“Okay, stop it!”
Cordelia rejected softly. Her arms wrapped him.
Zephyr smiled and gave a long kiss on her neck, pressing down the burning desire that was surging inside of him.
He knew she was a conservative lady. She could not do it anywhere else other than their own bedroom.
It seemed he would have to make her get used to it.
“What are you thinking about, hubby?”
Zephyr snapped back his senses. He smiled at her after licking his dry lips.
“Do you feel much better now?”
“Mm-hmm!”
He said, “Wifey, what are you going to do about the shares?”
She bit her lip, not knowing how to tell him.
“The shares are worth nothing.” He played with her hair. “Take them if you want them. Don’t take them if you don’t want them. No need to struggle with it.”
“They’re worth nothing?” Cordelia laughed out loud. “You’re speaking as if you're rich! You don’t even care about the shares that are “worth nothing” now!”
Zephyr chuckled and said nothing.
Cordelia’s voice was coquettish as she drowned in his embrace. “Actually, I didn’t see him for the shares. I was only using the agreement to return the shares to test him.”
“Test him?”
“Don’t you think my dad’s being weird?” She had been calling him “dad” for over 20 years, and she had yet to adjust.
“He knew that I’m not his daughter, yet he gave me the shares. Why is that?
“Also, I recalled the past carefully. Although he didn’t give me much love, he paid for school and my daily necessities. He also paid for Carter.”
He lifted her eyes to look at him. “Hubby, looking at this as a man, would you do this to children that are not related to you?”
Zephyr’s eyes dimmed. He responded a moment later. “I will if I love the children’s mother.”
