Chapter 126 Pregnant Women Easily Get Emotional

The more Cordelia got to know Elijah, the more she realized that he

could sometimes be quite childish.

Looking back at the moment she first met Elijah, the fluttering heart

and love at first sight feelings, she couldn't help but feel a sense of

nostalgia.

It turned out that the feelings one had for strangers and those for

acquaintances were indeed different.

The filter through which Cordelia viewed Elijah had shattered into

countless pieces

The notion of an unapproachable man was merely an illusion created

by his imposing expression

Elijah was just a bit of a kid at heart in their daily life.

Before long, Cordelia saw Elijah walking toward her with a cold

expression from a distance.

The bodyguards standing nearby tactfully retreated, leaving ample

space for the two of them.

"You didn't even look for me after I left for a long time. Is Ivan so good-

looking?" Elijah’s forehead wrinkled tightly, displaying a displeased

expression on his face. It seemed he was not happy and wanted

Cordelia comfort him.

Cordelia glanced at him nonchalantly and asked, "Why did you buy

bags for Mae and Eva?"

Even though she had a better bag, she still held a grudge over this

matter and decided to let it out.

Elijah was taken aback. "How did you know about that?"

"With you being so generous, giving bags worth hundreds of

thousands of dollars like they were wholesale goods, why do you look

surprised when you know I've heard about it?" Cordelia folded her arms

and looked at him like a teacher questioning a student.

"Eva spilled cola all over Mae at the store today. They ended up in a

physical altercation, and I was short on time, so I spent money to

resolve the situation.” Elijah was clearly irritated and impatient when he

recounted the incident.

Cordelia understood. Elijah had used the money to pacify Eva and Mae,

hoping they would behave.

But...

Cordelia lowered her head to look at her bag. It seemed like the same

logic applied.

Elijah spent money to make her happy. If she was happy, the baby

could feel it.

Everything was for the baby!

Cordelia suddenly felt that she had become much more enlightened.

Maybe she had been too naive, letting herself overthink all the time.

After three years of marriage, she should not cling to unrealistic

fantasies.

"Don't overthink. I rushed home to be with you precisely because I

worried about your overthinking. After all, people say pregnant women

easily get emotional.”

Elijah looked at Cordelia seriously as if he valued her a lot.

Cordelia pursed her lips. "See? You can also speak like a human.”

Elijah was stunned. "Then what are you talking about?"

Cordelia burst into laughter.

Her laughter was charming. Her eyebrows and eyes curved, and her lips

formed a gentle smile that showcased her feminine allure.

Due to morning sickness, she had been quite emotional recently and

lost some weight.

However, it didn't affect her figure, which was still alluring with its

curves and proportions.

As Elijah looked at the graceful woman before him, his anger seemed to

dissipate completely.

He held Cordelia’s arm, pulled her closer into his embrace, and held her

and their baby tightly against his chest, feeling a deep sense of

contentment.

"Sorry. It seems like I've arrived at an inconvenient time!"

Imogen walked over smiling, followed by tonight's male lead, Ivan.

Elijah released Cordelia and instead held her by the waist, tightly

embracing her as if afraid she might run away.

"Cora, when can we collaborate? I'm looking forward to dancing with

you." Ivan boldly and straightforwardly extended an invitation.

"Ivan, it might not be possible for a while,” Cordelia smiled and openly

admitted, "I'm pregnant.”

"Really?" Ivan looked at Cordelia in astonishment. "You're so young, and

yet... Well, it's a pity."

As the words left his mouth, Ivan realized he had misspoken and

immediately stopped himself.
