Chapter 559


    The old man had seemed to be proud and arrogant in the past. Since when had he be so


    submissive?


    “Grandpa.” Cordelia pushed the urge tough down and held her husband’s hand gently under the


    table. “I actually feel like having sushi too. And unagi-don!”


    “Oh…” Liam gave it some thought and shot rk a look.


    rk nodded. The Ilbon chef perked up and stood straight, taking a deep bow before answering


    sonorously, “Hai!”


    He then went to the kitchen to prepare the food.


    Zephyr looked like he was in despair as he slowly exhaled.


    The manor felt oppressive. He might as well refuse to eat the next time he came back. His grandfather


    would not just watch the heir he had personally trained starve, right? His wife would feel bad for him too


    and might treat him better—maybe increase his allowance and give him back the ck card…


    He decided then and there to do it!


    Zephyr beamed and enjoyed the sashimi in front of him.


    “Mr. Zephyr.” rk came in with a document. “These are the sponsorship details for the University of


    Centrolis next year. See—”


    Zephyr was about to take the document when Liam interrupted lightly. “Give it to Cordelia. She calls the


    shots now!”


    “Huh? Grandpa?” Zephyr paused.


    “Right, I forgot to tell you.” Liam wiped his mouth with a napkin. “I think Cordelia’s very professional


    when ites to finance management—practical too, much stronger than you! So I decided to not just


    hand over the family finances to her. Thepany finances can be slowly passed over to her as well!”


    Zephyr widened his eyes. “Then I—”


    “Your ability to make money is still decent.” Liam had done his calctions. “You’ll make money, and


    Cordelia will handle the money. Won’t it be great?”


    “…Yes, it’ll be pretty good.”

    Zephyr grimaced. Thinking of the mission” he had made afterst night’s hard work, he put on a


    pitiful smile.


    Cordelia looked at him yfully and grinned, making him melt right away.


    His hand crept up to her slim waist, and he held it lightly.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join &

    “Darling,” he said softly. “Can I stop working hard? Take care of me.”


    Cordelia smiled without a word and took the document from rk to go through it.


    “Grandpa, I’ve calcted this,” she said softly. “I think the ratio for next year’s sponsorships can be


    increased. The sum of ssroom buildings and dorms remains the same, but the sum ofboratories


    should be higher than in the past years.”


    Liam was delightfully surprised. It was exactly what he had thought.


    “Why’s that?”


    “Engineering and medicalbs are ces where one can get results. So the teachers and students


    should have the best in order for them to do research without worrying.


    “The research results will definitely be beneficial to Hamerton Group, so consider it a long-term


    investment.”


    “Mm.” Liam nodded in approval. “Let’s do as you say!


    Cordelia paused and nodded with a soft smile.


    “I saw the schrship name list for this semester earlier. Carter Irwin came in first again,” Liam said


    with a smile. “He’s an uing talent for sure!”


    “Carter works very hard.” Cordelia looked pleased. “And he’s a smart boy, especially when ites to


    medicine. It’s like he understands without needing a teacher.”


    “Yes,” rk said with a smile. “Mr. Irwin’s schrship is regarding a thesis in medicine too… I think it’s


    —it’s rted to acupuncture!”


    “Acupuncture?” Cordelia froze and felt her heart skip a beat.


    Liam instantly eyed rk to stop him from going on. He then met Zephyr’s eyes, which looked rather


    solemn.


    Cordelia did not know about it yet… but given how smart she was, she would definitely connect the


    dots.
