Cordelia rushed to the Tanners after she was done with work and only remembered to send Zephyr a text when she was on her way.
[Been waiting for long? I’ll be there soon!]
Zephyr was bored out of his mind in the restroom, nearly bouncing off the couch when his phone pinged. It was his private phone with only Cordelia’s number saved.
This woman finally thought of him, huh?
Zephyr squinted and read the sentence repeatedly, and an unnoticeable hint of smile colored his eyes. He thought that he must not reply to her so fast. He ought to let her have a taste of being left in the blind—for at least 15 minutes!
In spite of it, at the tenth second of receiving the text, his fingers were already typing furiously on the screen.
[It’s okay. Work’s important!]
He stared at the screen smiling after sending it before his expression changed abruptly. Would it look like he was too accommodating in replying to her like this?
He quickly withdrew the reply and began typing again.
[Cordelia, I’ve waited for you for so long, I’m upset! Think about how you’re going to appease me when you’re here.]
Zephyr sent it and then thought it was inappropriate—and unsent it again.
The process was repeated several times, making Cordelia’s phone buzz nonstop. When she checked, however, there were a dozen of the same message on the screen—[Super-Duper Handsome Hubby in the Universe unsent a message].
‘What?’
Cordelia could not help chuckling.
He was the one who had changed his name to this and had returned the phone to her with a straight look after that.
Cordelia thought that she should change the name to Terrible Two Z.
Everything the man did in front of her was no better than a terrible two-year-old child.
