Chapter 947
The atmosphere between the father and his two sons was a bit cold… Toph could not help sneezing.
After a moment of silence, Zephyr said in a low voice, “Go get changed. We’re going outter.”
“Huh?” Zuko was surprised. “Dad, I still have extra tutoring…”
“I’ve already asked your teacher for a leave.”
The little boy was a bit confused. “What could be more important than me going to ss?”
“Zuko Hamerton!” Zephyr raised his voice. “Do what I tell you to do. Where did this nonsensee
from!?”
“Oh…” Zuko shrank into himself silently.
Zephyr put his hands behind his back and walked away after giving them both a stern look.
Only after Zephyr was far away did Toph dare to stick his head out and ask his brother in a low voice,
“What’s wrong with dad today?”
“Sigh.” Zuko shook his head. “Maybe he’s annoyed about his pocket money!”
“That makes sense.” Toph agreed with the statement. “Mom gives us more pocket money every month
than she gives him!”
“Of course! We’re mom’s real sons!”
The two little guys smiled at each other and hurried upstairs to change their clothes.
It was not until they arrived at their destination that Zuko realized that their father’s bad temper today
was not because he was annoyed about his pocket money but because he was envious…
He was envious that Nichs had just had a daughter, while his wish to have a daughter was nowhere
near being fulfilled!
“Congrattions!”
Nichs’ daughter’s party was a grand affair. All the famous names in Centrolis were in attendance,
and Nichs went around greeting them.
After Zephyr had two drinks with him, they both went to entertain the guests together, nning to go to
the baby’s room after they were done to see the baby.
Cordelia had already brought her two sons over, and they were all gathered around the small cradle.

“Softly!” Cordelia held Zuko’s small hand and chortled. “Your little friend was just born not long ago and
needs to sleep more.”
Toph asked in a low voice, “Mommy, when I was just born, was I also this small?”
“Yes.” Cordelia rubbed his head. “When you and your brother were born, you were both this small, but
you ate and slept well, so you grew up quickly!”
“Then she must eat and sleep well to grow up quickly too, and we can y with her!”
“Hey, Zuko, remember what you said! You can’t go back on your word!” Lindaughed, looking at him
and then at Cordelia. “Do you still remember our previous agreement?”
“How could I forget?!” Cordelia could not help agreeing. They had previously said that if one of them
had a son and the other had a daughter, they would arrange a marriage between them.
It was just like how Zephyr and Cordelia’s mothers had already agreed on their marriage before they
were even born.
“But I have two sons. Should you have another daughter?”
“Heh, I don’t want to have any more. It’s already too stressful!”
Cordelia sensed that something was off with Linda’s expression and cautiously sat down next to her.
“What’s wrong?”
Linda was feeling frustrated. Maybe it was because she had just given birth, and her hormones had yet
to return to normal levels. She would asionally have wild thoughts and get stuck on small details.
Cordelia knew that well. Fortunately, Zephyr had been tolerant and considerate toward her during that
time and helped her through the most difficult days.

Nichs was also doting on Linda, almost treating her like a princess.
Cordelia patted Linda’s shoulder andughed lightly. “Linda, think more about Nichs’ strengths! How
can there be grudges between husband and wife?”
“I’m not holding a grudge against him. It’s just…” Linda sighed softly. “You have no idea. His family has
some really intolerable rtives!”
“Huh?” Cordelia was surprised. She had always thought that Nichs had no family left.
