At present, Zephyr just wanted to go to his mother-in-law’s place.

He wondered if Rowan would follow Cordelia. ‘That old geezer! What does he want?’

When Cordelia arrived home, Xyla was basking in the sun on the balcony. She beamed when she saw her daughter

come in.

“Cordelia, come!”

Cordelia hurried over.

Xyla pointed at the succulents she had and boasted to her daughter, “Look how well I’m taking care of them! These

plants have a strong vitality. They thrive even when you water them once over a week!”

Cordelia chuckled. From what she could remember, her mother had never been known to have green fingers.

Anything that went through her hands would surely wilt. She once teased that the only living creatures her mother

did not kill were her daughter and Carter.

Xyla looked at Cordelia and smiled, knowing that her daughter must be laughing at her, but she tinkered with her

succulents anyway.

“Mom.” Cordelia was suddenly curious. “You’ve never grown plants in the past? I mean… before you had kids.”

“No.” Xyla shook her head.

That was because she had a botanical garden and a greenhouse back home. All the precious plants in the world

were there. They also had a private tropical forest. She never had to take care of them.

Cordelia collected the clothes on the balcony and folded them before cleaning the house.

Many times, her role and Xyla’s role were reversed. She was more like a mother, and her mother was more like a

daughter who needed to be cared for.

Cordelia chuckled and spoke. “Mom, sometimes I find you so strange… You have a princess vibe to you!”

Xyla froze for several seconds and suddenly felt sad.

She murmured, “Cordelia… I’ve caused you a lot of trouble and made you suffer grievances all these years.”

“No, no!” Cordelia ran over to hug her. “How could you think that? I don’t mean it that way!

“What I wanted to say is that you have an elegance to you. If I didn’t know you, I’d really think that you’re a

princess!”

Xyla looked at her and chortled.

It was just so that the mother and daughter stood before the dressing mirror.

Xyla looked at herself in the mirror—time had left its mark on her. Her daughter standing next to her was in the

prime of her youth and looked exactly like when she was younger.

She hugged her daughter tightly, pressing their faces together, and felt warmth gush in her heart.

“Right, Cordelia.” Xyla asked her, “You went to the Hamertons today, right? How was it? Did you meet his

grandfather?”

“I did,” Cordelia replied softly. “Grandpa was nice to me. Don’t worry.”

This was within Xyla’s expectations. She had received a strict education in terms of courtesy since she was a small

child. How to give presents and how to return the gesture were in the classes she attended growing up.

“Since you’ve already met the elders… when are you getting married to him?”

“Mom, it’s no hurry!”

“What are you talking about!?” Xyla widened her eyes. “No hurry? Are you going to just drag it on?”

Cordelia smiled. “I just want to work for a few years! My career’s just started. I should at least make something out

of it first!”

“You mean you want to make enough money before you marry him?”

Cordelia thought that her mother might not understand it if she told her about having financial independence and

developing herself as a person and whatnot, so she just went along with what she said and nodded.

“Goodness!” Xyla widened her eyes. “Are you silly? When can you ever make enough money? If you miss Zephyr,

though, where are you going to find another one like him?”

“Mom!” Cordelia looked at her, beaming. “Zephyr won’t run away!”

“That’s hard to tell! What if… another childhood sweetheart appears again? Like that something Tanner!”

“Whoever appears, he’s mine.” Cordelia was confident. “He won’t be able to run away!”

Xyla looked at her with a doting yet helpless gaze and sighed.
