Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 155

Many relationships come to an end on good terms, and reminiscing the past was nice. As to why they finally came to an end, Theodore still couldn't comprehend the reason, but Everleigh understood.

The next morning, Theodore was woken up by the knock on his door.

"Mr. Godfrey," Moses said as he came in with a serving tray and closed the door. "I guess you're pretty much awake. Have some breakfast," he continued.

Moses put the tray down on the tea table and went to the bedside to help Theodore up. He did it carefully, trying hard not to disturb his wound. "Mr. Godfrey, before Dr. Trevino left, she instructed that your wound should not come in contact with water. You have to change the bandages every two days and you must be on a bland diet," he said.

At the mention of Everleigh, Theodore's eyes darkened a little. His gaze fell on the couch where she sat last night, both intentionally and unintentionally. "When did she leave?"

"She left around five o'clock in the morning," Moses said. He held Theodore to the couch.

"Dr. Trevino also bought the breakfast."

Theodore's gaze landed on the coffee table. The oatmeal and side dishes were served on the tray, along with a hard- boiled egg that already had the shell peeled. He didn't know whether it was Moses or Everleigh who peeled it.

Moses's voice came from the side, "Mr. Godfrey, the police have never come to ask. It seems that they have been held back by the chairman."

The word "chairman" came to Theodore's ears, calling his conscience awake.

It had been many years since Wilson left the Godfrey Group, but his position as the shareholder remained. Everyone, whether they knew him or not, addressed him as the chairman.

Moses said carefully, "Do you want to give the chairman a call? If there is a miscommunication, it wouldn't be good."

Theodore's expression darkened a little and he said, "If I explain in detail, it will only make things worse."

Not to mention this incident was far more complicated than expected.

"The main concern is that no one would have ever thought that Mrs. Godfrey was the one who assigned someone to kidnap Hansen." Moses frowned, continuing, "This case is confusing. If we don't explain it clearly, there will definitely be a misunderstanding on the chairman's side."

"Let it go. Even the mastermind is calm, so what's there for you to worry about?" Theodore said. He held the bowl of oatmeal, picked up some side dishes and slowly enjoyed his breakfast. He seemed like he didn't care about the kidnapping case at all.

Moses was flabbergasted.

How could he not worry? If the case was investigated thoroughly, Theodore could not escape from getting involved in it.

"Mr. Godfrey, I have to head back to the company now. Send me the documents that need to be signed later," Moses said.

After the kidnapping case, Theodore was injured, so he worked from home to handle the documents. He also refused to attend any dinners or events. He used the excuse that he was not in the pink of health and needed to rest for a period of time.

Theodore replied with a grunt and listened to the sound of the bedroom door being closed gently. In the silence, he looked down at the side dishes on the plate slowly, and his gaze gradually became more profound.

There were reasons behind his uneasiness. In fact, whether one's feelings were true or not, was something that could be felt.

In the conference room of the city hospital, the medical staff who volunteered to join the countryside medical team had just attended the meeting. Everleigh came out of the conference room with the conference documents. The elevator was packed, thus she was unable to enter.

"You go first. Let's wait for the people downstairs," Christopher and Everleigh said. They took the initiative to step out and let the other doctors and nurses go first.

While waiting for the next elevator, Christopher asked Everleigh, "Why did you say that you wanted to postpone going to the countryside with Dr. Carter just now? Don't you want to go there?"

Everleigh replied, "No, there's something that I need to delay for a few days. I just can't go with the medical team. Hasn't the event been promoted several days ago? I will arrive before the official medical event."

"Alright." Christopher raised his eyebrows and said, "I thought you didn't want to go."

"No." Everleigh hesitated for a while and then confessed, "Theodore was injured."
