Chapter 1340


    Chapter 1340


    He was worried she’d shoulder all the me, beat herself up, and have a breakdown. So, when he


    wasn’t sure if he could hang on, he had to coldly push her away, make her hate him and feel disgusted


    with him.


    Only in this way, when his endgame rolled around, she wouldn’t feel pain, nor would she pin all the


    mistakes on herself.


    He knew her personality. She was super sensitive when it came to fidelity in marriage, so he roped her


    sister into a sham to deceive her. He knew, the moment Cornelia started to suspect his unfaithfulness,


    she’d definitely want a divorce.


    Sure enough, not long after he pulled this stunt, Cornelia came to him, coolly asking for a divorce. It


    was earlier than he’d expected.


    He knew, Cornelia’s heart wasn’t as calm as it seemed on the surface. And he knew, Cornelia would


    definitely feel pain and heartbreak.

    But he thought a one-time pain was better than enduring it constantly. And this pinch of pain was


    definitely lighter than losing a loved one. So, he chose to do it this way.


    For a whopping two hundred and three days, he didn’t see her. During these time, even though not


    seeing her, he kept tabs on everything happening to


    her.


    “Cornelia, Cornelia.” He murmured.


    His hands trembling, and he carefully pressed thern against theputer screen. It didn’t have any


    warmth, but his excitement was through the roof. She always told people that she didn’t have any


    special reactions during her pregnancy, that she ate and slept well.


    But he knew her pregnancy couldn’t be as easy as she made it sound. She was just used to not


    causing trouble for others, hence she told people her pregnancy was a breeze.


    In the surveince footage, Cornelia picked up an interesting book, sat by the window and read intently.


    She was lost in the world of the book, and an afternoon just passed like that.


    During this time, Goldie didn’t disturb her. Only the servants came in to refill her water a few times.


    At dinner, Goldie wanted to keep Cornelia for the meal. But Cornelia declined, saying her grandpa was


    waiting for her to have dinner at home.


    Then, Goldie insisted on bringing her home. After seeing Cornelia safely back, Goldie visibly breathed


    a sigh of relief.


    Once she got home, dinner was ready. Grandpa Augustine was waiting for her to eat.


    Cornelia sat down to eat with him. After a few bites, she put down her fork and knife, “Grandpa, I’m full.


    I’m going to rest.”


    Grandpa Augustine asked worriedly, “You’ve only had a little, you’re full already? Are you feeling


    unwell? Should I call a doctor for you?”


    Cornelia replied, “I ate a lot at Goldie’s at noon. She made me lots of desserts in the afternoon. I


    couldn’t control myself and ate too much.” Grandpa Augustine said, “Then you should take some rest.”


    Cornelia said, “Okay.”


    After going back to her room, she thought for a moment, picked up her phone, and prepared to send a


    message to Goldie.
