Chapter 392
Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia)
Chapter 392 You Deserve It!
Cordelia returned to the hotel feeling very tired.
She took a shower, dried her hair, and was about to go to bed when
her phone rang.
Cordelia had already deleted that number but knew it belonged to
Elijah.
His number was just like the person he was. Cordelia wanted to delete
him completely from her heart, but the past had already been deeply
imprinted on her heart.
Cordelia ignored it, turned to the mute mode, and let the phone keep
getting calls from that number.
Later, there was a knock at the door.
Cordelia approached the door and asked cautiously, "Who is it?"
"It's me." Elijah's magnetic voice came from the crack between the door
and frame.
"Go away. I won't see you."
After saying that, the footsteps inside the door gradually became
distant.
Not long after, Cordelia received an entertainment news notification
The title: [Kelly has a late-night tryst with a mysterious rich man, and
they revel at the hotel until dawn.]
Cordelia pressed her lips and clicked on the photo, finding it was Elijah
and a woman.
So, was the woman he brought back to the hotel that night a star?
"Cordelia, Kelly is Ben's cousin. That night, she just wanted to be
exposed on the news,â Elijah explained outside the door.
Cordelia came to the door angrily and opened it suddenly. "Elijah, are
you finished?"
Cordelia felt that he was intentionally making loud noises at the door to
force her to open the door.
Elijah smiled bitterly. "I have no other choice. You ignore me."
"Wait for me to change clothes. Let's go out and talk.â Cordelia closed
the door again after speaking.
After a while, she changed into the clothes suitable for going out, went
to the restaurant downstairs of the hotel with Elijah, and ordered
midnight snacks for two.
They sat opposite each other and ate in silence.
Cordelia had already noticed Elijahâ's decadence without a trace.
His hair had grown a bit longer, and there was still a little stubble on his
chin, making him like a down-and-out nobleman
If Cordelia didn't know about his financial situation, she might really
have some sympathy for his current situation.
But now, even if the Hansen family kicked out Elijah, Elijah had more
money than God. Cordelia would not be overflowing with sympathy
and pity for him.
After Cordelia finished her supper, Elijah said thoughtfully, "I'm very
grateful you are willing to listen to my explanation.â
"Didn't you force this? You tried your best to force me to meet you.
Elijah, I really don't want to pay attention to you!"
Cordelia lowered her eyes. Those were the cruelest words she could say
to Elijah.
In fact, she had thought of something crueler.
But when she saw him, she felt that it was not necessary.
The angrier she acted, the more she seemed to care. She wanted that
man to feel that she didn't care at all!
Elijah stared at Cordelia's pretty face and said thoughtfully, "It's my
fault. I should have reported it to you in advance. But two days ago, I
dared not see or contact you. You don't know how I spent those two
days."
Cordelia smiled politely. "Elijah, you deserve it!"
Elijah's eyes widened, showing astonishment.
"After agreeing to reconcile with you, I have been reflecting on myself
and trying to communicate with you seriously. I know I have always
been lacking at that point, so I will try my best to make up for it.
"I thought that as long as I took the initiative, our problems would
gradually improve, but I was too naive!
"My wishful thinking made everything look good, but hidden dangers
have always existed. Sure enough, something happened!
"Elijah, why don't you keep hiding? Ignore me. Don't come to me. Why
don't you completely disappear in my world if you can?"
