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.

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..."
