Chapter 34 An Unexpected Gift

That night, Cordelia went back to the Maple Villa.

She took all the supplies with her when she left, but this morning, she

found that Nora had prepared new ones for her.

Seeing her back, Nora was very happy and served her the fertility food

after dinner.

Cordelia finished it with a wry smile and then went back to the study to

work

When Elijah came back, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Nora

stepping forward with a big smile on her face, pointing to the high

heels on the ground and the second floor.

“Is Cordelia back?"

Nora nodded and said with a smile, “And she finished the fertility food.

You finally coaxed her.”

Coaxed her?

Elijah changed his shoes expressionlessly and went upstairs to see

Cordelia.

When he went to the door of the study, he heard Cordelia“s voice.

“Adain, this thing can't be done rashly. I hope you can be patient

l..

Elijah’s eyes became colder.

Cordelia was talking on the phone when she saw Elijah walking in with

a cold face.

“Adam, can I talk to you tomorrow? Okay. I have to hang up.”

H

Cordelia put down her phone and looked at Elijah “What's wrong?”

Judging from Elijah’s expression, it seemed that he came to ask what

happened.

"Did you meet Eva this afternoon?” Elijah walked toward Cordelia slowly

while asking

“Um.”

Cordelia remained calm. She wanted to see how Eva discredited her in

front of Elijah again.

“She is like a child and speaks before she thinks. Don't take offense,”

Elijah said seriously.

Cordelia looked at Elijah and said with a light smile, “I think Miss Lewis

is quite honest.”

It was not that Eva spoke before she thought. Instead, she had

rehearsed it countless times in her mind.

Otherwise, how could she upset Cordelia with every word she said?

Elijah stepped forward and lifted Cordelia from the chair.

Cordelia was shocked. “What are you doing?”

Elijah sat where she had been sitting before and placed her on his lap.

The two were very close to each other.

“Eva is someone I must protect. If she makes you suffer, I'd like to

apologize to you on her behalf.”

Elijah’s tone was gentle, as if he realized what he owed Cordelia

But Cordelia didn't care

She had investigated the past between Elijah and Eva, so his words

were not difficult to understand.

Cordeha thought Elijah also had feelings for Eva.

Or did he do that knowingly?

Suddenly, she felt that her car was itchy, and her whole body trembled.

“Elijah...”

“Not only do I apologize, but I will also make it up to you, okay?” Elijah

said in a low, attractive voice in her ear.

Cordelia avoided his kiss and said coldly, “I don't want it.”

“You haven't seen it yet. How do you know you don't want it? Elijah

chuckled as if he was sure she would like it.

Under Cordelia’s puzzled eyes, he reached out and took out a delicately

packaged box from his bag.

Cordelia was knowledgeable. She knew the logo on the box.

The jewelry of this brand was the most famous among domestic

products. The designers were from abroad Ordinary people needed to

place customization orders half a year in advance

According to Elijah’s status, he might have to place the order three

months in advance.

Three months ago, Elijah was not as interested in Cordelia as he was

now.

Therefore, Cordelia doubted the original receiver of this gift.

When she was thinking wildly, Elijah opened the velvet box.
