Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 233

"Xavier? Theodore's younger brother?" Everleigh thought she had misheard him.

She was familiar with this name. When she was in college, she found out that Theodore had a younger brother. The first time she'd heard of him was seven years ago when Xavier had a car accident. However, she had never heard Theodore mention him before that.

"Why did he set me up? He and I have never met."

"If we can understand their motives so easily, it would not be so difficult for us to investigate what happened." Christopher picked up his fork again and said. "I'm still asking for people to investigate the specifics. This girl is called Ling, and she's 19 years old. She's been in juvenile detention before and has a criminal record. She has helped Xavier a lot in secret."

"Wait a minute." Everleigh was no longer interested in the matters at the birthday banquet. Her mind was filled with new ideas. "So what you're saying is that the fact that the car was scrapped and that William was transferred has something to do with Xavier?" "My gut tells me so, but I don't have any evidence."

Everleigh knew that Christopher didn't come back suddenly just to celebrate her birthday, but she didn't expect him to bring back such contradictory news.

According to what he said, many of her previous assumptions had now been overturned.

If the car was related to Xavier, and William was also transferred because of him, then there was a great possibility that the incident seven years ago was related to Xavier and not Madison.

"How could it be him?" Everleigh had not the slightest recollection of the man, so why would someone she had never met, try to set her up?

"Don't think too much about it. It's still under investigation. Anyway, it's still related to the Godfrey family. Madison or Xavier, isn't it the same to you?"

They were all Theodore's family members, and most of their motives to scheme against her were because of him.

"Alright, don't think about it anymore. Eat something first. This sea urchin is not bad." Christopher flipped the document in her hand and threw it onto the tatami mat. Then, he picked up some sea urchin for her and put it on the dish in front of her.

Everleigh came to her senses and reluctantly nodded her head, but she was still absentminded.

Things seemed to be far more complicated than she had thought.

From Josephine to Madison, and then to Xavier, the search for the invisible mastermind seemed endless. Although everything seemed to go smoothly, she always felt that everything seemed to be orchestrated by an invisible hand. The closer she got to the truth, the more flustered she was.

It was already quite late after dinner. When Everleigh asked the waiter for the bill, she was told that someone had paid it.

"The bill was paid?" Everleigh was astonished, "Are you sure? Did someone pay the wrong bill?"

The waitress, who was wearing a kimono, said respectfully, "Yes, I'm sure it has been paid. It's on Mr. Godfrey's account."

Mr. Godfrey?

Before Everleigh came back to her senses, Christopher had put one hand on her shoulder and joked, "I didn't expect that I could benefit from you ever. However, paying the bill for the ex- girlfriend and the husband of the exgirlfriend is really too dramatic. It seems out of reach for the common man."

Everleigh elbowed him grumpily and said, "I can't shut you up."

She knew what Theodore was trying to express. When she saw him in the hospital, she knew that he was there to apologize for what happened the day before. However, she had just received Christopher's call back then, so she simply turned a blind eye to him. She didn't expect him to follow her to the restaurant.

Everleigh asked the waitress, "Where is he?"

"He has already left. Mr. Godfrey left after having a pot of tea here."

Hearing this, Everleigh frowned and subconsciously looked in the direction of the elevator.

She didn't know how long he had stayed here.

On the way back, Christopher kept asking about what had happened over the past month.
