The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 288

Furthermore, Ronan just mentioned to Emerson that Cordelia was already six months along. It was clear he was concerned for Cordelia and didn't want her working so hard at this stage in her pregnancy.

Cordelia recalled a message she received a few days ago from Brenda. She had mentioned that PrimeNumbers Accounting was facing a downturn due to the impact of First Enterprises. First Enterprises, now renamed Elite Accounting Firm by Kent, was failing to secure contracts and was struggling to pay its employees.

[Brenda, do you think Marian is committing career suicide? If you were there, she'd at least have a meal ticket. She doesn't have a clue and has upset you.] Brenda had written to Cordelia in a message.

But the person Marian truly upset was Ronan. He was the one who taught Marian a lesson on behalf of Cordelia. Thinking about it, Cordelia couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy.

Ronan's cell phone rang.

"Tonight? Where? Night Rave? Sounds good." Ronan ended the call.

Hearing Night Rave, Cordelia frowned slightly and gazed out the window. Thunder rumbled in the distance. It was going to rain soon.

Ronan saw her expression through the rearview mirror. "I'm heading to the nightclub tonight. I'll drop you home first." Ronan said.

"Whatever." Cordelia replied, leaning back and closed her eyes to rest. Perhaps influenced by what Ronan said earlier about her not being that important, Cordelia didn't say anything more.

Ronan didn't get out of the car. With the impending rain, he drove directly into the garage, and asked Janice to escort Cordelia upstairs. He then left.

Janice had already prepared dinner, including a dish of beef stew with potatoes, fish, and several plates of green vegetables.

"Where did Mr. Evans go?" Janice asked Cordelia.

"He went to the nightclub." Cordelia casually replied while eating.

"A nightclub?" Janice frowned, "What's he doing there?"

"I don't know." Cordelia said.
