Novel My baby’s daddy chapter 2490-I don’t need it. I’m not afraid of the cold.”

” Shirley shook her head and refused his kindness. However, Zacharias ignored

her refusal and directly draped the windbreaker over her. shoulders. “If you

catch a cold, I’ll send you to the Royal Hospital and expose your identity.” He

draped it over her while making a threat. She hesitated for a moment and then

obediently slipped her hands into the sleeves. He turned around and buttoned it

up for her. “This is my windbreaker. Use it for now.”

Having said that, he also wrapped a scarf around her neck. She finally mustered

the courage to refuse him. “I don’t like scarves.”

Zacharias furrowed his brows and asked, “Why?”

“They make it hard to breathe, Shirley replied, as she genuinely did not like

scarves. He had no choice but to remove the scarf and place it on the couch.

Then, he went to get his own windbreaker.

Both of them were wearing black windbreakers. Shirley surprisingly didn’t look

out of place in his oversized windbreaker; instead, it highlighted her delicate

charm.

Zacharias opened the door. The convoy outside was ready. Roy came over in

the cold wind and said, “Mr. Flintstone, the fog is quite thick.”

“Drive slowly,” Zacharias instructed.

“Understood. We’ll be careful.”

The three-car convoy began to break through the fog and entered deeper into

the mountains. Shirley started to tense up because the weather conditions

weren’t very good. Just then, the tires of the vehicle pressed against something

hard, causing the car to tilt slightly.

She instinctively reached out to support Zacharias. However, the hand she

stretched out was firmly held by a large palm.

An electric current surged from his palm into the depths of Shirley’s heart. Her

beautiful eyes widened and at this moment, the car’s body steadied. She

forcefully withdrew her hand from his grip. Fortunately, the bodyguards in front

didn’t notice.

Finally, they arrived under a giant tree. Zacharias looked out the car window at

the tree and there was a slight moisture in the corners of his eyes.

The convoy stopped and he opened the door. Shirley also got out of the car and

looked under the tree. There was a grave. It seemed to have some age and due

to the lingering mist around the giant tree, it appeared lonely and desolate.

Zacharias stood in front of the grave, which was surrounded by mist. His tall

figure seemed cold and lonely.

Something stirred in Shirley’s heart. She had an impulse to go and accompany

him. Just then, Roy handed her candles and a bunch of lilies. “Imogen, go and

accompany Mr. Flintstone.”

Shirley held the basket, carried the bouquet, and walked toward Zacharias.

Zacharias was squatting down, picking up branches and dried leaves before the

grave. She put down the basket and placed the bouquet on the ground. Then,

she went to help him.

He looked up at her and her gaze was comforting. “Let me help you pick them

up.”

“We can do it together,” Zacharias said gently. For more than ten minutes, they

picked up the fallen leaves and the ground looked clean after that. The rain from

last night had washed away the dust on the grave, making it look tidy.

Roy came over with a candle and lighter.

Shirley handed the flowers to Zacharias before asking him to place them in front

of the grave. He turned to her. “You do it.”

She hesitated for a moment as it didn’t seem appropriate. However, she couldn’t

refuse at that moment when she saw that he didn’t take the flowers. She bowed

three times in front of the grave before placing the flowers in front of the

tombstone..

Zacharias squatted down and started to light the candle. He used old-fashioned

matches, but the wind was too strong, blowing it out several times. Shirley

immediately came over and made a wind-blocking motion, allowing him to light

the fire.

The fire started and Zacharias seemed lost in thought while holding the candle.

He didn’t pull it away even when his hand was almost burnt by the flames.

Shirley quickly reached out and grabbed his hand to check if he had been

burned.

Zacharias returned to his senses and looked up at her. She took the initiative to

hold his hand and
