“Z!” Josiah called out. “Now that you guys have the certificate, should we celebrate with a feast?”
Zephyr snapped back to his senses. He nodded. “We should.”
“I’ll book the hotel!” Josiah took out his phone immediately and looked at Cordelia. “What would you like to eat?”
They were chipping in ideas, so it was a lively discussion.
Zephyr looked calm as he looked at the door quietly.
That person seemed to have left.
“What are you looking at?” Cordelia held his arm.
He chuckled and kissed her hair as he whispered, “Wait for me in the car. I’m going to make a call.”
She was stunned. She then realized that someone seemed not to have shown up today.
It was between them. Even if they had a conflict, they should be solving it themselves.
She smiled and gave him a gentle look. She then led the others to the car park.
After they left, Zephyr sat in the hall alone. A moment later, someone slowly walked in.
“Z…”
Zephyr lifted his eyes to look at him.
Fredric looked guilty. He smiled awkwardly and soon held his head down.
“Congratulations on your marriage with Cordelia.” He placed his gift. “This is a little something. I hope you like it.”
Zephyr remained still for a while.
Fredric stood there, finding himself in a pickle. He was well aware of Z’s ability not to show his emotions. He could never see what he was feeling on his face.
