“Just in case!”

Cordelia stroked her belly and smiled at him, gentle and determined.

“If we do have a child, we have to plan for them. But I want to buy this insurance for you…”

Her heart and eyes were filled with him as she held his hand.

“Honey… this is the first time I got pregnant. I’m honestly quite nervous. I went through a lot of information these two days, and I’m afraid if something happens like what the forums say—”

“Nonsense!” Zephyr glowered and glared at her sternly. “Stop imagining things. Nothing will happen to you!”

“Calm down!” Cordelia snuggled against him. “I’m just saying in case something happens. Remember to claim the insurance.”

“Nothing will happen! No in case!” Zephyr could not help growling. His dark glower scared even Cordelia.

She stared at him in a trance, her heart thumping.

Zephyr moved swiftly, tearing both insurance forms into shreds right away.

The world quieted down instantly as if they had gone into a vacuum.

The fierce sense of aggression coming from Zephyr caused Cordelia to step back involuntarily.

“Darling…”

Zephyr snapped back to reality at once. He had scared her. He pulled her right into his arms and said, “I’m not showing my temper at you. I just want you to know that accidents like this won’t happen.

“Even if something does happen…”

His eyes darkened as his voice turned hoarse. “I don’t want the child. I only want you!”

Cordelia felt her heart swell with warmth and a pinch on her nose. Her hand stroked the man’s broad back lightly.

“Silly man, what are you talking about?
