    Chapter 333 In My Eyes


    Cordelia saved a video released by the Hansen Group on her phone.


    She watched it repeatedly, pondering Elijah''s intentions in taking this move.


    She had to admit that he was indeed an excellent businessman, skilled in creating a buzz.


    Because of this press conference, the stock price of the Hansen Group skyrocketed instantly.


    His sessful and dedicated CEO image attracted the attention of arge number of shareholders.


    "Life is like a drama. It all depends on acting."


    She murmured softly while her fingers clicked on the video to rey it.


    An unexpected guest arrived at the vi halfway up the mountain in the evening.


    The person looked weary, with swollen eyes, loosely tied hair, and an overall lifeless demeanor.


    "Ms. re Price, you are disturbing me," Cordelia said unceremoniously.


    "Evie, I''m really at the end of my rope. Please, can you show me a way out? I''m willing to do anything


    as long as Mr. Hansen is willing to spare me," re said, tears streaming down her face.


    "You''re quite resourceful. Do you think if I plead for you, Elijah will go easy on you?" Cordelia looked at


    her with cold eyes. "But I don''t need to beg for you, and I won''t."


    "Evie..."


    re''s vulnerable appearance was somewhat pitiable, which was why Elijah had shown leniency to


    her in the first ce.


    If it weren''t for re''s past actions that Cordelia found distasteful, she might have actually helped


    re.


    "Ms. re Price, where did you make your biggest mistake?" Cordelia suddenly asked.


    "What?" re looked puzzled.


    "Your stupid kindness led you astray," Cordelia said firmly.


    re said, "So, should I not be kind? Should I be ruthless?"


    Cordelia smiled and shook her head. "Kindness is not wrong, but you can''t both act like a saint and


    behave otherwise. That''s where you went terribly wrong."


    "I didn''t!" re immediately retorted.


    Cordeliapletely ignored her and continued, "You wanted to be Elijah''s fiancée and wanted me to


    understand and bless you. Wasn''t that asking for too much?"


    Moreover, Cordelia hadn''t done anything wrong. It had been re and her sister Laura who had

    plotted everything.


    It was time to settle the score, but re seemed to be backing down and getting scared.


    "Ms. re Price, if I were you, I would pack my bags and leave immediately. You studied medicine to


    save lives, not to chase after a rich husband, right?"


    Cordelia''s words hit re hard.


    She had never imagined marrying into a wealthy family before.


    But because of Elijah, she had started to dream.


    She was tired of an ordinary life and wanted to enter high society, to enjoy being admired and envied


    by others.


    Unfortunately, it had all been a pipe dream.


    Now that the dream had shattered, did she have to leave town and continue living a difficult life?


    She refused to ept it!


    "Evie, it turns out you only know how to speak coldly. You live in a mansion, enjoying wealth and glory.


    Of course, you can look down on others. But I see you''re nothing special!"


    Cordelia shrugged off re''s desperate attempts, knowing it was futile.


    At this moment, Cordelia saw Elijah walk in.
