The men gathered in the bar’s private room. It was rare for them to relax.
Many good things had happened lately. Josiah and Kelly were engaged. They were going to get married a year later.
At the same time, their companies will collaborate by then.
From now on, the Bayers and the Tanners would head toward a brighter future together.
Not only had Seth succeeded with his confession, but Zennie was so outstanding she got seven A’s in the spring
self-enrolment program. The Centrolis Medical Institute made an exception to accept her. She was enrolled as an
undergraduate and Master’s degree student.
She and Seth promised they would study to become doctors together. They would work together at the operating
table in the future.
Nicholas was confused. Why were these academic tyrants so dramatic even in love? How old would they be after
they were done with their studies? Did they want to get married and have kids? Were they in a relationship to
sacrifice to humans in the medical field?
“You’re uncultured, N. You won’t understand the joy of being academic tyrants!” Josiah chuckled.
Nicholas glared at him with his side eye grimly, giving the former a shiver.
In the next second, it was as if a wolf was eating a lamb when Nicholas pounced at Josiah and snatched his wallet
quickly.

ate less than Ginger but was so much more protective and loyal to its owner.
He was just watching the chaos while cheering on. Sheriff meowed in excitement too.
Zephyr brought out a cigarette slowly and lit it. Nicholas could only watch. It sure was nice when the former had the
mother-in-law’s support…
Fredric was the only one who did not fit in. He was drinking alone, being all moody.
His relationship with Trinity had no breakthrough at all. He was an eloquent lawyer but could not say a word when
he was with her.
After they were tired of fooling around, Josiah and Nicholas came to sit with him on each side. They looked at each
other and instantly understood what was wrong with him.
“What’s wrong?” Josiah smiled. “Trinity is still unwilling to accept you?”
“Didn’t you ask around to find out what she has been up to?” Zephyr turned his face to look at him.
“She’s… shooting somewhere,” Fredric said in an upset manner. “It’s a period piece where they’re shooting in a
desert. She’s been there for over ten days. There’s hardly any signal there. I can’t get hold of her.”
“What else?”
“And…” This was what he was most unwilling to talk about. “Neil is the male lead again.”
“Ha, I like them!” Nicholas laughed intentionally. “One is a director, while the other is the male lead that she always
casts. They’re perfect for each other, a match made in heaven!”
“Did you not go to school?” Josiah continued to mock him. “It’s more accurate to say that they’re made for each
other!”
Nicholas glared at him and shut his mouth.
Fredric looked at Nicholas with anger. “N, aren’t you going to help me?”
“How do you want me to do that?” Nicholas shook his head. “You want me to trouble Neil with my power in
showbiz?”
Nicholas looked serious. “Freddy, if you really love her so much that you can’t let her go, as your bro, I can help
you. But if you’re just upset, or if you like Trinity who doesn’t like you anymore, I advise you to stop. Stop disturbing
her!”
“Hmm, I agree with that!” Josiah sided with Nicholas. “Freddy, why did you do that if you knew this would happen?
You’ve lost a person who was sincere about you. If you want her back, you’ll need to give more!”
Fredric was dizzy from their advice and lifted his eyes to look at Zephyr. He said nothing, his eyes betraying his
complicated feelings.
“Z…”
“I’m afraid I can’t help you,” Zephyr said in a deep voice. “I actually came here today to say goodbye.”
“What?”

They were quite shocked. They looked at each and fell into silence.
“What’s with that face? It’s not that I’m not coming back!” Zephyr chuckled. “Cordelia needs somewhere that’s less
warm now. Chaiseland’s climate is damp and suits her. My grandpa has many things that I need to handle over
there, so I thought I’d seize this opportunity to go.”
Nicholas looked at him for a while and walked to him. “Then… All the best. Come back soon after the child is born.
Let me hold him!
“Also, although I don’t have much power in Chaiseland… If you got yourself into trouble, my lackeys will be there
right away!”
Zephyr patted his shoulder and smiled.
Nicholas was quite cute when he got serious. It was quite moving.
He hesitated and thought he would give him a goodbye hug. At that moment, Nicholas opened his arms wide, his
sincere smile making it hard for one to reject him.
They hugged each other, but the moment they parted, Zephyr felt that he had clearly lost something…
He felt his pocket.
His cigarettes were gone!
“You b*stard!”
Nicholas was laughing happily because of the wallet and cigarettes he had snatched.
