Cordelia hesitated for a moment.
During this period, she had gotten used to being alone.
Although she had no cleanliness obsession, she didn't want others sleeping in her bed.
"Just kidding." Elijah didn't wait for her to refuse and quickly found an excuse. "What happened yesterday was my fault. I shouldn't have let my grandfather and Daiss run wild and let you misunderstand."
Cordelia pulled her hand back from his palm and spoke seriously, "I didn't misunderstand anything. You're single now, so you have the freedom to choose anyone. The Kingsley family is powerful. If you marry Daisy..."
"Cordelia, spare me the sermon. I don't want to hear these things." Elijah lifted the blanket and stood up.
Cordelia immediately fell silent.
Indeed, Elijah wasn't stupid. He naturally understood the interests involved.
He was just rebellious by nature, insisting on going against his family!
He had married Cordelia reluctantly and neglected her during their marriage.
Now that they were divorced, he insisted on being involved with his ex-wife.
In any case, he couldn't let the elders think he was submissive!
Seeing her cold expression and silence, Elijah spoke in a softer tone, "Yesterday, my grandfather personally brought Daiss to my office. I thought we made everything clear, but she still posted those things. I was afraid you would misunderstand."
After experiencing the terrifying incident of Cordelia's car accident, Elijah realized it wasn't enough for him to be guilt-free in his own heart.
He had seriously underestimated the ability of those women to cause trouble.
So, when he found out about the things Daisy had posted, he anxiously tried to contact Cordelia but couldn't reach her.
In addition, he saw the things Imogen had posted...
He immediately booked a flight and rushed over in the middle of the night.
Even when he stood outside the door and knocked, he was worried that it would be Eason who opened it.
