Chapter 377


    While there was no emotion in the Messenger messages Cordelia sent to Brenda and Tristi, she was


    certainly in a foul mood.


    She didn''t want Ronan to know she had cried and gotten sick over him. After all, he seemed to care so


    little about her and was already rolling in the hay with someone else barely a month after her departure.


    If she cried over him, wouldn''t that make her appear too emotionally invested, or too hung up on him?


    Thankfully, she was overseas, and Ronan remained blissfully ignorant of her thoughts and feelings.


    If Ronan''s "gift" to Cordelia after a month of separation was sleeping with someone else, wasn’t it only


    right for Cordelia to reciprocate with a gift of her own?


    Cordelia was distracted by thoughts of Ronan during ss the next day and found it hard to keep up


    with the already challenging material.


    The task set by the professor was to write an essay on the Capital Asset Pricing Model, a topic filled


    withplex terminology.


    She snapped a picture of the chalkboard filled with these terms and their exnations. She made a


    coge for a Facebook post with notes from her previous readings and a caption stating her


    determination to pull an all-nighter toplete the essay.


    Cordelia wasn''t one to frequently post on Facebook.


    The academic nature of this post was palpable, showcasing her diligence and dedication towards her


    studies. The post garnered a plethora of likes.


    These likes were not out of courtesy for Ronan, but genuine admiration. After all, in this day and age,


    those who buried their heads in academia were few and far between. Cordelia''s dedication, especially


    as a woman and a mother returning to academia, was truly inspiring.


    Emerson liked her post and left ament, filled with thumbs-up emojis and a sincere word of

    admiration.


    Deanna, ever sarcastic and mocking,mented. [Oh, ying the female schr, are we? Careful,


    schrs make for old maids!]


    The subtext of Deanna''sment was clear – Cordelia would have a hard time remarrying, let alone


    getting back with Ronan.


    Brooklynmented. [What on earth is all this? It''s all Greek to me. I can''t understand a single word.]


    Edwin also left ament. [Impressive! I feel so dumb.]


    From his office, Ronan observed the flood ofments with a cold gaze. Clearly, Cordelia''s Facebook


    post had garnered quite the attention and won over many. He didn''t know if she had seen the news


    about him and Tabitha.


    If she did know and remained so aloof, it meant she truly didn''t care about him and was only concerned


    with her studies. Even if she had heard about the scandal, she probably wouldn''t care. After all, a


    woman so engrossed in her schrly pursuits wouldn''t have time for gossip, much less sordid affairs.


    She was the epitome of a virtuous woman, keeping her ears closed to worldly matters, and her mind


    focused on her books. No scandal of Ronan’s could shake her.


    The difference between her and Ronan was ringly clear.


    She didn’t care about him, not in the slightest! How infuriating!


    Jamie also left ament on Cordelia’s Facebook post, earnestly outlining the potential arguments for


    her essay and rmending numerous books.


    [Cordelia, once you’ve gone through these books, you should have no problem with your essay,] Jamie
