Chapter 303
Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia)
Chapter 303 I Want to Live With You
Eason parked the car and took Cordelia to a private room in a
restaurant.
This private room was at the end of the restaurant and was very quiet.
Cordelia had no appetite and was full after a few bites.
Eason frowned and asked, "Elijah seems to mind you living with me. In
this way, he appears more righteous, and maybe he will say you did
something wrong."
Cordelia took a sip of the juice and said calmly, "Eason, I know
someone secretly took pictures that night, and I purposely stayed with
you. The more he tries to shirk responsibility, the more I hate him! I
want to forget him!"
Although Elijah didn't say anything today, Ben said everything for him.
Elijah was engaged to another woman. He didn't have time to notify
Cordelia in advance but had the energy to send someone to watch her.
Cordelia was completely disappointed with Elijah and didn't want to
have any more relationships with him. Even just listening to his
explanation was a waste of time for her.
Cordeliaâs words gave Eason both comfort and worry.
He was comfortable because Cordelia had seen Elijah through and left
him decisively, which Eason felt was good.
However, he was worried that Cordelia was only strong on the surface
and would cry secretly at night.
So, after finishing the meal, Eason took her back to the apartment.
Cordelia came out to drink water in the middle of the night and found
someone on the couch. She quickly turned on a small light.
"Eason, go to sleep in the bedroom.â
Cordelia didn't notice when Eason had come back again.
Hearing Cordelia's voice, Eason immediately sat up and said, "I'm a little
worried.â
Cordelia raised her eyebrows and frowned tightly. "Eason, I'm not that
fragile. I just broke up. You don't need to treat me so cautiously.â
"I know." Eason stood up as he spoke and said apologetically, "I'm
leaving now. You go back to sleep!â
Seeing Eason nervously accommodating her, Cordelia felt something
was wrong with Eason.
"Eason, I plan to move out tomorrow. I'm sorry that I used you before.â
With Eason as a shield, Elijah obviously had scruples about his
harassment towards her.
But at the same time, Cordelia understood that she had indeed brought
a lot of unwarranted trouble to Eason recently. So she wanted to
compensate him in business.
"Cordelia!" Eason suddenly put on a straight face and said seriously, "I'll
be even more worried about you moving out. You're a woman and an
out-of-towner. I can't let you do that!"
Cordelia never expected that she and Eason would discuss such a trivial
matter in the middle of the night, which was somewhat ridiculous.
Suddenly, Cordelia couldn't help laughing. "Forget it. We'll talk about it
tomorrow. You go back to the bedroom and sleep. In case you catch a
cold.â
"I want to live with you." Eason rarely blurted out without thinking.
Cordelia was stunned suddenly.
"Cordelia, I'm your friend, and I can always be, or if you need someone
to take care of you and accompany you, I can do it, too," Eason said
calmly.
Cordelia lowered her eyes. Her first thought was, "It's over. I will lose
Eason."
She once thought there was pure friendship between men and women.
Now she realized how naive she was.
She admitted that Eason was excellent.
But a man like him, who was mature, restrained, and complicated, was
not right for her and was not her type.
Seeing that she pressed her lips and said nothing, Eason couldn't help
but continue, "Maybe I'm being a little imposing to mention this to you
now. You don't need to answer me immediately. And I will continue to
be a shadow.â
Like before, he was willing to be the invisible shadow accompanying
Cordelia.
