The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 432

Cordelia stepped out of the office door, thinking to herself, “Dustin sure has a lot of faith in Harold, allowing him first dibs on the project.” It was clear that he considered Harold as his star pupil. Dustin was an authority in investment, and with his endorsement, Harold was destined to make it big.

Moreover, according to Sally, there was a basketball game coming up, and Harold was a key player. If she messed up his game because of this matter, she could very well become public enemy number one of Birchwood College's basketball team.

Cordelia decided to wait a while before telling Harold. After all, she was a divorcee with a child, not exactly the most eligible bachelorette.

...

"Miss Alana, Cordelia left the University of Edinburgh for Birchwood College and became an independent director for Empower Operations. Coincidentally, Lumos Enterprises has also partnered with Empower Operations, and they reconnected. However, the grudges of the past few years probably aren't that easy to let go of. Plus, there's a young man at Birchwood College who's been chasing after Cordelia. This young man is the son of the housekeeper from the Ronan family, and he's quite impressive."

Inside the hotel, a man in a black suit reported to Alana.

"Oh? Do Ronan and the young man know each other?"

"They do. The young man is probably hesitant to bring up the matter in front of his family due to the age gap between him and Cordelia. He probably wants to win her over first."

Alana chuckled, "Isn't that a coincidence? I'm not sure if it's meant to be! What about Samantha? Isn't she filming a teen drama these days? Have her film at Birchwood College, show her Harold's picture, and let her trigger Harold to confess his feelings. Make sure she doesn't blurt out anything about Ronan. Only reveal this matter when Harold and Cordelia are getting closer, that would be fun. I bet Ronan hates her for not taking care of their child. He'd be furious knowing another young stud is pursuing her. Also, have Tabitha flaunt their child in front of Cordelia."

"What should Tabitha say?" The man in the black suit asked his boss.

"She doesn't have to say anything. Her mere presence is the biggest provocation to Cordelia. I don't want Cordelia and her child to reunite. I want her to go crazy! Just like her mother!"

"Alright, I'll arrange it as soon as possible."
