Chapter 178 The Biggest Secret
Cordelia was stunned for a long time. Even though she knew Elijah didn’t remember her at all, she still wanted to hear the answer from him.
Today, she finally did it and would have no regrets.
But Elijah felt a little incredible.
He held Cordelia’s wrist tightly for fear she would disappear if he let go of her.
“Cordelia, how many things have you kept from me? You sentenced our marriage to death without telling me anything. You are too cold-hearted.”
Elijah’s eyes were stained with sadness.
The woman who often surprised him was holding a divorce certificate and was completely away from his life.
Cordelia smiled and said slowly, “Yes, I do have many secrets. The biggest secret among them is that I like you.”
Elijah’s eyes darkened in an instant. All his emotions poured out for a while, making it too late for him to hide them.
“Are you kidding me?”
Cordelia still wore a smile. “Isn’t it funny? Can you let me go now?”
Elijah let her go slowly, looking at her with complicated eyes.
“You always say I have something to hide from you. What about you? How many things did you tell me about you? Mr. Hansen, you are too hypocritical.”
While speaking, Cordelia put the divorce certificate in her bag.
“I think we should say goodbye now!”
“Cordelia!”
Elijah caught up with her and asked, “When did you know me?”
“Five years ago,” Cordelia said truthfully.
“Four years ago, I was drunk in Venco Hill. I hugged you and k*ssed you. Why didn’t you come to me after that?” Elijah asked again.
“No need. We are not from the same world.”
In fact, they met each other the next day after that night, but Elijah couldn’t remember at all.
Cordelia was very timid at that time. She didn’t dare to find Elijah for fear of being laughed at.
Elijah felt lost and empty in his heart.
“Cordelia, you can’t do this to me.” His tone was resentful.
He was like an abandoned dog, begging its owner to take another look at him.
Cordelia looked at the end of the corridor and said, “We are like two cars on different roads. We are forced to drive together and will inevitably bump into each other. That’s it!”
After speaking, Cordelia didn’t stay any longer, nor did she look back.
Walking out of the Courthouse, she felt warm with the scorching sunlight shining on her.
Cordelia closed her eyes and opened them after enjoying the warmth for a while. Her eyes were gleaming, and she put on a smile.
It was finally over!
“Cordelia.”
Adam walked over anxiously and asked, “Is everything going well?”
“Yes, it’s done.”
Adam heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “Let’s go. I’ll treat you to a fancy meal.”
“Great.”
After their car was far away, Elijah slowly walked out of the Courthouse with dull eyes as if he had nothing to do.
He looked in the direction where Cordelia left for a long time and withdrew his gaze.
At this time, his phone rang.
Gideon sounded in a good mood on the phone. He said, “Elijah, I knew you wouldn’t let me down. Come back. Daisy is waiting for you at home!”
Elijah narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “It’s none of my business.
“Also, if Cordelia hadn’t insisted on the divorce, I would not have agreed.”
