Chapter 204


    He''ll Be Tired of Me


    Imogen perked up immediately upon hearing this.


    "Cordelia, no matter what, there''s still hope for Elijah! He''s not a scumbag like Ben," she said.


    Cordelia looked at Imogen and asked cautiously, "Imogen, what''s your n?"


    Imogen replied, "What can I do? I''ll just go with the flow. I hope that eventually, when he gets tired of


    me, we can also part ways amicably. Just like you and Elijah did."


    Cordelia observed the hint of sadness in Imogen''s eyes and patted her hand tofort her.


    It was clear that Imogen still had feelings for Ben, but the uncertainties of reality had made her hesitant


    to invest in the rtionship any further.


    As people grew older, their solitude also grew stronger.


    Cordelia had learned to ept and even enjoy her solitude.


    Over dinner, when Cordelia was settling the bill, she unexpectedly ran into Elissa.


    Elissa had be a somewhat faded actress. And now, she seemed even more pretentious and


    arrogant than before.


    Cordelia couldn''t be bothered to pay her much attention and put on her sunsses.


    However, Elissa approached her, making the first move. "I heard you got divorced. Congrattions."


    Cordelia didn''t bother to nce at her and smiled. "Miss Flores, you really have a way with words. I


    really liked it when you congratted me."


    Elissa''s eyes widened. She felt that Cordelia was rather pleased about her divorce. But again, she


    might be pretending.


    Elissa sneered, "You''re just trying to save your dignity."


    Cordelia remained smiling. "Aren''t we all? Otherwise, why bother cosying for producers?"


    "You!" Elissa''s lips twitched, and her gaze turned malevolent. "Is it that bitch Imogen who told you?"


    "It seems like it was Ben who informed her." Cordelia refused to provide Elissa with any information she


    could exploit.


    At the mention of Ben''s name, Elissa''s expression contorted with anger.


    "Why are you all just standing there? Go beat her up!" Elissa was getting increasingly excited.


    Thest time, she hadn''t been able to get her hands on Cordelia. This time, she was determined to


    make her pay!


    Cordelia nced at the two bodyguards standing behind Elissa and immediately went on high alert,


    calcting the risks of getting into a fight.


    She knew she should shy away from a fight when necessary.

    However, in the next moment, one of the bodyguards spoke, "Miss Flores, this is not within our job


    description."


    Elissa was taken aback, but Cordelia couldn''t help but chuckle, "Elissa, you sure know how to keep


    things interesting."


    With that, Cordelia gracefully turned and left the scene.


    "Hey! You!"


    Just then, Elissa caught a glimpse of the people around recording her with their phones. To save her


    public image, she immediately fell silent and didn''t dare to make a fuss again.


    Cordelia exited the restaurant and found Imogen by the roadside, who was engrossed in a phone call


    while talking in a sweet voice.


    "Sure! I''ve been a good girl. Just a littleter, okay? Alright, Cordelia''sing out now. I''ll talk to you


    Cordelia teased Imogen, "If someone didn''t know better, they''d think you two were deeply in love."


    Imogen rolled her eyes and humphed, "I''ve already figured out this guy''s preferences. It''s easy to


    appease him, but sometimes, I just don''t want to. Why should I always have to cater to him?"


    Cordelia inquired, "So what''s the asion today? Why are you willing to indulge him?"


    Imogen said seriously, "Ben is getting engaged. He''s flying overseas next week to personally bring his


    almost-fiancée back."
