She was questioned.
Cordelia wasn't flustered, but when she asked herself, she actually never gave in to the relationship wholeheartedly. She always left a way out for herself.
Her grandmother told her that the human heart was the most complicated.
Everyone was complex and multifaceted.
When everything was fine, they would treat everyone with warmth and happiness.
Once exposed to certain situations, their humanity would be revealed.
Therefore, Cordelia learned early on that she needed to be reserved no matter who she interacted with.
It was the same when she was in love.
She was fortunate that she was a reserved and introverted person, and when it came to relationships, she adopted an unrequited love approach.
So even when she was sad, it was temporary. It would not become a permanent pain after the excitement and passion were over, secretly healing the wounds alone.
Her grandmother taught her so much and provided her with so many skills that she was never idle. It wouldn't cause her to lose a relationship, but it felt like she was losing both a man and the entire world.
Therefore, she was still confident and shone brightly.
She took a deep breath and said, "Elijah, I am the kind of person who hopes to get a response when I give in to my feelings. If it is just me giving unilaterally and the other party can't see it, I will force myself to give up."
This was just like she used to grow slowly during those three years of marriage and eventually came out of that relationship on her own initiative.
She had become more mature.
She added, "As for you, I admit that I always have reservations, but it doesn't mean that I did something wrong to you. You also have selfish intentions and don't trust me completely."
Cordelia looked at him unwavering, and her affirmative aura did not weaken but was not strong either.
It was more like she was reasoning with Elijah with a gentle voice and was not angry because she was singled out.
