Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia) novel Chapter 335

Having driven Clare away, Cordelia invited Elijah into the house.

This was the first time Cordelia had invited Elijah into the villa since she moved in.

Drinking the coffee which she brewed herself, Elijah felt as if his soul had drifted away, feeling dizzy.

The torment he had endured during this time felt like he had lived through a long century.

So, at this moment, when they were sitting together, even if they were just quietly sipping coffee, it felt precious to him.

After a while, Cordelia cleared her throat, breaking the silence in the room.

"You came to see me. Is there something you need?" she asked.

Elijah leaned back on the sofa and then said, "I came to see you. These past few days have been too busy, and I couldn't find the time to visit you."

"You called off your engagement. Didn't your grandfather use any family disciplinary measures on you?" Cordelia asked curiously.

"He knows he only has a few good years left. My father's health hasn't been great lately, and now the entire Hansen Group relies on me. So, he can only turn a blind eye to it," Elijah explained.

Upon hearing Elijah's words, Cordelia couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

After this turmoil, the Hansen Group suffered significant damage, making Gideon gradually realize the truth.

If it weren't for Elijah, he might have become the scapegoat for the entire family.

"But my grandfather still doesn't want to let go of his power," Elijah added.

Cordelia smiled faintly and said, "You can't let go of your family either, can you?"

To let go, to change everything now, who could do it so easily?

Elijah hesitated for a moment and then explained seriously, "Cordelia, if my parents hadn't had a divorce, I really could have left the Hansen family."
