Chapter 128 Show Off
It might be too sudden.
Cordelia’s performance was beyond Elijah’s expectations, so he didn’t know what to do.
She propped herself up, leaned over like a cat, and k*ssed him on the cheek.
After that, she looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
Elijah took Cordelia into his arms and murmured, “Cordelia, do you want the stars in the sky? I’ll pick them and give them to you.”
Cordelia’s heart was beating wildly.
Elijah’s voice was very soft, but every word he said made her heart pound.
When it came to acting, she felt inferior.
So she pretended to laugh casually. “You are not angry now, are
you?”
Elijah was stunned for a moment, then let her go and said lightly, “I don’t need to teach you next time, right? You fool.”
Cordelia leaned on his shoulder and closed her eyes tiredly.
“You are a fool…”
She seemed to be asleep. Her long eyelashes curled and occasionally trembled slightly.
Elijah stared greedily at her delicate face. His eyes were deep, and the look in his eyes was unknown.
[Cordelia, do you remember the forest fire in Mount Damerel? Eason was on the scene.]
[Eason hides a lot of secrets, including his feelings for you. He may be afraid of causing trouble to you.]
[I hope you can think about it carefully. He has been waiting for you.]
The messages that Adam sent to Cordelia were like a thorn in Elijah’s flesh. He thought of them from time to time.
Although Elijah deleted those messages at that time, he guessed that Cordelia must have known about them later.
Thinking of those words, Elijah became irritable.
When the car stopped, Elijah carried Cordelia back to the bedroom.
He gently put Cordelia into the soft bedding.
He wanted to get up but found that Cordelia was still tightly clutching the corner of his clothes.
“Elijah, Elijah…
Cordelia seemed to be raving, not awake.
There was a flash of madness in Elijah’s eyes. He was filled with joy.
This time, Cordelia didn’t mutter “Eason” but “Elijah”.
Elijah lay beside Cordelia with his clothes on, hugged her tightly, closed his eyes contentedly, and fell asleep with her…
Cordelia felt that something was wrong with Elijah recently.
His Instagram was updated too frequently.
Moreover, each post was meaningful.
For example, at 9 o’clock this morning, he posted a photo of Cordelia sleeping with her head covered. Only the top of her head was exposed.
The most ridiculous thing was that Edith liked it and commented: [Go away. Don’t disturb Cordelia when she is sleeping. This is what your grandpa said.]
There were also many likes and jokes from friends. They said something suggestive.
Then at 3 pm, Elijah updated his Instagram again.
Cordelia was stunned when she saw that photo because it was taken by Elijah while she was shopping in the supermarket.
In the photo, Cordelia was holding the ingredients with her head down. The look in her eyes was soft, and the bag on her shoulder was shiny.
There were no words like before.
But this time, many smart friends were jealous, saying that Elijah was showing off.
Imogen was holding her phone with envy on her face. “Cordelia, I feel that Elijah loves you more.”
“Yeah.”
Cordelia did not deny this because she felt Elijah’s deep love.
