Chapter 15 Sleep Position
In front of the elders, Cordelia had always been submissive. And at this moment, she still acted like this.
But she offered no excuses, no apologies, and no promises.
Later, probably because she stayed in Gideon’s study for too long, Elijah came.
Seeing the photos all over the floor, he frowned. “Grandpa, Cordelia just went to help a friend this time. Nothing like this will ever happen in the future.”
Cordelia lowered her head and frowned slightly.
She didn’t expect that Elijah would come to root for her.
Gideon glared at Elijah. “You are very generous. But she embarra*sed the Hansen family!”
Elijah smiled lightly. “You always teach us to value love and righteousness in life, and Cordelia is such a person. This time, she indeed had to do it to help her friend.”
Gideon coldly glanced at Cordelia who had been silent from the beginning to the end, snorted coldly, and waved his hand. “Take your wife and leave quickly. I don’t want to see you.”.
“I see, Grandpa.” After saying that, Elijah took Cordelia’s hand and led her out of the study.
walked back to the room quickly.
When Cordelia entered the door, Elijah said coldly, “Are you happy now after being scolded?”
“You know better than anyone that I didn’t need to bear it, did
I?”
Cordelia was extremely calm at the moment. When she looked at Elijah, there was no affection in her eyes like before.
If Elijah had directly agreed to get divorced, she wouldn’t have had to bear these things.
Elijah’s face turned cold, and he said in a serious tone, “Cordelia, don’t go too far. What right do you have to ask me for a divorce? You insisted on marrying into the Hansen family back then, didn’t you? You want to enter and leave the Hansen family at will. Who do you think you are?”
Cordelia was stunned.
She never thought that Elijah had always harbored resentment. towards his family’s arrangement back then.
In this way, everything made sense. She was too stupid back then, thinking that she had a dream come true. However, she was just a joke!
Hearing it, Cordelia didn’t speak.
She lay quietly. Elijah took a look at her several times until she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep without even changing. her clothes.
The next morning, Cordelia Woke u
She knew it was Elijah, but she didn’t understand why they slept in this position.
She just moved a little, causing Elijah to wake up, but he didn’t let go of the hands holding her.
Cordelia’s face was facing Elijah’s ch*st so that when Elijah lowered his head, he could see her flawless forehead and long eyelashes.
Her eyelashes were long and curled up. They were trembling slightly at this time, like a butterfly flapping its wings.
“You… you didn’t leave last night?” Cordelia asked in a low
voice.
“Where should I go?” Elijah raised his voice at the end with a little dissatisfaction.
That was right. If he wanted to leave, he had to get Gideon’s permission first. So he dared not to leave.
“Why are we in this position?” Cordelia asked unnaturally, feeling a little shy.
“You rolled into my arms several times at night, and I couldn’t push you away.” Elijah smiled, seeming to be in a good mood.
“Nonsense. No way.
I always have an obedient sleep position!” Cordelia thought.
Cordelia was taken aback for a moment and then looked up at him in astonishment. Her beautiful eyes were full of complexity.
“Before your mother remarried, she should have only given birth to you, right?” Elijah asked suddenly.
“Yeah…”
Therefore, the brother she called out when she was drunk and dreaming was not her biological brother!
Then it must be her childhood sweetheart.
Elijah withdrew his hands coldly, stood up with his back to her, and stretched his numb arms.
“Elijah, what did I say last night?” Cordelia asked.
Elijah’s tone was unhappy, and he said coldly, “You said that you don’t want a divorce or part with me who is a cash cow.”
Cordelia covered her face, feeling speechless.
“I believe none of the words this man said this morning!
But why? Why is he doing this?” She thought.
