Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon (Cordelia and Sanderson) novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 

Cordelia eyed Everard with a mixture of curiosity and caution

His eyes betrayed no hint of fear, but his face was a shade paler than usual, perhaps from fright

Whether he was faking it or genuinely scared, she couldn’t deny her boyfriend’s reasonable request. But she did have one card up her sleeve

With a languid voice, she offered, I’ll just grab your breakfast then.” 

That would keep Cordelia at a safer distance from Everard

As Cordelia turned to leave, Everard rose to his feet and followed closely behind her, his voice steady, With you here, I’m not scared at all.” 

Calvert, who had been sitting silently at the table like a church mouse, was speechless. Back in the day, when their group huddled together, they used to wonder if there was anything Everard couldn’t do. They concluded that Everard might only be helpless at dating

Now it seemed like the big man could handle even that with flair

In his first love, Everard was already pulling off moves so suave that surprised Calvert. He resolved to demand a mental health allowancewhen he got back for being forcefed this daily dose of romantic display. This was just inhumane 

They continued their breakfast in silence

Cordelia’s phone buzzed

She glanced at it and saw a text from Actorman, Lia, I got the bag! Thanks a bunch! How much do I owe you? Send over your bank details and I’ll transfer the cash” 

She had shipped off the bag to Bland after acquiring it last week, but it was only now, seeing his message, that she remembered she hadn’t settled up with Everard 

How much for the bag?she inquired

Everard swallowed his mouthful of pancakes and replied, 200 

Cordelia texted back the details

LearnLover replied, Two hundred. Bank account is XXX

Actorman continued, Got it, Lia. The money’s on its way” 

Cordelia didn’t give it another thought and went back to her meal

After they finished, she pulled out her wallet and laid three hundreddollar bills on the table, The extra hundred’s for breakfast

Calvert was at a loss for words 

He silently choked on his pancake as he swallowed the fact that this bag was actually worth 200 thousand 

In their group chat “Who exactly is this girl?, a heated discussion was unfolded 

Bland sent a message, Lia’s amazing, no clue where she gets this bag without markup. She sold it to me at the original price

Limited edition bags were collectibles and could be sold for a premium since they were in short supply 

Stanton added, Lia’s family must be loaded, not caring about this chump change. I sent her my sheet music. yesterday, and she pinpointed three issues right away.” 

Bland continued. Designer bags are accessible with Cordelia 

Chapter 56 

Stanton said. That’s also the case for the finest tunes

Others thought they were loval pursuers of Cordelia 

Someone tagged Frankie, asking. How’s this girl with math

Frankie answered, Still bet she can’t do it. But probably she doesn’t even realize the’s cracked Batra’s Conjecture. I’ve lost hope, not everyone who joins us is a jack of all trades like the boss, night 

The rest offered comfort. She’s just a young girl. Don’t set your standards too high 

After lunch, Cordelia headed to school

At the school gates, a black Rolls Royce was parked, and the driver respectfully opened the rear door Yates, sporting a shock of red hair, stepped out in his uniform, eyes glued to his phone 

His presence exuded an untamed aura that kept his peers at a safe distance, with no one daring to come. within several meters of him

A fellow student, not noticing Yates, greeted him only when they were too close to ignore each other. Hey

Yates 

The young man, clearly annoyed, looked up with fiery eyes that nearly buckled the other’s knees

Yates was about to move on when someone tapped his shoulder, pushing him to the brink of rage

Who the hell is bothering meYates was about to lash out but turned to see a pair of clear and seemingly misty eyes staring back at him 

Cordelia was expressionless, just looking at him

Yates froze, then reluctantly muttered, Boss Cordelia.” 

Cordelia indifferently replied Yatesgreet

The lone wolf that was Yates now meekly followed her into the school, glancing back only to notice how her backpack sagged under its weight, likely heavy, while his backpack was left in the classroom, untouched

Pondering his next move, he overheard her curious voice, What were you looking at just now?” 

Yates instinctively locked his phone and pocketed it, Nothing much.” 

After a brief glance at her, he prepared for further questions that might require deflection

Instead, she simply acknowledged and didn’t pursue the conversation further

Yates was at a loss for words

They parted ways on the third floor, with Yates quickly ascending to the top floor and his classroom

Class 8 was known for the worst academic performance in the school, and four members of the Flame Union were among them

Upon his arrival, Flame No. 1 rushed over, Bro Yates!” 

With a noncommittal grunt, Yates took his seat and checked his phone again. The screen displayed voting. results for the National Math League’s top contender
