Chapter 41 Stay Away From Him
Cordelia lowered her eyes absent-mindedly. “All the test results are available. It’s just a skin trauma.
The doctor said that I could be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.”
“Good to know that.”
The two were silent for a while.
“Cordelia, how did you know Eason?” Elijah asked suddenly.
“Do you know him?” Cordelia was surprised.
Elijah couldn’t admit that he checked Eason’s information, so he said, “He is very famous in the
business world of Grant City.”
“I knew him through Adam. They have a very good relationship.”

Elijah was very sensitive about their relationship, so Cordelia deliberately avoided it.

“He is very complicated. Stay away from him in the future,” Elijah warned in a cold tone.

Cordelia pursed her lips and remained silent.

“I am talking to you. Do you hear me?” Elijah askedamhappily when he didn’t get a response.
!ד
Cordelia responded perfunctorily. Elijah let go of her hand in a bad mood.
At that moment, his phone rang again. He got up and went out to answer it.
Cordelia glanced at Elijah’s back at the door, pulled the quilt indifferently, lay down, and fell asleep.
From what he said on the phone with Ben just now, he was refused when he asked Milo to treat
Eva.
If Cordelia’s guess was correct, Eason should have been there at the time, and Elijah was
embarrassed after he was rejected by Milo.
Humph…
It was touching that Elijah looked for famous doctors to treat Eva. If he was sick, Cordelia would do the
same for him.
No wonder Eva was willing to be his mistress to repay his kindness.
Cordelia was discharged from the hospital the next day.
Because of the injury, she stopped all work and recuperated at home.
When Edith learned that Cordelia was injured, she went to see her and brought her many
supplements.
“I’ve heard about what happened to your family. You are free to make any decisions, but I want to
remind you, don’t let your grandpa know,” Edith said in a serious tone.
“I know,” Cordelia responded obediently, but she knew that Gideon disliked her more and more.
“Also, Cordelia, has Ottilie contacted you?” Edith asked suddenly.
Cordelia knew that since Edith asked this question, she must have known, so she said calmly, “Yes, I Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
gave her a hand.”
At the same time, she added inwardly, “And I lost 100 million dollars.”
She almost got her wish for a divorce. She was just a step away!
Edith sighed, “She is lovestruck and stubborn. Try to contact her less. Don’t get yourself into.
trouble.”
Cordelia nodded obediently.
“Wait!
Edith knew about Ottilie’s contact with me, so Elijah should have known about it long ago, right?
Therefore, he should know that I failed to go to the Courthouse for divorce on time that day because I
was helping Ottilie save her child!
However, he never mentioned it. Now, he didn’t even give me the chance to divorce.”
After seeing off Edith, Cordelia was depressed and slumped on the sofa, feeling sad about the 100
million dollars she had lost.
Elijah came back early that night, but he was still very busy and was on the phone all the time.
“Mr. Carter has agreed to treat Eva, but he wants his apprentice to do it. His apprentice will give a reply
in three days.”
Cordelia, who was lying on the sofa, frowned suddenly with a bad feeling.
She turned over, took out her phone, and glanced at it.
Sure enough, there was a message from Milo’s assistant.
