Cordelia stretched her shoulders and neck. Recently, Zuko had gained a lot of weight and turned into a little chubby ball. Plus, the little baby who had just learned to walk did not seem to like walking anymore and kept asking to be carried by his mother.

Every day, Cordelia carried Zuko, who felt as heavy as two bags of flour in her arms, so much so that she had muscle inflammation in her shoulders.

Zephyr quickly dragged her to sit comfortably on the couch and massaged her shoulders and neck.

Cordelia was not done with what she was saying, though, and continued with the previous topic. “Why don’t I dislike Alexander? Because he’s really nice.

“The others, like Nelly and Ava, approached you with ulterior motives, but Alexander’s sincere to you.” She looked up at him and smiled playfully. “Honey, your wife can always tell who’s sincere no matter how silly she is.”

“Oh?” Zephyr smiled and asked deliberately, “How can you tell?”

“Alexander’s sincere to you like how I am to you!” Cordelia blurted.

Zephyr’s heart jolted, and he looked at her tenderly, reaching out to stroke her face.

“Birds of a feather flock together,” Cordelia said softly. “It’s easy to sense your own kind with just one glance. So, how can those hypocrites like Nelly and Ava compare to Alexander?

“Besides, I’m not afraid of Alexander liking you.” She grinned proudly.

Zephyr was pleased. “Why?”

“Because you’ll always be by my side!” Cordelia turned around to go behind the couch and hugged his neck. “Because… my husband will never leave me in this life, the next life, and the life after the next!”

Zephyr felt extremely happy. Sweet delight erupted in him. He rubbed her cheek with his thumb and looked at her with deep affection.

The starlight shone through the window. The atmosphere was perfect.

However, Mr. Z Hamerton perfectly demonstrated what it meant to be carried away by one’s own happiness in the next second.

“Oh? Never leave you?” He was so happy that he did not know what he was saying. “Darling, you’re pretty confident! Hahaha…”

Cordelia’s smile froze instantly.
