The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 397

Cordelia had been thoroughly worn out by Ronan's sexual antics during her time at home. If he wasn't the CEO of Lumos Enterprises, she'd be convinced he was a sex maniac, with only one thing on his mind.

In his words, "She only comes home once every few months, so she has to make up for lost time."

One night, he even whispered into her ear, "Give me another one."

Without hesitation, Cordelia refused. "Are you fond of children?" she asked.

"I like the ones you give birth to."

"Well, I’m sorry, but you’ll have to find someone else for that."

Upon hearing this, Ronan leaned against the headboard and lit a cigarette. "In that case, I suppose I'll have to find another woman."

"Whatever."

Cordelia booked her flight for Friday, and on Thursday, she made a call to the number that belonged to "Allison” and was written on the small piece of paper.

Unlike Ronan, who didn’t seem to care, Cordelia was curious about her roots. She wanted to know where she came from. She wanted to see what her rumored birth mother, "Allison," looked like.

She wasn't sure if Allison was indeed her birth mother, but she was certain that through Allison, she could find her.

Fortunately, Ronan was at the office that day, leaving Cordelia alone in their bedroom to call Allison.

"Hello, is this Allison?" Cordelia asked cautiously, her heart racing.

"Yes, this is Allison. You must be... Della," came the gentle reply.
