Chapter 405

Chapter 405 Cordelia Would Live for Herself!

Early the following day, Cordelia was awakened by the loud ringing of

the phone.

"Cordelia, I handed Elijah over to you. Was that how you took care of

him? Leaving him alone in the house?" Ben gritted his teeth as he

spoke.

"What? Didn't Imogen come to you? You seem quite furious,” Cordelia

retorted casually.

Ben growled. "Shut up.”

Cordelia looked out of the window at the gloomy sky with some

irritation.

In fact, after she left yesterday, she also regretted it a little, but at that

time, she had already left the courtyard of Elijah's house.

Returning would have been meaningless, so she decided to leave

directly.

As a result, she had insomnia.

She was in a bad mood now and didn't want to hear Ben's angry rant.

"Elijah is just my ex-husband. When he was sick, I went to his place, fed

him medicine, and helped him with his insomnia. I've done everything I

can," Cordelia said coldly and harshly.

"Great, really great!" Ben became frustrated. "Women are always right!

Cordelia, you're indeed something else!"

Upon hearing the change in his tone from the usual sarcastic and sharp

words to this oddly insincere speech, Cordelia was momentarily

confused.

Then, Ben said, "Aren't you all become arrogant by relying on our care

for you? Cordelia, let me tell you, when Elijah cares about you, you do

appear dazzling and radiant. But once he no longer cares about you,

you're nothing!"

With that, Ben hung up the phone directly.

Cordelia tossed her phone and covered her head with the blanket.

Did she do something wrong?

In a relationship between two people, would everything go smoothly as

long as they loved each other?

Being in a relationship was hard, and loving someone was equally

challenging. Cordelia was genuinely fearful.

But now that she had come this far, she had no regrets.

Even if it was a mistake, she would continue down this path.

Perhaps she would never meet a man more stunning than Elijah in this

lifetime.

Then she would live for herself!

It wasn't a big deal!

Milo had never married in his lifetime, yet his students were worldwide.

As a disciple of Milo, she could do it too!

Cordelia didn't receive any message from Elijah for a whole week.

Nor did she hear any rumors about Elijah.

This person seemed to have left Beilve City and utterly exited her world.

On the other hand, Cordelia continued to work step by step, just as

before. She was even more focused and motivated than before.

The leaders worked tirelessly all day, and the employees naturally

became more diligent. After all, the bonuses for this quarter had just

been distributed, and they were incredibly enticing.

On the night of the charity banquet, Cordelia changed her usual low

profile and wore a sparkling mermaid evening gown.

After getting out of the car, Eason extended his arm to Cordelia

She smiled and naturally linked her arm with his. Together, they walked

up the red carpet.

As soon as they entered, they were met with the curious gazes of many

people.

Especially the women from the elite circles of Beilve City all cast

surprised glances at Cordelia

"Why is it her? Hasn't the Hansen family kicked her out? How did she

return to the Hansen family again?"

"No, she has always been with Elijah."

"Is Eason competing with Elijah for a woman? My God, is there not any

single lady in Beilve City?"

Everyone had already assumed that Eason had returned to the Hansen

family.

"I don't think Cordelia deserves this."

Various voices came from the crowd, but Cordelia turned a deaf ear to

them.

When she married Elijah, these people had already made sarcastic

comments about her, and she had long been used to them.

At this time, there was a commotion at the entrance.

Elijah and Ben appeared at the door at the same time.

However, Elijah’s indifferent gaze swept across Cordelia's face.

He treated her as if she were a stranger, without pausing for even a

second.
