The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan)

Chapter 292

The following morning, Ronan got up early and left. Janice had packed a lunch for Cordelia to take with

her in the afternoon.

"Why not make it for both of us in the future, just one more serving," Cordelia suggested to Janice.

"Sure," Janice agreed, pleased to see Cordelia in a better mood.

Since Cordelia was heading to Lumos Enterprises, a place where Ronan held considerable sway,

Janice didn't accompany her.

"Cordelia, I'm glad you're here. Look at all these files on my desk, they're driving me crazy. We need to

get through them quickly. When you get tired, just take a break," Milana exclaimed.

"Alright," Cordelia responded calmly, picking up the first file. She was experienced in this sort of work,

handling it with ease. Thanks to Cordelia, Milana's workload was progressing much quicker than

anticipated.

At three in the afternoon, Cordelia decided to take a break. She hadn't moved from her desk all day

and was feeling a bit uncomfortable. She didn't stray far, heading to the yoga studio to stretch her

muscles.

Just as she was about to change into her yoga outfit, Kitty spoke up, "Cordelia, I got you a new set.

Have a look."

With that, Kitty presented a loose-fitting yoga outfit. Though it was stylish and chic, it was also very

conservative, covering her from head to toe. Moreover, it was so loose that it would undoubtedly hinder

her movements, making her look clumsy.

Cordelia was certain that someone as professional as Kitty would definitely not buy such yoga attire,

and asking her to change into yoga clothing all of a sudden would seem quite abrupt, wouldn't it?

"Did he ask you to buy this?" Cordelia recalled that yesterday, Ronan had probably gone to Wyatt's

office and seen her practicing yoga.

Kitty looked somewhat awkward, "Well, you know men. They don't like their women to be seen by

others. Try to understand Mr. Evans' feelings."

Though Cordelia didn't say anything, she was displeased. Ronan's possessiveness was manifesting

again, and she didn't appreciate his interference.

"I won't be practicing today," Cordelia declared, her mood spoiled. She returned to the Audit

Department to continue her work.

Ronan's overbearing nature had sparked her rebellious streak. As she realized her cup was empty,

Cordelia decided to order some soda. The minimum order was for two cups, so she ordered two.

She had always loved soda but after learning that it wasn't healthy for her unborn child, she had

controlled her cravings. But now, she wanted to let go.

Just like she had intentionally fallen asleep in the conference room to upset him, she was now going to

drink soda in front of him. Most importantly, she was going to use this to test him, to see if he knew he’s

the father of the kids.

The delivery couldn't be made to her floor, so she was called downstairs to collect it.

"Mrs. Evans, you're pregnant. You shouldn't be drinking soda," the receptionist warned her.

"It's fine," Cordelia replied defiantly.

Back in the Audit Department, she handed one of the cups to Milana.

"I'm too old for this stuff, not like you young girls. Cordelia, you shouldn't be drinking this either. The

baby's health is important," Milana advised.

"I'll just have a little bit," Cordelia pinched her fingers, indicating that it was indeed "just a little bit."

"Be careful, Mr. Evans might not be happy and may give you a hard time," Milana whispered to

Cordelia.

Cordelia was unperturbed. She wanted to test him, to see if he would indeed give her a hard time.

She had only a couple of sips, just enough to satiate her craving.

With a cup and a half of soda left, she decided to take it to the car and let him see.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
