Zephyr snickered.
Robert had already informed him of the entire incident, and he was just thinking about how he could penalize Ava, only for her to send herself to his door!
“Darling, stay out of this. I’ll—”
“Let me take care of this myself!” Cordelia’s gaze was determined.
Zephyr turned around and looked at her rather worriedly. He put a hand on her waist.
“If you weren’t pregnant, I’d certainly let you handle it. But you’re carrying a baby. I’m afraid that—”
“Afraid that I will get mad?” Cordelia chortled. “Will I get mad so easily? Honey, don’t worry. I already know what to do. Let me handle it, okay?”
Zephyr could never say no to her.
No matter how worried he was, he nodded in agreement and asked his people in the company to be alert and keep his wife safe.
His wife was his to spoil and coddle unconditionally!
“Okay.” He chuckled. “I have a surprise for you after you’re done with this.”
…
A while later, Cordelia arrived at the Baker Group, and Ava came to get her personally and take her up to a meeting room on the top floor.
She saw the employees from the other day—Sarah, Jenny, and Fan.
The three of them had obviously lost their pompousness from the other day and were hanging their heads like deflated balloons. There was a flash of fear in their eyes when they saw Cordelia.
Cordelia remembered that none of them had spoken Acian that day. However, their Acian was much more fluent than everyone else’s right now.
“Mrs. Hamerton!” Fan went up and bowed. “I’m sorry! I didn’t know it was you that day. Please be the bigger person and forgive us for offending you!”
Cordelia smiled. It seemed that not only could she speak Acian, but she knew phrases too.
