Chapter 655


    Ava’s face was flushing and turning pale. She stood aside, looking terrible. With a look from Zephyr, the


    maids around moved the food from the table to the trash can. “I heard at the door that you only bought


    her breakfast because you didn’t know what gift to get when you’re meeting her the first time?” His


    eyes were cold as he looked at Ava. Ava quickly nodded without knowing what he really meant. “You


    brought those things the first time you visit?” He scoffed. “Didn’t your parents teach you etiquette when


    you visit someone?” She was shocked. “Cousin—” “Although you’re uncle’s stepdaughter, you grew up


    in the Bakers.” Zephyr nced at her expressionlessly. “Go home to ask your parents what to do in


    situations like this. “You’re meeting me and my wife this time. Don’t embarrass yourself again when you


    visit someone else in the future. Don’t humiliate our family!” Ava’s shoulders were shaking as she


    clenched the side of her clothes with one hand. Zephyr ordered coldly, “Send the visitor away.” A male


    butler and a housekeeper in high-end suits walked forward with a smile. They nodded courteously to


    get Ava to leave. Ava took a deep breath. The moment she turned around, she saw Zephyr pouring


    porridge into a bowl carefully and feeding Cordelia from the corner of her eye. Cordelia’s blushed face


    was filled with joy. Ava bit her lip while clenching her fists. She ran out of the vi without turning her


    head. It was 9:00 a.m. when Cordelia was done eating. “Aren’t you leaving?” she asked while looking


    at Zephyr. “Don’t you have to work today?” He smiled. He could never finish his work. Being with her


    was more important to him. “My mom is there. There’s nothing much that I can help with.” “Go soon.


    Don’t exhaust your mom!” Cordelia tidied his tie thoroughly and grabbed his suit. The locals here were

    Nevertheless, among the locals, her husband was not shabby at all. He was even more outstanding


    than them. Cordelia’s eyes were filled with admiration. “Wifey, it’s actually useless for me to go today.”


    Zephyr held her shoulder and chuckled. “The meeting today is with the seniors and founding members.


    I don’t usually go to meetings like this.” “Oh…” She nodded. “Seniors? So, your uncle is there too?”


    “Yes.” Cordelia was hesitant. Zephyr knew what she was thinking and said softly. “Do you think my


    uncle is rather odd in the family?” Cordelia was stunned and smiled shyly. Could this man read minds?


    In reality, she had noticed that at the family dinner and had many questions. For instance, there was


    something strange about the way Noah spoke. It was shockingly direct sometimes. Another example


    would be him criticizing Janine and Zephyr behind their back and respecting them on the surface.


    However, it was obviously an act, and it was a very stiff act. It felt like someone ordered him to do that.


    Another thing was that the Bakers would usually marry someone from another prestigious family. Noah


    was the only one who had married a divorced woman with a child. Not only that but his wife, Hannah


    Johnson, was also born poor. She had even had to survive on relief funds for some time. Meanwhile,


    Janine, who was usually hot-tempered, seemed to be very patient with her brother. Zephyr looked at


    Cordelia while exining everything to her. “I heard from my mom that he used to learn horsemanship


    with her when they were young. The horse that she was riding suddenly started running. My uncle went


    chasing after it and stopped the horse. She was saved, but he fell from the horse… He became…


    wonky since that fall.” “Wonky?” “Mm-hmm…” Zephyr licked his lips, “His head isn’t very good now.”
