Chapter 176
Yelena forced herself to tolerate it, letting Cordelia continue to victimize herself.
“Sister, a-are you really not going to forgive me?”
“There’s no place for you here.” Cordelia’s eyes were cold. “Please leave.”
“Cordelia…”
“Get out, now!” Cordelia clenched her fists and teeth, glaring at her fiercely.
Although Yelena had been bullying her since she was young, she would be scared whenever Cordelia was furious.
Moreover, she had a man who was like a devil next to her now…
Yelena bit her lip. Since Cordelia chased her out, she could not wait to leave, given that she had already apologized.
“C-Cordelia, I’ve apologized. There’s nothing that I can do if you don’t forgive me!”
Yelena staggered back while speaking until she got into the courtyard. She even tripped on the cobblestone path.
Cordelia took in a deep breath. She tried her best to control herself.
Zephyr patted her back softly and hugged her carefully.
She told her concern softly, “Hubby, I think something’s wrong with her. Don’t tell me she’s only apologizing for a show, but she actually has something up her sleeves?”
Zephyr’s eyes turned grim. In reality, that was what he thought as well.
Yelena left in a panic, but she did not leave far. Zephyr got Cordelia to stay in the shop to take care of the customers while he secretly followed the former.
He thought he wanted to find out what she was up to.
However, just when he stepped out of the courtyard, he saw shadows in the corner at the side of his eye.
Feeling suspicious, he snapped his body back when he heard footsteps!
At that moment, a few people ran away from the bushes where they were hiding.
Zephyr jumped over it in a few steps. He was agile. His eyes were sharp, and he saw a familiar face flash by!
He scoffed and punched, almost hitting Nicholas’ temple! Seizing the opportunity that he was panicking, he quickly grabbed his wrist.
“N!” His men came around him.
Nicholas started fighting Zephyr. Just when he raised his leg to kick Zephyr, the latter drew a pistol from his waist and pointed at Nicholas’ head!
The air seemed to have frozen at the moment. His men were dumbstruck and froze where they were.
Nicholas was quite shocked too.
Zephyr carried a pistol with him!?
“Freeze!” Zephyr said in a deep voice, his face cold. His ferocious eyes made the men step back.
Nicholas gave his signal. His men backed off slowly, but they remained alert.
“Mr. Thompson, just go in if you like a cup of coffee. Are you trying to secretly learn and start your own cafe by hiding at the door?”
Nicholas scoffed. He peeped at the pistol in his hand at the corner of his eye.
It was small, the best pistol to carry around.
The unique patterns on the grip hinted that the pistol was expensive.
It was called the Glock. It was small, but its lethality was three times higher than the regular pistols.
Nicholas saw it once from an arms dealer. That man was treating this pistol like a treasure, eager to build a shrine for the pistol to worship it.
He smiled and said, “Aren’t you afraid to scare your little wife to be carrying this around?”
“Compared to this pistol, I’m more worried that you’d scare her!” Zephyr exerted force. It was a little painful for Nicholas to have the muzzle against his head.
His eyes became fiercer as he enunciated each word. “Nicholas, you’ve found out that I’m not Marcus from the beginning, right?”
Nicholas said nothing. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The surroundings suddenly became silent. The noise of the bushes being blown by the night breeze was extra clear.
