Ben signaled Elijah with his eyes. "Aren't you following them? Maybe they're going to have some fun."

"Your mouth should be sewn shut," Elijah retorted coldly, but he had already stood up and left.

Ben watched his departing figure, and his lips curved into a smile for once.

Eason frowned. "But it is too unfair for you."

"I'm already used to it."

Cordelia had been beautiful since childhood and had a soft temper, so she was often the target of such comments, even more malicious ones. However, Cordelia had already become used to them.

Upon seeing Eason lost in thought, not looking great, as if he was pretty worried, Cordelia patted his shoulder. "It's alright, Eason. You don't have to worry about me."

At this time, a person emerged from the shadows, walking towards them with heavy footsteps.
