As Zephyr left the hospital ward, he felt like a rock was weighing his heart down. Although Rania’s death was
unrelated to him, he still felt a sense of guilt, like he was an indirect cause.
He stood at the hospital door for a long time, smoking somewhere spacious, and saw a few police officers rushing
into the building. With the number of drugs Phil was dealing with, a death sentence was a treat.
After a stick of cigarette, Zephyr looked up at the nightfall. It was time to leave this mess and go home to keep his
wife company.
“Sir.” Robert came from afar and looked hesitant to speak.
Zephyr chuckled after a glance at him. “You went to check Marco’s case?”
Robert smiled and nodded. As an excellent follower of Zephyr, of course, he had to do things in advance.
The moment he heard Marco’s name outside the ward, he started the investigation.
“Not bad.” Zephyr patted his shoulder. “Finally did something sensible.”
Robert was rendered speechless. How was he insensible aside from always interrupting Zephyr and Cordelia?
“Go on, what did you get?”
“I asked Uncle Clark. He knew a little about it.” Robert cleared his throat. “Uncle Clark said that Mr. Marco didn’t do
anything to the girl… The death at the bar that night was an accident, but the families in school that had grudges
with the Hamertons back then began to create rumors and speculations. Mr. Marco’s a timid one, so he ran back on
his own.”

Marco should be damned. By being so gentlemanly to all the girls all the time, it was his luck to have provoked a
crazy one like Phil. And his nickname too… Mark? Was it so hard to just tell people that he was Marco Hamerton?
Zephyr scowled.
“Find out where Rania Kerk is buried and leave some flowers for her.”
“Got it.”
“Mm.” Zephyr turned away but stopped after a few steps, taking a few hard sniffs on himself.
There seemed to be some cigarette scent on his jacket… He turned back to Robert. “Get the car.”
“Huh?” Robert was taken aback.
“Ask Splendor Dynasty to leave me a room. I’m going to take a shower.”
“Sir…” Robert winced. “Uh, Splendor Dynasty’s under Mrs. Hamerton now. Once you step inside the hotel, the
receptionist will let her know that you’re getting a room right away…”
“What nonsense are you on!?” Zephyr glared at him. “Who did you say is getting a room!?”
“No, no, sir. I’m just… It’s just a reminder.”
Zephyr felt like his head was exploding.
Robert was right, though. It was inappropriate for him to take a shower in the hotel. Cordelia was pregnant, and it
was said that pregnant women were highly sensitive. The fact that he went to the hotel would usually be fine, but at
this time, when his wife was pregnant… it was hard to tell how it would end.
He thought that he should save themselves from the headache and not go to the hotel. It was just that he had to
wash off the cigarette smell!
Zephyr looked at Robert and suddenly wore a strange smirk.
Robert was hit with a sense of premonition. “Sir, you’re not thinking to…”
“We’ll go to your place!” It was loud and assertive.
Robert’s legs nearly gave out upon hearing that.
“I can’t?” Zephyr raised his brows.
“You can… Surely, you can.” Robert chuckled. “It’s just that my place’s a little messy. And there are those cuties…”
Ever since Robert spent some time with Ginger, he became incredibly interested in cats and took the 20 stray cats
around his residential area home. He took care of them very well and got someone to tend to their needs usually.
Hence, Zephyr was baffled once he stepped into Robert’s place.
How were these cuties? They were glaring tabby cats!

He just wanted to come to take a shower…
“Robert, you…” Zephyr looked at the man in disbelief before he yelled, “Are you planning to put these creatures
into Royal Manor one by one!?”
Robert shuddered. What else could he do if not look back at Zephyr with a smile?

Zephyr took a quick shower and sped back to Royal Manor.
Cordelia had not slept yet and was tossing and turning in the bed.
Once Zephyr entered the bedroom and saw the small lump under the blanket, his heart felt full, and he got in to
hug Cordelia from the back.
“Don’t move. Let me hug you for a bit.” His hands were around her waist, and he felt her lower abdomen. Their
baby was in there.
Zephyr smiled and pressed his chest against her back, burying his face into her hair. Only the familiar sweet
fragrance she had could drive away the bad mood this mess brought him.
Cordelia felt cold before Zephyr came back. Now that he was back and was clinging to her, the temperature rose,
and she felt much warmer.
“Mm…” She smiled and turned around to face him, snuggling him like a kitten.
Zephyr pulled his shirt up to let Cordelia warm her feet up on his stomach.
He frowned. “Darling, why are you always so cold?”
“I think all pregnant women are like that?” Cordelia answered lazily, “I keep feeling cold after getting pregnant but
come to think of it, it makes sense. The baby’s sharing my heat, so I don’t have enough.”
“Oh, so it’s this little one who’s at fault!” Zephyr glared. “Never mind, honey, I’ll help you beat it up!”
