Hannah scrambled up from the ground instantly and glared at Zephyr.

"Z-Zephyr Hamerton! How dare you speak to your aunt like this!?"

"How dare you speak to my son like this!?" Janine's stern voice intimidated everyone.

Hannah shrank back and poked Noah discreetly for him to kick up another fuss.

Noah yelled recklessly, "Janine, you're being unreasonable! What... What has Hannah done wrong? Why did you send people to follow her!?

"She has my child! D-Do you hate her so much? Do you hate me too!?"

Janine grimaced. She wanted to lash out several times but held back.

Once she thought of how her little brother had saved her without a care for his own safety when they were younger, she caved. No matter how big her temper was, she could not let it out as guilt devoured her whole.

Zephyr went up to pat her shoulders for her to step back.

He would unleash the temper his mother was unable to lash out. Growing up, he had never seen his mother so weak. Besides, this was not a temper. Tolerating Noah regardless was not being good to him—it was pushing him into a deeper abyss. They might as well remove a cancerous tumor like Hannah right now.

Zephyr was calm as he slapped a stack of photos on the table.

"Aunt Hannah, you said you're followed." He smirked. "You took photos, and I did too. That's right. I admit that I sent those people but look properly, Aunt Hannah. See what my men have taken!" Hannah browsed the photos in puzzlement, only to shake more violently the more she looked.

"Th-this is..."

"It's Ava." Zephyr's voice was cold. "You wouldn't not recognize your own daughter, right?"

Hannah looked up, face pale and gaze horrified.

Ava was not the only one in the photos-there was also Chuck!

Hannah's heart thumped. She felt like all her blood had suddenly rushed up to her head. She felt dizzy and lost.

How did Ava end up with Chuck?

One was her daughter, and the other was her lover, yet the two of them actually... Hannah was humiliated but could only suppress it in front of so many people.

There was a flash in Zephyr's eyes as he held Cordelia's hand and smiled at her.

Cordelia spoke softly. "Aunt Hannah, don't blame Zephyr... It's because of me.

"I previously thought there was something off with Ava and told Zephyr about it. That's why he sent people to follow her. Aunt Hannah, I'm just worried about something happening to her.

"I wonder who this Mr. Cole is?" Cordelia's gaze was pure. "He doesn't look young, and Ava looks close to him. What if... What if she's being tricked?"

"You..." Hannah was so furious that she would cough blood.

The cryptic smirk Cordelia wore was exactly the same as Zephyr's. When they stood together, their presences were overbearing as well. It made one dare not act out of line.

The party was silent. Everyone exchanged a look. They were all clever, understanding what Cordelia implied without a word.

Noah was the only one kept in the dark as he looked around.

"Sweetheart, who's Mr. Cole? Why's our Ava so close to him? He's not her boyfriend, is he?"

"Shut up!" Hannah glared at him.

Janine was displeased and pulled Noah behind her.

"Hannah Johnson, why are you throwing a tantrum at my brother? You really think you're the queen just because you're pregnant?"
