Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia)

Chapter 102

Chapter 102 Cared About Her Feelings

After bidding farewell to Imogen, Cordelia and Lamia rode together in a car back to Gideon’s place.

“Cordelia, I’ve noticed that my brother has been increasingly stingy lately,” Lamia complained with a

dissatisfied expression.

“What’s wrong?” Cordelia looked at her, genuinely interested.

Lamia pouted and smiled. “Today, Grandfather asked us to have dinner at his place. I thought I’d pick

you up and go together, but my brother didn’t like the idea.”

Cordelia blinked her eyes, and her heart gave a slight jolt.

Indeed, Elijah had been quite clingy lately.

Imogen mentioned that some people only realized what they had after losing it, and that was why there

was a cooling-off period in divorce proceedings, to prevent couples from impulsively divorcing and later

regretting it.

However, Cordelia knew deep down that her attitude toward the divorce hadn’t changed. It was simply

a matter of whether they negotiated an amicable separation or ended up in court.

“Oh, by the way, there’s something I think you should know. At

first, my brother had another potential marriage partner, and our two families used to be neighbors,”

Lamia said mysteriously.

Cordelia nodded, saying, “I think you mentioned that before.”

Lamia seemed a bit embarrassed. “Well, back then, I didn’t like you very much and naturally thought

that you couldn’t compare to Daisy.”

Daisy Kingsley was Elijah’s childhood sweetheart.

After learning that the Hansen family had arranged Elijah’s marriage, Daisy left the country, traveling

the world but never returning home.

Since they hadn’t had any private contact, Cordelia had gradually forgotten about her. But she didn’t

expect Lamia to bring it up again.

“So, is she back?” Cordelia asked calmly.

“No, but I heard she still has feelings for my brother. Now that I’m on your side, I thought you should

know,” Lamia explained.

Cordelia looked at Lamia with gratitude, gently patting her head. “Thank you, Lamia.”

Lamia beamed with delight. “You’re welcome!”

They both returned to the Hansen Manor together.

It wasn’t long before Elijah also arrived, and the family dinner

officially began.

Gideon raised his wine glass and declared in joy, “Today, we have good news to announce to all of NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

you…

“Baxter’s daughter-in-law is pregnant again! Haha…”

Gideon’s hearty laughter echoed throughout the dining room.

Cordelia couldn’t help but notice the bitter smiles on the faces of Gabe and Edith.

Baxter’s family once again had another exciting news. Although his daughter-in-law miscarried twice,

the good news could still make Gideon very happy.

But on the other hand, Cordelia had never been pregnant, and Gabe and Edith were struggling to

maintain their composure.

Elijah, meanwhile, continued eating his meal as if the news had nothing to do with him.

Lamia, on the other hand, kept sending Cordelia meaningful glances, indicating that she needed to do

something about the situation. Otherwise, their family’s status might be in jeopardy.

The dinner turned out to be an awkward affair, with everyone except Gideon lacking an appetite and

trying to put on a cheerful facade to make him pleased.

After dinner, Gideon suddenly changed his tone and coldly said to Elijah, “Elijah, come to my study. I

have something to discuss

with you.

“Oh,” Elijah replied, getting up. Before leaving, he patted Cordelia’s head and reassured her, “Don’t

overthink it. Go for a walk in the courtyard and wait for me. I’ll be down in a while, and then we’ll go

home.”

Cordelia watched Elijah’s retreating figure in astonishment.

Was he trying to comfort her just now?

It was simply unbelievable!

In the past, she had to endure alone whenever she was lectured by the elders.

But something was different today. Elijah actually cared about her feelings!
