Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 172

After the consultation ended, Everleigh came out of the conference room. As she walked, she explained the pros and cons of several plans to Theodore.

"The advantage of Mr. Lawson's plan is that if the surgery is successful, there will be no complications. But after all, there would be an operation. Grandma is old and her body might not be able to take it. Dr. Harrison recommended conservative treatment, but the disadvantage of conservative treatment may be worse than delaying."

"What about your opinion?"

Everleigh frowned and said, "I'm more inclined to Dr. Harrison's recommendation, but I can compromise on it. Firstly, I will keep to the treatment, and then keep Grandma hospitalized for observation. However, I'm afraid that Grandma won't like it if she has to stay in the hospital for too long."

"Then, we'll follow your plan."

Everleigh was slightly stunned. "Don't you want to think about it more?"

Very few patients had family members who were as decisive as Theodore when it came to making decisions. After all, there were both advantages and disadvantages in their plans. These were decisions that determined a person's life. The doctors could only provide them with choices and could not afford to take on any risks.

Theodore's expression was cold and resolute as he said in a concise manner, "I trust you."

Everleigh was dumbstruck. She looked at the man next to her in astonishment.

Theodore said, "You don't have to worry about Grandma. I'll persuade her to stay in the hospital for observation." "The elevator has arrived." Theodore's voice pulled back Everleigh's thoughts.

She came back to her senses and followed him out of the elevator.

Before they arrived at the ward in the inpatient department, they heard children's laughter coming from the ward.

"Great-Grandma, you lost. You have to stick another sticker."

"Okay, I'll stick another sticker."

"I'll pick the mermaid one for you!"

Everleigh couldn't be more familiar with the

girl's voice. She and Theodore looked at each other and opened the door hurriedly.

"Adrienne? Alastair? Why are you here?"

At this moment, in the living room of the ward, the carpet was covered with the children's toys. Helen was seated in the middle of the two children with a red rope in her hand. Her face and arms were covered with cartoon stickers. When she looked up, Everleigh's expression changed.

"Umm... Grandma, are you alright?"

When Helen saw Everleigh come back, she smiled and said, "How can I not be alright? Everleigh, your children are so cute and clever. If I have these two children at home, I would be able to wake up laughing even if I fall asleep. I really don't know how Theodore could be so lucky."

Upon hearing this, Everleigh knew that Helen had misunderstood her and was about to explain.

Adrienne smiled at Everleigh and said, "Mommy, you're back! Alastair and I went to find you and you were not there. The nurse said that you were here, so we came here!"

Before Everleigh could speak, Adrienne's eyes lit up and she shouted to the person behind Everleigh, "Daddy!"

"Adrienne," Everleigh tried to stop her but it was too late. Looking at Helen's clear-minded look, Everleigh felt that she wouldn't be able to clear up the misunderstanding no matter what.

"Daddy, give me a hug!" Adrienne raised her chubby arms to Theodore who had just entered the door. Her voice was extremely sweet and adorable.

Everleigh was so worried and she had no time to tend to the two children anymore. She explained to Helen in a hurry, "Grandma, I'm sorry. The children are insensible. It's not what you heard. Theodore and I..."

"A child might be insensible, but am I also insensible?" Helen blinked at Everleigh and said, "Everyone has been young before. Everleigh, you don't have to explain. I understand it all."

What did she understand?

Everleigh quickly signaled to Theodore with her eyes, trying to get him to explain, but it was as if he didn't see her. Instead, he walked straight past her and picked up Adrienne who was lying on the ground, begging for a hug. His actions were extremely natural, as if he did it often.
