The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 363

At the airport, Taylor was waiting for Cordelia. They had planned this meeting in advance. Taylor had a paper offer to hand over to Cordelia. Spotting Cordelia getting off the plane, Taylor waved. "Cordelia."

Cordelia looked up and returned her greeting.

"What's your plan for this visit, Cordelia?" Taylor, who had been living and working in the States for a few years now, asked as she started her car.

"I might be here for a while, considering my master's degree program lasts three years."

As Cordelia was talking, she sent a message to "hubby" via Messenger. [Arrived safely.]

She was careful not to say too much, fearing that the men in black suits would be monitoring her phone. If they found out her relationship with Ronan hadn't actually ended, it could put Ronan and their son in danger.

Ronan didn't respond.

"My lease is up, and I found a nice place. How about we share it? What do you think?" Taylor asked Cordelia.

"Sure."

"So, should we go see the place now?"

"Okay."

Even though they were going to see the apartment, Cordelia's mind wasn't really on it. She kept checking her phone, curious about Ronan's reaction to her sudden departure overseas. But he still hadn't replied. Cordelia started to feel uneasy.

The new apartment was close to UC Davis. Taylor worked in media and also offered part-time application writing services to international students. The location was convenient for both of them.
