Chapter 29 I’ll Kill You
“You were on fire last night and kept asking me to give you good.
And you kept saying you wanted a baby.”
Elijah smiled and gently pinched her soft baby face.
Cordelia’s body couldn’t help trembling slightly. She asked Elijah vigilantly, “Why did you come to me last night?”
“Your friend called me. She said she couldn’t reach you and was afraid that you might hurt yourself,” Elijah said calmly.
Cordelia suddenly realized that Imogen must have informed him.
So Elijah came to check on her because he felt bad about abandoning her on the highway and worried that she could hurt herself.
She didn’t know what to say to him.
The truth was Cordelia was a little moved by Elijah’s gesture.
But she was no longer the girl who used to love him no matter what.
She knew men were good at pretending to be nice. It was all fake.
Elijah just wanted to sleep with her!
suddenly become interested in her?
Therefore, Cordelia pushed away Elijah’s hand and said solemnly, “Mr. Hansen, a deal is a deal. I just need you to spare an hour to divorce me. It shouldn’t be hard. Why can’t you agree?”
Cordelia didn’t understand. She even promised that she would take nothing from him. Why didn’t he sign the divorce paper?
Elijah’s look changed immediately. “I spared you plenty of time and gave you many opportunities, but you refused them.”
Cordelia was furious, but she had nothing to say.
“Now, I’ll give you another chance. Do you want to go back with. me?” Elijah said coldly and domineeringly.
But Cordelia was a stubborn woman. She said word by word, “No. I do not.”
The man seemed to have lost his patience. He turned around and left without looking back.
Looking at his back, Cordelia felt like someone had stabbed her heart again. She couldn’t help covering her chest in pain and slowly sat on the ground…
Cordelia rested for three days.
But she was in no peace during the time.
What happened that day probably angered Elijah. As a result, Cordelia’s family suffered.
Her mother, Janice, kept pestering her like crazy.
She even went to Cordelia’s studio while Cordelia was resting at home. After receiving a call from an employee, Cordelia immediately took a taxi to the studio.
Janice was downstairs. Looking at Cordelia arrogantly, she said coldly, “Cordelia, you are a grown-up now. You should know how to work on your marriage with Elijah. What did you do to make him end his partnership with Kevin?”
Cordelia looked at Janice coldly but remained silent.
