Chapter 18 Cordelia Missed the
Chance
In the end, Cordelia and Elijah parted unhappily.
When Cordelia sat in the car, her hands were still shaking.
She touched her lips unconsciously as if Elijah’s smell remained.
So, she wiped it vigorously in anger and then let out a long sigh of relief.

It was great!
When Cordelia returned to her apartment, she recovered.
After running the bath, she took a comfortable hot bath.
Then, she prepared the documents that she would use tomorrow. After checking them carefully several
times, she put them in her bag, feeling relieved.
Everything was ready.
At five o’clock in the morning, the phone rang suddenly.
Cordelia opened her sleepy eyes. She picked up the phone and looked at it. Then she was stunned for
a moment.

the family had given up on her long ago. No one mentioned her
anymore.
Cordelia didn’t expect that Ottilie would contact her suddenly.
“Cordelia, I’m really sorry for bothering you at this late night.
I…”
Before she finished speaking, Ottilie choked up.
“Ottilie, where are you now? What happened?”
“I’m in Beilve City. Cordelia, I remember you know some family medicine, right? Can you come… to
save my baby? I can’t take my baby to the hospital.” Ottilie cried even harder as she said. these
words.
For a moment, Cordelia’s head was buzzing. She got up quickly and asked about Ottilie’s address with
the speakerphone on while changing clothes.
Ten minutes later, Cordelia left home.
She drove straight to the old and small residential area provided by Ottilie.
Because the alley was too narrow, Cordelia had to park the car at the entrance of the alley. Carrying
the medicine box on her back, she found the small house where Ottilie lived.
“Cordelia, please save my child…”
Cordelia quickly held Ottilie’s hand and comforted her. “Don’t
After Cordelia finished examining the child, she said, “It is the upper respiratory tract infection
combined with facial neuritis. I’ll bring down the fever first.”
While speaking, Cordelia took out two small bottles of medicine from the medicine box and handed
them to Ottilie. Then she
told Ottilie how to use them and feed them to the child.
After the child’s fever subsided, Cordelia gave the child
acupuncture.
The child was too young to cooperate, which made Cordelia
sweat a lot.
It took a lot of time. Time passed quickly, and it was five past nine in the morning in the blink of an eye.
Her phone on the table beside her rang suddenly.
Seeing Elijah’s name, Ottilie hurriedly said, “Cordelia, please, don’t tell Elijah that I’m back.”
Cordelia paused and then nodded.
“Cordelia, where are you?”
As soon as she picked up the phone, Elijah’s impatient voice came from the other end of the phone.
Cordelia covered her mouth and glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already nine twenty!
“I… am busy with something…” Cordelia faltered and didn’t know what to say for a while.
Elijah suddenly latighed. He was

“Cordelia, are you fooling me? Is it enough? My time is precious, and I don’t have time to play this
game with you!” Elijah said in a cold tone.
Cordelia took a deep breath and said without confidence, “Wait a second. I’ll be right there.”
“No way!”
After finishing speaking, Elijah hung up the phone directly!
Cordelia was clutching the phone, feeling annoyed.
Seeing that Cordelia had finished the call, Ottilie thanked her gratefully.
Although she was thanked by Ottilie, she felt that she had lost a hundred million dollars.
Later, Cordelia left the small house where Ottilie lived, and before leaving, she discussed with Ottilie
the time of the next acupuncture visit.
She still went to the Courthouse, but sure enough, Elijah was no longer there.
So, she drove directly to Elijah’s company.
She contacted Elijah’s assistant and asked him to take her to Elijah’s office.
Standing outside the door, Cordelia look a deep knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
