Zephyr and Cordelia came to the manor.
The place where Henry and Kate lived was called Gale Bay. It had the best view in the entire manor.
It was facing a river with mountains behind it. It was scenic. There was everything in the courtyard, just like what
nobles had in their mansions in ancient times.
Cordelia did not know where to look as she walked.
It seemed like Liam was biased toward his first son. Although he had nothing and was useless, he still got the best in
the entire family.
“Grandpa loves my dad.” Zephyr held her hand and said calmly. “That’s why my second uncle doesn’t like me.”
“Would people really have a bias against their own children?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCordelia was curious.
Zephyr’s father was a quiet, honest man. Even if Liam was biased, he should like Matthew, who was eloquent!
“Grandpa says my dad is his first child.” He chuckled. “Perhaps parents always love their firstborn more. Apart from
my second uncle, I have two aunts and another uncle. They are doing business overseas and are hardly home.”
“Theoretically, the elderly should like people like your second uncle more.” Cordelia blinked her big eyes. “It seems
your grandpa is still bright. He knows each child’s characteristics. He knows what’s right and wrong.”
“Of course!” Zephyr was proud of his own grandfather.
If Liam had been stupid, the Hamertons would not have achieved what they had today.
He would turn a blind eye sometimes just to balance out the advantages.
They arrived at Gale Bay as they chatted.
“The place you live is called Zen Residence, and the one your cousin lives in is Yale Residence,” Cordelia said softly.
“Then why does Zennie live here?”
“She’s a girl. She doesn’t need a place of her own.”
She pouted. “So patriarchal!”
“This isn’t patriarchal.” Zephyr smiled. “This is for the sake of girls to spend more time with their parents before
they get married. They won’t be home often after they get married.”
“Is this your grandpa’s idea as well? He sure is thorough!”
Zephyr grabbed her shoulders and walked in.
They heard a bright peal of laughter before they entered the living room.
Cordelia looked around. Apart from Kate, nobody could laugh at such a decibel.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, it was lively today. She seemed to be hosting VIPs…
“Zen, Cordelia. You’re here!”
Kate ran out to welcome them and grabbed Cordelia’s hand.
Her style was a lot today. She had curly hair with heavy make-up and wore branded stuff all over.
Her signature red lips showed the most passionate smile.
Cordelia could not help but laugh. She had just seen that the person Kate was entertaining was Seth.
“You guys know each other, so I won’t be doing the introduction! We’re all family, hahaha…”
Seth stood up and nodded to show his respect.
He was still polite with his golden-frame glasses. There was always a gentle smile on his face.
Zennie ran out with fruits in her hands. Her cheeks flushed, and there was light in her eyes. She was the talkative
little princess again. Her smile contained everything good in the world.
“Brother, sister!” Zennie handed a cookie to Cordelia. “Try this. I baked it myself!”
Cordelia took a bite. It was buttery and delicious!
