Chapter 505
Cordelia chuckled dryly and punched him.
“I was on the phone with Josiah.” Zephyr began to lie in all seriousness. “He’s been doing great with
Kelly recently, and the two of them have been looking for social-media-famous shops online every day.
They found one again… and asked us to try it with them!”
Cordelia blinked. “Is he serious about Kelly? He better not be interested at the moment and not care
about her once the novelty wears off!”
Zephyr smiled softly. “Josiah has a wealthy background and is carefree usually. He could sometimes
be flippant too… but I can guarantee that he’s one of the rare good men left in this world.”
“Oh, didn’t expect you to think of him so highly!” Cordelia’s eyes were shining yfully. “Then are you
going to tell me that you’re even more of a good man since your friend’s a good man too?”
“Birds of a feather flock together,” Zephyr replied seriously. “I wouldn’t be humble for the sake of it, and
anyone who’s my close friend is naturally decent too!”
“Okay, so I’ve got myself a treasure. Happy?”
“I’m the one who’s got himself a treasure.” Zephyr held Cordelia’s hand with an affectionate smile. The
love in his eyes was gooey, just like melted sugar.
He went closer to her ear and said unhurriedly, “The woman who’s my wife is naturally… the one and
only good woman in this world!”
Cordelia blushed and smiled.
The man’s voice was nice, and what he said was nice too. Recently, he’d kept using this nice voice to
say nice things to her. Was he trying to kill her with all this sweetness?!
When they had gone backst week, X hadplimented her, saying she’d gotten prettier once
she’d stepped inside. It had surprised her because she knew X had a high standard and strict
conditions for the word “pretty”.
It seemed that love was really the best makeup for a woman. When she met the right man, the genuine
bliss and unique charm she exuded would liven her up.
“What are you smiling about?” Zephyr looked at her.

Cordelia looked up to meet his deep eyes and chuckled. “I’m just thinking that the heavens have been
really nice to us. They let us be together, Linda and Nichs reconciled, and even Josiah and Kelly
became an item!”
Zephyr nodded. Well, she would soon find out that there was also Frederic and Trinity…
Actually, he had been nning it. Trinity was straight but if she acted the part long enough, she might
awaken some inner calling. What if she changed her ***ual orientation one day? She would seduce
Cordelia then!
Zephyr, who had been wanting to set up Seth and Zennie, had immediately decided that he could put
off his sister’s rtionship to make Frederic and Trinity’s rtionship official!
“Zephyr,” Cordelia said softly. “We shouldn’t just be happy ourselves. We want the people around us to
be happy too! Right?”
“Yes!” Zephyr smiled. He had been about to mention Trinity’s crush on Frederic, only for the girl to beat
him to it.
“Our friends are all in pairs now, so we can’t overlook our elders!”
“Huh?” Zephyr paused.
“I need to arrange for my mom to meet Uncle Irwin again!”
…
Centrolis had been sunny for days, while there was a light drizzle shower in Jangasas. There were
even two hailstorms, and the drop in temperature could take one aback.
William’s empty office was pretty much dead. He had caught a cold himself too.
Upon going out today, he had forgotten his umbre, so he waspletely soaked.
He was annoyed going back home too, as he had to step inside, only to see Marcus the freeloader.
Thetter had been around for over a year, sent here by Yale. No one had said anything about what he
should do with Marcus, and thetter had just been ced here.
Initially, Yale used to send him money, but this had stoppedter.
Marcus was a true freeloader and only knew how to ask for money. If he did not get what he wanted,
he had hundreds of ways to destroy the peace of the Jenners.
Even a sly fox like William could not stand him. As long as Marcus asked for money, he gave it to him,
feeling like he was buying his peace.
William had no money now, though, so he could not afford his peace anymore.
He frowned and called Yelena. It took a long time before the girl picked up. When she did, her voice
was small and a little shaky.
“Dad, what is it?”
“You’re in Centrolis all the time now. Have you forgotten that your home’s in Jangasas?” William
scolded her as soon as the call connected. “What’s Mr. Yale’s n? How long will we be keeping
Marcus here?!”
“Dad, I… I don’t know.”
“You useless piece of trash!” William was angry. “Did you not keep Yale happy? Did you anger him?”
“No…”
“Then what does he want?! Are we supposed to feed Marcus forever?”Books Chapters Are Daily

Yelena stayed quiet, and William heard a low panting sound with some pained moansing from the
speaker. The call was cut very soon. He was furious and he wanted to call back, but he heard a certain
someone’s drawled snicker.
“Of course you have to feed me forever!”
“You…” William red at Marcus, who was lying on the couch.
He had no idea how long it had been since the man had taken a shower. He could smell the foul scent
on him even from several meters away, and the couch was a mess.
The servants at home had been dismissed, so all this could only be cleaned up by Joanne.
Speaking of her, she came out with a broom and had to restrain herself so she did not break down
when she saw the living room, where there was barely a clean spot to stand.
William was triggered and grabbed the broom to hit Marcus.
Marcus got up abruptly to fight back and easily shoved William to the wall. As William’s back hit the
wall, Joanne cried and ran over in tears.
“Hah, wrong?” Marcus sneered, “Aunt Joanne, our families have been friends for generations!”
“Argh!” Joanne growled. “You unlucky man. Are you going to drag us down after causing your entire
family to die?”
“Our families have known each other for generations anyway. You have to take care of me!” Marcus
red, looking as though he was going to fight.
Joanne wanted to say something more, but William held her back.
He looked at Marcus quietly. He had the same face as Zephyr, but they were twopletely different
men. How ironic… He had heard that Matthew and Yale had wanted to train him and make him
impersonate Zephyr when they had found him but, hah, how could a mere bug possibly turn into a
majestic dragon?
However, something desirable mighte out if a mere bug was utilized properly… William had an
idea. He had wanted something to hold against Cordelia, and this seemed to be his chance.
