Chapter 73 Fair Competition

“I have to work overtime tonight. You go first. I'll come to you after I'mdone here, okay?” Cordelia said.

“Okay.” There was some reluctance in Elijah’s tone.

Cordelia didn't care about his moodiness. After chatting for a while, shehung up the phone.

When Cordelia finished her work and was about to pick up Elijah, shereceived a message from Imogen.

[Ben broke up with me]

Cordelia called Imogen and found out that she was also invited todinner by Jacob.

It seemed that they had broken up just now.

"Elissa has some ability. She flirted with Elijah all night. Ben's face wasugly,” Imogen said.

Her tone was calm, as if she was an outsider and was not affected bythe breakup at all.

“Does Elissa like Elijah?” Cordelia asked.

Imogen suddenly laughed. “Cordelia, will women only hook up withmen they like?"

Cordelia was silent, and she didn’t know what to say for a while."Anyway, come quickly. I'm going to leave,” Imogen urged.

“Okay,” Cordelia said.

After hanging up the phone, Cordelia immediately drove to the club.As soon as she entered the door, she saw a charming woman in a reddress whispering in Elijah’s car. She couldn't stop smiling, and Elijahalso smiled.

The two acted as if they were immersed in a world where only the twoof them were there.

Jacob came over with a wine glass and grabbed Cordelia’s wrist.“Cordelia, why do you come so late? Come, sit next to me.”

Cordelia knew that Jacob was a little reckless because of drinking, soshe reminded him, “I don't think it's appropriate.”

Jacob was good-looking, and after drinking, his face looked even morebewitching under the neon lights.

He smiled lightly. “Cordelia, we have been friends since we were young.It's fine.”

Cordelia smiled and felt helpless.

“Ever since my grandma met you, she has always told me that

you were so talented, and I should get engaged to you before theHansen family,” Jacob laughed as he spoke.

His smile was very charming.

Although he looked good, he was not Cordelia’s type.

After drinking, Jacob was more courageous than usual.

Normally, he wouldn't behave like this.

Cordelia asked, “Where are Imogen and Ben? Have you seen them?”Before Jacob could answer, someone interrupted and said, “They mightgo to a hotel to sleep together..."

Cordelia frowned didn't believe this.

She got up and wanted to leave, but Jacob held her back.

“Jacob, you're drunk,” Cordelia leaned over and warned him in a lowvoice.

Suddenly, her other wrist was grabbed by someone, and with strongpull, she was pulled into his arms.

A solemn voice came from above her head. “Jacob, you are going toofar”

Jacob smiled and walked to Elijah. “Elijah, who is going too far? Weagreed on fair competition, but you took advantage of my

study abroad to snatch Cordelia away.

“Elijah, tell me, who is going too far?”

The people present were surprised.

Even Cordelia was stunned.

What was Jacob talking about? Why couldn't she understand it?
