Cordelia nodded. There must be a hidden agenda, and Uncle Noah might not even know about it!
“It’s really unusual that they’ve suddenly set up a management company and could produce $15,000,000 right
away.” Cordelia bit her lips and said in a low voice, “I’ll have to let Trinity know not to shoot the film first. This has to
be postponed. And you’ve got to look into Prestige, honey!”
Zephyr smiled and tapped twice on his laptop, immediately showing the detailed investigation result on Prestige
Agency.
Cordelia paused.
“Darling, do you have to say? I’ve got it done already!”
Cordelia read that the capital Prestige Agency registered with was not much, and it only signed a handful of artists.
The whole company only had a legal person, a manager, and a finance person.

one who will be held accountable legally!”
“Mm.”
Cordelia said, “And it doesn’t look like a regular company to me. More like a shell company!”
Zephyr closed the laptop with a chortle.
“Alright, stop thinking so much. I’ll go to bed with you.”
“Darling…” Cordelia hugged him on the neck. “The baby’s been so active recently that my back is so sore.”
Zephyr carried her back to their bedroom and placed her on the bed to massage her back gently.
Cordelia then fussed that it was warm and wanted to have ice cream.
Zephyr paused and shook his head hesitantly.
Cordelia was disappointed. Since she got pregnant, her mother and mother-in-law kept a close eye on her,
prohibiting her from having this and that. Ice cream was one of the blacklisted foods.
Janine followed the list strictly once Cordelia was in Chaiseland and repeatedly warned Zephyr to pay attention to
her meals.
Cordelia missed all the junk food she used to have—instant ramen, frozen pizzas, hot chips… It had been months
since she had these.
She pouted and turned away gloomily to sleep.
Zephyr coaxed her for some time, but she was still reluctant to turn over. He got up and mentioned having to do
some work.
Cordelia nodded and closed her eyes to let him go, but not too long later, she vaguely heard noises outside the
bedroom door and seemed to smell something sweet.
“Ah!” She opened her eyes in thrill. “Ice cream?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe perked up immediately. The chocolate sundae with a strawberry top was served in an exquisite porcelain cup
that simply made it look appetizing.
Zephyr’s gaze was indulging as he smiled and passed her the spoon.
“Thank you, darling!” Cordelia dug a spoonful and was instantly gratified. It felt like she was hit with a shot of
dopamine!
“Darling…” She looked at Zephyr. “Why did you change your mind suddenly?”
“What’s there you can’t have?” Zephyr chuckled and rubbed her hair. “My wife already has a hard time being
pregnant. What about having some ice cream?”
“Darling…”
“We’ll have whatever you want,” Zephyr said softly. “But you can’t have too much. Just a bit to satisfy the craving!”
Cordelia ate the ice cream and nodded fervently.
“My son isn’t that fragile!” Zephyr said with a chortle. “He can take anything cold, hot, sour, or spicy! Right, son?”
“You didn’t want me to have it just now. Why change your mind so suddenly?”
“Because…”
Zephyr said in a deep tone and put a hand on the back of her head to push their foreheads together.
