Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 68

In the classroom.

Cordelia was scrolling through the “Pioneers Group chat when Merry kept rambling on, “Can you believe my idol got a side chick now? Who is this mystery woman? Oh my god, he dropped a cool 200 thousand dollars on a bag! That lucky lady got spoiled rotten by my man… Lia, I just can’t wrap my head around it. My ideal husband’s getting a girlfriend! But I know I gotta be a rational fan. I should be crying tears of joy for him. Do you think his girl is an actress or just some girl next door?”

Cordelia was taken aback.

200 thousand dollars on a bag? Little Parrot must’ve mistaken the number.

Little Parrot was about to continue her tirade when class started. She might have kept going if it were others‘ lesson, but when Latham walked in, Little Parrot turned back around and Cordelia finally had some peace and

quiet.

But barely five minutes later, a note landed on Cordelia’s desk.

She unfolded it to read, “Lia, who’s this vixen who’s bewitched my idol?”

Cordelia was at a loss for words.

That was how Merry harassed her for an entire class. As soon as Latham left the room, Merry spun around, ready to speak, but Cordelia, for once, beat her to it, “It’s not a girlfriend, it’s his mom.”

Merry paused, dumbfounded.

Cordelia let out a breath, relieved to get a word in before Merry could continue, “The bag was a gift for his

mom, not some vixen.”

Merry blinked, dubious, “How do you know that?”

Cordelia replied earnestly, “He said so.”

Merry stared at her, sizing her up before finally cracking a smile, “Lia, I’m touched, you’ve finally learned how to

comfort someone!”

Cordelia was speechless.

“Even though I know you’re just trying to make me feel better, it still means a lot. But that’s not what I wanted to talk about. I’ve been thinking all lesson, my idol is a top celeb back home, his Twitter drama will break the internet for days! Your issue’s gonna be totally buried!”
