Robert could not help laughing as he thought about it, and his foot stomped on the brake, causing the car to jolt.

“Sorry! I’m sorry!” He was horrified. “Are you all okay?”

Janine looked at him, befuddled. “No, but I remember you used to drive well, didn’t you? What’s gotten into you now?”

Robert chuckled awkwardly.

As the car door opened and they got out, Cordelia realized they stood before a lofty well-designed mansion. It was in an excellent spot of quietness despite the bustling city center.

Janine and Xyla looked at them with a beam.

Josiah then came out of the mansion area and nearly gave Zephyr a bear hug when he saw him.

“Z! A grand welcome to you and sis-in-law for choosing Royal Manor!” Josiah was rarely this serious with a suit and tie. “This will be your home from now on!”

Cordelia was stunned and looked at Xyla. “Mom, this is—”

“Cordelia, this is a gift from both your mothers to you!” Josiah said with a grin.

“Yea, Cordelia.” Xyla held Cordelia’s hand and looked at her lovingly. “I’ve discussed it with Janine and think that you both should have your own space.”

“It’s not too nice to stay in Zen Residence,” said Janine. “After all, you haven’t officially married into the Hamertons. And the place is full of rules. It’s torture. I’m worried that you won’t adapt to it so soon.

“So we chose here! This place is an exclusive mansion residential area that the Bayers developed. The facilities are absolutely marvelous!”

“The service is great too!” Josiah stood between them. “I’m your exclusive butler from now on. Just come to me if you need anything!”

Cordelia giggled while Zephyr wrapped an arm around her and gave Josiah a dirty look.

“Z! Don’t look down on me! I’m in serious work mode now!”

Zephyr smiled and looked at his mother in approval.

She had come back to Centrolis for so long and was arguing with him all the time. This was the only thing that sat easily with him. He just did not know if Cordelia was happy with this.

He was a little worried and looked at her. Cordelia was blushing a little as she looked down and fidgeted with the hem of her clothes.

He knew that she was nervous. She had a traditional mind and might not accept this, but she had long been his!

Zephyr looked at her, feeling a little emotional. “Cordelia, will you start a new life with me?”

Matthew’s eyes widened in disbelief.
