Chapter 150


    Zephyr looked at her quietly.


    Cordelia suddenly saw aplicated expression in his deep eyes. Her heart was pounding, and


    her palms were sweating. She pursed her lips.


    She only heard her husband speak with a deep voice a long timeter.


    “I looked for this ce for a long time and negotiated with thendlord a few times before renting


    and renovating it.”


    Cordelia was stunned.


    “You said you wanted a cafe.” His face softened as his rough fingers caressed her face. “I kept that


    in mind.


    “So Ipared a few shops when I had the time, and eventually decided on this one because I


    think this matches your requirement.


    His voice was deep, with a pampering hint hiding within. “Wifey, your husband can’t do anything, but


    I’ll do my best and pay any price to get whatever you want.”


    What he said sent a jolt to her heart. She held his hand tightly.


    “You must’ve spent a lot of money, right?”


    “Hmm, quite a lot.” She would not believe it if he said he did not, so he thought he would be serious


    about it. “It’s enough adding up the money I won from thepetitions, the sries, and the


    commissions I gottely.”


    To be honest, Cordelia felt pain.


    She knew that he must have made quite a lot from thepetitions, but he exchanged that with


    sweat and blood. She refused his sry when he offered because she did not want to splurge on


    his hard-earned money.


    She wanted him to treat himself better, to be able to spend on whatever he wanted.


    She did not want him to keep making money.


    Never had she thought to spend his money, yet he spent it on her.


    “Didn’t I ask you to keep the money!?” She looked at him in a ming manner.


    “I kept it for you.” He smiled. “It’s worth it to spend to fulfill your dream.”


    “I have many dreams!” She pouted. “Can you fulfill all of them for me?”


    “I certainly can.”


    He held her tight, burying her tiny head in his chest.


    Cordelia’s smile was bright like the sun. She could hear his strong heartbeat but not the fear hiding


    within.


    She did not know that he just wanted to improve now. If that were the case, perhaps when his


    identity came to light one day, she would not leave him.


    Zephyr led her behind the counter. He picked light roast coffee beans from Emepa and put them


    into the coffee machine.


    “Let me be your first customer today,” he said with a smile, raising his eyebrows. “One ck coffee,


    please.”


    Cordelia agreed while smiling. She made coffee professionally.


    The sky was turning dark, and the lights were lit outside. The sycamore trees were swaying in the


    breeze. The shop was filled with coffee fragrances. Cordelia leaned on Zephyr, watching the sky


    afar. A smile appeared at the corner of her lips.


    Slowly but surely, she seemed to be walking into her colorful dream.


    …


    A smallunch party was held at the cafe on the weekend.


    They struggled toe up with a name for the cafe for many days and decided to use what they


    had in the end.


    It was called Iris.


    There were irises everywhere in the courtyard, while thenguage of the flower meant happiness


    and love.


    It was a sunny day. The clouds floated in the blue sky like clumps of cotton candies, and the


    summer vibe filled the ce.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Zennie was the first who came with a gift. She kept asking for tea and desserts before she went in.


    She even asked to take them away for her night snack.


    However, seeing Zephyr’s serious face, she stood frozen at the door like a mouse meeting a cat.


    “What’s wrong?” Cordelia shook him and said with a smile, “Oh, yes, you haven’t met Ms.


    Hamerton, right? Let me introduce you guys!”


    She pulled him to Zennie.


    They locked eyes, and Zennie put in a great effort to suppress the smile that wasing.
