Cordelia hung up right away, but Ava was relentless as she kept calling!
This was the first time Cordelia rolled her eyes at a phone. She took in a deep breath and slid the screen to answer.
Once the call connected, she heard a saccharine voice calling, “Cordelia…”
Cordelia felt goosebumps and focused herself to answer with a smile, “Oh, Ava, what is it?”
“Huh? Can’t I call you if there’s nothing?” Ava giggled. “I haven’t seen you these two days, I miss you! And my little
nephew! If you’re free, let’s eat together tomorrow?”
“Sorry, I’m not free.”
“Cordelia… you don’t want to eat with me?”
‘Yes, I do not want to!’ Cordelia screamed inwardly. Who the f*ck would want to eat with a b*tch who had eyes for
her husband? Could she even swallow anything!?

treats me like a friend since I got here. Of course I like spending time with you!”
Ava widened her eyes.
‘Wait, what? The fish took the bait already?
‘Hahaha, my effort to pander to her like a mistress graveling to the legitimate wife did not go in vain! Ew… no! A
mistress? Hah, when Zephyr takes my bait too, Cordelia will be the one groveling to me instead!’
“Ava, what’s the matter? Why are you so silent?”
“Oh, nothing!” Ava sobbed. “Cordelia, I… I’m just so touched that you trust me so much. I’m really—”
“Oh, we’re family. You sound distant saying this!” Cordelia chuckled. “I’ll need your help with the Bakers!”
“No worries!” Thrilled, Ava asked without much thought, “Cordelia, is Zephyr back from Feranche already? He’s not
home?”
Cordelia bit her lips, her knuckles holding the phone turning white.
“Oh, he’s home!”
“Oh…” Ava was a little disappointed.
“Why? Do you need him?” Cordelia basically gritted the words.
“Ah, nothing! Is he busy? He was always like that growing up, forgetting about everyone once he gets busy!
Cordelia, don’t blame him!”

“How could I?” Cordelia chuckled. “We were… quite busy just now.”
She emphasized the word “we”.
“You two?” Ava paused.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah, the two of us were busy… Heh, we’re free at home anyway, so we worked out a little!”
Cordelia’s voice was soft, and she made it ambiguous, so Ava’s thoughts went astray immediately.
“Worked out?” Ava’s tone was off. “Cordelia, y-you’re pregnant. How could you still work out?”
“Why not? It’s just that some positions are harder, so Zephyr helped me… Ah, I’ll stop here. I’m all sweaty right
now, and Zephyr’s asking me to take a bath. Talk soon, Ava!”
“Hey—”
Before Ava finished, Cordelia hung up. Ava brought up her arm and nearly smashed her phone on the floor.
What was she thinking? Working out while she was pregnant!? Was she still seducing men with a baby in her
womb!?
“Sl*t! She’s a sl*t!” Ava screamed with a pale face.
Hannah, who heard the shrieks, came over and was shocked upon seeing that her daughter was trembling. She
patted her head. “Ava, are you feeling sick?”
