Cordelia's tone was light and calm, but it gave Elijah an extremely heavy feeling.
Elijah's chest felt tight, and it gradually became difficult to breathe.
He felt that Cordelia was getting further and further away from him.
However, was all that really his fault?
"Cordelia, I'm afraid of losing you. I couldn't overcome the fear in my heart, so I chose to escape," Elijah said with difficulty.
Elijah felt that there was not much left in his life that he was afraid of losing.
The title of the head of the Hansen family and the president of the Hansen Group were the shackles that bind him.
Cordelia was the only one he didn't want to lose, even if he lost everything.
"Elijah, what are you afraid of?" Cordelia asked patiently.
She felt that Elijah was struggling in his heart, and the root of all that probably came from Tristan's death.
After all, he watched Tristan take the initiative to cut the rope and fall into the abyss.
Therefore, Cordelia tried her best to be patient and tried not to provoke him.
Seeing that Elijah didn't speak for a long time, Cordelia said again, "I checked the surveillance video at the door of Mr. Carter's house, and I saw you came that day."
Elijah's eyes moved slightly. His thin lips were still tightly pressed, but there was a bit of eagerness in his eyes.
"Elijah, you already knew that Eason was the one who saved me back then, right? That's why you are so afraid of him, right?"
Things that Cordelia hadn't figured out had been figured out recently.
After a long time, Elijah spoke with difficulty, "Cordelia, will you...be with him?"
