The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan)

Chapter 258

Ronan flicked off the light, switched on the dim bedside lamp, and began undressing Cordelia.

Cordelia remained silent, her body trembling until she was completely bare.

Cordelia used to have a perfectly sculpted body, with curves in all the right places. Now, her figure was

different, yet mysteriously alluring. Ronan swallowed hard, then turned off the light. It had been a while

since he had sex with Cordelia, and he was experiencing a certain restlessness, like that of a

honeymooner.

Cordelia remained silent throughout. Afterwards, she was drenched in sweat, having been on edge the

entire time. She was worried about startling the baby, and concerned about his satisfaction. In short,

she was on pins and needles.

Cordelia fell into a deep sleep, while Ronan gently touched her belly from behind.

The next day, Ronan was woken by the ringing of Cordelia's cell phone. She was still sleeping. He took

her phone and saw it was Jamie calling. He turned Cordelia's phone to silent, letting the ringing

continue until it stopped. Then, he saw that Jamie had messaged Cordelia on Facebook. [Are you up?

I'm near your place, can I swing by?]

After a moment of thought, Ronan replied, [Sure.]

Then, Ronan leaned against the headboard, perusing Cordelia's phone. She and Jamie had quite a lot

of contact. But he couldn't find anything suspicious, just messages from when they'd initially met in

California, arranged to have dinner. Jamie tried to hang out with Cordelia, but she was always holed up

in the library, not answering his messages, so there wasn't much communication.

Just then, an email arrived on Cordelia's phone. Ronan opened it and saw it was an offer from UC

Davis. Ronan glanced at Cordelia and sarcastically thought, “What a diligent student, carrying twins

and sleeping next to him, yet her heart was already across the ocean.” He hadn't realized her studious

disposition.

Cordelia had applied for admission next January, a year from now. Ronan wasn't sure what her plan

was, whether she intended to move with Jamie and the kids or leave the kids at home and go alone.

He deleted her offer email and cleared it from the trash, leaving no trace.

Not long after, the doorbell rang. Ronan, bare-chested, went to open the door. When he saw Jamie

standing at the door, he ignored him, walked back to Cordelia's bedroom, and closed the door.

Jamie had expected Cordelia to open the door for him, not Ronan. He stood at the entrance of

Cordelia's bedroom, his brain empty. Ronan went into Cordelia's bedroom. Were they sleeping together Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

again?

They were sleeping together again…

Ronan gave Cordelia's butt a little push, but she didn't wake up. He then started gently pinching

Cordelia's ear. "Someone's here for you."

Still half-asleep, Cordelia mumbled, "Who's looking for me?"

"Jamie."

Cordelia's eyes snapped open instantly, and she awkwardly sat up in bed. She was still completely

naked, her clothes strewn all over the floor.

She struggled to reached for them, but she was definitely not going to ask Ronan for help.

Ronan picked up her clothes and laid them on the bed, then he tilted up Cordelia's chin. "When you

see him, know what to say and what not to say, got it?"

Cordelia swatted his hand away. "I don't get it."
