Without realizing it, Ben became worried when he realized that his illness did not fall into the neurological category but rather the mental category.
His gaze became colder and sullener as he said, "Don't tell anyone about my illness."
Cordelia ignored him.
Elijah said, "Why don't you just say you don't want Imogen to know about this?"
Being teased by Elijah one after another, Ben couldn't tolerate it any longer. He stood up and said, "I'm leaving."
At this moment, Cordelia suddenly stopped him and said, "Ben, I suggest you live with Elijah for the time being. I need him to observe you and record some daily data."
Ben paused, turned his head, and looked at them vigilantly before asking, "You don't live together, do you?"
"No," Cordelia answered indifferently.
This was Elijah's villa, so she naturally had to go back to the Maple Villa.
"Well, you still have some humanity left in you. After all, you sickening couple. I'll be back at night," Ben said before leaving.
Cordelia looked at the record in front of her solemnly and then said to Elijah, "I think I need to call Lidio."
"So, Lidio's suggestion is not targeting Ben, but rather, Ben really has a mental illness?" Elijah frowned.
Cordelia said, "Although I'm a little irresponsible for saying this now... I suspect that Ben has already developed dissociative identity disorder!"
Elijah's eyes turned gloomy.
Elijah also carefully recalled some details before saying, "Based on your guess, Ben's second personality had already begun to take shape two years ago when Imogen left."
Cordelia suddenly remembered something and said in amazement, "I remember that once, at a dinner party, Ben behaved intimately and ambiguously with a dozen women successively. Moreover, his attire at that time was very different from the way he usually dressed."
Elijah shot Cordelia a strange glance, which made her a little scared.
"Adam was also at the dinner party at the time, and he casually took a photo for Imogen," Cordelia quickly explained.
With a faint smile, Elijah said, "Why are you panicking? I didn't say anything."
Cordelia gritted her teeth and thought, "Yeah, you didn't say anything, but you're really smug deep down. Don't think I can't tell."
