Chapter 11 Marry Him in Return
“Thank you, Adam. I’ll check it later,” Cordelia said lightly.
“Don’t be so polite with me. When will you come to Grant City? Your brothers all want to see you,”
Adam said with a smile.
“I’ll get there if I get the chance.”
After chatting with Adam, Cordelia quickly hung up the phone.
It was purely accidental that she was recognized as the adopted
sister of the “Four Influential Young Men in Grant City.” Initially, she just did Adam a little favor, but he
firmly insisted on considering her as his adopted sister.
As a result, she became an adopted sister of the four men who were extremely influential in Grant City,
though she had never met the other three.
It was so funny.
Coming out of the bathroom, Cordelia turned on her computer and checked Eva’s individual
information.
The light from the computer screen reflected Cordelia’s delicate appearance, making her look more
serious.
“A life-saving grace?” Cordelia murmured, “Well… it’s reasonable for her to want to marry Elijah in
return.”
“Slap-” Cordelia closed her computer, got up, and left the desk…
Two days later, in the evening,

colleagues, Cordelia unexpectedly ran into Elijah, who was also engaging in a social activity.
He was dressed in formal attire, with a cold and serious expression on his handsome face, clearly
conveying a sense of reluctant participation.
Cordelia pretended not to recognize him and lowered her head as she walked past, but the man
grabbed her wrist.
“Cordelia, I drank too much. Could you go home with me and make sobering soup for me?”
“No.”
Cordelia refused, and at the same time, she tried to withdraw her hand but failed.
Elijah lowered his head and looked at her intently. “Do you still want a divorce?”
“Mr. Hansen, do you still think I’ve been joking with you?” Cordelia frowned at him.
“Divorce is possible, but not right now. I have already told you
the reason.”
Elijah looked at her meaningfully. His implication was self-evident.
“A sobering soup, right?” Cordelia suddenly withdrew her hand. “I’ll ask a delivery person to send it to
you.”
returned to the private roof in
Elijah watched her figure disappear, and his eyes dimmed with a hint of sadness.
He called his assistant over and ordered, “Go to investigate the individual information of the guest in
that private room.”
“Yes, Mr. Hansen.”
After dinner, Cordelia went back home.
She really cooked a pot of sobering soup and ordered a delivery service to send it to Elijah’s villa.
Twenty minutes later, Cordelia received a strange phone call from the deliveryman she had called just
now.
“Hello, Madam, I have finished sending your soup to Mr. Hansen, but he looks not well. He drank too
much and even vomited. He is currently sitting at the doorstep. What should I do?”
Cordelia became restless instantly.
Didn’t Elijah have household staff? How did it end up in such a messy situation?
She hesitated for a while but still decided to go to have a look.
This man had a reckless drinking habit that he drank without regard for his own safety.
In addition, his stomach was in poor condition, so if something
However, as she drove to the wedding villa and opened the door,
she saw Elijah sitting on the sofa with a woman in his arms.
From her perspective, it looked like both of them were kissing.
Cordelia was stunned.
