Later, Elijah came.
When he saw Cordelia, he was not surprised. Edith might have told him in advance.
He sat beside Cordelia and took her hand. He asked, "Let's go after dinner, and I will send you home."
Cordelia blinked as if asking him with her eyes. "You are going to stay with me and not leave, aren't you?"
Elijah smiled and nodded calmly, affirming her thoughts.
"I have good news for you," Elijah said suddenly, "Jenny may be pregnant."
"So fast?" Cordelia was surprised.
Elijah nodded and said, "Samuel said that he hadn't taken her to the hospital for an examination, but they did a self-test, which showed that she was pregnant."
No wonder Jenny didn't call Cordelia and tell her about it. It turned out she planned not to tell Cordelia until she was sure.
However, men seemed to talk about anything. Samuel told Elijah about that early.
Cordelia was happy for Jenny.
At that moment, Edith came with fruits. When she saw the couple getting along well, she said with a smile, "Eat some fruits. I'll go to the kitchen to supervise them."
"Mom, come and sit down. I have something to talk to you," Elijah said.
Edith paused. She turned around and sat down.
"Do you know William?"
Edith nodded. "He is your father's classmate. He is abroad now, isn't he?"
"Yes, I want to visit him," Elijah said.
"I'll go with you," Edith said immediately. She did not forget Cordelia. "Cordelia, if you are free, come with us."
As Imogen said, she became proud. "Late affection is cheaper than grass. I don't care for it."
"You are great! You can refuse to accept and return them to him," Cordelia deliberately advised.
Imogen was silent for a moment.
Cordelia smiled. "What's wrong? Do you have any difficulty?"
"I won't. I'll take them as compensation for him bullying me," Imogen snorted.
Cordelia raised her eyebrow and asked, "Did he bully you?"
Imogen became angry. "Of course. That bastard made excuses to hug me and said I was plumper and softer than before."
Cordelia was speechless.
