Cordelia looked up with clear eyes and told him softly, “I know you mean well, but I hope I can resolve my own problems.

“Coming to Centrolis is a new beginning for me. I want to test my survival ability.”

Zephyr’s gaze was deep and focused as he replied seriously, “You don’t have to be so tough with me around.”

“I’m not trying to be tough,” Cordelia answered gently. “I want to have a world of my own.

“Zephyr, I know that I can depend on you. And you’re a reliable man.” She looked at him. “But as a woman, I can’t lose my ability to earn no matter when.”

Zephyr was overwhelmed. He lifted a hand to stroke her hair. This time, she did not reject him.

He still had a straight face, but his insides bloomed like a flower.

“Cordelia, I just don’t want you to work so hard.”

“I have to learn how to walk on my own.” She chuckled, “And from what I hear, you Hamertons aren’t easy to handle. If I can’t even overcome this small storm out here, where do I gain the confidence to face them in the future?”

Zephyr paused and stared at her. “What did you say?”

“I said, I want to be prepared to enter your world.”

Zephyr’s heart thumped, emotions rippling in his deep eyes.

Cordelia turned away and smiled at the pigeons farther off. As the sun shone on her, her pure and beautiful face brightened his gloomy world instantly.
