Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 196

Before getting off work, Everleigh received a text message from Theodore saying that he had arrived.

God knew how he knew her work schedule. Doctors were so specialized that their daily schedules were arranged according to the conditions of the patients and the clinic.

Everleigh changed out of her white coat and clocked out of work. Holding her phone, she looked around the hospital's entrance but didn't see Theodore's car. When she heard a honk behind her, she turned her head and saw a familiar face.

The window of the black car's driver's seat was rolled down, revealing Theodore's figure. His white shirt was rolled up till his forearms and he placed one hand on the steering wheel. His fingers were long and clean.

It turned out that he drove there by himself.

"Get in."

When Everleigh heard the brief words, she came to her senses, hurriedly nodded and replied, "Oh." Then, she reached out to pull open the door of the back seat.

She couldn't open the door, even though she spent a long time trying to open it. "Your car door is not..."

"Sit in the front," Theodore's voice came from inside the car. His tone wasn't one to accept rejection.

Everleigh was stunned for a moment and was about to ask, "Why?" However, she swallowed her words and silently circled around the car and sat in the front passenger seat.

The car drove away from the entrance of the city hospital. Seeing Theodore driving, Everleigh couldn't help but ask, "Why are you suddenly driving on your own?"

For someone like Theodore, he usually had very few opportunities to drive himself. It was all thanks to the chauffeurs who came to pick him up and drove him around.

Theodore said, "I drive occasionally."

"Oh." Everleigh pulled up the corners of her mouth and said, "That's good."

There had been nothing to talk about between the two of them. Other than Helen's illness, it was almost impossible to talk about anything else. The car suddenly became quiet.

Everleigh knew that Theodore was not a talkative person. He was used to a quiet atmosphere, so there was no need for her to deliberately find a topic to talk about. She had planned to close her eyes and rest for a while, but Theodore's voice suddenly broke the silence.

"Was the hospital busy today?"

Everleigh was stunned for a moment. After half a second, she came to her senses and said, "So-so, just like usual; hospitals are all the same."

"Did you run into any trouble at work?"

"Trouble? What exactly do you mean?" Everleigh looked at Theodore in confusion.

Theodore's brows furrowed slightly as a subtle emotion flitted across his eyes. "It's nothing."

Everleigh felt puzzled, but it was not good for her to ask questions.

After driving for a while, a phone suddenly rang in the car. The car's display screen showed the word "Leon". Everleigh took a glance at it from the corner of her eyes and took the initiative to look out of the window.

Her attitude towards Leon was similar to Cecil's attitude towards Theodore. She didn't like him at all.

Probably all the women in the world thought that their best friend's ex- boyfriend was rubbish and not worthy of their perfect bestie at all.

"What's the matter?"

Theodore, who was beside her, tapped the 'accept' button. He didn't try to avoid her. Instead, he switched it to speaker mode.

"Why did you take so long to answer the phone? I haven't finished what I told you yet. You just follow what I taught you. I can't do business and make money, and you can't get along with women."
