Chapter 312
Janine was d to be of service. “Sure! What is it?”
Cordelia nced at Zephyr and giggled. “Can you get my sry card back for me?”
“What?”
“I haven’t even gotten to hold my sry card ever since I started working in the news agency!”
Janine frowned. “Which news agency is it? That’s too much! How dare they dy payment?”
“The agency didn’t dy my payment.” Cordelia met Zephyr’s widened eyes and pointed at him
with a chuckle, “He took it!”
Janine was surprised.
Although she had opinions about Zephyr recently, she still thought her son was a responsible man.
‘W-When did he develop the awful habit of snatching a woman’s sry card!?’
“Zephyr Hamerton!” she roared.
A lot of people attending the event turned.
Zephyr could not afford to embarrass himself like this and quickly eyed his mother to lower her
volume.
Janine did not care. She pped him again.
“You brat! How dare you snatch Cordelia’s sry card? She works so hard to make money every
month, and all of that goes into your pockets!?”
“No. Mom!” Zephyr had never felt this speechless. “We made a promise back then. Cordelia said
that she’d take care of me forever!”
“Oh, very sessful of you now, huh?” Janine was dumbfounded. “You actually don’t mind
spending your wife’s money?”
Zephyr frowned and looked at his mother gloomily. She must not be able to understand that this
was how they flirted and showed love.
Due to his mother’s authority, though, he slowly pulled out the sry card. He always carried it with
him, tucked in the pocket of his shirt where it was the closest to his heart.
Cordelia beamed. Her pretty eyes turned into crescents, brimming with mischief and affection for
him.
Zephyr smiled as well and pinched her cheek.
“Just one card?” Janine red at him.
Zephyr paused. “What else?”
“And all your other cards. Give them all to Cordelia!”
Zephyr was rendered speechless.
“Without Cordelia’s permission, you’re not to spend as you wish, you hear me?”
Zephyr suddenly recalled Nichs asking him for a cigarette while hiding on the balcony when they
were back in Jangasas.
The current Cordelia was unlike the past Cordelia!
She had been unaware of his identity and felt bad for him, always worrying that he did not have
enough money.
Now that his little bunny was going to be a sessful career woman with the help of Janine,
she would definitely tighten the leash around him!
Zephyr subconsciously put a hand in his pants pocket. There was only a lighter in it, and he
clutched it like he was hiding a treasure.
…
Nichs took some time out of his busy schedule to have lunch with Zephyr. Both of them went to a
nearby mall after the meal.
“Are you buying something?” Zephyr looked at him strangely. “Hid some money of your own?”
Nichs red at him.
Zephyr understood and smirked. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell Linda.”
This was a tacit understanding between them.
Nichs sighed and chuckled wryly.
“Say, do women’s tempers change too when they get pregnant?”
“Why?”
“She picks on me every day!”
Zephyr gloated, “Can’t me her. It’s not like you’re perfect without anything to pick on!”
Nichs lifted a hand to punch him. They jostled a bit until Nichs called it quits and gloated as
well.
“I heard that Nelly Tanner is relentless about you?”
“Who told you?” Zephyr scowled.

“It’s everywhere, okay!” Nichs looked at him. “Thend project in the western suburbs you have,
the Tanners are involved too, right?”
Zephyr glowered and nodded.
Thepanies that had ced a bid for thend were Donmein and Lyan, which were under his
name. After thend was obtained, the development and management rights should be his as the
project was also shared among the Hamerton Group’s subsidiaries, but the Tanners refused to stay
in theirne.
