She looked around and thought that Zephyr should almost be done changing, wondering how he was going to explain about the woman with him. It was at the same time she heard a shrill voice.

“Oh, Ms. Jenner, you’re here too?”

Cordelia looked up to see a woman dressed glamorously with intricate makeup and a pompous flair. It was the same person she met at her house the last time—the woman who “grew up together” with Zephyr.

Cordelia smiled and greeted politely, “Hi, Ms. Tanner.”

Nelly was rather surprised. “You know who I am?”

“I do.” Cordelia looked at her. “Zephyr’s mentioned you to me.”

Nelly was stunned. Her gaze was skeptical. “He… actually talked to you about me?”

Cordelia did not deny it.

It felt like a rock was lifted from her heart to Nelly. This meant that she had some significance to Zephyr. After all, no matter how reluctant he was about the marriage between the Hamertons and the Tanners, he could not fight back against the whole family.

Thinking of this, Nelly smirked triumphantly and crossed her arms.

“Since you know about my relationship with Zephyr, do you think it’s appropriate for you to be here today?”

Cordelia smiled without saying anything.

Nelly approached her. The girl’s calm grace made her anxious. The elegance that felt innate raised her doubts as well.

She was the heiress of the Tanners. How could she pale in presence compared to her!?
