Chapter 438 Do You Still Have Feelings for Him?
After a long time, Imogen asked with great difficulty, "Is he... suffering from an incurable disease?"
Cordelia thought for a while before saying, "There is a low cure rate, but it is not impossible. In short, his future is bleak.”
Imogen's expression was obviously complicated.
"What's wrong with him, exactly?"
Cordelia shook her head and said, "I promised him that I wouldn't tell you about this. Imogen, I suggest that you never see him again. That will be better for you and him."
“I will think about it carefully,” Imogen said with a wry smile.
The two chatted for a while, and Imogen suddenly asked, "Cordelia, what's going on with you and Elijah now?"
Cordelia smiled and shook her head as she replied, "We haven't seen each other for a long time. We are all in different situations. It's okay to be friends. But I won't consider anything else beyond that for the time being.”
"Cordelia, you're being too calm. Do you still have feelings for him?" Imogen asked.
"I don't seem to feel anything anymore, but I am already very patient with him."
Cordelia felt that after they met again, she had already been very nice to Elijah.
Otherwise, Cordelia would have left him to freeze out in the yard all night, given how arrogant and difficult he was.
"That starlet, Ben's cousin, seems to be courting Elijah. She showed up at Elijah's door with some fresh ingredients and wanted to have dinner with him when I left his place today," Cordelia said calmly.
"Damn, is there really something between the two of them?" Imogen asked, widening her eyes in disbelief.
"Who knows!?" Cordelia said indifferently.
In any case, their relationship was certainly not ordinary. Otherwise, Kelly would not have shown up at Elijah’s place so casually and behaved so intimately with him. The hostility she had towards Cordelia wouldn't have been that intense, either.
As for Elijah...
His thin and handsome face popped up in her head when she thought of him.
Cordelia pursed her lips and sighed, "After all, we have been separated for two years. Two years is enough for a lot to change..."
Cordelia was woken up by Elijah’s call bright early the next morning. His voice was very low as if he was calling Cordelia secretly.
"Ben has put on his glasses again. Cordelia, can I trouble you to get breakfast for three?"
Elijah’s words were very tactful, but Cordelia understood that Elijah wanted her to observe Ben.
In the midst of her sleepiness, Cordelia slowly came to her senses and said, "Alright, I'll be there in a minute.”
After saying that, Cordelia reviewed the notes she had taken about dissociative identity disorder during her research last night. She then washed up and left.
Despite the morning rush hour, Cordelia arrived quickly at Elijah’s villa since it was located in the suburbs.
In addition to Elijah and Ben, Cordelia realized that Ben's cousin was also present.
At this time, Kelly was acting like the mistress of the house as she looked critically at the breakfast Cordelia was holding
"This fast-food joint was just exposed for being unhygienic. How dare you buy breakfast there?"
Cordelia intended to ignore Kelly. However, Elijah was upset with her. "I don't have an opinion about what Cordelia bought me for breakfast. She can buy whatever she wants. What does it matter to you?"
Kelly looked at Elijah in disbelief and said, "I'm worried because you're going to eat it! Elijah, your gut can't take this junk food at all.”
At this time, Cordelia asked, "What's wrong with your gut?”
"It's okay, don't listen to her nonsense." Elijah quickly covered up.
