Cordelia stayed quiet.
Her mother’s shoulders were frail, but she was immensely assured as she rested on them. Her mother’s fragrant
scent had also soothed her tense nerves and gradually calmed her down.
Xyla said softly, “Cordelia, both of us are actually very lucky. I met your father and you met Zephyr.”
Cordelia smiled.
Yeah, they were both men who were sincerely good to them.
“So, what inferiority do you have before him?” Xyla looked into her eyes. “Someone who truly loves you won’t
despise you over a tiny flaw. Their heart will ache for you instead.”
“But…” Cordelia pressed her lips together. “I came across many posts that said that their husbands were cold to
them and wouldn’t even look at them, some not returning home for the night, ever since they had babies and
stretch marks.
“Mom, maybe these small and petty details in life will really grind away the love.”
Xyla was amused and huffy as she poked Cordelia’s head.

of them!
“Cordelia, love won’t ever fade. It’ll only become stronger with time. Just like your diamond ring, it’s the toughest
thing in the world, and it shines and sparkles forever.”
“Mom…”
“There’s no need to hide before the one you love.” Xyla patted her head. “Be yourself and welcome the new life
that belongs to the both of you. This is more important than everything else!”
…
Xyla had just spent two days in Melorian, yet Rowan kept calling nonstop. Cordelia was exasperated because of him.
“Dad, mom’s here to keep me company. Are you scared that she’ll be abducted?”
“Good girl, your mom wouldn’t be taken away so easily!” Rowan coughed and lowered his voice. “Unless that Witch
Janine is instigating again—”
Before he could finish, a sonorous voice echoed. “Rowan Irwin, what did you say!?”
Rowan nearly dropped his phone.
“Cordelia, what’s going on? Y-You have me on speaker?”
Cordelia giggled. She had one arm holding her mother and the other holding her mother-in-law as they shopped at
a luxury boutique. For convenience’s sake, she had placed her phone on the counter and put the call on speaker,
not expecting Rowan to lack a filter.
“Nice one, Rowan!” Janine was not going down without a fight. “I’m kind enough to take your wife out shopping, and
you say I’m instigating? You’re just like when you were younger—despicable!”
“Are you done, Janine? I’m despicable? So, you’re noble?”
“Much more than you! How dare you call me a witch? You pufferfish!”
“You…”
“Hamster! Hamster with only three teeth!”
Cordelia hung up quickly.

She heard that Irwin Pharmaceuticals had been producing a new medicine recently and Rowan was cooped up in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe lab all day with Carter. That was why he did not come to Chaiseland.
Cordelia stuck out her tongue. It was fortunate that he did not come, or it would be another world war.
“Oh, Cordelia!” Janine pulled her hand. “Zephyr will pick you up after lunch.”
“Where to?”
“I think… he’s taking you to some match?” Janine said with a smile, “Have fun! Leave your mom with me. I’ll take
her to shop in the south later!”
“Mm, thanks, mom!”
“There are lots of bars in the south, plenty of handsome men too!” Janine cackled. “I have to widen your mom’s
horizons and let that Southeast Aciatic pufferfish die of anger! Hahaha…”
Cordelia widened her eyes in slight helplessness.
In the afternoon, Zephyr took her to Old Clifford.
The place was brimmed with people with barely an empty seat. It was all red, and the cheers were deafening.
Zephyr kept Cordelia protected as he led her to the VIP seats.
This was Cordelia’s first time watching a soccer match live. As one basked in the mood, it felt overwhelming.
The VIP seats had a good view and were relatively quiet. She looked around, and the people next to her smiled
back politely, greeting her by removing their hats.
