Seeing that the man did not react, she thought that what she said might have worked, so she grew bolder and called softly, “Zephyr…

“Zephyr.” She did her best to show that she was the first wife. “If you trust me, I can talk to Ms. Jenner. I can at least ensure that she won’t be afraid of you after discovering your identity and can stay with you!”
