Chapter 429 Does She Look Like Cordelia
At this time of the day, it should have been Ben who had just returned from a nightclub and came to
him for coffee.
Elijah didn't open his eyes and said, "Come in."
A fair-faced, sweet-looking girl poked her head through the doorway and said with a smile, "Elijah, are
you sleeping?"
Only then did Elijah open his eyes, glancing at the visitor and saying, "Where's your brother?"
"He went to the bathroom." The girl walked in and sat on the sofa beside Elijah, asking with concern,
"Elijah, do you have a headache again? Let me help you press it."
"Don't be." Elijah refused directly with a cold tone.
"But you looked pained." The girl looked worried as if the pain was on her.
Elijah didn't bother to speak, still closing his eyes.
Suddenly, the strong scent of perfume hit his nose, causing him to frown harder.
He opened his eyes impatiently and saw the girl's face close at hand, about to kiss him.
Elijah quickly pushed her away. "Get lost!"
The girl stumbled as she was pushed and hit the coffee table.
Her eyes instantly filled with tears, and she said sadly, "Elijah, I just want to help you..."
She thought, "People say that kissing can relieve pain. I just want to help Elijah ease his pain. Why did
he do this to me?"
At this moment, Ben walked in.
He was in formal attire tonight, dressed to the nines, with gold-rimmed glasses perched on the bridge
of his nose and a faint smile.
"Kelly, come here. Don't disturb Elijah." His tone was gentle, and his voice was clear and pleasant.
Kelly was Ben's cousin. She was a second-tier actress in today's entertainment industry, with a pretty
face and acting skills. She was expected to be among the first tier due to her rapid development.
Elijah coldly glanced at Ben, dissatisfied with his nightclub-specific outfit, and said, "Hurry up and take
your sister home. I have a lot of work left to do."
"Uh," Ben agreed, but he was already sitting on the sofa. "I found Imogen."
"Really? Where is she?" Elijah was interested and sat up directly, ignoring the headache.
"Verdania. She often performs at the Capital Theater there." Ben said with a smile, but his eyes were
teasing.
"Is she with Cordelia?" Elijah was nervous inside but asked casually outwardly as if he were.
"It seems... not." Ben's expression remained elegant as he pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. "Have
you ever thought that Cordelia might have returned home a long time ago?"
Of course, Elijah had thought about it, but it was just a huge crowd. And if Cordelia didn't show up
voluntarily, where would he look for Cordelia?Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Ben took his cell phone from his pocket and handed it to Elijah. "Look at this vlogger. Does she look
like Cordelia? The videos she posted are all related to folk music."
Elijah's eyes narrowed as he took Ben's cell phone and looked at Ben suspiciously.
He always thought there was something fishy about this dumbass suddenly becoming smart lately.
Thus, Elijah carefully watched the content on the cell phone.
Suddenly, his pupils trembled.
The ring worn on the hand in the video seemed identical to the one Eason had prepared for his fiancée!
