Chapter 297 I'm Tired of Being Lonely

Until the door was closed, Eason slowly opened his eyes.

He glanced gently at the doorway and then closed his eyes again,comfortably drifting back to sleep.

By the time Cordelia returned from her morning run, Eason was alreadyup.

She handed Eason the breakfast she bought and asked, "Eason, whendid you come back last night?"

"Around three o'clock. I was worried you wouldn't feel comfortable in adifferent place, so I came back after the social event to check on you.Seeing your door closed, I knew you were sleeping well, so I feltrelieved.”

As Eason spoke, he sat down at the dining table and enjoyed thebreakfast Cordelia brought back.

He enjoyed being with Cordelia like this.

If Cordelia was willing, he thought he could spend his life guarding her."You should go back to the master bedroom to sleep. You'll catch acold on the couch,” Cordelia reproached softly.

“I'm used to it."

Eason had gotten used to living alone. When he had time, he wouldpay attention to details, but if he was busy, he would just make do.Cordelia thought for a moment and said, "Eason, I won't disturb you fortoo long. Once Sir Gudwin's condition stabilizes, I will transfer histreatment to Lidio, who is in Grant City."

Eason casually replied, "It's nothing. I'd like you to be here. Actually, I'mtired of being lonely too.”

"You should replace a girlfriend,” Cordelia said.

"Compared to starting a relationship with an unfamiliar woman andgradually getting to know each other, I think taking care of you wouldbe simpler," Eason said with a faint smile.

"I can take care of myself and live well without anyone's help.”

Cordelia immediately denied it, afraid that she might have delayedEason's marriage life.

Eason's eyes darkened, and he didn't say anything more, focusing onhis breakfast.

After a while, Adam called.

"Eason, do you remember what I told you yesterday? Elijah turned outto be dishonest!"

Eason glanced at Cordelia, who was busy in the kitchen and then wentto the balcony. He asked in a deep voice, "What happened?”

"Last night, it was already midnight, and Elijah secretly went out tomeet his fiancée, and then the two of them went back to an apartmentthat's under his name. Such a hypocrite! Poor Cordelia, she likes him somuch! He's a scumbag!"

Adam said with an angry expression that seemed as though he wantedto beat Elijah up right away.

"Do you think we should tell Cordelia about this? I think we should!Otherwise, the whole world will know, and she'll be left in the dark!How pitiful!”

Listening to Adam's calm narration, Eason’s gaze grew cold.

After a long silence, he said, "Let Miss Lopez tell her. I can't bring myselfto say it."

"Alright!" Adam hung up the phone.

After Cordelia finished today's treatment for Jayden, she went toAdam's place to accompany Imogen as usual.

"Cordelia, are you okay?" Imogen asked with concern

Cordelia's gaze was indifferent, and her expression didn't change in theslightest. "Imogen, I've come to terms with it. I won't have any hope forhim anymore.”

Imogen shook her head helplessly. "As expected. Nothing canovercome distance. Even Elijah is no exception. He couldn't withstandloneliness after all.”

Cordelia smiled lightly, turned on her phone, entered the password,and handed it to Imogen.

"Please check the messages for me, Imogen. I don't want to look,"Cordelia said as she got up to cut fruit in the kitchen.

Imogen checked Cordelia's messages, her facial expressions full ofdrama.

"Oh my god, I can't take it anymore! Laura is such a scheming bitch! It'sbeyond tolerable!" Imogen suddenly couldn't help but curse.
