Janine sat down next to him. “Son, h-how did you know?”
Zephyr was rendered speechless. “Mom, do I look stupid to you?”
Janine kept silent.
“You can understand something like this with just a slight analysis!” Zephyr frowned.
He was just aware and had analyzed it too late.
Actually, all of this could be traced back to when the three of them were stranded on the deserted island.
He finally understood why Rowan kept his eyes on Cordelia and was concerned for her, just like how he would for his daughter. She was his actual daughter!
“Mom, what’s going on? Rowan’s already back. Why isn’t he reuniting with Cordelia?”
Janine looked at him and sighed. She pushed the documents waiting for her attention to one side and told her secretary on duty that no one was allowed to enter the office.
She then made a pot of chamomile tea and told Zephyr everything in the past.
“This is why Rowan doesn’t dare meet Xyla or reunite with Cordelia.”
Janine gnashed her teeth. “The sc*mbag cost Xyla’s whole life. What face does he have to meet her now?”
Zephyr’s expression was slightly dark as he stayed silent on the couch, recalling Rowan’s recent actions.
He thought that it meant Rowan was not planning to go back to Southeast Aciatic for the time being since he was already here in Centrolis and had taken on the joint hospital project. Not returning to Southeast Aciatic meant he wanted to reunite with Cordelia. It was just that a timely opportunity was missing.
Zephyr analyzed calmly. “Mom, Cordelia can’t be kept in the dark her whole life.”
