Journey Of Me And My Seven Sisters

hapter 134 A Husband Of Equal Status
Feeling the weight of the past and the pain of abandonment, Cordelia contemplated her options. Twenty–five years they
abandoned her, and she didn’t feel obligated to acknowledge them as her parents.
She wasn’t that generous.
A mere apology would not suffice to make up for the pain and abandonment she had endured for twenty–five years.
As Cordelia listened to Richard and Lydia’s explanation, her heart began to soften. They had thought she was dead and
entrusted her b*dy to a priest for a proper burial. The revelation shattered the resentment that had held a grip on her for so long.
Cordelia realized that their actions had stemmed from a tragic misunderstanding, and they, too, had endured immense suffering
in their own way.
The three of them came together in a family hug and burst into tears.
As Emrys, Caylie, and Yelena observed the unfolding reunion between Cordelia and her parents, a mixture of emotions surged
within them.
They couldn’t help but feel genuine happiness for Cordelia upon witnessing her reconciliation with her long–lost family. However,
their own past as orphans from the Sunshine Children’s Home cast a shadow over their hearts.
Emrys didn’t know how to express his feelings.
With an extensive network of the Seventy–two Shadow Forces under his command, with two–thirds of their influence spanning
across international borders and only one–third focused within Chanaea, it should pose no difficulty for him to uncover the

backgrounds of himself and the girls.
Nevertheless, prior to his departure from the monastery half a decade ago, the wise old friar had advised Emrys to allow destiny
to unfold naturally when he sought information about his true identity.
He was telling Emrys not to delve into his own background as the answers would be revealed in due time.
Perhaps it wasn’t a coincidence that the girls and he were sent to Sunshine Children’s Home. Someone had orchestrated this
arrangement deliberately, with the intention of fostering a deep bond between Emrys and the girls.
Emrys had formed this speculation based on recent events and the words of the old friar.
That thought terrified him.
Pondering over the intricate scheme unfolding before him, Emrys couldn’t shake off his curiosity about the involvement of the old
friar in this grand design. How did the friar fit into the equation, and what connection did he have with Skybright, the name that
Richard and Lydia had mentioned earlier?
“You are Emrys Lund, right?”

Chapter 134 A Husband of Equal Status
Emrys was deep in thought when Richard’s voice pulled him out of his reverie. “Can we talk somewhere else?”
Hearing that. Emrys bobbed his head.

Both men stepped out of the mansion, seeking privacy for their conversation. Richard observed Emrys in silence for a moment
before finally speaking up. “First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt appreciation for looking after Cordelia. If there’s
anything you need or any requests you have, please don’t hesitate to inform me. The Youngblood family is prepared to fulfill any
reasonable demand within our means.”
“Mr. Youngblood, I actually-”
“Hush now, and let me finish speaking.”
As Emrys was preparing to explain that he was simply fulfilling his duty in looking after Cordelia, Richard cut him short. At once,
a hint of displeasure appeared in Emrys‘ gaze.
Richard Youngblood is quite assertive, huh?
After a brief pause, Richard resumed speaking, “I don’t want to see you pestering Cordelia anymore. Having neglected her for
the past twenty–five years, it is our responsibility to bring her back into the embrace of the Youngblood family and provide her
with proper care. Additionally, I will ensure she is matched with a husband of equal status. Emrys, I trust you comprehend the
implications behind my
words.”
With that, Richard fixed Emrys with a warning look. His words were clearly a veiled threat.
To him, Emrys and Cordelia’s relationship wasn’t that simple. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have stepped out of the hotel that day
with her intimately hugging his arm.
Besides, Cordelia seemed lightheaded when Emrys entered the hotel with her in his arms that day. Richard refused to believe
that Emrys was gentlemanly enough not to take advantage of her in the hotel room.
He wasn’t going to take offense over that matter anymore as long as Emrys stopped pestering Cordelia
in the future.
A tense silence filled the air.
A brief pause later, Emrys broke the silence with a soft chuckle. “Richard, I was polite enough to address you as ‘Mr.
Youngblood‘ as you’re Delia’s father. Were it not for that, I must warn you that there would have been grave consequences for

treating me in such a manner.”
