“The best hotel in Centrolis is Splendor Dynasty!” Cordelia teased him while smiling. “Are you sure you want to do this?”
“It’s different this time!” Carter said seriously. “Brother-in-law, don’t call them in advance. I want to treat the two of you with the money I earned myself!”
“Hmm, I agree with that.” Zephyr nodded with a smile. “Don’t worry. I won’t do anything today. Just treat yourself as a regular customer at the hotel.”
Carter agreed happily.
They got home to pick up Xyla and got Janine there too.
Zephyr secretly got the people to save the best private room. However, he reminded them a few times not to waive the bill but to give the basic discount.
The others in the hotel did not understand that. Only the manager did.
Mr. Z’s brother-in-law wanted to buy dinner. It was only natural that they fulfilled his wish!
Therefore, the manager came up with a new menu. They served the best dishes in the private room, but it was cheaper than the other menus.
Robert looked at the manager and spoke with his eyes. “You’ve got a bright future ahead, brother!”
There would be laughter coming from the private room every now and then. Not far away from the room, someone was looking at them with a complicated look.
Nobody noticed him.
Just like when Cater stood on the stage, nobody noticed that someone in the audience was crying.
Charlie sighed softly. “Sir, let’s go. You’ve been standing here for a long time…”
“I…” Rowan was hesitating. In the end, he begged like a kid. “Let me watch for a little bit more.”
Charlie was helpless. He knew the pain and conflict Rowan was feeling.
From this angle, he could only see the subtle lights coming out of the room. They could not see anyone at all.
However, he could imagine how beautiful it was there.
There were Cordelia, Carter, and Xyla…
If he were in there, the family of four would be together. It would have been perfect.
If this happened in the past, Cordelia would feel bad. However, she had gotten used to him taking care of her now.
She smiled and said sweetly, “Thank you, Uncle Irwin.”
He clapped and said with a smile after doing that, “No need for that!”
In reality, he wished that she would call him ‘dad’ instead…
Cordelia proceeded to focus on the iPad in her hands.
Rowan went over to look.
He saw that she was looking at her wedding photos. She was smiling while looking, and there were twinkles of happiness in her big eyes.
His expression changed as he asked carefully. “Are you… getting married?”
“Mm-hmm!”
“Don’t you think it’s too fast!?”
