Chapter 425 Before Due Date
Cordelia had recently been learning stuff during the break. Occasionally, she would ask Milo or Lidio for
advice when she encountered problems. Life had been quite fulfilling.
While she was racking her brains reading, Imogen came in quietly and said, "Shh!"
Cordelia saw her sneaking around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Do you know who Joyce's buddy is? You won't be able to guess it." Imogen said mysteriously.
"Who?" Cordelia offered enough curiosity because she knew Imogen wanted to gossip.
"It's Jacob, who has been keeping a low profile since he got engaged!" Imogen said excitedly.
"He plays games?" This was Cordelia's first question.
"As far as I know, his family has a small game company, and he is in charge of it," Imogen said.
"Oh, that explains it. The CEO personally plays the game to attract players. If the players knew about
this, would they get angry and smash the keyboard?" Cordelia said jokingly.
Imogen rested her chin on her hands and said as she wondered, "How come I never met anyone
willing to be my cyber lover when I play games?"
Cordelia said, "Could it be your skills are terrible?"
Hearing this, Imogen was unhappy and tried to bite Cordelia while making the sound of a dog barking.
Cordelia quickly dodged and said, "Hey, pay attention to your belly! Stop fooling around and go to bed
early. Even if you don't want to sleep, Kenny and Amy must sleep!"
Kenny and Amy were the nicknames Imogen got for the babies. She hoped her children could be
happy and trouble-free after being born.
"Hmph! I will remember this one, Cordelia! You are a terrible friend!" After speaking, Imogen left
Cordelia's room pouting. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Cordelia was finally relieved, and the room became quiet again.
When Cordelia picked up the book again, she realized she couldn't focus.
So, she put away her books and took out her cell phone, planning to check her emails before going to
sleep.
While dealing with emails, she found a message from Elijah in her spam mail.
That was the email Elijah sent her when she and Imogen had just left Grant City.
Cordelia hesitated, having no courage to open it.
Whether the email contained Elijah's complaints and abuse or his regretless love, Cordelia wasn't
ready to face it.
So Cordelia turned off the screen of her phone in cowardice and did not read the email.
"Sleep! I must sleep!"
Cordelia hid her head in the quilt like an ostrich as if this could protect her.
But she knew better than anyone else that she really wanted to read that email and wanted to know
what Elijah said to her...
As Imogen's due date approached, Cordelia put down all her work and accompanied Imogen twenty-
four seven. They ate together and slept in the same room.
At first, Cordelia had already reserved a bed with the hospital for Imogen to be hospitalized the day
before her due date and have the cesarean section the next morning.
Everything had been arranged.
However, one night before the due date, Imogen suddenly felt pain in her belly.
"Don't panic and wait for a while. Maybe it's a false contraction."
Cordelia was calm and levelheaded, and it influenced Imogen. She also calmed down.
But Cordelia knew well that it might not be a false contraction. Imogen would probably have an early
delivery.
