Cordelia looked up and met Zephyr’s gentle and indifferent eyes. The man grew up being pushed and motivated.
He would certainly not want his son to go through what he had been through.
“I think as long as Zuko grows up healthy and happy,” she said softly. “I’m not an ambitious person to start with, so I
naturally wouldn’t ask too much from our son!
“Honey, you… probably think the same, right?”
Zephyr arched his brow.
The same? Heh, how was that possible!?
Once Zephyr thought that the boy was occupying Cordelia since his birth and would occupy her for even longer
after this, he felt…
Zephyr smirked. “Darling, you’re wrong!”
“Huh?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I think exactly the opposite of you. I think the study plan’s great! He is a boy and should go through more
grinding!”
Cordelia widened her eyes speechlessly.
“If Zuko can’t take the hardships of studying, he’ll have to take the hardships life throws at him later!” Zephyr said
confidently, “Darling, you wouldn’t want him to become a prodigal heir, right?”
Cordelia frowned. “That’s true…”
“So Zuko’s classes have to be packed!”
Once the boy’s schedule was packed, he would not be bothering his wife!
Zephyr said seriously, “Darling, early childhood education has to be timely! I think we should get him the best early
childhood teacher to start teaching him at home next month!”
Baby Zuko blinked his big, bright eyes as he stared at his own father, wondering whether he had come to the
correct family and whether this man was really his father.
After Aurelia arrived in Centrolis, she stayed with Cordelia in Royal Manor.
Helen liked the beautiful and hardworking girl. Both of them did household chores together and helped babysit Zuko
for Cordelia. Their teamwork was impeccable.
Zuko also seemed to like Aurelia a lot. Sometimes, when she played with him by the cradle, he waved his plump
little arms and whined.
The baby clothes Aurelia made were soft and thin, with threads carefully hidden inside. The seams were well taken
care of.
Cordelia sometimes sighed. “You’re so skilled. You really should use it somewhere it’s needed!”
Aurelia chuckled embarrassedly and tinkered with the spinning bells on the bed. Baby Zuko was happily playing with
them, flailing his arms and legs excitedly.
Cordelia told her softly, “Aurelia, when Neil’s done with work here, he’ll take you to Southeast Aciatic. He’s rather
influential there, and the royals will grant you an immigration status as a favor to him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAurelia’s smile froze as she looked back quietly. “Cordelia, am I troubling him?”
“Not exactly. It’s an easy job for him to help you.”
Aurelia lowered her head. As someone without a registered identity, she knew well how difficult it was to get a
status—no matter which country it was.
If Neil were to beg someone or get caught in a plight because of her, she would rather be an illegal immigrant for
life than for him to lower himself inferiorly to others.
The doorbell rang. The butlers from the Hamertons were here with the accounts to be checked by Cordelia.
Since Zephyr and Cordelia returned to Centrolis, they took on the roles of the man being the breadwinner and the
woman being the homemaker. Zephyr ran the company while Cordelia decided every household affair.
Clark came to Cordelia every day with a few other veteran butlers.
Cordelia led them to wait in the study room and went to change, asking Helen to prepare snacks and tea.
Aurelia saw that Cordelia was going to be busy and that Zuko was getting sleepy, so she took the baby back to his
room to tuck him in.
When Zuko was asleep, she went on her phone out of boredom and saw the entertainment news that popped on
her screen. The person who had been trending these days caught her aback.
