Cordelia nodded.
There were many factions in the Southeast Aciatic royal family that were complicated and intertwined. The degree
of collusions and intrigues was no lesser than the four major families of Centrolis—might even be worse.
After all, they were not just fighting for wealth and assets. The throne was even more crucial. Whoever had military
rights would have higher chances of winning.
This was why the Harrises turned out to be the hotcake.
Noah was not in any urgency to decide on Neil’s marriage. He might also be waiting and considering which faction
had the potential.
“Victoria and Alexander are the most hopeful,” Rowan told them. “You can’t avoid interacting with the royals.

“Mm, don’t worry!”
Rowan held their hands. “Cordelia, Zephyr, Irwin Pharmaceuticals will need you in the future…”
“What?” Cordelia was alarmed.
Zephyr also found it unbelievable. He furrowed his brow, and a glint flashed in his eyes. He then asked after some
time, “Dad, there’s still Carter, and you’ve decided just like this?”
“Dream on.” Rowan shot him a dirty look, cold on the outside as usual.
Zephyr was rendered speechless.
“I didn’t say I’m handing over the whole company to you!”
Zephyr pursed his lips speechlessly.
Rowan looked at his daughter. “Cordelia, Carter is growing into his expertise but is young and lacks experience.
There’s always an academic air on him. I’m not as assured of leaving the company to him.
“So, I’ll segregate a part of it to leave it under you and Zephyr’s name. I hope that Zephyr… can give Carter a hand
to help him take on his responsibilities alone as soon as possible.”
Zephyr smirked. The old geezer needed him now, huh?
Rowan looked at him. If it were not for his daughter and grandson, he would not even be bothered with this brat!
Cordelia smiled. “Dad, I know that you want to keep mom company the best you can. Don’t worry. We’ll help Carter
and run Irwin Pharmaceuticals well.”
Rowan was comforted and looked at Zephyr. He kept his smile and put on the authority of a father-in-law. “What
about you? What do you say?”

Zephyr chuckled and hugged Cordelia. “Don’t worry, dear father-in-law. I listen to my wife!”
Rowan blinked, eyes a little wet, and he quickly turned away.

Upon Aurelia’s arrival in Southeast Aciatic, she found a place to stay easily due to her temporary residence permit.
Her apartment was in the city center. It was small and old, with a market next street. There were people every day,
and it was noisy.
Despite that, Aurelia liked it a lot. Her home was not huge, but this was her actual first home. It was so much better
than the dark basement in Melorian.
Cordelia had paid the rent for her. Aurelia promised her that she would return the money once she made some.
“There’s no rush,” Cordelia had told her softly. “Your main concern right now isn’t to make money but to study well.
You already have a temporary residence permit. Even if you can’t sit for a university entrance exam right away, it’d
be good to sit in the classes first.”
Aurelia shook her head with a smile. Of course, she would go to school, but survival was her current priority.
She had already found a job—just on the street next to the market. It was a tailor shop.
