Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 169

Cordelia had eyes like a hawk, and she never forgot a single detail, be it something she yearned for or something she wished to forget. It was only last night, while horsing around with Merry, that she realized how much fun they could have with their playful banter.

But it was in that fleeting moment that she’d memorized Merry’s body. That was why, the instant she saw that photo, she instinctively saved it to her phone.

But if the girl in the photo wasn’t Merry, then who could it be?

Could it be doctored?

That was what she pondered as she followed Merry and her group, catching up and asking her, “Think hard, Merry. What were you doing when the picture was taken?”

Cordelia’s question was overheard by Yates, who was tagging along. His eyes widened in disbelief at her words.

Wasn’t Cordelia just making things harder for Merry?

Sure enough, Merry’s eyes flickered with conflict and fear. She began to shake her head, about to speak, when Cordelia pressed on, “What pose were you in when the picture was taken?”

Yates usually went along with whatever Cordelia said, rarely objecting. But at this moment, he almost couldn’t help himself. Cordelia was so headstrong, and she probably didn’t realize how painful it could be for Merry to revisit such a painful memory.

However, before he could say anything, Merry seemed to snap out of her daze.

Cordelia nodded in acknowledgment.

Merry, confused, said, “But if it’s not mine, what’s going on with this photo? Is it Photoshopped? But why would someone do that?”
