Zephyr was stunned. “What did you say?”
“Will you help me?”
‘Of course, I will!’ he screamed inside.
However, he remained calm on the surface. He coughed and said in a deep voice, “Why are you asking for my help out of nowhere?”
“Because…” Cordelia paused. “Apart from my own hard work, I’ll have to make use of all of the resources I have to achieve something, am I right?”
Zephyr was quite surprised.
His lecturer had said the same thing in the first class of the business school. The right time, right place, and right people would determine one’s success.
Cordelia looked at him with her big eyes and smiled. “I’m trying to interview the best actor! Given my status, I’m afraid that even his assistant will look down on me. This is certainly a mission impossible. Everyone is waiting to make fun of me.
“However, I have an omnipotent superman with me…”
She stretched her arms and squeezed his face. She was so sweet when she smiled.
“If this superman can lend me a little bit of his superpower to do my job, I’ll be so grateful!”
“What will you do?”
“Don’t you need a pair of leather shoes?” She blinked. “I’ll buy you the best one!”
“That’s all?”
“And…” She looked down and pursed her lips. “I’ll take care of you for the rest of your life.”
Zephyr’s heart melted. He held her hand and looked at her gently with an alluring look on his face. He whispered into her ear, “Roger that.”
He was getting his phone out as he spoke.
Cordelia stopped him instantly and smiled. “You don’t have to call anyone right away. Let me try first. If nothing works, I’ll have to get help from Mr. Hamerton!”
Zephyr pulled her into his embrace while smiling.
He recalled what that old fortune teller had said. She had said that Cordelia had the life of an empress and that she was destined to prosper.
