Zephyr was gentle as he whispered into Cordelia’s ear. “Didn’t we make our promise on this? No matter which life,
we’ll be together. We’ll never be apart.”
At that moment, Zuko, who was in the cradle, opened his eyes and stared at them.
His face was blank. He did not know that his parents were showing off their affection in front of him.
He started crying to get attention.
Zephyr quickly got up to comfort him. He was an experienced father now. Knowing that he had just been fed, Zuko
should not be crying because of hunger. Thus, Zephyr checked his diaper.
As expected, he felt something warm in there…
He laughed. “It’s a gift from our son. It’s huge!”
Cordelia chuckled and searched through her bag. She found some handmade clothes to get him to change Zuko.

Almost everyone had come for Cordelia’s childbirth—Neil was the only one missing.
“It’s the fifth day today,” Zephyr said in a deep voice. “I heard from Will that she has gone through all of the
procedures. She’ll be taken to the border tomorrow.”
“What about Neil?”
Zephyr shook his head.
“If he’s willing to bring Aurelia to Southeast Aciatic, with his relationship with the royalty, it’ll be a piece of cake for
her to earn her identity.
“But that’s under the premise that Neil is willing to do that.” Zephyr looked at her. “Wifey, stop worrying about
them. Sometimes, it’s all about fate.”
…
Aurelia had finally left her cell.
Apart from being questioned, she had been asked to sign her name on all sorts of documents these days.
At that moment, six armed police officers stood before her, looking at her expressionlessly.
This scene had often appeared in her dreams, and she would be woken up each time from the shock.
However, she was extraordinarily calm this time.
Will walked over slowly and nodded at her.
She revealed a smile of gratitude.
Because of this kind sergeant, those officers had not given her a hard time.
He got the officers to leave so that he could speak to her alone.
They stood across from each other and fell into silence for a long time. The first thing he said was something
apologetic. “Sorry.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAurelia was stunned before quickly saying. “Don’t say that. I should thank you!”
“I’m really helpless with your identity. We can only chase you out.”
She forced a smile. “You’ve done plenty for me…”
“Oh yeah.” Will chuckled. “Mrs. Hamerton has given birth. It’s a boy, and the mother and child are doing great.
He showed her pictures on his phone.
Aurelia was happy. It was her happiest since she was captured.
“C-Can I see them one more time? I’m not trying to play anything. I just want to thank them. I’m leaving Chaiseland
and don’t know where I’ll be. I’m afraid I won’t see them ever again…”
The smile on Will’s face froze. He slowly said a moment later, “No.”
Aurelia expected that answer, so she forced a smile.
She could not see Cordelia or Neil.
They were from two different worlds.
No matter where she would be in the future, she would pray for them.
An officer out there knocked. “Sergeant Orwell, it’s time.”
Aurelia bowed at him again and walked to the door with determination.
