Cordelia lifted her face and said while feeling a little troubled. “I’m afraid I can’t go next week… I’ll start work at Imperial Media tomorrow.”
“So soon?”
“Yes.” She smiled.
After resigning from the news agency, Janine called her many times to get her to work as soon as possible.
Although she wanted to rest a little bit more, her career came first. After all, she was eager to become a successful woman, just like Janine.
“Hmm… Don’t worry.” Zephyr thought about it. “I’ll tell my mom to give you one day off.”
Cordelia frowned. “That’s a terrible idea!”
“It’s not.” He chuckled, patted her head, and said, “This banquet is important. You must come.”
Clearly, she did not understand why he said it was important.
She did not know that she was the owner of the land in the western suburbs. She assumed he meant because Nelly would be there too, while he did not want to show up with Nelly.
Cordelia smiled. Her dimples filled all of the happiness that she was feeling.
…
A few days later, Janine sat with her arms crossed seriously in the Imperial Media’s director’s office. She stared at the man before her with a suppressive demeanor.
The man had a subtle smile on his chiseled, cold, and handsome face.
“Mom…”
Janine glanced at him and ignored him. She continued to stare at her computer.
Zephyr had only bowed his head to two women in his life. One was his wife, while the other was his mother.
“Mom, my request isn’t too much. Why can’t you say yes?”
“Because I say so!” Janine’s tone was firm.
