Wake Up! You’re My Ex Now (Cordelia) novel Chapter 143

"Indeed, I won't hide it. Before getting married, I had fantasies about marriage. I was no longer alone, and there would be a man to share a house with me," Cordelia confessed.

"We would eat and live together, work together, watch TV together, and sleep in the same bed together.

"Because it was an arranged marriage, we might not have been familiar at the beginning. But I believe that with time, I would win his heart with my sincerity.

"However, imagination is rich, and reality always brings unexpected challenges.

"Elijah, I've tried. I've tried for a long time, but I'm tired now. I'm sorry..."

Tears streamed down Cordelia's face before she could realize that she was crying.

She had finally said it.

She had finally said what had been hidden within her heart!

Without waiting for her to collect her emotions, Elijah had already embraced her.

"I didn't bring any tissues, so I'll just use my clothes to wipe your tears."

The man's voice was gentle and light, with a hint of caution, as if he was afraid of startling her.

Cordelia cried in his arms, and in no time, she had wet his front.

"I'm sorry, Cordelia. It's my fault," Elijah said, knowing that at that moment, whatever he said was useless.

Three years had passed.

In these three years, he knew exactly how he had treated Cordelia.

Because of his resistance to this marriage, he had silently rebelled by mistreating his marriage partner. Looking back now, he knew he was a scumbag.

Then, he discovered Cordelia's secret.

It turned out that she had always kept another man in her heart!

This made him even less inclined to treat her well.
