Chapter 416 The Wonders of Fate

In the end, Cordelia's ranking was pushed to the top by Elijah’'s move.

He then contacted the administrator and froze the post, leaving it

forever at this moment.

"Your desire for victory is truly...” Cordelia laughed helplessly.

Even with her quick wit, she couldn't find the words to describe him at

that moment.

Elijah smiled, "Back then, I didn't know you, nor did I know about this.

But now that I know, I cannot let you be left behind.”

Cordelia smiled and shook her head, amused by his rare childishness.

"Moreover..." Elijah suddenly lifted her chin and earnestly examined her

face. "This is how it should be. You deserve the title."

Cordelia looked at Elijah in a daze. She was confused

At this moment, they seemed to have returned to their school days,

sitting in the piano room as if she had finally won over the crush in her

dreams.

"Elijah..."

Cordelia's nose tingled, feeling like she might cry.

If all of this could happen at the right time, how wonderful would it be?

But now, she was no longer the naive girl who secretly loved him.

"Cordelia, I understand. We missed our purest years, but that doesn't

hinder what we are now. The beauty of memories will only make us

marvel at the wonders of fate!"

Elijah gently caressed her delicate and soft face. He could not resist his

love for her yet was afraid to exert too much force.

"You're right.” Cordelia loved hearing his words and was immersed in

the beautiful atmosphere of this moment.

No matter how tumultuous their real lives may be, their feelings for

each other were sincere at this moment.

Elijah slowly leaned in, tentatively, and carefully kissed her, starting with

a gentle touch and gradually deepening it.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that Cordelia was very compliant

and even responded to him.

Their kisses were not passionate, more like the tentative kisses, filled

with youthful unfamiliarity.

Cordelia felt he had been creating an atmosphere all night to win her

heart again.

She had to admit that she really liked it and was even more looking

forward to what he would do next.

To her surprise, once again, he stopped just at the right moment and

did not make any excessive demands.

Later, Cordelia went back to her room to rest.

Elijah walked with her to the room and said, "I'll see you off tomorrow

morning.”

"Well, if you can't get up, forget it. I'll go back by myself."

Cordelia planned to go back to Grant City tomorrow and then go

abroad with Imogen for childbirth.

However, except for Milo, she didn't tell anyone about her plan, not

even the studio. She planned to inform them afterward

"Okay", Elijah didn't insist.

The bedroom door slowly closed, and a smile appeared on Elijah's face.

It was obvious that he was satisfied with tonight's companionship.

How long had it been since he had such a warm time with Cordelia? He

missed it so much that he hesitated to let her go to sleep just now.

However, thinking this was a good start, Elijah didn't continue to pester

her not to spoil things.

Every time he regained his spirit and pursued Cordelia again, it was a

completely new experience for him.

He enjoyed the process of getting closer to her slowly, never giving up.
