Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 487

"Isn't the Meyer family supporting them just to investigate something? Otherwise, why would we need them? Besides, I'm the Young Master of the Meyer family, so it's normal for them to work for me. Not even the Meyer family will go against me," Christopher said.

Everleigh could tell that although he was beaten and scolded by Felicia, she still loved him very much.

"What did you find out?" She asked.

"The clues are all pointing at Saniago, and there is no other special progress. However, it is too farfetched to investigate this matter which happened in the past by just a photo," he said angrily as there was no further progress in the investigation.

Her eyes sank, and she felt uncomfortable again.

What would she do if it was really Saniogo?

In the hospital, she came to Xavier's ward in a bad mood. Theodore arrived a little late that day because he had to pick up Alastair and Adrienne.

"Mommy, look at the food we left for you," Adrienne said and quickly handed over the cake on the table, half of it already eaten by her.

Everleigh was in no mood to eat. She shook her head and said, "You can have it. I'm not hungry."

"Well, then I'll eat it," Adrienne replied.

Theodore looked at Everleigh's pale expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The Jenkins family matter. It is still the same. There's no progress at all," she answered weakly.

Why did troubles come one by one?

Couldn't she just live peacefully and quietly for a few days?

Theodore's eyes darkened when he heard that. "Everleigh, there's something I don't know if I should tell you," he said.

"Just say it. I know that you're doing this for my own good," she replied.

"Actually, I've always suspected that the person behind everything is Missha," he said.

Everleigh's expression froze. "Why do you say that?" She asked.

"If I said it's a feeling that I have, would you believe me?" He hesitated for a moment before coming up with such an excuse.

Her expression was slightly stiff. "Who do you think will believe in such a reason? It's impossible to rely on feelings," she said.

"I know that it is normal for Missha to treat you

well. After all, you are part of the Jenkins family. However, it is a bit inconsistent that she decided to give the company to you. Alexander is talented and Linggon is a smart person too. There is no reason for her to favor you rather than the other members of the Jenkins family," he explained. He knew very well that this family would do anything for their own status and benefit.

However, as Missha was such a generous person, he really didn't expect that she would be involved.

Everleigh was deep in thought, but she didn't feel offended by what he said.

"So this is how you've come up with your conclusion," she finally said.

Theodore's gaze sank as he sighed, "Actually, it's not entirely from this. After all, it's normal for your aunt to treat you well. It's just a feeling that I have."

He couldn't describe how he felt.

He could only try his best to guess and to describe how he felt.

Alastair sat at the side, listening to their conversation. His brows furrowed together, and his expression was very similar to Theodore's.

Mommy's aunt?

Who was it?

"Let's talk about it later. My aunt treats me very well. I don't want to put the blame on her. If I really caused any misunderstanding, I would be too ashamed to face her in the future," Everleigh said indifferently.

Theodore nodded. After all, he was just making a guess.

As the sky gradually darkened, Alastair and Adrienne became more impatient as well. They waited until Everleigh got off work and only then did they leave.

"Aren't you going back?" Everleigh asked.

"I've decided to go back to the company first," Theodore said. He was at the ward that afternoon so he didn't manage to settle the issues in his company.

She didn't insist and said, "You should rest early too. Your work can be settled any time. I've also not gone to the company the past few days, there will definitely be some delays in the research."

"I understand. Everyone in the company knows about it too," he responded.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Everleigh brought Alastair and Adrienne back home. Theodore looked at Xavier, who was lying on the bed, and said calmly, "If you don't wake up, the company will really be lost. Don't you want to take revenge?"

There was still no movement from the person lying on the bed.

His eyes were shut tightly.

Theodore lowered his gaze and couldn't be bothered to continue speaking.

The hospital was always very quiet at night, and everyone was resting. A few nurses on duty were also nodding off at the counter.

A dark figure then walked in without being noticed by anyone.

Dressed in black with a mask covering his face, he walked directly to Xavier's ward.

He pushed open the door quietly and saw that the lights in Xavier's ward were dimly lit, bringing a few rays of light into the dark room.

The man in black, with fierce eyes, held up a knife and walked over slowly.

He raised his knife and aimed it directly at Xavier's heart.

Right at that very critical moment.

The sound of footsteps could be heard from the corridor, and it was approaching very quickly.

The man in black quickly hid next to the door. As he heard the footsteps getting closer, he raised the knife in his hand.

His eyes reflected clearly his intention to kill. He would immediately stab anyone who walked through that door.

"Hey, where did you go just now?"

"I was too hungry, so I went out to buy some food. That's why I came back in a hurry. I wonder how Mr. Godfrey is doing right now?"

"His bandages need some changing. Let's go in."

The door handle turned and it was pushed open.

As they were about to walk in, the black figure rushed out and knocked down the two people at the door.

"Ahh!"

"Somebody, help! Arrest him!" The nurse shouted in a hurry as she saw the black figure escaping.

The people in the other wards heard their shouting and came out to see what's happening.

The black figure had already found a way to escape, and he ran in big strides as he headed to his escape route.

The nurse quickly walked over to the ward and took a look. She saw that Xavier's machine was still working, and that his vital signs were still stable.

She let out a sigh of relief and immediately called Theodore.

He had just returned to the company when he

received a call from the nurse.

He immediately returned to the hospital when he heard what had happened to Xavier.

The doctor on duty that night was Christopher. As he walked out after finishing his supper, he saw Theodore rushing in.

He pondered for a while then followed suit.

"What's going on?" Theodore asked as soon as he walked in. He walked over to Xavier's bed and let out a sigh of relief when he saw that his brother was still safe.

The nurse took the blame. "When I came back after buying a snack, I met another nurse at the door. As we were about to enter, a black figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere and knocked us over. Then, he ran away," she explained.

Theodore glanced at the nurse and asked angrily, "Where's the CCTV footage?"

"The director has already gone to investigate. He'll probably be back soon," the nurse replied. She felt guilty when she looked into his cold eyes.

Christopher came in from the door and said, "Don't you know how to hire a bodyguard?"

"It's none of your business," Theodore replied.

"I know it's none of my business. I came here because I saw the man in black running away hastily," Christopher said. He looked at them with a toothpick in his mouth and a proud look on his face.

When he heard him, Theodore turned around and asked, "So where's the person you saw?"

"How would I know? I just came back from supper and saw someone running out in a hurry. I thought he was a patient's family member who came in secretly, but I remembered the man's car

plate number," Christopher said. He thought about it carefully and was confident that he was able to remember.
