The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 377

While there was no emotion in the Messenger messages Cordelia sent to Brenda and Tristi, she was certainly in a foul mood.

She didn't want Ronan to know she had cried and gotten sick over him. After all, he seemed to care so little about her and was already rolling in the hay with someone else barely a month after her departure. If she cried over him, wouldn't that make her appear too emotionally invested, or too hung up on him?

Thankfully, she was overseas, and Ronan remained blissfully ignorant of her thoughts and feelings.

If Ronan's "gift" to Cordelia after a month of separation was sleeping with someone else, wasn’t it only right for Cordelia to reciprocate with a gift of her own?

Cordelia was distracted by thoughts of Ronan during class the next day and found it hard to keep up with the already challenging material.

The task set by the professor was to write an essay on the Capital Asset Pricing Model, a topic filled with complex terminology.

She snapped a picture of the chalkboard filled with these terms and their explanations. She made a collage for a Facebook post with notes from her previous readings and a caption stating her determination to pull an all-nighter to complete the essay.

Cordelia wasn't one to frequently post on Facebook.

The academic nature of this post was palpable, showcasing her diligence and dedication towards her studies. The post garnered a plethora of likes.

These likes were not out of courtesy for Ronan, but genuine admiration. After all, in this day and age, those who buried their heads in academia were few and far between. Cordelia's dedication, especially as a woman and a mother returning to academia, was truly inspiring.

Emerson liked her post and left a comment, filled with thumbs-up emojis and a sincere word of admiration.
