The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 396

Olen and Amanda were just in their bedroom.

Olen was tucked away in the corner and tried to avoid meeting Cordelia. Amanda was constantly trying to convince him that it was better to reconcile with Cordelia.

"But what I've done to her family is not a grudge. It's a sin!" At this moment, Olen was very clear-headed.

"But you did that when you were not in your right mind. Cordelia will forgive you. Besides, hasn't Ronan covered it up for you? You need to trust Ronan and not let him down," Amanda said while stroking Olen's chest. "Shelley is gone now, stop overthinking this, okay?"

Olen sorted out his messy thoughts for a while before he finally stepped out. Seeing Amanda and Olen come out, Cordelia's hand trembled slightly, but she still called out, "Amanda," and then continued eating. As for why she didn’t greet Olen, everyone understood, and no one blamed her.

The food that was once delicious suddenly tasted bland to Cordelia. After forcing down a few bites, she went upstairs. She wanted to change her clothes, but she couldn't find anything. It was as if there was no trace of her ever living here.

"Are you upset again?" Ronan went upstairs and asked Cordelia.

"Where are my clothes?" She asked Ronan.

"Burnt them."

"Burnt?" Cordelia asked Ronan with a frown.

But Cordelia didn't explode. She had just come back and didn't want to start a fight with Ronan right away. She could imagine his anger, as she had defiantly gone abroad against his wishes.

"So, what should I wear?" Cordelia asked him.

She was in a rush when she came back and didn't pack many clothes, including the scarf he bought for her, which she loved. She didn't bring it back and left it in the States.

"You?" Ronan looked her up and down with bad intent. "You look best with nothing on. This time, leave me a few dozen nude photos."

"Get lost!" Cordelia said.

Ronan sat on the sofa, seemingly feeling aroused by Cordelia's words.

Cordelia didn't share his good mood. She had just seen Olen, and Alana had mentioned "Allison," it all made Cordelia feel unsettled.
