He looked at Robert, who was anxiously flailing at him to gesture that he had a negotiation, a meeting, a visitor, and a few stacks of documents waiting for him in the afternoon.

Despite that, Zephyr asked on the phone, “Where are you now?”

“The grocery store near my house.” Cordelia chortled.

“Wait for me. I’ll be there soon.”

When he hung up, Robert’s eyes almost fell off from how much they were bulging. “Sir, you…”

“What?” Zephyr gave him an icy look. “Do I not have the right to eat lunch now?”

“No…” Robert winced. “Actually, the meal is ready for you at Splendor Dynasty. You can have a break after lunch…

“Hey, Mr. Zephyr!”

Before Robert finished, Zephyr was long gone. Nothing was more important than Cordelia missing him.

Zephyr soon arrived at the grocery store. He went up and hugged Cordelia tightly as soon as he saw her. He could forget about eating, but he could not not see her. The faint fragrance on her was the best medicine that could cure all his woes.

“What’s gotten into you?” Cordelia giggled, patting his back. “You’re still so strong even when you’re hungry!”

“I’m always stronger when I’m ‘hungry’.” The man’s voice was smiling as he spoke next to her ear. “When weren’t I in the past?”

Cordelia was suddenly struck by realization regarding what he was saying and blushed, raising her fist to punch him.

Zephyr grinned as he allowed her to do that. He even tugged her hand toward his chest. “Here, punch here, harder!”
