Chapter 317

Chapter 317 I'm Serious

Adam naturally knew that Eason was warning him. Eason used this

example to make Adam reflect on himself that he had cared too much

recently.

Alas, it seemed that Cordelia's rejection was still a blow and frustration

to Eason.

After hanging up the phone, Adam murmured, "I shouldn't have cared

so much.”

Early the next morning, Cordelia took her luggage to the airport.

Because she got up early and didn't meet the morning rush hour, the

journey went smoothly.

When arriving at the airport, Cordelia unexpectedly met Eason.

With restrained emotions, Eason came to Cordelia as usual and said,

"Cordelia, I'll see you off."

"Thank you, Eason.” Cordelia smiled.

For a while, the two were relatively silent.

At this time, Eason didn't want to mention work. But except for that, he

didn’t know what to say.

"Mr. Gudwin said you had dinner with him last night.”

Cordelia nodded. "Yes. Eason, do you know how Mr. Gudwin and Elijah

met?"

Eason looked quietly at the sky outside the glass and said, "Mr.

Gudwin's beloved woman is Elijah's mother.”

Cordelia was stunned.

After thinking about it, she felt reasonable.

"No wonder Mr. Gudwin was in a better mood after Elijah appeared.

Perhaps Edith took the initiative to contact him."

Eason smiled and asked, "I heard that he introduced a man to you."

Cordelia was embarrassed. "Mr. Gudwin is indeed very enthusiastic,

but..."

Cordelia shook her head with a wry smile.

Eason's heavy heart suddenly relaxed a little.

"Take care, Cordelia. Call me if you need.”

"Okay."

Cordelia dragged the suitcase, turned around quickly, and entered the

security checkpoint.

Eason stared at her back and didn't return to his senses for a long time.

After Cordelia disappeared, he came back to his senses and saw

someone familiar, Elijah!

"Mr. Hansen." Eason took the initiative to chat with Elijah.

Elijah had seen Eason and Cordelia a long time ago.

Seeing that they were saying goodbye normally without any intimate

behavior, Elijah did not show up because it would annoy Cordelia.

It was unexpected that Eason would take the initiative to chat with him.

Elijah stopped, took off his sunglasses, and looked at Eason.

"Mr. Holland, what's the matter?"

"Are you going to Bloom City too?" Eason used the word "too" with

obvious meaning.

"Yes, I have a business to talk," Elijah said calmly.

Eason smiled lightly as if he had seen through everything and said,

"Just talking about business? Or, talking about business is just an

excuse.”

Elijah also smiled, "What? When did you become so straightforward?"

Eason immediately stopped smiling and said, “I admit that I do like

Cordelia. But I will respect her wishes and choices. If my presence

makes her uncomfortable, I will stop immediately. I am serious to

Cordelia."

Elijah knew what Eason meant.

Although Eason's words didn't sound pleasant, Elijah still patiently

thought if what he did was right and did not argue with Eason

impulsively.

He stared at Eason for a long time with cold eyes and then said, "I

admit that I'm persistent. But I think this is the courage a man should

have.”

Eason's eyes were deep, and he thought about Elijah’s words seriously.

Elijah smiled lightly. "I am indeed not as tolerant as you. Forgive me

that I really can't just be her friend and watch her being with other men.

I must work hard to do something. This is what a man should be like."

Eason suddenly narrowed his eyes as if he understood something.

However, it seemed that everything was too late.
