Zephyr was rendered speechless.If Cordelia made up her mind that she would not have kids anymore, would that not mean… He could not fool around with her in the bed anymore…Having kids was second—it would be terrible if they could no longer fool around!What was wrong with him lately? He said something wrong or was close to saying something wrong!He quickly grabbed her shoulders and whispered into her ear, "That's not what I meant, wifey! I-I mean, I said before that I'd spoil you like you're like my daughter!"Cordelia chuckled. "Oh, please!""I'm serious." He was smiling with his eyes. "In my life, I only want a "daughter" like you…""You b*stard!"Nobody knew when Rowan entered the side palace. Zephyr locked eyes with his father-in-law, who was in disbelief as soon as he lifted his head."What nonsense are you talking about?"Zephyr was at a loss for words."How dare you say that?"Rowan was disinfecting his needles, so he picked one up conveniently in an attempt to st
Rowan puffed his cheeks while squinting as he stared at Zephyr. He stretched one hand into his pocket and was excited as he squeezed his needle box.A gibberish, sweet voice suddenly came from afar away at that moment. "Grandpoo!"Rowan was stunned.He saw Zuko run to him in a wobbly manner. From afar, he looked like a fair and chubby mochi. His eyes were so big that he could melt someone's heart.He was smiling extra brightly under the sun. God seemed to have put everything good in his dimples.Cordelia was not sure whether to laugh or cry. She quickly corrected him. "Darling, it's grandpa! Grandpa!"Rowan's heart softened. He did not care whether he was called "grandpa" or "grandpoo". It was music to his ears as long as his darling grandson called him.At that moment, he did not know that he was smiling brightly. He called out loudly while opening his arms. "Hey! Grandpoo is here. Grandpoo is here to see my little darling!"Cordelia and Zephyr looked at each other. They held
Zephyr was rendered speechless.Watching her husband's change of expression that came so suddenly, Cordelia laughed until she lost her breath.…Someone walked in when Victoria was going to take a nap."Your Highness, Her Majesty asked for you."Victoria's heart jolted. It was Carmella's maid. The queen had always been good to her maids that she would not get them to do anything during their rest time in the afternoon.Perhaps Carmella had heard about Neil's incident to be wanting to see her at this time.Victoria calmed herself down and picked up her spirit. She got her maids to help her with her clothes and makeup before rushing to the main palace.The queen had asked to see her in a secret room in the main palace.The wooden door closed and released a thud after she walked in. It was dimmed there. The queen stood facing the wall. Her back was skinny, but she was majestic.Victoria walked forward and bowed."Aunt—"Before Victoria was done speaking, she was slapped again
Neil had been in the hospital.He was in the VIP ward at the burns unit on the top floor.He had to be treated properly as he had lost a layer of skin on both arms. The doctors had wrapped his arms like dumplings. If one did not look carefully, his arms looked like a robot's.He could not use his hands, so he could not play games on his phone. The only thing he could do was stare at the ceiling on the bed. He would count how many lines were made of the carving on it.Fortunately, Aurelia asked for leave from the tailor's shop and stayed by his side every day.She thought he was only hurt because he was protecting her. Apart from guilt, the love from before had accumulated into a quick stream that drowned her heart.She would feed him herself, as well as wipe his body.Neil was hesitating at first.However, after getting used to it a third or fourth time, he was enjoying it now.Aurelia was gentle when she wiped him. Her hands were soft, and the temperature of the towel was per
Aurelia was surprised at first.She figured it out after being stunned for a second. This man had his arms wrapped like two buns, so he could not take off his pants…She felt rather awkward, and her cheeks blushed. She said softly, looking down, "I-I'll go get the nurse!""I'm going to pee my pants if I'm going to wait for the nurse to come!""I—""Get in here now!" Neil frowned. "Just loosen my pants for me."Aurelia looked down. Though it was awkward, she felt sweet.As such, she did as he said. She walked to him and helped him to the toilet. He spread his legs and signaled her with a nod."Remove it now!"Aurelia suddenly thought it was funny. She could not help but laugh out loud."Why are you laughing?""You're a man, yet you forced a lady to remove your pants for you!""You…" Neil's cheeks flushed. "You damned girl! Would I have to do this if you didn't feed me so much soup the entire afternoon? Quickly, I'm losing it!""Oh…"Aurelia held back her laughter and remov
The footsteps were approaching. Neil suddenly realized that the door was opened. Just when he was going to get Aurelia to close it, he looked up and saw Carter, who was dumbstruck at the door.What he saw was—Neil was standing at the toilet with his legs spread wide while Aurelia was standing before him while bending. She had a pair of scissors in her hand.And the scissors were going…Carter inhaled sharply!"No, stop!"Aurelia's hand trembled, and the scissors fell onto the floor.She looked at Carter and then Neil—she was flushing. She covered her face and ran out as if she was running for her life.Carter did not have time to go after her as he quickly checked Neil's situation."Cuz, is that lady crazy?" He was in disbelief. "It'd be terrible if she cut your thing off!"Would the general not have an heir if that happened?Neil looked like he wanted to die as his eyes lost their color. He looked at Carter helplessly, unable to utter a word."Cuz, are you okay?"Cuz, I ca
Zephyr pouted. He was not like a pufferfish!"Tell me, what's up?""I just want to talk to someone."He frowned. "You can't find anyone else?"Neil was annoyed. "I just want to talk to you. Why do you have so many questions? I know you're happy with your wife and son, but can you pity a single man?"Zephyr got it now. Neil was talking about Aurelia again.He chuckled softly and turned his face to look at Cordelia, who was still sleeping. He whispered, "Your address.""Come to the cafe next to the hospital. Let's have breakfast together."He hung up right away.Soon, Zephyr rushed to the cafe. He could not help but be stunned when he saw the table filled with food."Although you're not shooting any movies now, please watch your weight!" Zephyr stood in front of him, looking serious. "You're Imperial Media's talent, after all. I'm your boss!"Neil glanced at him indifferently and continued to eat the beef burger in his hands.The gauze on his arms had been removed. He could h
Although Neil was in the entertainment industry, he had the backing of his family. Everything had been smooth sailing for him. He had never experienced suffering, so it was only natural that he did not understand the meaning of money.To him, money was just numbers.However, it was the first time he heard Zephyr discuss money. What he said made sense."So, if Aurelia is willing to spend on me, it'll prove she definitely likes me?""Um…" Zephyr scratched his chin. "Yes, theoretically."Neil was as excited as if he had hit the jackpot. He instantly took out his phone to call Aurelia."Hey, I saw a belt that I like. It costs $400!"Zephyr almost spat the coffee. He widened his eyes to stare at the weirdo in front of him.That was not right. The best actor had been in so many movies that he should be smarter. How could he use his script exactly!?Perhaps Aurelia said nothing that Neil frowned and continued to test her. "Hey, did you hear me?"No way. It's only $400, and you're sc
