Chapter 356 The Most Important Question
If it had been in the past, Cordelia wouldn't have worried so much.
But now Imogen was pregnant with twins, which made Cordelia worried to death.
She was afraid that her tragedy would happen to Imogen.
Cordelia almost sped up all the way back to the Maple Villa. As she saw blood in the yard, yet not
much, her heart was even more suspended in her throat.
"Imogen! Imogen!" Cordelia ran and rushed into the villa.
As soon as she entered the villa, she saw Imogen lying on the sofa weakly.
Elijah was sitting quietly on the other side of the sofa, far away from Imogen.
"Imogen, how are you? Where are you feeling unwell?" Cordelia asked anxiously.
"She's fine. She's just scared," Elijah replied to Imogen.
Cordelia held Imogen's wrist, took her pulse, and asked Elijah at the same time, "What happened?" Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Before Elijah could answer, Imogen took the lead and said, "I... I want to be alone for a while."
For a moment, the living room fell into silence.
Half a minute later, Cordelia said, "You are too frightened. It's not a big problem. I'll send you up to
rest!"
"Okay." Imogen was very obedient, followed Cordelia, and went upstairs.
Elijah waited for Cordelia downstairs for a long time before she showed up.
"Haven't you left yet?" Cordelia looked at him in surprise.
"Where is your mobile phone?" Elijah asked with a frown.
Cordelia quickly took it out. "It's out of battery. I was busy and forgot. I didn't expect you to have my
assistant's phone number."
Elijah finally felt relieved.
"Elissa came to cause trouble for Imogen, and the two started fighting. Later, Ben beat Elissa so badly
that she was sent to the hospital."
Elijah didn't exaggerate the details at all.
By the time he arrived and pulled Ben away, Elissa had already passed out.
Cordelia was stunned. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"I thought... Imogen would definitely suffer a loss."
Elijah said calmly, "I don't understand Ben, either."
Later, Elijah intended to leave.
Before his departure, Cordelia suddenly stopped him.
Elijah turned around and looked at Cordelia with a deep look.
Cordelia paused and said unnaturally, "Come for dinner tonight!"
Quite stunned, Elijah smiled slowly. "Okay."
Anyway, Elijah helped a lot with today's matter.
Cordelia felt it seemed insincere to just thank him verbally and that it would be better to treat him to a
meal instead.
Elijah was very satisfied with her invitation and quickly left with brisk strides.
Cordelia knew that her cooking skills were not very good, so she hired a chef to cook.
When Imogen awoke, she was visibly much better in spirit, though her body was still dull. However, she
was stubborn.
"If I hadn't been pregnant, I would have beaten her until she was disabled. Cordelia, let me tell you, her
every move was to attack my belly. It was so annoying!"
Cordelia patted Imogen's head, comforted her, and said, "I was to blame. I shouldn't have been
softhearted, kept you in Beilve City, and put you in danger."
Imogen blushed suddenly. It was she who stubbornly insisted on staying for another two days. After all,
she was too willful.
"I have a question. How did Elissa get into the villa?" Cordelia asked.
"The security guard is her fan, and she seduced him," Imogen said contemptuously.
Cordelia suddenly became serious. "I will complain about this matter. Such a man should find another
job!"
Imogen absolutely agreed with this.
"I still have a question. Imogen, why did Ben suddenly beat Elissa?" Cordelia asked the most important
question.
