Chapter 45
Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia)
Chapter 45 Are You Sure?
After a long time, Eva seemed angry and said, âOkay, then I won't
bother you!â After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone.
Elijah looked at Cordelia quietly and raised his eyebrows slightly. âHave
I taken off all your
clothes?â
Cordelia turned over and ignored him.
Moving his eyes, Elijah stopped asking, turned off the light, and fell
asleep.
In the middle of the night, Elijahâs phone rang again, and it was a
strange female voice.
âMr. Hansen, Eva took it to heart and committed suicide, shedding
much blood. Come here quickly...â
Cordelia heard Elijah get up and leave immediately. And the sound of a
car engine came from outside not long after.
At this moment, Cordelia admired Eva. She was hard on herself!
The following day, Elijah came back.
Cordelia had just had breakfast and was about to go to work. Seeing
the manâs gloomy face, she asked, âIs Eva okay?"
âDo you want her to be okay?" Elijah didn't answer but asked
Cordelia was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left. âSuit
yourself.â
Elijah pulled her back. âCordelia, Eva has been in a wheelchair all year
round and cannot walk. Her psychological problems are already serious,
and she cannot stand the stimulation.â
âYou mean it is my fault for her suicide?â Cordelia asked coldly.
âI'm just reminding you.â Elijah was a little tired.
Cordelia originally planned to leave but wanted to talk to Elijah
instead.
âElijah, 1 don't care what kind of fetters between you. It is your business.
If you worry about her, you can divorce me and marry her home. And
how you love her is your business. Just let me go, okay?â
Elijahâs expression suddenly changed as he heard she had brought up
divorce again. âCordelia, here we go again. Do you think that divorce is
just a joke? Will we divorce when you say divorce? Who are you
thinking about in such a hurry to get a divorce?â
in the middle of the night because of a phone call, right? Elijah, you are
unreasonable!â
Suddenly, Elijah pulled her wrist, vigorously clasped her into his arms,
and hugged her tightly.
Rather than hugging her, it was more like restraining her and
preventing her from running away.
Cordelia heard the rapid breathing and heartbeat of the manâs chest.
And this time, both of them.
were very angry.
âCordelia, I didn't come back to quarrel with you,â Elijahâs tone
softened, and he explained.
Cordelia had already calmed down.
âThere is a reception tonight, and you can go with me, huh?â Elijah said
kindly.
Cordelia was a little surprised and looked up at him. âAre you sure? Are
you afraid that I will embarrass you?â
Cordelia remembered that in the past, Lamia minded that she grew up
in the countryside and acted likes she was not presentable. Of course,
Elijah didn't refute it and acquiesced
âMy grandma chose you as my wife, so you must be excellent. Besides,
will you embarrass yourself?â Elijah asked.
Cordelia lowered her head, putting away the flashing emotions.
This man seemed to have a different attitude towards her since he
discovered she was Evie.
If she was still the unknown Cordelia from before, would he take the
initiative to show her to the public?
"So, you want me to accompany you as Mrs. Hansen?â Cordelia asked
knowingly.
âOtherwise?â Elijah frowned.
âOh... it is nothing. Donât worry, I won't embarrass you.â
After finishing speaking, Cordelia was as flexible as a fish and fled from
Elijahâs embrace instantly.
When he returned to his senses, his arms were already empty.
That soft woman who always carried a comfortable fragrance had long
since disappeared.
Elijah looked towards the door, and his eyes gradually deepened.
