One Night Surprise

Chapter 364 Afraid You’ll Be Kidnapped

When he heard this, Elijah raised his head. After a few seconds of silence, he asked, “If I asked you to stay, would you consider staying?”

Courtney froze.

“You can’t keep a person who wants to leave from leaving.” Elijah narrowed his eyes. “Since I already know the outcome, there’s no point to keep trying.”

His remark left Courtney at a loss for words. Having been placed in an unusual position, she could no longer speak for Lilian.

This was Elijah’s character. He always spoke and did things in a straightforward manner, never dawdling.

“You’re making me feel very pressured. I feel as if I had cheated on my marriage.” Courtney looked at him. “You’re not going to say that I cheated in court, right?”

“Didn’t you?” Elijah stared at her, inexplicably seeming innocent.

“Hey…” Courtney sucked in a breath of cold air. “Don’t joke about this…”

“Miss, your dish.”

The waiter brought her the spicy beef soup in a deep dish plate. Looking at the deep porcelain plate in front of her, which was bigger than her face, Courtney glanced at Elijah, then both of them burst out laughing.

“After submitting the divorce application, there will be a six-month review period. If there are no problems, you’ll have to come back for the court hearing.”

“Okay.”

While Courtney and Elijah were at the restaurant having a friendly talk about their divorce, Gale was in the therapy center, looking worried because of his concern for his good friend’s relationship.

Cameron only needed to ask a few questions to pry all the thoughts in his mind.

“So, you’ve been acting so suspiciously the past two days because you’ve been thinking of this? You think Elijah is using my illness and the divorce to hold Courtney back so that she wouldn’t leave so easily?”

“That is indeed what he’s doing. Otherwise, why would he ask the doctor to extend your treatment time?”
