    Chapter 177 Cut Loss in Time


    Cordelia didn''t change her mind. She looked calm and didn''t say a word.


    "If you are afraid of my grandfather, I promise I won''t let him hurt you," Elijah said firmly.


    Cordelia''s eyes flickered, and she looked at Elijah, who had a cold side face.


    After a long time, she said, "But Elijah, I don''t want to risk my life anymore."


    Elijah was stunned, with deep sorrow gradually overflowing from his eyes.


    "I''m sorry. You may think I''m a coward, but this is who I am. I have paid a terrible price, and I don''t want


    to pay more. I hope you can understand."


    She had endured all the misfortunes by herself, and no one could rece her.


    She had paid the price for her ridiculous first love, so she thought it would be the wisest choice to stop


    the loss in time.


    Elijah asked with a frown, "So, you still don''t think that car ident was an ident, do you?"


    Until now, there was still no clue that Cordelia''s car ident was nned by someone.


    They couldn''t even find the proof, so this reason couldn''t convince Elijah.


    Cordelia gave him a cold look and said, "Elijah, I thought you were a sensible person."


    She didn''t understand why he had to mention the suffering she just experienced at this time and


    challenge her patience.


    Elijah was at a loss for words for a moment.


    He knew he couldn''t convince a woman who was determined to leave him.


    It was his wishful thinking.


    At this time, a staff member invited them in.


    They had gone through the procedures once, so the processing speed was very fast.


    But there was no waiting period this time.


    Gideon had arranged everything a long time ago. It seemed he was desperate to let them divorce.


    After getting the divorce certificate, Cordelia was relieved.


    She stood up and walked quickly towards the door.


    Elijah stared nkly at the divorce certificate, feeling its existence was a mock for him.

    "Cordelia!"


    Elijah chased her into the corridor and hugged her tightly to his chest.


    "Cordelia, you are the cruellest woman in the world!"


    Cordelia was distressed when looking at his red eyes.


    Now, she believed he did have some dependence on her.


    Otherwise, there was no need for him to continue pretending since he had gotten the divorce


    certificate.


    He might have some feelings for her, but not too much.


    At least, it was not worth Cordelia to continue to risk her life with him.


    "Elijah, do you still remember you once went to Venco Hill in the summer four years ago?"


    Elijah was taken aback for a moment. His eyes froze immediately, and he fell into memories.


    "Four years ago..."


    He seemed to remember that he had been there, and Ben was with him.


    "We didn''t seem to know each other four years ago. How did you know? Did Ben tell you?" Elijah


    asked.


    Cordelia smiled faintly. "Yes, we didn''t know each other at that time. To be exact, you didn''t know me,


    but I knew you."


    Elijah was stunned.


    "When did you know me? Why have you never told me?" Elijah came back to his senses, a little


    excited.


    Cordelia didn''t answer his question.


    She pursed her lips and said with a bit of sadness, "Yes, you didn''t even know me, but you took my first


    kiss away that night. You are too frivolous, Elijah."


    Elijah widened his eyes in shock.


    Cordelia''s words made him dizzy and feel unreal.


    "So, I wasn''t dreaming that night? It was you!"
