Chapter 11
Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia)
Chapter 11 Marry Him in Return
âThank you, Adam. I'll check it later,â Cordelia said lightly.
âDon't be so polite with me. When will you come to Grant City? Your
brothers all want to see you,â Adam said with a smile.
âI'll get there if I get the chance.â
After chatting with Adam, Cordelia quickly hung up the phone.
It was purely accidental that she was recognized as the adopted
sister of the âFour Influential Young Men in Grant City.â Initially, she just
did Adam a little favor, but he firmly insisted on considering her as his
adopted sister.
As a result, she became an adopted sister of the four men who were
extremely influential in Grant City, though she had never met the other
three.
It was so funny.
Coming out of the bathroom, Cordelia turned on her computer and
checked Eva's individual information.
The light from the computer screen reflected Cordeliaâs delicate
appearance, making her look more serious.
âA life-saving grace?â Cordelia murmured, âWell... it's reasonable for her
to want to marry Elijah in return.â
âSlap-" Cordelia closed her computer, got up, and left the desk...
Two days later, in the evening,
na
colleagues, Cordelia unexpectedly ran into Elijah, who was also
engaging in a social activity.
He was dressed in formal attire, with a cold and serious expression on
his handsome face, clearly conveying a sense of reluctant participation.
Cordelia pretended not to recognize him and lowered her head as she
walked past, but the man grabbed her wrist.
âCordelia, I drank too much. Could you go home with me and make
sobering soup for me?â
âNo.â
Cordelia refused, and at the same time, she tried to withdraw her hand
but failed.
Elijah lowered his head and looked at her intently. âDo you still want a
divorce?â
âMr. Hansen, do you still think I've been joking with you?â Cordelia
frowned at him.
âDivorce is possible, but not right now. I have already told you
the reason.â
Elijah looked at her meaningfully. His implication was self-evident.
âA sobering soup, right?â Cordelia suddenly withdrew her hand. âI'll ask
a delivery person to send it to you.â
returned to the private roof in
Elijah watched her figure disappear, and his eyes dimmed with a hint of
sadness.
He called his assistant over and ordered, âGo to investigate the
individual information of the guest in that private room.â
âYes, Mr. Hansen.â
After dinner, Cordelia went back home.
She really cooked a pot of sobering soup and ordered a delivery service
to send it to Elijahâs villa.
Twenty minutes later, Cordelia received a strange phone call from the
deliveryman she had called just now.
âHello, Madam, I have finished sending your soup to Mr. Hansen, but
he looks not well. He drank too much and even vomited. He is currently
sitting at the doorstep. What should I do?â
Cordelia became restless instantly.
Didn't Elijah have household staff? How did it end up in such a messy
situation?
She hesitated for a while but still decided to go to have a look.
This man had a reckless drinking habit that he drank without regard for
his own safety.
In addition, his stomach was in poor condition, so if something
However, as she drove to the wedding villa and opened the door,
she saw Elijah sitting on the sofa with a woman in his arms.
From her perspective, it looked like both of them were kissing.
Cordelia was stunned.
Probably startled by the sound of her entering, they both turned to

There was a wheelchair next to the sofa, so if the person in Elijahâs arms
was not Eva, who else could it be?
