Chapter 58 Share the Table

Imogen compiled Cordelia’s video and posted it on major videoplatforms in the past few days. The traffic had brought her a lot ofincome.

That night, Imogen invited Cordelia to a meal, and they discussed theirideas for the next step.

“Cordelia?”

As soon as Lamia entered the restaurant, she saw Cordelia from adistance and immediately called her loudly.

Cordelia was a little surprised and looked up. She saw Lamia followthree men into the restaurant, who were Elijah, Ben, and Jacob.

“Jacob is back?” Imogen said in a low voice.

Cordelia didn’t know Jacob but still nodded to him.

Jacob was very handsome and had delicate facial features.

Seeing Jacob shaking hands with Cordelia and Imogen, Lamia mutteredunhappily, “We're not at a negotiating table. Why did you make it soofficial?”

Jacob immediately proposed to share the table. Cordelia and Imogenlooked at each other. They were a little unhappy, but they felt tooembarrassed to refuse.

Lamia asked cautiously, “Cordelia, have you and your friend alreadyordered?”

Cordelia said with a smile, “Yeah, the food should be served soon, so wedon't want to disturb your party.”

Elijah said flatly, “It's okay. I'll ask the waiter to replace a bigger table. Mytreat.”

Cordelia and Imogen were both speechless.

They didn't want to have a meal with Elijah and the others at all.

Since Elijah had decided, Lamia couldn't say anything else.

She followed behind unwillingly and watched Cordelia and Imogenvigilantly as if she were afraid they would communicate with Jacob toomuch.

After they entered the box, Cordelia and Imogen found two seats nextto each other.

Then, Elijah and Ben sat on their sides.

“The driver is outside. You can drink if you want,” Elijah said softly.Lamia looked at Elijah, widening her eyes. “Elijah, isn't Cordelia trying toget pregnant? How can she drink?”

After Lamia spoke, the whole room suddenly fell into silence.Cordelia’s face was gloomy, and she looked at Lamia coldly.

What do you look at me like that? I didn't say anything wrong!” Lamiawas used to being arrogant and always thought she was superior toother women.

Hearing this, Elijah said casually, “She's my wife. It's none of yourbusiness.”

“Elijah...” Lamia wanted to retort but stopped speaking when Elijah gaveher a look.

Imogen was envious and whispered to Cordelia, “Your husband is somanly!”

Cordelia just smiled and didn't speak.

She was actually a little surprised. After all, when Lamia used to speakwithout thinking in public, Elijah never stopped her.

What happened? That was not like him today.

Even though Elijah was abnormal, Cordelia was still calm. She wouldn'tbe touched just because he defended her.

His attitude towards her always depended on his mood. Especiallyrecently, he often had mood swings. She didn't want her mood to beaffected by his attitude as it was very

uncomfortable.

Later, during their conversation, Cordelia learned Jacob had justreturned from studying abroad. He had known Elijah and Ben for a longtime, and they had a very good relationship.

As for Lamia, she was obviously fascinated by Jacob.

Suddenly, Cordelia lel

She dodged subconsciously, but it kept chasing her.

When she realized it was Elijah who was teasing her under the table,she gave him a glare.

Cordelia couldn't believe he dared to tease her in public.

What was crazier was that he touched her thigh directly through

her skirt.
