Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia) novel Chapter 159

"My mother said that if I marry Jacob, she will give me half of her family's shares as a gift. I won't have to work in the future..." Lamia laughed loudly.

Cordelia was surprised, and she also felt happy for Lamia's vigor and positivity.

At this time, not far away, Elijah's cold voice sounded. "If you can't change your laughter, you will never be able to marry into the Taylor family."

Cordelia and Lamia turned their heads together and found that Elijah was standing not far behind them. Perhaps he had been listening to their conversation for a long time.

"Elijah." Cordelia reached out to Elijah.

Elijah stepped forward and naturally held Cordelia's soft hand in his palm.

Feeling that Cordelia's hand was cold, Elijah frowned slightly and immediately took off his coat and put it on Cordelia.

Seeing Elijah's movements, Lamia's eyes widened.

She said, "Elijah, did I see wrong? I remember you didn't know how to take care of people!"

Elijah stared at Lamia with sharp eyes, and she immediately shut up.

Cordelia explained, "Elijah is a reserved man, and he doesn't bother to show affection in front of others."

Elijah's cell phone rang. He ignored Lamia and went to answer the phone.

Lamia approached Cordelia and hugged her arm. "Cordelia, did you teach Elijah? He never took care of women before."

Cordelia said, "I didn't. Maybe Eva taught him."

Thinking of Eva's squeamish appearance, Cordelia was surer of her guess.

However, Lamia denied it.

She said, "When Elijah was with Eva, he didn't take care of her so naturally as he did to you. He would only do what Eva wanted."

As Lamia said that, she started acting vividly.

At this time, the servant came to the yard to call them. It was time for dinner.
