Chapter 584


    Hamerton men were great—except that they caved as soon as it was their wife.


    It was said that the Hamerton ancestors were high-ranking generals, noblemen, and schrs who were


    ruthless and iron-willed outside, but they were at their wives’ beck and call once they got home,


    indulging the women to no end.


    Nichs had once said that paranoia was passed down in the Hamertons. Actually, it was loving their


    wives that was etched in their genes.


    Cordelia said softly, “Darling, see? Mom agrees too!”


    Zephyr raised a brow. “Mom agrees but grandpa? Grandpa—”


    “Zephyr.” Liam’s expression was rtively solemn as he walked over from the crowd.


    Cordelia was a little embarrassed as she tugged Zephyr’s sleeve and shook her head at him. Her


    intention was to joke with him, but she would be shooting herself in the foot if she upset the old man.


    “Grandpa, don’t misunderstand!” Cordelia smiled. “I’m just mentioning this in passing to Zephyr…”


    “How could something so big be mentioned in passing!?” Liam raised his voice.


    Cordelia’s heart clenched as her hands gripped her dress anxiously.


    Liam squinted, raking his eyes across the both of them.


    “Zephyr, you really said that?”


    “Yes.” Zephyr held Cordelia’s hand discreetly and exined indifferently, “Back then, it was because…


    you kept objecting to our marriage, so I said that to coax her. Of course, I did think about it because I


    don’t want her to suffer from any grievances!”


    “Darling…” Cordelia called him softly and kept shooting him looks to stop him from continuing.


    They had finally gotten Liam’s approval. She did not want to spoil the old man’s good impression of her


    because of something petty like this.

    Liam’s face was nk. The atmosphere felt a little heavy, and the music naturally stopped. Everyone


    looked at him in worry, thinking that something bad would happen.


    A silent momentter, Liam suddenly said, “Mm, since you’ve said that, go ahead with it!”


    Everyone was bewildered.


    Zephyr looked like he choked on air.


    Cordelia was surprised, but a surge of warmth gushed in her. Theplicated feelings she felt were


    hard to describe.


    “Grandpa…” Zephyr chuckled dryly. “You want me to marry into the Irwins?”


    “You’re a man. A man ought to keep his word!” Liam red at him. “When have I objected? I feel like


    it’s my loss when my precious granddaughter marries you!”


    “Grandpa, you—”


    Zephyr chuckled and tried to hide behind Cordelia.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

    He suddenly recalled that Cordelia was the one who had stepped up and put herself in front of him


    back in Jangasas whenever something happened, worried that he would suffer a loss. He was happy to


    hide behind her, bliss filling him to the brim as he watched how she did everything she could for him.


    Now that they were back in Centrolis, he was still the same man who hid behind his girl.


    Before he met Cordelia, he had never known that it felt so wonderful to hide behind a woman!


    The music sounded once more. The conductor had asked the band to switch to a lighthearted melody,


    and the banquet went on, merrier than earlier.


    Janine and Kate exchanged a smile.


    “It looks like the old man lost his potential of having dementia.”


    “Hmm… did it get cured by Mr. Irwin’s needles?”


    “Say, you think Henry will grow a pair if he gets acupuncture too?”


    “Maybe! Come on, let’s go ask Mr. Irwin!”
