Chapter 487
Rowan quietly watched the mother and daughter as his vision blurred. He fell in a daze, and the crate
in his hands fell to the ground. The small Siamese cat meowed helplessly and began to w at the
crate door.
A strong arm held onto him then.
Startled, Rowan turned to meet Zephyr’splicated gaze.
“You…”
Zephyr picked the crate up. “Mr. Irwin, are you not going in?”
Rowan’s eyes were still red. It took him a few deep breaths to calm his emotions down.
Zephyr sympathized with him for some reason. He had not thought it was a good idea when Cordelia
was making arrangements for this, but he could not bear to interrupt her, seeing how excited she was.
He was afraid of something undesirable happening today when Rowan and X met, so he had stayed
there to keep an eye out.
When he saw the old geezer’s shocked and regretful look, he felt a mix of feelings.
After he survived the ne crash, Rowan had sent him specialized medicine to treat him. The older
man had said he was not getting involved with the Tanners, but he healed Kelly.
Even on the day when his grandfather passed out, Rowan had gloated for one second before he
rushed to Hamerton Manor with his medical kit. Yes, it was for Cordelia, but he had also saved Liam
from a critical condition.
Furthermore, Irwin Pharmaceuticals had saved countless lives by producing good quality and cheap
medicine each year.
By the look of things, Rowan was a good man. However, only X had personally experienced his bad
side.
People wereplex. One could not bebeled or determined as good or bad with a matter or two.
The adults’ world was never just ck and white, to begin with. Many times, it was gray.
“I…” Rowan was silent for a moment. His voice was tinged with a sob. “I won’t be going. Cordelia will
like this cat… Pass it to her for me.”
“It probably isn’t Cordelia who likes this cat.” Zephyr looked at him cryptically. “It’s my mother-inw,
X Irwin.”
Rowan felt his heart drop. He lost his bnce a little as he felt dizzy.
Zephyr sighed. “Mr. Irwin, I’ll get someone to send you back for some rest.”

“Zephyr…” Rowan sounded weak. “You brat, did you find out something?”
Zephyr smiled without saying anything.
Rowan muttered under his breath, “I should’ve guessed it. Janine and her big mouth—”
“I don’t know anything.” Zephyr patted his shoulder. “I only know the two women in there. The both of
us are going to protect them from now on.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For

Rowan was stunned. After a long moment, there was a resolute andforted gaze in his eyes. Well,
this son-inw of his was growing easier on his eyes. He was smart and had a way with words.
Rowan nodded and padded to the car by the road holding the crate.
It was until they drove off that Zephyr entered the cafe.
Cordelia was surprised when she saw him. “What brings you here?”
Zephyr sat next to her with a smile. “Some details about the hospital project have to be decided. I’ve
called to meet and will head to the office in a while.”
“What?” Cordelia looked at him. “Is there a meeting today? Why didn’t anyone tell me!?”
“You’re the big boss, no need to worry over something small like this.” Zephyr slung an arm around her
shoulders. “The big boss can rest well when I, the dutiful worker, am around!”
Cordelia giggled, her eyes shining with bliss.
Zephyr took the excuse of ordering coffee and pulled Cordelia to the side to tell her softly, “Mr. Irwin’s
attending to decide on the details too, so he won’t be able to make it today. Let mom know nicely.”
