Janine had said that he would not have to show mercy to Rowan if they saw each other…
No matter what grudge they had, Rowan had offended his mother before.
Offending his mother would mean offending him. Naturally, he would not tolerate him!
“I don’t know much about him,” Zephyr said with his deep voice. “Cordelia, stay away from him.”
“Why?”
“Because…” He could not give a reason. “No matter what, this man is shrewd. Watch out when you work with him. Apart from working, stay away from him.”
But…
Cordelia pouted.
She was upset when she got home and saw her mother being alone and that only the succulents on the balcony were her company.
At that time, she had an idea. She wanted to get her mother a boyfriend. She would not be so lonely, at least.
She thought about it, and Rowan seemed to be the only one who fulfilled her conditions.
“Okay, Cordelia.” Seeing her hesitation, Zephyr gave a light peck on her forehead and said gently. “Let’s talk about something else.”
Cordelia yawned. She flipped over and lay on the bed.
She was really sleepy now.
She shut her eyes and fell asleep soon. She heard Zephyr saying something before her consciousness went fuzzy. She soon started to dream.
In the dream, she was in a dark ancient forest. It was so quiet she could hear water flowing and the frogs croaking.
As she went forward, she could see the subtle lights.
She grabbed by instinct, and she grabbed a firefly! She was surprised and happy. When she looked closely… The firefly had two pairs of wings.
A double-winged firefly? She thought about it in confusion in the dream.
