The Contracted Ever After novel Chapter 76

About an hour later, Cordelia came up from downstairs to find Ronan already in bed, reading.

She sat down at the computer and looked through the content Ronan had translated. Even though she didn't understand it, it seemed detailed.

What surprised Cordelia was the name at the end of the German resume: Ethan.

"Ethan? Who's that?" Cordelia asked Ronan.

"Did I write Ethan?"

"Forgot already?" Cordelia pointed at the name on the computer screen for Ronan to see.

"Don't sweat it; leave it like that."

Cordelia was a tad confused. She figured that Ethan might be an alias for Ronan. Despite him saying that she was not qualified to apply for the Audit Department and that he wouldn't help, he still put his name at the end of the German resume.

With a recommendation from the president of Lumos Enterprises, the other company would likely take Cordelia seriously.

Her heart swelled with gratitude. Ronan always helped her when she least expected it.

How sad would she be when their marriage of convenience ended one day?

What would she do when he married Deanna?

Cordelia checked the resume one last time before sending it off to the HR department.

She made up her mind. She would tell Jamie that she wasn't planning on working for his company. Even if she couldn't work in the Audit Department, she shouldn't have other plans considering how Ronan treated her.

After they had gone to bed, Cordelia laid her head on Ronan's chest, not saying a word, her eyes slightly moist.

"Don't flatter yourself; I sign off on all my foreign materials to avoid them being plagiarized." Ronan mentioned nonchalantly.

Cordelia fell silent.

Why was he like this? He always had to ruin her sentimental moments.

Annoyed, Cordelia picked up her phone and changed his nickname to “Junie.”

Ronan glanced at it.

"I’m no longer John Doe?" Ronan asked casually.

"Yep, you have a name now. What's my nickname on your phone?" Cordelia asked suddenly.

She had never seen Ronan's phone all this time.

"Jane Doe." Ronan replied.

Cordelia got mad. Why did he always have to one-up her?

She wrapped herself in the blanket, turning her back to Ronan to sleep.
