Zephyr’s heart thumped, and he quickly went after Zennie.
Cordelia dared not run too fast as she was pregnant, so she followed behind him by walking fast. He stopped in
front of the outpatient building, looking rather gloomy.
There was only one department, the psychology department.
There was a counseling room there. Important figures of Centrolis frequented this place to vent whatever they had.
Cordelia was worried and instantly thought Zennie might be there to talk to a psychologist, not for the college
entrance examination, but for the strange message from an anonymous number.
She had Seth guiding her for the examination. She was usually great at taking stress, and she had always aced in
school.
Therefore, that should not be it.
So… the message was the only reason!
Cordelia jolted and looked at Zephyr. They soon understood what they had in mind from each other’s eyes.
“Hubby!” Cordelia quickly pulled him. “Don’t go in now!”
He stopped.
That was right. He was too impulsive and had not thought it through.
If he rushed in and Zennie saw him, she would hide from him even more. She would not tell him the truth anymore.
She had gone to talk to Seth at his clinic the last time, but she did not look for him when she needed help now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtClearly, she was hiding something from him.
Cordelia’s voice was soft, but each word was unusually clear. “Zephyr, I’m sure this has something to do with Phil.
It’s better for the doer to undo what he has done. As soon as we find Phil, everything will be solved.”
He nodded.
However, it was really hard to look for Phil. There had been no news about him the past few months, and none of
his men could find anything about him.
The only clue was that he was good at disguising himself.
If he was walking on the street, it would be almost impossible to recognize him.
Cordelia sighed. “Please get Uncle Clark to care for her more. It’s lucky that Zennie walked out of her trauma the
last time. This time… we can’t let our effort go to waste.”

Fredric went to the bar that he usually frequented with Josiah.
It was afternoon, so the bar was empty. There was not even music.
Nevertheless, the professional bartender served him juice anyway.
“Why did you give me this?” Fredric frowned. “It smells like juice. Do you think I’m a kid?”
The bartender felt wronged. “Aren’t you a lawyer? Shouldn’t you always have a clear head and not drink anything
alcoholic…”
“I don’t have a case today!” Fredric was pissed.
It was the first time the bartenders saw the soft-spoken lawyer being mad. They left him alone.
What was wrong? Did he lose a case?
Fredric was even more irritated after they left. He had failed to chase after Neil’s car this morning. The car cost
over 1,000,000 dollars, while his car cost merely 150,000 dollars.
“Hey, why are you sitting here alone?” A clear voice suddenly came.
The smell of the woman’s perfume came before she arrived.
What came after was the deafening cheers everywhere she walked by.
The bar was small, but it was a glorious moment for Millie. Everyone was asking for her autograph and photos with
her. She could not feel her hand anymore.
“What, nobody’s serving you drinks?” Millie was flirty. She grabbed his tie as soon as she got close and giggled.
“You’re like a kid! Here, let me buy you drinks!”
Fredric was stunned.
She snapped her fingers, and the bartenders served high-end brandy and whiskey.
She poured two glasses and pushed one to Fredric in a natural manner.
“Cheers!”
He looked at her with slight shock. Would an artist lose her facade when she had reached the highest point of her
life? She was so easygoing!
He picked up the shot glass and took a sip.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMillie sat next to him. “Hey, don’t you have work today? You’re here so early in the day!”
“What about you?” Fredric looked at her. “Don’t you have work today?”
“The movie has finished shooting!”
“Oh…”
“Hey, handsome!” Millie paused. She could not help but gossip. “The competition between you and the best actor,
Neil, who got the girl?”
She touched the tender spot!
Millie saw through him. His troubled face charmed her even more.
She sighed and asked carefully, “Almighty lawyer, have you… given up on Ms. Lulham?”
He did not want to answer that question, so he kept drinking to ignore her.
“Hey, you’ve really given up!” She looked excited and almost jumped up. “Why don’t you try me?”
“What?” Fredric felt dizzy from this rose that fell from the sky.
“I said we should try being together!”
Millie inched closer, leaned on the table, and seductively bent her flexible body.
She was smiling and laughing in a flirty manner. Trinity finally dumped this nice fellow!
If that were the case, this would not be considered as stealing her best friend’s boyfriend, right?
Fredric stuttered, “M-Ms. Hill… Err… We should be cautious when it comes to this. We can’t be trying things so
easily.”
“I’m not an easygoing person!” Millie smiled brightly. She leaned on his shoulder, and even her voice was smiling as
she enunciated. “But I can be… wild!”
