Soon, Cordelia came back from buying the supplies and smiled when she saw Linda taking good care of Nicholas. She talked to the girl for a bit and left with Zephyr.

On the way home, she chit-chatted nonstop like a little pigeon, feeling a weight was lifted off her shoulders. Although Linda did not end up together with Seth as she had expected, she would support her as long as she made her choice!

Cordelia said with a sweet smile, “Darling, I think you and Nicholas will keep meeting in the future. You both should let bygones be bygones and try getting along!”

“Mm.” There were no bygones in truth.

Zephyr looked at her with a complicated gaze and suddenly stopped walking. She looked like she was in a great mood now, so she would most probably be able to accept it if he broke the news… Where should he start, though?

Zephyr took a deep breath and met Cordelia’s clear eyes.

“Darling, what’s wrong?”

Zephyr hesitated and slowly said, “I have something to tell you.”

Cordelia was beaming as she intertwined their fingers. “What a coincidence. Me too!”

“Hmm?” He looked at her. “What is it?”

“I did a check at Seth’s…”

Zephyr was startled. “What’s wrong? Where do you feel ill?”

Cordelia blushed and smiled, ducking her head. She told him very softly, “I… I haven’t gotten my period this month.”

Zephyr froze. He dared not believe his ears. His lips moved, but he could not make a sound.

“W-What did you say?” he asked shakily after a moment. “You mean… you’re pregnant!?”
