“Hubby!”
Cordelia shook her head and signaled him. Then she started to comfort Zennie.
The latter was not scared. In reality, her brother had been doing this to her since she was young. She was already immune to his grim face.
On the other hand, Cordelia was apologetic. She quickly cleaned up the mess on the floor.
Zephyr wanted to help, but she stopped him gently and gave him a kind smile. “Let me do it. You don’t know how. Don’t hurt your hands.”
She was quick and cleaned the floor in a jiffy. Customers came in at that moment, so she hurried to the courtyard to welcome them.
Kate had been watching aside. She peeped at Zephyr and snuck up to him when she had the chance. She chuckled.
“Your wife isn’t bad!”
He was stunned.
She smiled. “Although I’m not your mother by blood, I watched you grow. I can tell that you’re really in love with Ms. Jenner!”
Zephyr looked at her. There was still no change to his cold face.
Kate knew him well. Sometimes, she pitied the children of the Hamertons.
They looked sophisticated and seemed like they had every luxury in the world, but they did even have the decision power in their marriage.
Kate was opinionated and thought that was contradictory. Therefore, she was willing to do her best to help Zephyr and Cordelia.
“Zephyr, when are you going to bring Ms. Jenner home?”
Zephyr thought for a long time and said in a deep voice. “We can’t be hasty about this. Too many interests are involved in each marriage in the Hamertons. If something goes wrong, I fear they will…”
“Hurt Ms. Jenner?” Kate scoffed. “Hah, let them try! I’ll be the first to fight them if anyone dares to even think about it!”
“Will you fight… grandpa too?”
Zephyr was rendered speechless.
“Ah, hehehe…”
Kate could not fix her problem of speaking before processing her thoughts.
“I’m being serious, Zephyr!” She coughed. “No matter what, your father and I approve of this. However, you’d have to consult your mom about this. She’s your mother by blood, after all. Her approval matters.
“Moreover, wouldn't the odds be even higher if you got your maternal grandfather’s support?”
Zephyr’s hands that were washing the mugs suddenly froze. His eyes turned grim.
Kate was right, but getting his mother’s approval was hard.
She was not an easy-going person like Kate, but overbearing and strict. Her decisiveness was as powerful as men’s.
