“Not really,” Cordelia replied awkwardly.
“Do you have a boyfriend already?”
Cordelia nodded.
“When are you breaking up?”
Cordelia was rendered speechless.
Janine went mute. ‘Goodness! Why did I blurt out what I was thinking!?’
“Ah, no, no!” She quickly chuckled and said apologetically, “Heh, I mean, you’re young and pretty. You have a lot of
choices. No need to be fixed on just one tree in the forest!”
Cordelia widened her eyes at her.
Why was she blurting out her honest thoughts again!? Janine bit her lips. She was acting too strange today. She

“Cordelia…” She explained weakly, “Actually, what I mean is…”
“It’s okay, I understand.” Cordelia smiled politely. “But I won’t break up with my boyfriend. I love him very much,
and he’s my husband to me. I’m going to spend the rest of my life with him!”
Janine paused and fell silent. She was quite disappointed. This was telling her that her son had no chance.
‘The rest of her life… This Cordelia is like her mother, a stubborn romantic!’
Although Janine disagreed with this vision of love, stubborn ones like them would devote themselves loyally once
they fell in love with someone. If a girl like this could love her son, he would be hitting the jackpot!
This was why she must never let this princess go!
It was just that their conversation had hit a dead end now. How was she supposed to resume it?
Janine gripped her coffee mug and drummed her fingers against it.
She had gone through the biggest negotiations and formidable rivals with a clear head and a sharp tongue, but she
was suddenly at a loss in front of this willful little princess.
“Thank you so much today, Aunt Janine.” Cordelia got up and bowed with a grateful smile. “But I have to go now. I
still have other interview tasks.”
“Wait!” Janine stopped her and grabbed her hand gently. “Cordelia, are you free this weekend?”
“I—”
“Didn’t you say that your interviewee just has to be someone from the finance industry? I know someone, and I can
introduce him to you this weekend. As such, you don’t have to scrap your interview outline.”
Cordelia was troubled. She had promised Zephyr to go to the Bayers’ this weekend and meet his mother. If she left
halfway through it, it might leave her future mother-in-law with a bad impression.
Despite that, the chance for an interview was rare. She would complete this month’s task in advance if she could

“Why?” Janine could see that she was hesitant. “Do you already have an appointment?”
Cordelia nodded honestly.
“Oh, that’s fine.” Janine smiled and wrote down an address on the girl’s book. “If you change your mind or your
appointment ends earlier, come to this place.”
The woman was sly like a fox. “Don’t worry. No matter how late you come, I’ll ensure your interview goes
smoothly!”
Internally, she was thinking, ‘Don’t worry. No matter how late you come, I’ll make sure I hold Zephyr back and
throw him to you!’
…
The Bayers’ residence was also built along the hill and was far across Hamerton Manor.
The place had a traditional design with four main buildings that formed a square. It had a sense of history with a
noble air. Meanwhile, the addition of high-tech facilities added a touch of modern charm.
