Chapter 27

Chapter 27 With Pleasure

Cordelia looked out the window coldly. This man was going to leave

her on the highway!

She unbuckled her seat belt without hesitation. “With pleasure!”

Slamming the car door, Cordelia, who had always been polite. and

gentle, gave him an impolite gesture.

“What a nut case!” She cursed silently.

Elijah drove away quickly.

Standing in the middle of the highway, Cordelia couldn't help but

shudder in the strong gust.

But she was extremely sober and calm.

She called Imogen and asked her to pick her up.

Afterward, she just looked at the cars whizzing by with a calm. face.

Imogen arrived forty minutes later.

Cordelia got in the car but still couldn't shake off the coldness, no

matter how warm it was inside.

“Cordelia, what are you doing here?”

Cordelia looked out the window in embarrassment. “Elijah left

Fuck! How could he do this?” Imogen was stunned. How could Elijah be

so mean to Cordelia?

Sure enough, men were all bad!

Cordelia said calmly, “Elijah is not a good man. I shouldn't have fallen

for him in the first place.”

Imogen glanced at Cordelia worriedly and comforted her.

“We've all been young once. Don't be so hard on yourself.”

She also made a mistake by falling in love with that bastard Ben back

then.

Cordelia didn't reply. Imogen asked again, “What are you going to do

next?”

“I will divorce him. If he disagrees with me, I'll seek help from his

grandfather.”

Indeed, Elijah’s grandfather had been upset with Cordelia for a long

time because she couldn't get pregnant.

“You must think it through. In that case, you will definitely alarm your

family, and then it will become a matter of two families, not just you

two.”

Imogen knew a little about Cordelia’s family, who had taken advantage

of Cordelia for years.

“I know. I'll think about it.” Cordelia closed her eyes, feeling at

little tired.

Cordelia had a fever after she returned home.

She heard the phone ringing, but it was on the coffee table in the living

room, and she didn’t want to get it.

It finally stopped ringing. Perhaps the battery was flat.

When Cordelia was sleeping, she felt a cold hand touching her

forehead.

She instinctively took the hand.

She held it tightly when she sensed the person was trying to withdraw

the hand.

Later, she simply put the hand in her arms while murmuring something

in her mouth.

Suddenly, Cordelia felt something cool on her lips. Someone was

kissing her, and she instinctively kissed back.

Gradually, she felt a cool body pressing against her. It felt so good...

Cordelia felt better the next morning when she woke up, but she still

took a day off.

Recalling the dream last night, she couldn't help but blush.

She didn't know why she dreamed of being with Elijah...

Anyway, it was a wild night, making her sweat all

over.

She didn't even dare to recall the details of the dream. That would only

make her blush

Suddenly, her phone rang, and it was Imogen.

Cordelia picked up her phone from the nightstand and answered the

call, “Oh, Cordelia. I'm glad you answered my call finally. I've been

trying to reach you all night last night.”

“I took antipyretics last night, so I slept carly. I'm sorry,” Cordelia said

apologetically.

Imogen said meaningfully, “I see.”

Cordelia felt she was being weird but didn’t ask.

At this time, the doorbell rang.

Cordelia hung up the phone in a hurry and went to open the door. She

was surprised to see Elijah’s face through the peephole.

What was he doing here in the early morning?
