“He even held a welcome dinner for you tomorrow night at the Splendor Dynasty.” Robert chuckled. “They’re spreading the news that the Hamertons are using the dinner for a wife search for you. So not only the ladies from Centrolis will be there tomorrow, but many will also come from other places.”

“Hah. My second uncle is putting so much effort into my marriage.” Zephyr scoffed. “I believe he has been picking girlfriends for me since I was in university?”

Matthew had introduced over ten women to Zephyr throughout the years. Each of them had been under his uncle’s orders, but Zephyr had seen through all of them. He had mercilessly chased them out of Centrolis.

He wondered what game he would play at the setup dinner tomorrow.

“Are Josiah and Fredric back?” Zephyr played with the plants on the balcony in a relaxed manner.

“They are.” Robert nodded. “They’ll be at the dinner tomorrow.”

“Okay, ask them to watch out, especially Josiah. Don’t let him drink too much. He spews nonsense whenever he does that.”

Zephyr went upstairs when he was done.

He suddenly felt the stairs were extremely long as if he could not get to the end no matter what.

He felt tired as he made his way to his room. He laid his hand on his forehead as he lay on the bed. He was missing the tiny place he rented in Jangasas.

There was also the fragrance of flowers on the balcony. They were irises Cordelia had planted herself. She loved basking in the sun on the chair. She had a dazzling smile when sunlight hit her face.

Zephyr got up to the cloakroom, took a belt, and caressed it for a long time.

It was the belt that Cordelia had gotten him.

She had only had $400 in her account back then and transferred him the money without hesitation since he said he liked the belt. She even eased the situation, saying, “A wife should buy her husband belts. It’s to bind you to me!

“We must get a good one since we’re spending the money. It’s durable, so we’ll be bound forever!”

He smirked in sweetness.
