“Okay!” Carter grinned, his heart falling back into its place.

Cordelia was quite surprised. He had resolved something so huge instantly? It would not be good for Carter if Zephyr had pressured the school using his status. After all, the one who stood out would be targeted. She also hoped that Carter could study and focus in peace.

How was he going to do that now?

It was as if Zephyr could read her mind as he whispered next to her ear, “I was afraid that you’d be upset, so I didn’t reveal our relationship to anyone. Unless… you give me a status one day!”

“Sir, Elder Mr. Hamerton’s asking for you. He’s urged several times!”

“Mm, I know,” Zephyr replied nonchalantly.

“I’m leaving.”

Cordelia nodded. “Okay.”

He was disappointed. “You’re not sending me off?”

Cordelia chuckled with a hand over her mouth. She wore her shoes quickly and went downstairs with Zephyr.
