"Are you worried about your mother?" Cordelia couldn't help but ask.
Elijah's eyes still did not move away from her face for half a second.
After a long time, he said, "Cordelia, if the world suddenly becomes different from what you know, will you be disappointed?"
Cordelia didn't quite understand what he meant. She always felt that Elijah was still hiding something from her.
But now, she had nothing to be disappointed about.
So, Cordelia chuckled, " How bad can it be? No matter how bad the situation is, it won't be more painful than losing Hope."
Elijah was stunned for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on his lips. "You go in, and you tell my mother that I will wait for her outside."
In the end, Elijah handed over the women's battlefield to Cordelia to solve it.
He was afraid that seeing that woman would cause him to lose control of his temper.
Therefore, Cordelia didn't knock on the door but pushed the door open and entered.
In the room, Edith folded her arms across her chest, looking arrogant, while Mia covered her face and huddled in the chair, not daring to express her anger.
Edith suddenly stared at her. "Why are you pretending now? You weren't like this just now. You started pretending when Cordelia came."
Mia immediately looked at Cordelia for help. "Cordelia, Mrs. Edith Hansen beat me and scolded me. Can you call the police for me?"
"How dare you!" Edith became angry and looked at Cordelia with a fierce look. "Cordelia, do you believe her or me? She said that Gabe raped her when he was young. Do you believe it?"
Cordelia was stunned for a moment.
What did she say?
At the critical moment, Cordelia reacted very quickly and said, "Guys, listen to me. Mr. Gabe Hansen has passed away. Please respect the deceased and don't cause any more conflicts because of him. Can you each step back?"
Edith raised her eyebrows. "Okay. Let her apologize to me, and I'll leave immediately."
