“Frederic, this guy’s still sane, right?” Josiah gestured at his head.

Frederic looked at him in disdain.

“Look at how he’s smiling.” Josiah said, “It’s been a whole afternoon, and the corners of his lips are like he’s gotten Botox on them. They won’t come down!”

“He’s going to be a father. What’s abnormal about reading up on childcare?”

“No, but… the results aren’t out yet! Why is he so thrilled?”

“It’s pretty much confirmed, though.” Frederic smiled. “Just get your gift prepared!”

“I’m a little worried.” Josiah rubbed his chin. “If Z just takes Cordelia and their child back, the Hamertons will definitely go crazy, huh?”

Frederic’s gaze dimmed.

“I’ll take Cordelia back.” Zephyr, who had been quiet, spoke suddenly. “She’s my wife whether they accept it or not.”

Josiah chuckled wryly.

A certain someone seemed to have said that he would have nothing to do with a Ms. Cordelia Jenner in the past, that they were people of two different worlds and would not blend in…

“What are you laughing at?” Zephyr gave Josiah a look, and the latter behaved at once.

“The priority isn’t the Hamertons right now. It’s Marcus Grist.” Zephyr’s aloof gaze was tinged with ferocity. “He’s still alive, and Yale has him.

“I need to change the name on the marriage certificate to mine before they do anything!”

That was the only way to protect Cordelia and their child.

“Z, are you sure you want to do that?” Frederic was a little worried. “Your grandfather will blow up if you get married recklessly. When your uncle adds gas to the fire—”

“If I give up on Cordelia because I’m scared of grandpa blowing up on me…” Zephyr replied with a determined gaze, “I don’t deserve her!”

Soon, Cordelia came back from buying the supplies and smiled when she saw Linda taking good care of Nicholas. She talked to the girl for a bit and left with Zephyr.

On the way home, she chit-chatted nonstop like a little pigeon, feeling a weight was lifted off her shoulders. Although Linda did not end up together with Seth as she had expected, she would support her as long as she made her choice!
