It seemed that Helen was not a bad person. Even when she did not have a good life, she was willing to pass on the love.

Clark explained, “Mr. Zephyr, I’ve actually always asked people to keep an eye on my younger sister, afraid that she’d be making nonsense up around here and damaging the Hamertons’ reputation. That’s why I rushed over when I heard people say she was out to fortune tell again.

“I apologize on behalf of her, sir. Please be merciful and forgive her if she said something she shouldn’t have!”

Clark took a deep bow, making Cordelia feel awkward, and she quickly stopped him.

The old man was respected in the Hamertons and was Liam’s most trusted aide. Zephyr had always respected him like he was his family elder.

“Uncle Clark, nothing so serious.” Zephyr looked at him. “I’m not blaming Aunt Helen. What she said were all good things, and I like it.”

“Sir…” Clark was surprised.

If this had been before, Zephyr would have definitely chased her out and forbidden her from appearing around the hotel with a cold face. Now…

Clark smiled understandingly after his surprise and looked at Cordelia with a meaningful look.

Now that she was around him, his character softened up significantly.

Zephyr asked seriously, “Uncle Clark, given your status in the Hamertons, it isn’t difficult to arrange a job for Aunt Helen.”

“It’s not, but I can’t do that.” Clark smiled. “Your grandfather hates abuse of power, and I’m constantly around him. All the more I can’t let down his trust!”

“You can’t be partial around my grandpa, but you can be at my side.”

“What?”

Zephyr smiled. “Cordelia and I are staying outside, and I’ve been considering getting someone to take care of her. I won’t be assured if I get someone directly from the Hamertons.”

“Sir, you…”

“Let Aunt Helen come to Royal Manor,” said Zephyr. “She’ll be treated well.”

Zephyr was wearing it on his hand, so Cordelia was able to compare them straight away.

They were really identical. Even the design of the bell and weaving method was the same.

The couple exchanged a look and nodded in unison. Zephyr held Cordelia’s hand, and they swiftly left Royal Manor.
