“To sign Neil. Did you forget!?”
Nicholas was quite worked up. He had sacrificed his dignity to trade this with over 300 lipsticks!
“Don’t worry, I remember.” Zephyr chuckled.
The former looked at him hesitantly. “Really?”
“But I heard that the Imperial Media has been fighting for Neil. I think they’ve contacted him many times.”
Zephyr was stunned. Was that not Janine’s company?
So, his mother was interested in Neil too.
If they were to fight, he could not offend any side.
“Perhaps it’s just a rumor,” he said flatly. “I’ll find out for you.”
“Hmm, thanks!” Nicholas smiled. It was over 300 lipsticks! He could not let that go to waste no matter what.
…
When Zephyr returned to Royal Manor, he saw Cordelia making the bed as soon as he entered the room.
Her tiny body knelt on the bed, and each move was like a silent seduction attempt.
Zephyr was stunned and froze where he was…
He took a deep breath and walked to her. Hearing the sound behind her, Cordelia snapped her head back and saw his deep eyes.
“You’re home?” She smiled innocently. “I’ve just put on the new bedsheets. What do you think?”
How would he be in the mood to look at it? All he wanted was to roll around these new bedsheets with her…
“Hmm, not bad.” He glanced out of the corner of his eye.
“Do you like the pattern on it?”
“I do.” He stared fixedly at her. There seemed to be fire ignited in his eyes.
“Zephyr, maybe we should…”
“Buy more.” His voice was slightly husky as he grabbed her into his embrace.
Cordelia was stunned. She had no idea what had happened to him, but she heard his powerful heartbeat accelerating.
“Why should we… buy more?”
“For backup, of course.” He spoke close to her ear. His deep voice was alluring.
“I’ve already bought a backup…”
“It’s not enough!” He chuckled. “Change a new one every day.”
Cordelia widened her eyes. “Why must we do that?”
Zephyr licked his lips and gulped.
…
When Cordelia slowly opened her eyes, all she felt was the sore all over her body.
Meanwhile, the man next to her looked satisfied. He grabbed her into his arms, placing his chin on her fair and smooth shoulder.
“Zephyr…” Cordelia’s cheeks blushed. She wanted to scold him. When she saw his grinning eyes, she was intrigued to tease him.
“What?” The man raised his eyebrows.
“Hmm.” She touched his face intentionally and grabbed his chin with two fingers like he used to do to her. She lifted it in an overbearing manner. “You’re quite good-looking!”
“Hmm?”
