Cordelia felt defeated. She said so much, yet he merely gave short responses, seemingly refusing to accept her apology.

When had he ever been so cold to her!?

She pouted and used her trump card. She said coquettishly, “Hubby…”

Robert heard that and almost lost his balance and fell.

Zephyr glared at him. He covered the receiver, returned to his room, and slammed the door!

“Hubby, forgive me okay?

“You’re not talking again! What do you want from me?

“Hubby, are you in Centrolis? Hmph, if you keep being mad at me, I’ll come there and cling to your 24 hours every day. Let’s see how you’re going to train and go to competitions!”

Zephyr finally laughed. His deep and electric voice was sent to Cordelia’s heart through the phone.

“Be a good girl,” he said. “I’ll be home soon!”

“Hmm, okay!”

Robert stood outside the door for a while. He was relieved to hear the laughter in the room.

It was fortunate that it was not Cordelia who had gotten into trouble last night. Otherwise, Yale’s grave would definitely be on Splendor Mountain tomorrow!

When the door was opened, Zephyr walked out with a smile on his face. He was clearly in a good mood.

“Get the driver. We’ll go out later.”

Robert was stunned. “What?”

“Cordelia asked me to get some local specialties from Centrolis for her.”

What? He was going to buy them himself?
