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 cover in
the cold wind and said, “Mr. Flintstone, the fog is quite thick.”
“Drive slowly,” Zacharias instructed.
“Understood. We'll be careful.”

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.

looked under the tree. There was a grave. It seemed to have sage and due
to the lingering mist around the giant tree, it appeared lonely and desolate.

figure seemed cold and lonely.

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. “Lethelp 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 cover 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 cover and made a wind-blocking motion, allowing him to light
the fire.
