Love or Die: CEO’ s Daily Dose of Swoon (Cordelia) novel Chapter 259

Cordelia barely paid attention to his words, offering only a noncommittal "oh" in response.

After breezing through breakfast, caught up in the world of algebra, Cordelia stood up, grabbed her backpack, and headed out. At the school gates, she ran into Yates and handed him the problems she'd prepared for him the night before. "You don't pay attention in class anyway, so you might as well spend the morning working on these. We'll review them over lunch, and I'll find some time in the afternoon to go over the ones you struggle with."

Yates took the papers, nodding in agreement.

"Don't guess the answers if you don't know them. Leave them blank," Cordelia advised before they parted ways to their respective classrooms.

With math problems on her mind even during class, Cordelia sneakily substituted a math textbook cover onto a novel from the "Little Parrot" series and read it openly as if she were following along with the literature class.

Come lunchtime, she and Yates headed to the cafeteria together, and the "Flame Union" gang took seats next to her, deterring any other students from approaching.

Whispers circulated among those who'd heard rumors from home. "Is she really distancing herself from that pretty boy, getting involved with the Griffin family? Looks like the Delaney family is scared of Bill now!"

Cordelia chose to ignore the murmurs.

In the afternoon, after reviewing the half-completed problems Yates returned, Cordelia felt a headache coming on.

"Little Flame's" foundation was even worse than "Little Parrot's"!

After an art exam, "Little Parrot" had a real shot at getting into the Ontoky City Film and Animation Academy, but "Little Flame's" basics...

With only half a year left, it seemed nearly impossible.

Still, as long as "Little Flame" was willing to try, she wouldn't give up on him.

At "Midnight Scent," Cordelia, lost in her problems after breakfast, ignored Everard as usual, something he'd grown accustomed to.

Despite spending over a month together in the EW Club, their interactions were minimal, both preoccupied with their own activities.

Bill Robinson cleaned up the table while Everard opened his social media to check in on a fan page, liking posts about him and Cordelia.

Bill caught a glimpse of Everard's phone and saw the nickname he'd been given: "Study Buff."

Bill Robinson: "..."

Could you be any more shameless?

As Everard idly scrolled through posts, the door opened, and in walked Sanderson.

Bill, having already familiarized himself with Greenmeadow's social dynamics, was quick to greet warmly, "Mr. Delaney, please come in!"
