Chapter 169 He Is Pretending

Adam shook his head. "We're still investigating. The person who sent

you the anonymous audio is also an expert. We couldn't find any

information about him, but the audio is fake and made by someone

with a malicious intention.”

Although he told Cordelia the truth honestly, Adam was quite

dissatisfied with the result.

He thought, "Damn! How could the audio be fake? It would be great if

the audio was true and could prove Elijah had cheated on Cordelia.”

"Then I will trouble you to continue the investigation, Adam. Thank you

for helping me buy the mobile phone.” Cordelia smiled.

Now she even smiled with pain.

Adam's heart ached.

He couldn't help but say, "Cordelia, listen to my advice. Long-term pain

is worse than short-term pain.”

Cordelia nodded slightly. "I understand.”

At this time, Eason came back.

He came back alone. His hostility never dissipated, and he gave off a

bloodthirsty aura.

"Adam, it's time to go," Eason said coldly.

Adam was taken aback. "Eason, aren't you so worried about Cordelia

that you can't sleep? Why did you come here for a while and want to

leave now?"

"Don't disturb Cordelia’s rest. Hurry up!" Eason interrupted his nagging

and said coldly.

Adam shook his head. "Okay, let's go."

After saying goodbye to Cordelia, the two quickly left the hospital.

Back in the car, Adam couldn't help nagging. "Eason, you are too calm

Why don't you tell Cordelia what's on your mind?"

Eason said impatiently, "Hurry up and drive.”

"Hey..." Adam sighed helplessly.

Unexpectedly, Eason suddenly said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be

able to control myself."

Only then did Adam notice that Eason's knuckles were all red.

And his hands were still shaking as if trying to endure something.

Having been friends for many years, Adam knew that Eason was still in

extreme anger.

Adam could only sigh in the end and drove Eason away from the

hospital.

When Elijah returned to the ward, those two had already left.

As soon as Cordelia raised her eyes, she saw the wound on Elijah's face.

However, she pretended not to see it and turned her face away as if

nothing had happened.

At this time, her whole body was still bound with gauze in many places,

and she had nothing to do except lie in the bed and look around.

Sitting beside Cordelia's bed, Elijah made juice with a juicer and

brought the straw to her lips.

"Have a drink."

Cordelia obediently opened her mouth and drank.

At this time, Cordelia's new cell phone rang.

She picked up the phone and turned on the speakerphone.

"Cordelia, it's me, Imogen. I'm back in Beilve City. Which hospital are

you in? I'll go and visit you.”

Cordelia talked to her and asked Elijah to send Imogen the location.

Until Imogen came to the hospital, Cordelia didn't even ask about the

wound on Elijah's face from the beginning to the end and didn't say a

word of concern.

It was Imogen who asked as soon as she entered the door, "Hey, Mr.

Hansen, are you injured too?"

"I'm fine. You guys talk. I'm right outside the door. Call me if you need

anything.” After speaking, Elijah went out, his back slumped and lonely.

Imogen shook her head, stroked her chest, and said, "Oh, these men

are really good at pretending to be pitiful. I'm very soft-hearted and

can't see them like this."

"He's really good at pretending.” Cordelia said extremely calmly, "Eason

is such a cautious person. How could it be possible for him to beat one

person and let the wound leave on his face? Unless..."

Imogen was stunned. "Damn it. This man is really ruthless!"
