“Yes, sir.” Robert nodded.
It was just that Rowan was low-profile and mysterious. He had never liked making public appearances. He had even just attended but did not take a seat in the auction, so not many got to see him.
“He might be guarded if we ask to meet as us.” Zephyr had already thought of this.
“Then… under Mr. Matthew’s name?”
“No need.” Zephyr smirked. “Say that grandpa wants to meet him!”
Robert froze before replying, ”Mm, it’s an idea too. After all, Elder Mr. Hamerton’s reputation is significant. Rowan can’t just be rude.”

“Is your old injury relapsing?” Robert was worried.
Zephyr had been injured during the plane crash. Everything else had healed up nicely, but there was a sequela with his legs.
“Mm, it’s not serious.” Zephyr straightened up and said, “The weather’s getting colder recently, so they hurt quite bad sometimes. I’ll be fine after they adjust to the weather.”
“Do you want to… get Dr. Stafford to look at it again?”
Zephyr nodded lightly.
He remembered that he had been all bandaged up back then, and his bones had felt like they were being disassembled one by one. There had been a few times he thought he would die from the agony.
Seth had taken care of him diligently, unaffected by his glower. Now that he was all healed, the credit was all Seth’s.
He also vaguely remembered that Seth had given him a type of medicine before that was rather effective. Now that his old injury was acting up, he might recover soon after taking that medicine again.
