Chapter 334 Too Harsh on Her
Seeing him raise a finger to his lips, Cordelia didn't greet him.
"Mr. Hansen said you were kind, but where's the kindness?" Clare hadn't noticed Cordelia's expression
and sneered, "You're just using your appearance to deceive men!"
Cordelia smiled, "See, you're quite competent when you're not pretending. Did calling me useless
make you feel better?"
Clare did feel a bit relieved, but her ultimate goal remained unachieved.
"You're a loser, and I won't waste my time on you. After your little tantrum, just leave. I'll continue to live
in my villa, enjoying my wealth and glory. Whether you live or die, it's none of my concern."
Cordelia turned to leave, but suddenly, Clare let out a shrill cry from behind. "Evie, go to hell!"
Cordelia had predicted her attack and quickly dodged. She elbowed Clare in the back, causing her to
fall to the ground.
Clare fell clumsily, her face scraping against the ground, leaving her terrified.
She couldn't afford to damage her face, not at this point!
But at this moment, she heard Cordelia's voice as if it were coming from a distant height. "Clare, how
much good luck do you think you have to act so recklessly?"
Just as she was about to retort, she heard a familiar voice. "Cordelia, are you okay? Did she hurt you?"
Cordelia shook her head. "I knew she'd resort to dirty tricks."
Otherwise, Laura wouldn't be hiding in the hospital, refusing to see anyone.
Clare had almost ruined Laura's face. Clare had always been a disguised snake, with her soft and
vulnerable appearance only a deceptive facade.
Seeing that Cordelia was unharmed, Elijah finally relaxed and then looked down at Clare, who was
lying on the ground.
"It's your own fault that you've ended up like this, Price Group. Trying to use your disciple to manipulate
an entire family for your own gain, you people at Price Group really have big dreams."
Elijah's tone was cold, and he stood slightly in front of Cordelia, still guarding against Clare's potential
last-ditch struggle to prevent Cordelia from getting hurt.
Although Clare could only see their feet, she realized she had lost her best opportunity to attack
Cordelia.
"Elijah, if I plead for Ms. Clare Price, will you spare her?" Cordelia suddenly asked.
"If you intercede, I will naturally be lenient with her. But will you?" Elijah looked at Cordelia, a hint of a
smile in his eyes.
"If she's truly a victim in all of this, just like you, I will intercede for her."
Cordelia said, her gaze turning colder, "But given Ms. Clare Price's previous actions, I'm extremely
uncomfortable with it. So, let's forget about interceding." This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Elijah nodded in approval. "I knew you would always see things clearly."
There was a hidden meaning in his words.
On one hand, he was praising Cordelia's ability to differentiate between right and wrong. On the other,
he was defending himself. Fortunately, Cordelia didn't misinterpret him too deeply.
Cordelia glanced at him, huffed, and said with a hint of arrogance, "But, if Ms. Clare Price really wants
to marry into a wealthy family, don't forget to play matchmaker if you have a suitable candidate."
Listening to their natural conversation, Clare lay on the ground and pressed her lips to remain silent.
When Clare heard that Cordelia wanted Elijah to introduce her to suitable candidates, she was still
baffled by Cordelia's unexpected offer to help her.
How could Cordelia be so kind? She refused to plead for the Price Group but was willing to help her.
It wasn't until she actually succeeded in marrying into a wealthy family that she understood the true
meaning of Cordelia's favor.
She had been living a life worse than death every day.
Elijah had been exceptionally harsh on her!
