A fit of giggles escaped Cordelia. How could it be the same?
Ginger’s fur was soft, and this man’s hair was as hard as his temper.
Despite that, she stroked his handsome face and flashed a soft smile.
“Darling.” Zephyr held her hand.
Cordelia thought he was hungry and told him seriously, “Aunt Helen’s on break today. There’s no one cooking.”
Perhaps they had been worn out with work recently. They exchanged a glance and shared a tacit smile, both continuing to slack on the couch.
Cordelia had gone through 2/3 of the book she was reading while Zephyr continued hugging her after he switched to another position.
As they looked outside, though, the weather was so nice that it would be a pity to waste it.
Zephyr’s stomach growled.
Cordelia smiled and wanted to get up to make him something to eat when he held her back.
“Cordelia, don’t bother! We can go out to eat.”
“Huh?” Cordelia chuckled wryly. “I really don’t want to eat at Splendor Dynasty anymore…”
Zephyr rubbed her hair with a smile. “If the head chef hears you say that, he’ll feel incredibly insulted!”
“I don’t mean it like that!” Cordelia hurried to explain, “It’s just that we’ve been so many times that I have already memorized the menu! We should change it up sometimes.”
“Oh! Mrs. Hamerton, you’re pretty picky, huh? You want to change it up sometimes?” Zephyr hooked a finger under her chin and stared into her eyes with his deep ones. “Are you thinking about changing me up too?”
“If that’s possible, I kind of want to.” Cordelia pushed him away with a grin.
“You—”
It triggered Zephyr, and he pulled her over to hug her so tightly she could barely breathe.
“Alright, stop it!”
Zephyr narrowed his eyes and licked his lips. If he were not hungry right now, he would make sure she learned her lesson right there and then!
“Zephyr, where are we eating?” Cordelia looked obedient and docile. “I’ll buy today. You pick the place, okay?”
“Then…” Zephyr took out his phone for a quick search. “This one!”
