought of having him." Alexander looked into her eyes and enunciated each word. "I just want him to be happy.""Sure. You're so noble and mighty!" Victoria was sarcastic. "I'd like to see if he'd still be happy if he found out your feelings for him!""Sister! You…” Alexander snapped up and clenched his fists. Veins were bulging on his forehead.Victoria was happy. She knew it was his bottom line but was unafraid of crossing it!He should be the one who should be scared!She smirked and put her hand on his shoulder to get him to sit. There was provocation and mockery in her shrill voice. "My cute little brothe
Alexander returned to the palace like a lost soul. It felt as if his energy had been sucked as he sank into the couch weakly.What Victoria said echoed in his ears."Get rid of Aurelia for me! When I sit on the throne and get married to Neil, I guarantee that your secret will remain a secret forever! Also, I can give the Irwins better treatment… Doesn't Zephyr have a son? He's Mr. Irwin's grandson. I will knight him, making him the most glorious kid in the entire Southeast Aciatic!"Alexander kept rubbing between his eyebrows. When he looked up and looked at the crystal plate on the table, he did not see his favorite pineapple among the fruits. He crushed the plate from anger!All of the guards were shocked. They stood where they were, not daring to breathe loudly.The prince was usually nice, and he was polite to people. Many guards in the palace were eager to stay with him.However, it was odd for him to throw a tantrum today…Alexander took a deep breath—he was irritated. He
Alexander was confused. The Neil he knew played drinking games?It was unbelievable!Aurelia quickly invited him into the store and served him the cold rose-flavored jelly she had made.He was nice. They chatted for a little bit and were surprised to find that they had many things to talk about. He said he had been to Melorion, that he had accompanied his uncle many years ago.She chuckled. "Did you visit with the king?""Hmm… I don't think so." He thought about it and shook his head. In reality, he did not have many memories about that matter. Nobody told him why exactly the king had visited Melorian.He only remembered that his uncle had been walking back and forth on a street, seemingly waiting for someone.Alexander sighed softly and rubbed his throbbing temples."What's wrong, Your Highness? I see that you don't look very good." Aurelia looked at him with care.He smiled. "I'm okay.""Do you have something… on your mind?"Aurelia was accurate with her observation.Alex
