Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia) novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69 Coax Me Like This 

“Of course, I’m serious.” 

Elijah replied earnestly, taking the opportunity to tease Cordelia while removing her clothes. 

Cordelia tried to evade his hands and quickly put on Elijah’s bathrobe, tying the belt securely to avoid any accident. 

Surprisingly, the long sleeves of the bathrobe did seem somewhat fancy. 

Before long, Cordelia picked up the violin and stood straight, instantly immersing herself into the performance. 

After a simple tuning, she began playing the prelude without hesitation, and the lively and passionate melody filled the room. 

Cordelia held the bow and played passionately, occasionally glancing up at her sole audience, smiling confidently with a glint of sharpness in her eyes. 

Elijah’s gaze, deep and intense, remained locked on the woman in front of him. He watched her attentively, his eyes growing more profound with each passing note. 

Until the last note faded away, the lingering resonance gradually subsided, the entire villa returned to silence. 

Elijah applauded her enthusiastically, getting up and approaching her. 

“Are you satisfied now?” Cordelia looked at him with a smile. 

She was quite satisfied with this violin, and that was why she had performed exceptionally well.

The next morning, Jacob called Cordelia carly to express his 

gratitude. 

“Thank you so much for yesterday, Cordelia. Can I treat you to a meal?” Jacob asked. 

Cordelia shifted in bed, feeling a bit sore, and declined, “Your gratitude is more than enough. You’ve already paid me a generous fee. There’s no need for a meal.” 

Jacob was really generous and paid her 200 thousand dollars for her performance. After all, Cordelia used to perform for free. 

Jacob was clearly disappointed, but he didn’t insist. He sincerely thanked her once again and asked if she could chat with Mireya when she had time. Cordelia agreed. 

After hanging up the phone, Cordelia tried to go back to sleep but couldn’t. 

She checked her messages and learned that Eason had arrived in Beilve City. 

She quickly called Eason and found out that he was staying in a hotel. They decided to have a meal together. 

Over lunch, they discussed some issues related to the establishment of the research institute. With the financial
