Chapter 396 Help You Recall Every Detail

Cordelia hesitated at the door.

Just as she turned to leave, she heard Milo's voice.

"Cordelia, come in."

Cordelia looked over and saw Milo while Eason was sitting next to him.

"So, is this banquet organized by Sir Hansen? He is really capable of

adapting to different circumstances. No wonder he has been the head

of the Hansen family for so many years," she thought.

Cordelia walked in expressionlessly and sat on the other side of Milo.

After drinking and eating for a while, Gideon promptly started a topic

and introduced Eason’s life experience.

As a result, Gideon recounted the events of that year as if telling a

story, triggering frequent nods from the guests in attendance.

Cordelia really admired Gideon's ability to make up stories, as he

beautified Mia's despicable behavior into a silly woman who was

educated and understanding and gave everything for love without

asking for anything in return.

If Gabe knew, he would definitely resurrect immediately and argue with

his father.

"Our family and Cordelia's family originally had a marriage contract, Mr.

Carter. Now that the two children are fond of each other, we might as

well fulfill their wishes. What do you think?"

Putting down his wine glass, Milo laughed but did not express his

opinion.

Cordelia didn't look at Gideon from the beginning to the end. She just

lowered her head and ate the food elegantly and calmly.

Gideon's words were laughed off by Milo, which made him feel

embarrassed.

The other guests immediately echoed, "I think Eason and Evie are a

perfect match. They are both talented and beautiful.”

"Yes! Good things take time, and they are destined for each other.”

At this time, Cordelia suddenly said, "Sir Hansen, you are old, and your

memory may be a little bad. So, do you want me to help you recall

every detail of the three years I was the daughter-in-law of the Hansen

family?"

Sure enough, when her words fell, the guests present were all

embarrassed.

Those who were invited to the banquet by Gideon today were naturally

all his supporters, and they naturally knew the affairs of the Hansen

family.

Gideon's expression did not change, and he said with a smile, "Cordelia,

I felt sorry for you when I asked you to marry Elijah back then. I spoiled

him too much, and his temper was bad. So, I want to make it up to

you."

Cordelia had already begun to applaud Gideon in her heart. He was

such a cunning old fox and good at talking.

Cordelia smiled politely and said, "I accept your good intentions. But

you have always taught future generations to be fidelity and faithful, so

I have always kept your words in mind. Therefore, after I separated from

Elijah, 1 have no intention to find a mate.”

As Gideon heard that, he twitched his beard unconsciously. Meanwhile,

the guests sighed with feeling.

Cordelia's words overtly and covertly reflected that Gideon risked

destroying his fame. Of course, Gideon supporters knew the meaning

behind it.

However, they still had to ride Gideon's coattails, so they had no choice

but to pretend they didn't hear it.

At this time, Milo interrupted, "All right. Since the matter has been

discussed, I will leave with Evie now. Thank you for the hospitality.”

With that, Milo stood up, and Cordelia followed behind obediently,

preparing to leave.

Eason stood up and said to the grim-faced Gideon, "I will see Milo and

Cordelia off."

Gideon didn't want to lose his temper in front of the guests, so he said

with a gloomy face, "Go! Tell Cordelia I hope she will think carefully, and

don't be ignorant.”
