Chapter 167 I Don't Need You

Gabe stood aside, looked at Elijah seriously, and scolded him coldly, "If

it wasn't for you, how could this happen to Cordelia? Fortunately, she is

fine. If there is something wrong with Cordelia..."

"Dad, Mom..."

Hearing Cordelia's voice, Gabe and Edith turned around together and

walked quickly to Cordelia's bed.

Edith wiped her tears with a tissue and said, "Cordelia, why is your life

so hard..."

It was rare for her mother-in-law, who had always been strong, to speak

in such a tone, which made Cordelia feel apprehensive.

Gabe put his arms around Edith's shoulders and comforted her. "It's

good that Cordelia is fine. Fortunately, she is young and will recover

soon after recuperating her body."

Edith looked at Cordelia with pity, moved her mouth, but finally failed

to say the cruel sentence.

But Cordelia had guessed it.

The whole Hansen family must know about it.

She lost her fertility!

Cordelia showed a forced smile and comforted her in-laws. "I know,

Dad, Mom. Don't worry about me. Watch out for your health.”

Seeing Cordelia having difficulty speaking, Gabe and Edith didn't stay

long and left.

Before leaving, Edith gave Elijah a vicious look. That look definitely

didn't look like looking at her own son but at an enemy.

Elijah remained silent from the beginning to the end.

After his parents left, he came to Cordelia's bed and sat down. The

place on his face where Edith had beaten him was still red.

Just as Elijah was about to speak, Cordelia suddenly asked, "Is Miss

Lewis awake?"

Elijah was silent for a long time before saying, "She wakes up. She just

overdosed on sleeping pills and is fine after the gastric lavage..."

Cordelia didn't want to hear so much, so she interrupted him, "It's good

that she wakes up. What about the driver who hit me?”

"He has been detained and will be sentenced according to law," Elijah

said.

Cordelia was silent, turned her eyes to look out the window, and said to

Elijah, "Can you make a call for me? The phone number is..."

Elijah immediately did as she asked.

After dialing, he put on the speakerphone and gave the phone to her.

"Hello."

Adam's gentle voice came from the phone.

"Adam, investigate a traffic accident for me. I want to know the

mastermind behind the plot as soon as possible.”

At this time, Elijah whispered, "I'm already investigating.”

Cordelia's gaze remained unchanged, and she firmly told Adam what

happened to her.

"Adam, I don't believe in coincidences. You should find out as soon as

possible and tell me. I lost my mobile phone. You can call Elijah to

contact me for the time being.”

Adam hesitated for a while and said, "I will send you a new phone as

soon as possible.”

"Okay, then, thank you, Adam."

"You don't need to be polite to me."

After hanging up the phone, Elijah frowned and looked at her. "You just

said that someone sent you an anonymous audio? What is it?"

Cordelia looked at him calmly. "It's the recording of you and Eva having

sex.”

Elijah was taken back suddenly, and he stood up. "Impossible!"

"I heard with my own ears that it was the voices of the two of you. Why

is it impossible?” Cordelia mocked. "Besides, you know how much you

cared for Miss Lewis better than anyone else.”

"I'm her only relative. If something happens to her, the medical team

will naturally notify me. I'm responsible for her health.” Elijah gently

held her hand and explained patiently.

"Then please, concentrate on being responsible for her. I can be

responsible for myself!

"I, Cordelia, don't need you!

"You will only bring me disasters, repeated disasters!"

Hearing her words, Elijah felt a sharp pain in his heart, making it difficult

for him to breathe.
