“There’s an exclusive interview next week.”

Zephyr looked at her, turning on her computer. A man’s pictures and information appeared on the screen again.

This time, she seemed to be interviewing the best actor, Neil Harris.

Zephyr’s face dimmed again as a wave of jealousy surged in him. He was on the verge of exploding.

“You’re… interviewing him?” He tried his best to calm down.

Neil was a popular, good-looking man in the industry, and he was known to be loved by all. His image had always been the humble and polite young man, and he had won five important Best Actor awards when he was so young.

Cordelia had to thoroughly prepare before interviewing him, just like when she memorized Josiah’s information like the back of her hand.

Then they would talk face to face. As an outstanding reporter, she would definitely not allow any moment of awkward silence. She would try her best to find something to talk about, to chat with him.

Zephyr took a deep breath and stood quietly behind her in silence.

Cordelia felt something was off. When she turned her head, she almost jumped due to his grim face!

“W-Why are you staring at me like that?”

He said nothing.

Cordelia looked at her computer and then at him. She instantly understood now.

She was not sure whether to laugh or cry. “This is my job! Also, he’s the best actor, and I’m just a regular reporter. I might not be able to set an interview with him!”

Zephyr was stunned. “Then why did your boss give you the mission?”

“To trouble me, I guess!” Cordelia smiled.

She had interviewed a few influencers and had taken some exclusive interviews before. Her boss was happy with the high ratings due to her unique angle and fresh interview style.

However, she had been excluded from the beginning, so she became an eyesore to some of the experienced reporters. It was them who suggested to the boss to interview Neil.

“If I can set an interview with him, then they’ll take the credit, saying that the experienced reporters will have to take it. If I can’t set an interview, I’ll fall into their trap, whereby they’ll say that I’m incapable.”

Cordelia had seen through their intentions. “No matter what, everything I do is wrong.”

Zephyr smirked and placed one hand on her shoulder. “So, what are you going to do?”

“It’s better to try than not!” She smiled carefreely. “What if I make it?”

“Mm-hmm.”

“Zen.” She turned her head and looked at him with her bright eyes. “W-Will you help me?”

When Cordelia got off work and returned home, she saw that Zephyr was playing a card game with her mother.

The card game was unique, with complicated rules. It tested a person’s logical thinking and patience. Her mother taught her to play it when she was young, but she could never learn. Xyla never played the card game again from then on.
