Chapter 241 The Surveillance Camera
“That’s right! If you keep silent and ignore Elijah, you will make the villains happy and let them fulfill their wishes!” Imogen encouraged her.
“I know.”
Cordelia was hurrying to go out without makeup, and her face looked haggard.
If it were daytime, she would not let herself look so embarra*sed.
And she didn’t think too much since the darkness of the night would cover something.
However, when she came to the hospital, at the door of Elijah’s ward, two b*dyguards stopped her and said they had to report her visit to Elijah.
Cordelia was not in a hurry and waited patiently for a while.
But when the b*dyguard came out again, he told Cordelia, “Mr. Hansen said he doesn’t want to see you. Please go back!”
Cordelia frowned. “Did you tell him my name?”
no
“I told Mr. Hansen, and he said he wouldn’t see you!” The b*dyguard said articulately.
In an instant, Cordelia’s heart sank to the bottom.
What was the matter?
She stood at the door for a long time until the ward door was opened again.
Edith came out with a cold face.
“Why don’t you leave?”
“Mrs. Edith Hansen, how is Elijah?” Cordelia asked anxiously.
“Thanks to you, he didn’t kill himself. Cordelia, I didn’t expect you to be such a woman! I misread you!” Edith snorted coldly.
“I came here just to explain to Elijah,” Cordelia said with downcast eyes.
Unfortunately, he refused to see her.
“Okay, then explain to me, and I’ll tell Elijah. Whether he believes you or not is none of my business,” Edith said, pulling Cordelia to the quiet stairwell.
Cordelia thought that there was no need to explain to others.
Edith was so angry with her and looked at her with a severe face, but Edith was still willing to help deliver her message. Seeing
these, Cordelia thought she should speak to Earth.
“Yesterday was my birthday. Originally, Elijah promised met that he would come no matter how late. But at 11 o’clock in the evening, I called him, and it was Sir Hansen who answered the phone, saying that Elijah was with Daisy…”
Cordelia suddenly stopped and bit her l*p. Her eyes were reddish.
Edith’s expression was obviously a bit unnatural. She waved her hand and said, “It is true that Gideon has gone too far. But don’t worry. Nothing happened to them. As his mother, I can vow that nothing happened last night between them. I promise.”
Cordelia’s eyes moved slightly, looking directly at Edith without interrupting her.
“We were downstairs, and when we heard Daisy’s screams, we boldly disobeyed Gideon’s order and went up to open the door.
“As a result, Elijah was holding a dagger, stabbing himself and Daisy. That scene…”
Suddenly, Edith changed the subject. “He was still thinking about going to see you before he fainted, but you spent the night with another man in the house he sent to you on the same night?”
Edith suddenly criticized her.
Cordelia quickly explained, “I was drunk and confused last
might. Eason came to see me because he was worried about me. We stayed in the living room all the time. There were surveillance cameras at the door and in the living room.”
She spoke frankly, which slightly eased Edith’s anger.
“Why is there a surveillance camera installed in your living room?” Edith asked slowly.
“I lived in the Maple Villa alone. To ensure my security, I installed surveillance cameras in the living room and many other places.”
Cordelia didn’t expect that it would help her so soon.
Edith nodded. “Okay, you send me the surveillance footage, and I’ll try my best to persuade Elijah to watch it.”
Cordelia shook her head. “Mrs. Edith Hansen, don’t push him if he doesn’t want to watch it. I don’t want to bother you.”
“Are you giving up now?” Edith raised her eyebrows, somewhat puzzled by Cordelia.
Cordelia smiled lightly. “It’s not about giving up.”
If she gave up now, she was conceding that she was defeated by Gideon.
This time, she would hold on and be with Elijah tightly to crush that domineering old man’s wicked wishes.
