And now Cordelia said she would take good care of him.
Zephyr used to think that his life was unfair, that he had been living in the shadow of cunning affairs, making him think that he would be poisoned and assassinated anytime since he was 3 years old. He had his guard up against the world.
He could not see the good in people. There was a barrier around his heart, and he could no longer experience the wonder of the world.
However, he came to a realization after meeting Cordelia. ‘It turns out that what the world takes away from you will give back in another way.’
Zephyr had also realized that he was quite talented in pretending to be weak in her presence since meeting her…
He smiled and pinched her cheeks softly.
However, he heard footsteps coming from the other side of the corridor at the moment.
Cordelia’s heart squeezed when she saw who that slender man was.
“Phil?”
Zephyr was stunned too. He had his guard up as his eyes turned cold. “Why are you here?”
“Mr. Hamerton, Ms. Jenner.” Phil looked worried. “How’s Ms. Hamerton?”
Cordelia observed his face. His dark eyes were filled with concern for Zennie. There was none of the sleeping slyness he had revealed at Royal Manor.
“Zennie fell down and had stitches on her head,” she told the truth.
“What?” The corner of Phil’s lips switched. He looked sad. He really looked like a man with deep affection.
Phil walked to Zephyr and bowed, looking humble. “Mr. Hamerton, let me take care of her, please?”
“No need,” Zephyr responded coldly.
“Phil, three generations of your family have been working for the Hamertons. You guys have been loyal and responsible. I hope that you can maintain this advantage.” His voice was cold, and he looked majestic. “After all, we’ve never mistreated your family, am I right?”
