Zephyr’s expression changed. He said softly, “It’s all in the past… What else do criminals do when they’re together if not fight?”

“Did you hit him?”

“Hmm, you can say so.”

Cordelia nodded.

Everyone who was in prison before was abusive. It made sense that they were troubled mentally. Just like Nicholas, who always wanted to be on the top, would naturally be upset that Marcus hit him.

However, Zephyr was different. Apart from his serious face and the fact that he hardly talked, to her, there was nothing wrong with him.

Cordelia’s big, beautiful eyes were bright. She looked at her husband in silence. The more she looked, the more she thought she got herself a treasure.

Her tiny hand caressed his chiseled face. He did not have the time to shave, so his stubs made her itchy.

“Why are you staring at me?” Zephyr had an alluring voice as he patted her head.

“Nothing,” said Cordelia softly. “I just realized not only is my husband fair, but he’s forgiving too!

“Nicholas did that to you, yet you think he’s loyal. Not everyone is as generous as you!”

Zephyr’s eyes dimmed. “Am I really that good to you?”

“Of course!”

He hugged her, hoping that time would stop at that moment.

Cordelia thought it was unfair. “Hubby, although you think he’s loyal, he’s heartless to be doing this to Linda in my books! It’s sad that she likes him so much!”

“He’s quite helpless.” Zephyr played with her hair. “Perhaps he mercilessly distanced himself from her because he thought they were from different worlds since he was in prison before and now he’s in a gang.

“He’s keeping his distance to protect her.”

“Is that so?” Cordelia raised her eyebrows. “Do you men think loving in their own way is the right way to treat women?”
