Chapter 285

Chapter 285 What Is Going On?

Upon hearing Tristan's name, Elijah’s expression immediately became

extremely serious, and nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

"If I hadn't gone on an adventure with him back then, maybe..."

Everything would be different today.

Tristan would still be alive, and Eva would not live like this.

Later, Elijah returned to the car.

When seeing the driver, Elijah felt a little familiar, as if he had seen him

before.

Cordelia immediately explained, "It's the driver of Eason.”

Elijah responded indifferently and then did not speak again.

Along the way, the car was filled with silence.

Cordelia felt that Elijah was in a bad mood and didn't know if it was

because of what Ben said to him or because of Eason's driver.

Back at the hotel, Elijah hugged her in his arms as soon as he entered

the door.

Just as Cordelia was about to say something, she heard him say idly,

"I'm so tired. Can you sleep with me for a while?"

"Okay," Cordelia replied complicatedly and lay down with him.

She thought he would fall asleep soon, but the man was still awake

after an hour.

Although he didn't move, Cordelia knew that he was not asleep.

"Is there anything in your heart that bothers you?" She asked

cautiously.

Elijah didn't answer her and pretended to be asleep.

Cordelia frowned and didn't make another sound. After a while, she

withdrew from his embrace and went to read a book on the sofa.

She would let him hold back all those emotions in his heart since he

was so stubborn.

She would wait to see how long this man could pretend to be asleep!

Later, Elijah must have fallen asleep, but his sleep was extremely

restless.

When the sky gradually darkened, Cordelia was a little hungry, so she

went to bed and called him, asking him to have dinner together.

Elijah suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were piercing. He turned over

and clamped Cordelia on the bed. His hands had already pinched her

fragile neck.

A trace of panic flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she quickly calmed

down.

"Good skill." Cordelia smiled lightly.

Elijah's tense body instantly relaxed, and he pressed against her.

"Have a nightmare?" She asked.

"Hmm," Elijah responded sullenly.

"It's just a dream,” she patted him on the back and comforted him.

"Evie, I need to relax.” Elijah propped himself up and looked into her

beautiful eyes.

"May I give you a massage?” Cordelia raised her eyebrows.

"Maybe some bed exercises will be more effective.” He smiled lightly.

Cordelia stroked her forehead and thought, "This man had come up

with new tricks in courtship!”

So, she doted on him and had a hearty exercise with him on the bed.

While liberating him, Cordelia's body and mind were also satisfied, and

some of the previous unhappiness dissipated

She hugged Elijah's waist tightly, leaning on his chest, and asked,

"Elijah, since you came to Grant City suddenly, you should have a lot to

say to me, right?"

"Yes." Elijah caressed her hair. "Tomorrow I will tell you. I'm really in a

bad mood today."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to take the initiative to confess to me,"

Cordelia said intentionally.

Elijah smiled lightly and squeezed the soft flesh around her waist. "I

haven't done anything wrong to you. How can you say it's a

confession?”

"Really?" She said in a skeptical tone deliberately, "But I see that you are

restless and a little guilty. What's going on?"

He immediately shut up and thought, "Sure enough, all women were

Sherlock Holmes."
