His embrace was still warm, and his clothes smelled the same as before, but this embrace no longer belonged to her.
Cordell could feel her nervousness. He looked down at her and pursed his lips. In the end, he did not say anything.
This time, the investment in the construction of the resort was huge. Not only were there vacation villas, hot springs, Lake Cui, horse farms, ecological agriculture, and many observation platforms, but there were also primitive wild experiences. The guest rooms were arranged in the leisure villa.
The celebration was held in the banquet hall on the first floor of the leisure villa. Stacy stood outside the banquet hall and looked around. He called Cordell many times, but no one answered.
From afar, she saw Cordell carrying Elaine and walking towards them quickly.
When Elaine saw Stacy walking towards them, she panicked. In order not to let others see her guilty conscience, she pretended to be calm and said, “My sister is here. Let me down.“Cordell frowned slightly, but he still did as she said. He bent down slightly and put her down, holding her arm with one hand.

As a normal woman, at this moment, her husband was hugging another woman. Stacy should be asking if there was anything bad between the two of them, but she did not.
She glanced at Cordell and then at Elaine. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Elaine forced a smile with difficulty. He felt uneasy and pretended to be calm. “Sister, I sprained my ankle, so Brother–in–law is preparing to carry me back to the guest room.”
One sentence answered Stacy’s question and explained why Cordell was hugging her. It could be considered an indirect explanation.
When Stacy heard that she had sprained her ankle, he said in a reproachful tone, “You don’t even make me worry when you walk. Is your injury serious?“Seeing that Stacy was not angry, she heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s fine.”
Stacy looked at Cordell. “Cordell, send Elaine to the guest room. I’ll go look for medicine in the car.”
Elaine was slightly stunned. She glanced at Cordell’s handsome face from the corner of her eye and wanted to reject him, but Stacy did not think that there was anything wrong with it. If she rejected him, it would make people feel guilty.
Cordell nodded indifferently.

The first floor of the villa was a banquet hall, the second floor was a restaurant, the third floor was a leisure club, and the other floors were guest rooms.
There was no need to pass through the banquet hall on the first floor to reach the guest room. There was an elevator outside the banquet hall. Cordell carried Elaine to the elevator. After taking two steps, he stopped and looked back at Mamie, who was about to return to the banquet hall.
“Ms. Howard, thank you for today.”
His sudden thanks stunned Mamie for a moment. Then, he smiled and said, “You’re welcome. I’m good friends with Elaine. This is what I should do.”
Cordell nodded and carried Elaine to the elevator.
Elaine pressed the button to open the door. The elevator door opened. Cordell entered. Elaine pressed the button to close the door again.
The elevator closed and slowly rose. In the elevator, Cordell carried her all the way. After such a long walk, he was not out of breath at all. She said in a low voice, “Put me down. Rest for a while.”
Hearing this, Cordell looked at her. “You’re too thin. You haven’t grown much all these years.”

His unintentional words made the atmosphere in the elevator tense up.
In the past…
Such a beautiful word was now a taboo for the two of them.
For a moment, they both fell silent. In the small space, it was as if they could hear each other breathing. Suddenly, Cordell broke their silence. He said, “Elaine, do you hate me all these years?”
Did she hate him?
She probably didn’t hate him.
How could she hate a man she loved with all her heart in her best years?
How could she bear to hate him?
