During the flight, the girl’s sweet innocence, her whispers in his ears, how she snuggled against him… and their passionate time together filled his mind. Zephyr wanted to go back despite having just arrived at Centrolis.

The butler came out to welcome him and brought him to Liam’s study.

“Mr. Zephyr, it’s great that you’re back.” The old butler got emotional. “Sir Hamerton has finally managed to wait for this day!”

Zephyr furrowed his brows. “What’s wrong with grandpa?”

“He naturally isn’t doing as well as he used to as he ages.” The butler sighed.

“Has the doctor taken a look?”

“Yes. All the tests that should be done are done as well. But Mr. Zephyr… he’s an old man now. Aging is part of life. The doctor says that it’s already great how Sir Hamrton’s maintaining his health!”

“Mm.” Zephyr nodded and entered the study room.

Liam had just finished some double-boiled tonic, and the servants left when they saw Zephyr coming in.

The study smelled of tea’s fragrance as Liam fiddled with the tea set. His hair was silver, and he wore a black silk suit. The lines at the corner of his eyes made him look even sterner. The dragon-headed cane stayed next to him.

Zephyr stood before him. His strong innate sense of presence and authority mirrored Liam’s exactly.

“You’re back?” Liam looked up at him with a blank face.

“Yes, grandpa.”

Liam paused. He was direct as he tossed the statement out and spoke, his aged voice brimming with authority. “I need your explanation.”
