Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 557



Chapter 557

A ghost of a smile touched Wilson's lips, and there was a sparkle in his intelligent eyes. "Of course, we should show our sincerity in doing business. I'm not sure if you are satisfied with my sincerity, Miss Hayes?"

Diana laughed softly, but her eyes were still as piercingly-cold as ice. "I'm satisfied, but I want to appraise. Do you think I'll believe you just because you say so?"

"Sure, I'll come again tomorrow. Miss Hayes, make sure you appraise it thoroughly." He did not stay for too long. He got up and left.

There was not much to say, and it was better to leave it where it should be.

If he had said too much, it might backfire on his plans.

After he left, Diana was indeed swayed. There was no way out for her anymore. Even if she had money, no one was willing to work for her. It was not a bad idea to work hand in hand with Wilson and drain the shares of the Godfrey family.

However... She had to do something more.

The next day, Wilson visited again, and Diana readily graced their agreement with her signature.

'Tve already written it down. The money will be transferred to your account soon."

"Miss Hayes, you're a straightforward person. The Hayes family must have truly abandoned you."

"Mr. Godfrey, you don't need to say such things, I won't fall for your words. However, I have one condition, and I wish to get your agreement."

"Shoot." He raised his eyebrows slightly. He knew that this woman would not comply easily.

She smirked, her eyes spilling avarice. "I want to own the Hayes family."

He arched his eyebrows and said, "The Hayes family is with the government. Are you sure you can handle them?"

"I understand the government's protection, but I only want the wealth of the Hayes family. All their business records are in the hands of Jaseh, and none of his three children are built to operate a business. It's more than reasonable for me to get them."

"I can help you, but I won't care about your means of getting them."

"Your word is all it takes. I look forward to our pleasant cooperation." She stretched out her slender hand in front of him.

They shook hands, indicating that they had reached an agreement.

A few days had passed. After Everleigh made sure that everything was under control, she went back. The hospital was being watched over by Stainley. Furthermore, Theodore couldn't afford to waste too much time away from his company.

The same went for the Meyer family, who went back to their home respectively, save Felicia.

The Hayes family had all returned to investigate Diana's whereabouts.

They had already released the news to the public and were sure that many people had read it. Diana had nowhere to hide if she returned to the country.

Everleigh and Theodore returned to the Trevino family home. Leon and Selena had been accompanying Alastair and Adrienne.

"Alastair, Adrienne."

"Daddy, Mommy." Adrienne dumped the toy in her hand and hugged Theodore's legs. Her chubby little face was full of smiles.

"Adrienne, did you miss me?" He picked her up and kissed her on the face.

"Yes, I did," she replied in a childish voice and pressed her little face against his.

When Leon saw the two of them coming back, he asked, "Why didn't you inform me earlier so that we could pick you up?"

Everleigh looked at him, who had clearly gained some weight. "Leon, didn't you go back?"

"Why would I go back? Isn't it a better choice to stay here?" He honestly didn't want to leave. He felt happy staying in the Trevino family, compared to the Allen family, which was always enshrouded in a grieving-like atmosphere.

"It's better here."

Everleigh couldn't be bothered to care about it.

"I'll go up and rest."

"Everleigh..." Selena voiced out. Looking at her tired look, she thought for a moment and didn't speak.

Everleigh could tell that she had something to say. "Yes?"

"It's okay. Well talk about it when you're all rested." Selena shook her head and decided to leave it for later.

Everleigh was confused, but still, she went upstairs to rest. Theodore was also very tired and slept in the guest room. If Leon could stay in the Trevino family, he thought that he could too.

He really couldn't take it anymore.

Everleigh knew what was on his mind, so she didn't care about it.

When she woke up in the evening, Leon and Theodore were talking to Abraham. Theodore spoke the most, constantly calling Abraham "Dad".

She shook her head and went straight to the kitchen where Selena and Hilda were cooking.

She felt a little emotional when she saw them cooking. Selena had never entered the kitchen before, as she felt that the smoke was overwhelmingly choking.

"Everleigh, why are you standing here? Come in," Selena shouted with a smile when she saw her standing by the door. She was still holding an onion in her hand.

Everleigh came to her awareness and walked in to help with the cooking.

"When did you start helping in the kitchen?" She asked in confusion.

Selena smiled faintly. "The production team once held a cooking competition, and I picked up the interest from that moment. I purposely came to look for Hilda to learn a few tricks."

Hilda continued, "Miss Selena is very attentive when cooking. Master Abraham enjoys her cooking very much."

Everleigh smiled and didn't ask any more questions. The three of them were busy in the kitchen. When Hilda served the food, she once again felt happiness in the family.

Just like now.

Two daughters were cooking in the kitchen, and two sons-in-law were conversing with their father- in-law in the living room. The scene was indeed heartwarming.

At the dinner table, Adrienne talked a lot as usual. The whole family was sitting together and they were very considerate.

Theodore served Everleigh some vegetables and peeled the shrimps for her.

Such actions stumped both Leon and Abraham, especially Leon, who had never witnessed him doing such things for others. He couldn't believe what he saw.

"Theodore, what... What are you doing?"

"Can't you tell what I'm doing?" Theodore asked coldly. Anyone with a pair of eyes could see very well what he was doing.

Leon zipped his mouth. Then, he peeled a shrimp and gave it to Selena.

She slowly turned and glanced at him, then replied in a cold tone, "I'm allergic to seafood."

"Uncle Leon, you are trying too hard," Adrienne laughed loudly.

She didn't care about the occasion at all.

Abraham couldn't help but laugh. Leon didn't even know about the allergy but still desired to be with Selena. Abraham wished that he could put some MORE effort.

After the meal, when Everleigh came out of the shower, she saw Selena sitting in a chair and going through the medical book on her desk.

"Why are you reading so many books in the middle of the night?"

"When you can't fall asleep, try reading them. It's the panacea for insomnia." Everleigh walked over and picked up one of the books, and put it beside the pillow. It seemed to be on the night's to-read list.

Selena took a deep breath and said, "Everleigh, I came here to tell you something."

"About the Allen family, perhaps?"

Selena's eyes widened as she was curious about how she knew about it.

Everleigh puffed a laugh and reached out to pat her head. "After all these years, do you still think I don't understand what kind of person you are?" "Hey, we're all familiar with each other, despite not being biologically related."
