Chapter 22 So Sweet

Nevertheless, the matter was finally resolved perfectly under the joint

effort of Cordelia and Imogen.

As for Brian's dismissal, Cordelia didn't care about it at all.

What she was concerned about the most was when Elijah could go

through the divorce formalities with her.

She asked Elijah several times but got no specific answer. He either

refused to answer her or was busy, which greatly frustrated Cordelia.

Sometimes, she would suspect that Elijah wanted to take back his

words.

But soon, she would drop the idea.

She would never forget that Eva was still eagerly waiting for them to

get divorced, so she could be married to Elijah!

In the evening, Cordelia was doing yoga following a video tutorial when

her phone buzzed.

She frowned slightly and took the phone.

How strange! It was Lamia, her sister-in-law.

“Hey, Cordelia. I need to tell you something. Your husband is drunk and

being accompanied by a sophisticated woman!”

She heard a lot of such gossip about her husband in the past, but with

the intervention of her bossy mother-in-law, Elijah’s name was always

cleared in the end.

But now, his sister personally tipped off the news, which sounded more

believable to Cordelia.

“What? What's the matter with you? Your man is going to be snatched

away by other women, and you are not worried at all? I'll tell you this.

That woman is very open!”

Lamia's words undoubtedly aroused Cordelia’s anger and fighting

spirit.

“Well! Let's see how open and promiscuous this woman is!” Cordelia

thought.

Twenty minutes later, Cordelia appeared at the door of the clubhouse.

Lamia was kind enough to show up too. She was already at the door,

waiting for Cordelia.

“Cordelia, you look so..." sexy today.

Cordelia wore a purple tube dress, which brought out her curvy body

and made her look sexy yet elegant.

But Lamia didn't say the second half of the sentence. She was also quite

beautiful that day, and she didn’t want to admit. Cordelia’s beauty.

When Cordelia opened the box door and walked in, she saw Eva

silling on the sofa and feeding Elijah a grape, her whole body leaning

against him.

Lamia added fuel to the fire by saying, “Look, this woman has been

pestering my brother because she is disabled, Cordelia. How could you

live with it?”

Cordelia thought to herself, “This is nothing. I've seen him doing stuff

with other women.”

At this time, Ben, who was sitting not far from Elijah, noticed Cordelia at

the door and waved to her.

Ben was also surrounded by hot women, and he was in a mess.

Cordelia nodded politely at him and then walked straight toward Elijah.

“Hi, gorgeous. Come and let's chat a bit!”

A stranger suddenly staggered and stepped forward, grabbed

Cordelia’s wrist, and tried to pull her to his seat.

Only then did Elijah notice Cordelia, and his eyes squinted as if

confirming something.

"Hi, girl. Are you alone?”

Cordelia raised her eyes and glanced at Elijah just in time to meet his

burning gaze.

She lowered her eyes, playing with the collarbone chain around. her

beautiful neck. “I'm here for someone.”

“I see. Since you are here already, why don't we have a drink or two?

After drinking, I'll help you look for your friend!”

Cordelia raised her hand and grabbed the glass of whiskey in front of

her. “Great!”

The man laughed heartily and raised his hand to hug Cordelia“s

shoulders.

Suddenly, someone else grasped Cordelia’s forearm and pulled her

away. Cordelia could smell a familiar scent.
