Chapter 235 Has No Time for You Now
The next day was Cordelia’s birthday.
Waking up, she received many birthday wishes but none from Elijah.
He might not remember. Otherwise, he would not have mentioned it during dinner yesterday.
Therefore, as Elijah said he wanted to pursue her, she always felt that it was just his joke and that it was just what he said casually.
How could he not remember her birthday if he pursued her because he really liked her?
So, Cordelia pa*sed the day quietly.
On the way, she also received a call from Elijah. He chatted with her as usual and said he would come to the Maple Villa after the evening reception.
In the evening, Cordelia received a special courier.
This courier was sent to her by Eason.
“Cordelia, this is a birthday present from Mr. Carter.”
Cordelia weighed it. It was very light, and there seemed to be only a small thing in the box.
“What did Milo give me? It is so mysterious.” Cordelia smiled and opened the box immediately.
A key lay quietly inside, with a note with the address and mailbox number.
At first glance, the handwriting was written by Milo himself. It was vigorous and uninhibited.
Then Cordelia went to the address on the note with Eason, but the person there got off work.
“I can only come tomorrow morning.” Cordelia felt a little regretful.
Eason blamed himself a little. “It is my fault. I should have delivered it to you earlier.”
To be precise, Adam should be blamed for his bad idea to let Cordelia keep Eason for dinner.
“It is okay. I can come here tomorrow morning,” Cordelia put away her regret and smiled.
“Have you eaten yet? How about having a meal together?” Eason suggested.
Cordelia thought about it and refused him because someone was

a green-eyed monster.
After being rejected, Eason proposed to go to the mailbox with her to get the letter tomorrow morning, and Cordelia agreed.
So Cordelia went back to the Maple Villa for dinner by herself.
Afterward, while reading medical books, she waited for Elijah.
The reception usually lasted very late. But Cordelia waited until eleven o’clock at night, and there was no news from Elijah, which made her feel a little irritable.
In one hour, her birthday would be over!
So, she called Elijah.
In the end, it was Gideon who answered the phone.
“Cordelia, you called Elijah at night. Didn’t you say you did not seduce him?” Gideon said in a blunt tone.
“I have something to ask Elijah, and he agreed yesterday.” Cordelia was confident and honest.
“Elijah has no time for you now!” Gideon smiled. “He is working hard to let me hold my great-grandson!”
Cordelia’s face was terrible.
Her first feeling was that Gideon was controlling Elijah.
However, considering what he might be going through now, Cordelia still couldn’t help but tightly clutch the front of her
clothes.
Gideon was a disrespectful old!
“Sir Hansen, despite your age, I don’t believe a single word you
say!”
Cordelia didn’t believe that Elijah would let Gideon manipulate
him.
But what if he was being calculated now?
Since Liam pa*sed away, Gideon’s behavior had been a little crazy. He had become a crazy old man.
To achieve the goal of controlling Elijah, maybe he could really
do it.
“It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not. You don’t even want to contact Elijah tonight.
“I know he will explain to you afterward, but will you believe
him?”
As Gideon said, he sneered, “I know what is happening between you two.
“You are just a tool for Elijah to resist the family!”
