The two of them stopped at the same time. They stared blankly at where the voice came from.

Cordelia stood aside and looked at them in shock, with her eyes widened.

Although Rowan was being held, he was obviously winning. There seemed to be something in his hand…

He instantly snapped back to his senses and hid the needle in his sleeve!

“Cordelia?” Zephyr was stunned. Subsequently, he showcased his acting skills by covering where his aorta was on his neck. He frowned and looked like he was in pain.

“What happened!?” Cordelia was shocked. She quickly went over to check on him.

“I’m hurting a little bit…” He looked at her. “And I’m dizzy.”

“Sir!?” Robert’s face turned pale. “Don’t scare me, sir. I was pulling you hard. Mr. Irwin didn’t touch you—”

“Ahem!” Zephyr coughed hard and glared fiercely at Robert.

Only then did the latter come to his senses and shut up immediately.

Fortunately, his cough masked what Robert said in the end.

Cordelia became nervous now. She looked left and right at his face and kept asking where he hurt himself. She would turn her head to look at Rowan every now and then.

Rage filled his eyes. He had lost the warmth he usually had.

“You b*stard!” Rowan was mad. “Are you putting up an act in front of Cordelia? Sure, act all you want!”

He took out the needle again and lifted it over his head. He pretended to poke him.

Cordelia saw it clearly now. She took a step forward to protect Zephyr behind her.

She stared at Rowan. Her face was serious, and her stance was powerful.

“Cordelia…”

“What are you doing, Mr. Irwin!?”

“Don’t believe him. He’s lying to you!”
