In the evening, Zephyr and Cordelia returned to the Royal Manor.
They started kissing in the car as soon as it was parked in the courtyard, so the suppressive space was filled with romance.
Her breathing quickened. However, she shoved his hands away, signaling for him to only do that at home.
Although they had been together for a long time, she was still very conservative in this aspect. It was private, so it was natural that she needed privacy to do that.
“Wifey…” Zephyr complained. “I can’t hold back anymore!”
“You have to!” Cordelia lay on his chest like a kitten and warned him politely. “Don’t force me to take your allowance away!”
Zephyr felt terrible. He held her hand and kissed it.
However, he knew that as soon as she went into a private space and the curtains were closed, she would no longer be the lady who blushed because of a mere kiss…
She could take his soul away when she let go. That feeling was just…
He felt a squeeze in his heart. He snapped up and picked her up, the two of them getting out of the car and rushing to their home!
They hugged at the door. However, before he managed to kiss her, the lights in the living room were suddenly turned on!
Cordelia screamed.
They saw Robert standing in the living room with Ginger in his hands, while Aunt Helen was smiling happily. The living room was decorated beautifully, while the marble floor was filled with scattered rose petals. Romance filled every corner.
“Surprise!” Robert grabbed Ginger’s paw to wave at them.
“How’s this, sir and madam?” Robert was excited. “It was my idea!”
Cordelia was blushing, but her eyes were smiling.
Zephyr, on the other hand, was stunned for over ten seconds. He almost spat out blood.
Why was it Robert every time?! Every single time!
He was too much this time. He had chosen to give them a surprise that day with Ginger and Aunt Helen!
Had he not specifically told him to get as far away as he could after they collected their marriage certificate?
“Robert!”
The roar almost tore the house apart.
However, Robert did not panic about making a mistake. Instead, he began laughing with Aunt Helen.
Cordelia pulled at Zephyr, who wanted to beat Robert up immediately.
Aunt Helen said with a smile, “You can’t yell like this, sir. It’s too much for your body! I made soup, so eat it with madam for supper!”
Ginger looked at him quietly. It then licked its lips and meowed.
“Sir!” Robert was almost out of breath from laughing. He walked over to them and bowed. “Don’t worry, sir. Even if I was an idiot, I wouldn’t interrupt the most important time of your life!”
Zephyr stared at him. “What are you doing?”
“I’m…” Robert scratched his head. “Just pulling your leg… Hahaha!”
He had not intended to interrupt his moment with Cordelia every single time.
This would be considered the end of it! He would definitely be alert when he was around them. He would show up when he should and he would disappear when needed!
“Don’t blame him, sir.” Aunt Helen smiled. “It was your grandpa who sent him here. He insisted that he tell you to bring madam home for lunch tomorrow. She’ll take over the Hamertons from now on!”
Only Zephyr calmed down.
Robert continued. “I’m taking Ginger to Madam Xyla and Aunt Helen back to the manor!”
They vanished in the night with Ginger.
Cordelia could not hold back, as her belly was hurting from laughter. A pair of big hands grabbed her from behind. Before she managed to react, she was carried to the bedroom upstairs.
The man pressed her against the bed, his eyes soft.
