Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 192

As the warm breath brushed across her neck, a feeling as if she had been electrocuted, seeped through the surface of her skin. The numb feeling seemed to have opened up her nerves and hit a certain part of her heart.

Thump, thump, thump.

Everleigh's brain was suddenly empty.

The calmness in Theodore's cold eyes disappeared without a trace. Even he didn't realize that his eyes were burning up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Dr. Trevino, your shoes..."

The maid's voice could be heard as the door opened.

Everleigh abruptly came back to her senses. With some unknown strength, she pushed Theodore away from her.

"Mr. Theodore..."

The young maid stood at the door with a shoe box in her hand. She was at a loss and asked, "What are you..."

At this moment, Theodore sat on the carpet and turned his head to give the maid a cold look.

The maid shivered. She looked at Theodore and then at the messy sheets on the bed. Her face immediately flushed red, and she didn't even dare to enter the room. "I didn't know you were here, Mr. Theodore. I'll leave the shoes here. I'll leave now. You guys continue... Continue..."

After saying that, the maid left the shoe box in a hurry and slipped out of the room.

Following the echo of the closed door, there was embarrassment and silence in the room.

Everleigh sat on the bed with the quilt tightly in her hand. Thinking of the close call she just had, she wished she could find a hole in the ground to bury herself in.

Why did she feel as if someone had caught her making out in secret?

After a long while, she let out a dry cough. She looked at Theodore, who had crawled up from the ground, and asked, "A- Are you alright?"

She was a doctor, so she had a lot of strength to begin with. She couldn't care less when she was in a desperate situation, and she had just pushed Theodore onto the ground. If she hadn't heard him wrongly, she had heard him snort. He had probably really fallen to the ground.

Theodore's expression was also very complicated. "What do you think?"

"Sorry, I didn't mean to... I..." Everleigh was a little embarrassed.

"What are you afraid of?"

Everleigh was speechless.

Theodore helped himself up from the bed. The distance between them was relatively safe. Normally, this wouldn't make other people feel uncomfortable, but under such circumstances, Everleigh couldn't relax at all. All of her nerves were tense.

"Don't worry. That's Grandma's servant. She has very strict rules to follow and won't spread anything out."

Hearing this, Everleigh was stunned. When she came back to her senses, Theodore had already walked to the wardrobe with his back to her. He took his own clothes and said, "Get changed and come out for a meal."

His tone had returned to its previous calmness. He took his clothes and left. After that, Everleigh looked at the door absentmindedly and had mixed feelings in her heart.

Even if she was not a doctor, as a normal woman, she was very clear about what had happened to her the night before, as long as she was not poisoned or unconscious.

Nothing happened that night; at least, what she was most worried about did not happen.
