“Ah!” the person cried out of surprise.

Cordelia ran to the cradle and protected her son with herself while she fought the person with her life. She hit him with her eyes closed, and the man retreated.

Little Zuko, who was in the cradle, was startled awake and wailed.

“Stop hitting me! Stop hitting!

“Your son’s crying, and you’re still hitting me!

“Cordelia, it’s me!”

“Who!?” Cordelia froze abruptly. Her hands clutching her purse hovered in the air.

The man, who was one head taller than her, curled up with his hands shielding his head, looking pitiful from being beaten up.

The air went silent suddenly…

From the gap between his two arms, the man revealed his face to look at her in terror.

“You… Neil?” Cordelia was shocked.

Neil wore a bitter expression as he pulled a long face.

Cordelia snapped out of the surprise and could care less about him as she twirled around to carry her son and coax him.

A few security guards arrived with electrical batons in their hands, only for Cordelia to explain softly that it was a misunderstanding and dismiss them.

“You’ve gone over the line…” Neil went to check himself in the bathroom mirror. He had fortunately defended himself, and his face was not hit. Had his face been damaged, how was he supposed to make a living in the entertainment world?

“I didn’t know it was you!” Cordelia chuckled apologetically behind him, carrying her son.
