Chapter 29
Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia)
Chapter 29 I'll Kill You
âYou were on fire last night and kept asking me to give you good
And you kept saying you wanted a baby.â
Elijah smiled and gently pinched her soft baby face.
Cordeliaâs body couldnt help trembling slightly. She asked Elijah
vigilantly, âWhy did you come to me last night?â
âYour friend called me. She said she couldnt reach you and was afraid
that you might hurt yourself,â Elijah said calmly.
Cordelia suddenly realized that Imogen must have informed him
So Elijah came to check on her because he felt bad about abandoning
her on the highway and worried that she could hurt herself.
She didnât know what to say to him.
The truth was Cordelia was a little moved by Elijahâs gesture.
But she was no longer the girl who used to love him no matter what.
She knew men were good at pretending to be nice. It was all fake.
Elijah just wanted to sleep with her!
suddenly become interested in her?
Therefore, Cordelia pushed away Elijahâs hand and said solemnly, âMr.
Hansen, a deal is a deal. I just need you to spare an hour to divorce me.
It shouldn't be hard. Why canât you agree?â
Cordelia didn't understand. She even promised that she would take
nothing from him. Why didn't he sign the divorce paper?
Elijahâs look changed immediately. âI spared you plenty of time and
gave you many opportunities, but you refused them.â
Cordelia was furious, but she had nothing to say.
âNow, I'll give you another chance. Do you want to go back with. me?â
Elijah said coldly and domineeringly.
But Cordelia was a stubborn woman. She said word by word, âNo. I do
not.â
The man seemed to have lost his patience. He turned around and left
without looking back.
Looking at his back, Cordelia felt like someone had stabbed her heart
again. She couldnât help covering her chest in pain and slowly sat on
the ground...
Cordelia rested for three days.
But she was in no peace during the time.
What happened that day probably angered Elijah. As a result, Cordeliaâs
family suffered.
Her mother, Janice, kept pestering her like crazy.
She even went to Cordeliaâs studio while Cordelia was resting at home.
After receiving a call from an employee, Cordelia immediately took a
taxi to the studio.
Janice was downstairs. Looking at Cordelia arrogantly, she said coldly,
âCordelia, you are a grown-up now. You should know how to work on
your marriage with Elijah. What did you do to make him end his
partnership with Kevin?â
Cordelia looked at Janice coldly but remained silent.
âLet's go to Elijahâs company now and apologize to him!â Janice said as
she reached out to pull Cordelia.
Cordelia took a step back, avoiding Janice's hand. âI won't go.â
Janice was enraged. She raised her hand to hit Cordelia.
But Cordelia saw that coming. She quickly raised her hand and caught
Janice's wrist instead.
Janice was stunned.
âMrs. Janice Deleon, don't you dare to boss me around! I'm an
independent woman!â
âIf Kevin is competent, he will turn things over and continue his
business. If he's not, he should change his career as soon as possible. I
am just his stepdaughter, and I have no obligation to support the entire
Deleon family!â
Janice suddenly screamed, âHow dare you! I'll kill you today!â
As she spoke, she rushed towards Cordelia..
