Chapter 5 After Elijah finished his work in the morning , Cooper came to the company for him . I bought some fruits and toys . Lets go visit Bobby together , said Cooper . Elijah nodded , and his phone on the table rang . Coopers attention was drawn to the sound of the ringtone and he reflexively looked over to see a new WhatsApp message . [ Do you miss me ? Wanna go play golf this afternoon ? ] The contact name was Josephine Wood . Cooper knew her . She was a high ranking female executive at Elijahs partner company and had taken an interest in Elijah . Elijah was also aware of it . He had used her interest in him to seal this cooperation . Cooper asked , Are you going ? I have no time for that . And its not right to do it . She insisted on getting close , I was just flirting with her , but thats all I have no intention of cheating . Thats not something a man should do , said Elijah . As they spoke , they walked out . Elijah chomped on a cig and lit it up . He was good looking , rich , outgoing , generous , and very popular with girls . Cooper turned to him . There will be many girls heartbroken if they hear that . The mention of Willow irritated Elijah . If it werent for Willow … He stopped halfway through his sentence . But Cooper could understand what was left unsaid . If it hadnt been for Willow using her child to marry Elijah , Elijah would still be sowing his wild oats . Cooper asked , Whats going on between you and Willow ? She cant educate Bobby well and shirks all responsibility onto others . She even disappears without a trace . If my mom knew , shed definitely regret pushing me into marriage with her . Elijah looked angry . Hasnt she come home yet ? Cooper was a little surprised . No , answered Elijah . Arent you going to try to coax her into coming back ? Elijah said , You know her . Do I need to waste my energy on her ? If she could really leave , would she still have a child to tie me down ? Cooper didnt respond . 1/5 12:53 Tue , 11 Mar Chapter 5 When they were in school , Elijah was very good to Willow . Back then , Willow was bright , lively , and fearless . 54 % She saw a group of punks surrounding a classmate outside school and charged at them without hesitation . As a result , she got stuck herself and almost got molested . That was the first time Cooper saw Elijah get angry . Elijah broke the leader of the punks nose and got disciplined . With a bruised face , he went to comfort Willow , saying he wasnt in pain and pretending to be a hero . After Willow left , he sneaked off to the infirmary to buy painkillers . From then on , wherever Willow went , Elijah protected her . By the time Willow went to college , no boy dared to confess his feelings to her because of Elijah . When Elijah started dating for the first time , his girlfriend was bothered by Willows presence , so Willow distanced herself from him . Elijah then caught Willow in the hallway and asked her the reason why she distanced herself from him . After finding out , he immediately dumped that girl . Later , he had girlfriends quickly . It was his own fault for being flirtatious . He broke up quickly because of Willows bad mood . The more willing he used to be to protect Willow , the more annoyed he was with her now . Cooper suggested , If you dont want to be with her , just get a divorce . Usually , Elijah would say impatiently and disgustedly , You think shell agree to divorce me ? But today , he was unusually silent . With a cold sneer , a vicious look appeared on his face . He stopped smoking and threw away the cigarette directly . Shes gone too far this time . Cooper was confused . Elijah sighed , Lets go to the hospital . Bobby is there . Willow doesnt care about him ; I have to care about him . Cooper knew that Sandra was taking care of Bobby in the hospital . He thought the scene in the hospital would be as Elijah had posted on Instagram , but unexpectedly , the ward was in disarray . A soup bowl was broken on the floor , and soup was spilled everywhere . The blanket seemed to be dirty and was thrown on the floor carelessly . Sandra was wiping Bobbys body . 2/5 Chapter 5 Adry arm and stomach were sided and Sandra said , Sorry , Adry 1 didnt mean to Modry pursed his lips and said nothing , tears welling up in his eyes . I know you didnt mean to . You dont have kids , so youre now very good at taking care of me … But can you be a little faster ? Im a bit cold , he said . Cooper looked at Elijahs expression . Elijah wasnt in a good mood . He stepped forward and took the towel Let me do it ? Daddy … Bobbys voice was aggrieved , and even Cooper felt sad when he heard it , let alone Elijah . Its okay , Daddy is here : Elijah looked at Pobby , Sandra felt extremely guilty . She apologized , Im sorry , Mr. I wanted to feed Bobby some soup , but I didnt expect the bowl to be so hot Elijah frowned . He couldnt understand why feeding soup could result in Bobby getting scalded like this . Willow had never had an issue like this when taking care of Bobby , Shed rather spill that bowl of soup on herself than let even a drop touch Bobby . You have no experience ; its okay, Elijah said . He wasnt exactly experienced either . After quickly wiping Bobby down , he started dressing him and even buttoned one wrong . The pants werent pulled up properly . Bobby stood up and stepped on the pant leg , nearly falling off the hospital bed . Cooper saw it all . He thought , Without Willow , this family wouldnt have made it this far . Mother is an important role in a family . Elijah told Sandra to go home and asked Maddie to come take care of Bobby instead . He also called in a doctor to check on Bobbys burns . Luckily , everything was fine . Cooper noticed Bobby wasnt in a good mood and tried to cheer him up , but he didnt smile . Cooper asked , Whats wrong ? Dont you like Sandra anymore because she scalded you ? No , I still like her , answered Bobby . Sandra just couldnt take care of him well . He didnt blame her but pinned it on Willow . If she had not been stubborn and left , this wouldnt have happened . Elijah tucked Bobby in and said , Get some rest , Daddy will come to see you after work . 3/5 12:53 Tue , Chapter 5 Okay . Bobby nodded . Cooper followed Elijah outside . Elijah opened the car door and suddenly asked him , Has Willow contacted you ? Huh ? Cooper was taken aback by the question . Why would she contact me ? Elijah thought Willow couldnt just sit still after she saw that post . He thought , We have unfriended each other ; she definitely will ask around . Cooper is the best option . Forget it ; nothing important . If she can ignore her sick kid , dont mention her to me again . Elijah looked angry . Cooper was at a loss for words . Whos the one bringing her up ? Elijah went back to the office and dealt with two documents . The more he thought about it , the more something felt off . Willow is too quiet . She cant possibly be that patient . Did something happen to her ? he wondered secretly . After all , she was Bobbys biological mother , and Elijah didnt want anything bad to happen to her . He sent a message to Freya . [ Is Willow dead ? How could she ignore her own child ? ] Freya almost smashed her phone on set when she saw the Fortunately , her agent reacted quickly . Her agent snatched the phone away , and blocked Elijah , preventing an explosive argument . But that couldnt stop Freya from cursing Elijah at Willow . She said , How could there be such a beast of a man? Can I just kill him ? Willow glanced at Hannah nearby , covered the phone with her hand , and whispered , Did he give you divorce papers ? Freya thought for a while and said , No. Willow said , Then wait until I get back to deal with it . Dont confront him . Im here with Hannah at a photography exhibition . Ill call you later . Willow hung up and walked over to Hannah . Honey , are you getting a divorce ? asked Hannah . Willow knew Hannah had heard . She nodded . There were no further questions . Hannah had been living abroad for years . The last time she saw Willow was at the Robinson familys funeral . After Willows parents passed away , Hannah and Willow lost touch . 4/5 12:53 Tue , 11 Mar Chapter 3 Hannah was surprised and happy to know Willow would be there . When she saw Willow there , she felt a pang of sympathy . The Willow she remembered was a lively , kind hearted girl . Now Willow smiled gently as if she had lost her sharpness . Marriage has changed her so much . Hannah felt sad for her . Elena Robinson , Hannahs best friend , had left behind just one child Willow . Hannah wished she could fly back home immediately and punch Elijah . Now that she knew about the divorce , she was very happy . Hannah was divorced too . She married at twenty and divorced at thirty . She took half her husbands assets and moved to Helisland . She could party with any man she liked without any consequences . Life was carefree and delightful for her . What about Bobby ? Who gets custody ? asked Hannah . Willow answered , His father . Well , thats good . Hannahs child also stayed with the father . She continued , You get to enjoy your freedom . Last time we met , you gave me a photographic work . I displayed it here . You can see it yourself . My son is coming to celebrate my birthday too . I need to find out where he is . Willow said , Alright . Hannah turned to leave . It didnt take Willow long to find the photographic work she had given Hannah years ago . Only now , there was a tall man standing in front of that photo . Title: A Princess? No! I'm the Female General! In "A Princess? No!
