Chapter 377 Gave In
"Elijah, what's with you? Do you really have a fever?" Cordelia stepped forward and poked on his
blanket.
As a result, she accidentally poked Elijah's itchy spot. His body visibly trembled, and then he lifted the
quilt angrily.
Seeing Cordelia's smiling eyes, Elijah's anger disappeared instantly.
He really could not do anything about her. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Except...
Pulling her into his arms, he held her tightly.
"Elijah, isn't your jealousy a little too much?" Cordelia asked with a smile.
Elijah did not speak. He also felt ashamed.
But he just was unhappy.
"How about I pamper you one more time and break off friendship with Eason?" Cordelia asked.
Elijah buried his head in Cordelia's neck. He knew that he was being unreasonable and immature, like
a little boy.
"No need," Elijah said sullenly.
"I just thought Imogen called me back, so I was in a bit of a hurry. I called her earlier, but Ben
answered. Don't blame me for judging Ben, but I really don't trust him," Cordelia explained.
"Cordelia, do you and Imogen have any secrets?" Elijah asked sharply suddenly.
"Why do you ask that suddenly?" Cordelia was puzzled, her heart pounding.
After all, she felt a little guilty.
However, this was Imogen's secret, and she absolutely must not say anything!
"It's just intuition, don't be nervous." Elijah chuckled.
"Why would I be nervous?" Cordelia lied through her teeth and even sounded confident.
"Ben mentioned that he wanted to use children to marry Imogen," Elijah suddenly said.
Cordelia was stunned.
Really?
However, after thinking about it, Cordelia realized that the Turner family really liked Imogen at first. If it
were not for the decline of Imogen's family and the fact that Ben wanted to terminate the engagement,
the Turner family had no intention of giving up Imogen as their daughter-in-law.
From this point of view, the Turner family was actually quite good. It was a pity that Ben was just a
horrible human being.
In this world, how could anything be perfect?
"So, Ben regrets breaking off the engagement with Imogen?" Cordelia raised her lips and said
sarcastically.
"Yes, he regrets it, but he won't admit it."
Elijah had known Ben for so many years, so he naturally knew him better than Cordelia.
Although Ben was very stubborn and said that he would reluctantly accept Imogen for the sake of the
child if Imogen gave birth to a boy, his feelings for Imogen were obvious.
Hearing Elijah's affirmation, Cordelia was relieved.
However, she was not completely relieved. After all, Ben was a person with unstable emotions. If his
temper came up, it would be very difficult to deal with.
Being with Ben, Imogen would basically be holding a time bomb!
Seeing Cordelia's beautiful eyes blinking and her little head turning around, Elijah suddenly smiled.
Cordelia regained focus and looked at him suspiciously. "You're not pulling my leg, are you?"
"Cordie, why do you love to worry so much?" Elijah held her face in his hands and kissed the tip of her
nose.
Originally, he wanted to kiss her lips next, but he was interrupted by the sudden ringing of the phone.
Seeing that it was Imogen who called, Cordelia breathed a sigh of relief.
"Girl, have you finally woken up?"
Imogen was silent for two seconds and said with difficulty, "Cordelia, I gave in, waah..."
