Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 306

At that time, Everleigh had a faint smile on her face. Her smile was like a golden light shining in the darkness, saving him.

In the past few years of working there, he got to witness her passion and obsession with medicine.

She said that her biggest dream was to be able to save more people. No matter how difficult the conditions were, she would bear it. If he told her that she wouldn't be able to continue to do operations, how could she accept it?

"What should we do now?" He asked.

"I've already contacted foreign experts. Let's wait and see." Dr. Harrison's tone was heavy and his eyes were devoid of any energy.

"I'll go and see her." Christopher pinched off the cigarette in his hand and got up to visit Everleigh.

When he walked in the ward, he took a deep breath and changed his expression.

"Have you eaten? I've bought your favorite sushi," he said with a smile on his face as he pushed the door open.

Everleigh was eating snacks and she didn't feel that hungry either.

However, she still had to accept his kindness.

"Alright, bring it over. I need to nourish my strength so that I can work hard in the future." His expression became a little stiff, but it could not be seen without looking carefully. Cecil, who was sitting by the side, also fell into silence.

Her heart felt so heavy that she couldn't bear to say anything.

"Did Dr. Harrison say when I could be discharged?" Everleigh ate the sushi Christopher brought and asked with her expectant dark eyes. She couldn't wait to be discharged from the hospital.

She didn't feel comfortable lying there like that.

He walked over and looked at Alastair and Adrienne, saying, "You should take care of yourself and rest since you've worked hard for such a long time."

"I can't always rest, can I?"

"Rest while you still can. Look at Christopher, when did he rest? He looks exhausted every time we meet," Cecil rudely belittled him and did not forget to comfort Everleigh at the same time.

Everleigh was worried that they would quarrel so she quickly interrupted her and said, "Okay, I got it. You can rest assured that I will rest properly. But can you guys send Alastair and Adrienne back to the Trevino family? I am a little tired."

"Mommy, we don't want to leave." Adrienne didn't want to go back, nor did she want to leave her mother.

Alastair also wanted to stay, but he was worried that Everleigh wouldn't be able to rest properly so he agreed and said to Adrienne, "Let's go back and visit Mommy tomorrow morning."

"But..." Adrienne pouted with unwillingness written all over her face.

"Go back. You guys won't be able to rest properly if you're here. I won't be able to rest properly either. I'll call Christopher to pick you guys up tomorrow morning, okay?"

Adrienne still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Alastair so she could only agree. He also brought back a lot of her snacks. He knew that she was actually reluctant to part with those snacks.

Christopher sent them back and Cecil stayed back to accompany Everleigh.

"You can go back too. Don't you want to go back and draw up some designs?"

"No, I only need to work twice a year to live properly. I think staying with you here is more important. I can't sleep if I go back either. Also, I have already told you that you should avoid those patients that have a bad temper, haven't I? It's not like you don't pay attention to news either." When it came to that matter, Cecil was very angry. Why wouldn't she know how to avoid these kinds of situations?

Everleigh didn't want things to end up like that either. It happened so suddenly that she couldn't even react to it.

"Please don't mention it anymore. I'm already so upset now, yet you still don't want me to have a peace of mind?"

Cecil's sharp eyes swept over her. She would not have done it in the past, but this time, she chose to shut up.

The next morning, Everleigh was sent for an examination, so there was no one in the ward. Selena brought Alastair and Adrienne to visit her. When they didn't see anyone in the ward Alastair became a little anxious.

"Where's Mommy? Aunt Selena, where did she go?"

Seeing that he was panicking, she comforted him, "Don't be nervous. I'll go and ask the nurse now. You guys wait here."

Cecil and Everleigh came back just as she opened the door.

"Where have you guys been? The children were so worried when they couldn't see you," said Selena.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"We went to have an examination. Don't you know that you can ask the nurses? Why are you shouting at your sister here?" Cecil was dissatisfied with her attitude.

After all, she was her elder sister. She should be more polite when speaking to her.

Selena was stunned. As she looked at Cecil's face, her anger soared, "It's not your place to talk anything about the things between us, right?"

"Hmph. If it's not my place to say anything, then why didn't you stay back last night to take care of her? Your father is old, so I won't say anything about him, but you are young. It's only natural for a younger sister to take care of her older sister," Cecil retorted.

"You..."

Everleigh's head ached a lot. Couldn't she be hospitalized with peace of mind?

"Mommy, where did you go? I was so worried about you," Alastair asked.

"I went to have an examination," Everleigh replied and went back to the ward to rest. Adrienne and Selena accompanied her in the ward.

He stood behind and looked at Cecil. He wanted to ask about the result. She didn't hide anything from him either. She could see from the day before that he was more mature than any ordinary children of his age and was much better at speaking and handling things than adults.

He was silent for a long time. Then, he asked coldly with his tender and childish face, "Have you found that person?"

"She had been captured. She's in a mental hospital right now, but I've already found a few people to 'take good care' of her. I believe that she will feel very 'comfortable' these days." Cecil wasn't like Theodore, who settled with only capturing her. She was really mad this time.

"If Theodore had half of your thoughts, my mommy wouldn't have suffered so much," Alastair said with a look of deep dissatisfaction on his face.

Did Theodore think that compensation could offset the pain in Everleigh's heart?

He really wasn't suitable for her.

Cecil suddenly burst into laughter, "You really are very dissatisfied with your father, huh?"

"Of course I'm dissatisfied. He's not even as good as Christopher."

Speaking of him, Alastair's expression relaxed considerably. Christopher's performance was quite good this time. He would always take care of Everleigh whenever something happened to her. Even until that moment, Theodore hadn't shown his face yet.

Upon hearing the latter part of his sentence, Cecil's face suddenly darkened. She said in a weird tone, "Which part of Christopher is good?"

"Isn't he good?"

"Bullsh*t, he's a lecherous b*stard. He actually ran away after making a fool out of my sister. I'm telling you. I'd rather you accept Theodore than accept Christopher."

Alastair had nothing to say about her prejudice. Although he didn't know what had happened, he could see that Cecil didn't like Christopher very much.

It seemed that she held a deep grudge against him.

Selena took Adrienne to buy snacks, leaving Everleigh alone in the ward. Then, Theodore appeared at the door with a pot of soup in his hand.

Everleigh smelled the scent of the soup and found it to be very fragrant. She thought that Cecil had brought her some soup, but she didn't expect to see him.

"How are you feeling today?" He walked in after a long silence.

"I'm fine," she said in a low voice and she didn't speak anymore.

He knew that his appearance would make her unhappy, so he didn't say anything else.
