Chapter 210


    This meant that there would be one more person in the bedroom.


    Zephyr walked over quietly and opened the bedroom door. As expected, Linda and Cordelia were


    sleeping inside.


    He chuckled soundlessly. It seemed that his little girl was afraid to be alone and asked her best


    friend to keep herpany, while Nichs followed shamelessly since he was worried about Linda.


    Zephyr put down his luggage softly and carefully padded to Cordelia.


    Their bed was spacious. Cordelia slept with her back against Linda, and there was still some space


    between them.


    Cordelia hugged a pillow—the one that Zephyr usually used.


    Zephyr raised his brows and tucked the girl in gently with a smile.


    It was then Linda turned around and rubbed her eyes, astonished to see someone standing beside


    Cordelia through the dim lighting.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    “Ah!” Linda screamed with her hair standing on end.


    She patted Cordelia awake quickly before she darted toward Zephyr.


    “Thief! Robber!


    “Nichs! Come in!”


    Before Zephyr could react, Linda threw a pillow at him and kept Cordelia behind her.


    Nichs, who barged in upon hearing her cry kicked the silhouette by the bed without any


    hesitation.


    Zephyr gasped. Nichs’ kicknded right on his hips…


    “Nichs Thompson, you f*cker!”


    “Eh?”


    Nichs was going to kick him a second time, but his leg froze midair like the pause button had


    been pressed.


    Both women widened their eyes as they watched in shock.


    It was Cordelia who reacted first. “Darling? It’s you!”


    She bounced off the bed and threw herself into his arms when she turned the lights on and got a


    proper look.


    Zephyr’s hips hurt, causing him to re at Nichs.


    “Kicked my hips, huh?” Zephyr gnashed his teeth. “What if you wrecked it?!”


    Nichs guffawed.


    “Ah, it’s Marcus!”


    It was only then Linda rxed. “Gosh, you can’t me Nichs. It’s so dark, and you stood there


    like a ghost. You were asking for it!”


    Nichs went over and held Linda’s hand.


    “Mm, my Linda knows me!”


    “It’s because my Nichs did the right thing!”


    “My Linda’s the best!”


    “My Nichs is even better!”


    Zephyr was rendered speechless. ‘Someone get these two out of here!’


    Cordelia was delightfully surprised, her eyes turning into crescents.


    “Darling, why are you back at this time? Didn’t you say you’d be here the day after tomorrow?”


    Zephyr rubbed her hair and chuckled. “I couldn’t wait anymore, so I came back earlier.”


    “Yourpetition ended?”


    “Mm, all done.”


    “Did you get hurt?”


    Nichs clicked his tongue. “Cordelia, you’re not asking if he won or lost?”


    “I don’t care about that.” Cordelia chortled. “As long as he’s not hurt!”


    Zephyr’s expression changed immediately. He hung his head, and his voice went lower. “Honey, I’m


    hurt…”


    “What?”


    “Just now.” Zephyr pointed at Nichs. “He kicked me, and it still hurts!”


    Nichs was rendered speechless. ‘Mr. Z is so good at acting now! Can they stop please?’
