Chapter 647


    The temperature outside had dropped tonight, so one must cover up well under the nket. After that,


    one could do anything they wanted.


    …


    Seth had been keeping Zenniepany all this while.


    After what they had been through, Seth finally recognized his feelings. However, Zennie had suffered a


    huge blow and turned back to how she was back when her depression started, talking and smiling less.


    Seth could barely make jokes to cheer her up, but what he could give her was his unwavering


    company.


    Zephyr and Cordelia came to Gale Bay that day and saw Kate standing outside of Zennie’s room. The


    woman could not see anything but was still peeping through the gap in the door, standing on tiptoe or


    bending down low.


    There was a faint sadness to her plump back. It made one feel the worry and concern a mother had.


    Cordelia suddenly felt a pinch in her nose. Maybe it was because she was bing a mother too, and


    she empathized with what Kate currently felt.


    “Oh, Zephyr, Cordelia, you’re here?”


    Kate forced a smile.


    She was without thick makeup today—she had not put on any makeup for a long time to be precise.


    She was not motivated to do anything after what happened to her daughter.


    After all, there was a generation gap between her and Zennie, and she was unable to enter her


    daughter’s world. She could only stay anxious on the side.


    “I didn’t expect Phil Nelson to be so horrible!” Kate teared up once she thought about it. “Zephyr, you


    know that I’ve never cared about family background or status. As long as Zennie likes someone, I


    support her. But I didn’t expect that…


    “It’s my fault! I’ve failed her as a mother. My daughter had been manipted for so long, and I didn’t


    even notice it!”


    “Aunt Cloud, don’t say that.” Cordelia hugged her. “You gave Zennie enough tolerance and respect and


    let her grow up in a healthy and happy environment, making her a princess without the princess


    syndrome… It’s more than impressive!”

    “Cordelia…” Kate’s tears fell.


    Cordelia wiped the tears away for her and smiled at her, giving her an encouraging look.


    “Aunt Cloud, don’t worry. All of Zennie’s photos in Phil’s phone have been deleted. The photos weren’t


    published, so they didn’t affect anything. Zennie’s reputation won’t be damaged.”


    “Mm!”


    “It’s just that…” Cordelia frowned. “The girl carries too much weight in her heart. It might take some


    time before she recovers.”


    “It probably won’t be long,” Zephyr said softly.


    He opened a small gap in the door, and the three of them stood there. They watched as Seth fed


    Zennie some congee patiently.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books


    Updates…


    Zennie had not eaten much since morning, and this meal was one that she had the best appetite for


    across these days.


    Kate’s eyes lit up, and she broke into a smile. She closed the door gently and waved her hand for


    Zephyr and Cordelia to go to the living room.


    Cordelia and Zephyr smiled at each other. The energetic Aunt Cloud was back again.


    “Zephyr, Cordelia, say… is Dr. Stafford serious about Zennie?”


    “Of course!” Zephyr chuckled. “Aunt Cloud, Seth took care of me alone after the ne crash. It’s how I


    recovered. I didn’t even know him at that time.


    “I can guarantee that he’s a good man. He won’t y Zennie for a fool.”


    “That’s good, that’s great!” Kate smacked herp and grinned brightly.


    Actually, she approved of the son-inw the first time Seth came. Considering that Zennie was young


    and thinking that Seth was Zephyr’s friend and she could not be too forward, she kept it all to herself


    and said nothing.


    It was wonderful now. Her wish was granted.


    Cordelia asked with a smile, “Aunt Cloud, you’re happy about Dr. Stafford, huh?”


    “Of course!


    “She can be anything she wants as long as she keeps Dr. Stafford around. Whatever works!


    “Oh, right!” Kate arched her brow and asked, looking at Zephyr carefully, “Can Dr. Stafford… be


    married into our family too?”


    “Uh…” Zephyr chuckled. “I’m afraid not.”


    “Oh, I thought he could ept it too,” Kate muttered softly. “Never mind then. Anything goes as long as


    my daughter is happy.”


    Zephyr froze. “Aunt Cloud, what do you mean by ‘too’?”


    Who else was a son-inw marrying into the wife’s family in the Hamertons?


    “Too?” Kate was also stunned. “Aren’t you one too? I thought your friends were like you!”


    “I—” Zephyr choked and nearly spat the water he drank.
