The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan)

Chapter 160

Cordelia was on the bus, feeling super ticked off. She and Jamie had been used by Samantha once

again.

When she got home, her mom wasn't there, but the lights were on. Cordelia called out for her mom

several times, but there was no response.

Pushing open the door to her room, she found Ronan sitting on her chair. Cordelia thought, “He

probably knows what happened today.”

But she didn't see his car downstairs. Did he hide it somewhere?

His driving speed was certainly faster than her taking the bus. Looked like he came to give Cordelia a

surprise attack tonight.

She was so scared that she wanted to close the door and run, but Ronan caught her and threw her

onto the bed. He was on top of Cordelia.

"What did you guys do?" he coldly asked Cordelia.

"Where's my mom?"

"I'm asking you what you guys did that night!" he shouted, his hands tightly gripping Cordelia's chin.

"I'm asking you where my mom is?" Cordelia raised her voice.

She was really worried about her mom, almost like fire about to spew from her eyes. Considering

Ronan's ruthlessness, she started worrying, would he hurt her mom?

"What did you two go to the hotel for?"

"That's none of your business!" Cordelia turned her head away in anger, ignoring Ronan.

Maybe his possessiveness was acting up again. Ronan undressed Cordelia and began to enter her.

Cordelia fought back fiercely, scratching his back, biting his neck, biting his lips. Afterwards, they were

both exhausted, and Ronan was shirtless, standing in front of the mirror in Cordelia's room, looking at

his back and neck.

"Kitten, you really know how to scratch!" he gritted his teeth.

Cordelia was aching all over and couldn't move. She lay on the bed, gasping for air and squinting her

eyes to rest. "Where's my mom?" Cordelia asked again.

"Is that the only sentence you know how to say?" Ronan said in annoyance.

Cordelia closed her eyes disdainfully, not saying a word.

Ronan was buckling his belt. He turned to Cordelia, gripping her chin again, his tone softer than before,

"Did you sleep with him?"

Cordelia kept her eyes shut. He was always worried about this, afraid that his woman was taken by © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

someone else. She tried to turn her head away, but Ronan forced it back.

"Did you sleep with him?" he asked again. Actually, he already tested her, and he thought they

probably didn't.

"You tell me, if a man and a woman go to a hotel room together, do you think we slept together or just

had a chat?" Cordelia opened her eyes, glaring at him. "Where's my mom?"

It was already past 10 p.m., and her mom still hadn't come back. Normally at this time, her mom should

be sleeping. Cordelia started to worry.

"You're such a liar! Don't you know your nose will grow longer if you lie?" Ronan let go of Cordelia's

chin.

"Where is my mom!" Cordelia sat up angrily on the bed.

The blanket slipped to her chest, revealing her delicate skin. But she didn't care.

Then, the sound of the door lock was heard. Cordelia heard her mom talking, and she knew her mom

was back.

"Mom, where were you?" Cordelia called out loudly from her room.

"Ronan booked a restaurant for us. The driver drove us there for dinner, and he even bought me

clothes I didn't really need..." Her mom sounded happy, yet a bit uneasy.

So Ronan's car wasn't there because the driver had taken it. Cordelia glared at Ronan, her heart finally

at ease. "You're so cunning!"

"You'd better pray my wounds heal by tomorrow, or else, you're in trouble," Ronan said and then left.

Cordelia heard him talking with her mom in the living room, but she couldn't make out what they were

saying. Then, she fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, she found herself lying in Ronan's arms. Cordelia immediately turned

around, as if touching a plague. But she was stopped by him, and he held her even tighter.

Their bodies were close, his body heat instantly ignited Cordelia.

This time, she wouldn’t forgive Ronan anymore. Cordelia increasingly felt that Ronan was an enigma,

and she couldn't see his bottom line.

Maybe in his mind, he thought that because he was rich, he could do whatever he wanted. It was easy

for him to make Jamie and Manda do such a thing.

Also, he misunderstood what Cordelia said in the office last time. What was that anyway?

Because of Jamie, they had a dispute last time. Cordelia went to save him, indeed out of instinct. But

this time, Cordelia decided, she wouldn’t do it again.
