Janine knocked on the door directly. “Zephyr, stop stalling! Come out and meet someone with me!”

Zephyr felt a headache upon seeing his mother when he opened the door.

“Mom, can you just give up? How many times do you want me to tell you? I’m not interested in the person you mentioned!”

“Interest can be developed!” retorted Janine. “What were you interested in other than eating when you were younger? It’s all my teachings and training that others have the illusion you’re gifted…”

“Mom, you—”

“Hurry up, come with me!”

Zephyr scowled. “I need to use the washroom!”

“Hold it in!” growled Janine.

Robert could not hold back and let a chuckle escape, but he quickly clamped his mouth shut.

“Zephyr Hamerton, if you must go to the washroom, I’ll take the girl and look for you there! Make up your mind!”

Janine left after she spoke.

Zephyr glared at her back, his face turning purple from holding back his rage.

“Mr. Zephyr, it’s actually fine to have a quick meeting,” Robert reminded him softly, “Don’t forget that Ms. Jenner’s going to meet Madam Baker tonight. It’s best that you don’t get into a conflict with the queen now. Think of it as doing this for Ms. Jenner. Hurry!”

Zephyr actually shared the same thought. He would meet the girl and make it clear—it was better than dragging it on like this.
