At this time, Cordelia was distracted and didn't notice the message on the phone.
But Elijah stared at her. Seeing she didn't respond for a while, he suddenly said coldly, "Aren't you looking at your phone?"
"Huh?" Cordelia turned her head and looked at him, puzzled.
The man's gaze was a little unkind at this moment.
She didn't know why. And she took out her phone and took a look.
It turned out that it was Eason who sent the message.
Apart from work, she didn't communicate much with Eason.
For some reason, Elijah kept disliking him and kept focusing on them.
Cordelia guessed that maybe it was just his tactic to accuse them falsely. It didn't matter what kind of relationship they had. The important thing was that Elijah arbitrarily charged them with any crime.
He was childish!
So, Cordelia openly opened the news in front of Elijah.
As she expected, sure enough, Eason was talking about work-related matters. He reported the construction progress to her and explained the problem, wanting to listen to her opinion.
Cordelia replied to him seriously and then put down the phone.
"It is getting late, and I'll go up and take a shower." Cordelia was sleepy because she was a sleepy species now.
Elijah did not let her go. "I still have something to tell you."
"We talk it slowly after lying down, okay?"
Cordelia yawned as she spoke, looking exhausted as if her eyes could hardly be opened.
Probably because she was pregnant now, Elijah let her go generously.
Cordelia went upstairs, but the phone was left on the dining table.
Elijah stared at her phone and thought for a long time. But in the end, he didn't open it but helped her carry it upstairs.
The bath was ready. Just as Cordelia was about to take a comfortable bath, Elijah came in.
She just took off half of her clothes, so she was a little embarrassed to put them on or take them off now.
