On the way out of South Hill Villa, Theodore sat in the car with a sullen face.
Moses, who was driving the car, looked at him several times through the rearview mirror in the car and said worriedly, "Mr. Godfrey, it's been so many years. We can't find anything, and Madam Madison won't admit it herself either. Besides, even if the evidence is conclusive, how can you just watch her go to jail?"
"Why can't I?" Theodore raised his head with a cold expression on his face.
Everyone thought that he couldn't do anything, even if he knew the truth. Everleigh thought so, Christopher thought so, and everyone in the Godfrey family thought so.
Just because Madison was his mother, and she belonged to the Godfrey family. No matter what she did, should the Godfrey family cover for her regardless?
What would they gain after covering for her? For so many years, she said that she'd done many things for the Godfrey family and for her son, but everything she did was for herself.
Moses shuddered and did not dare to say anything else. "Mr. Godfrey, where are we going now?"
"To the hospital."
After saying three simple words, Theodore turned his head and looked out of the window. He didn't say anything else.
Moses sighed in his heart silently.
Over the past few days, Theodore acted as if nothing had happened and talked about business as usual at work. As soon as he stepped out of the office, he had been running around. He had to go to the hospital to visit Madam Scott, and he was personally investigating what happened seven years ago.
If it went on like this, how could his body take it?
When the car arrived at the city hospital, it was almost midnight.
"Mr. Godfrey, it's already so late. Why don't I send you home to have a rest first? Madam Scott will be fine if you visit her tomorrow."
"No need, you go back first." Theodore got out of the car. "Tomorrow morning, eight o'clock."
Moses felt helpless, and he had no choice but to agree. He watched Theodore walk towards the in- patient department through the car window.
At that time, the lights of the inpatient wards had been turned off and only the ICU was still on. Furthermore, the nurse on duty was on patrol all night.
When Theodore came out of the elevator, he saw the nurse on duty dozing off.
"Mr. Godfrey." The nurse was awakened by his footsteps. She stood up from behind the desk and asked, "It's so late. What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to see Grandma. How is she today?"
"Madam Scott is doing fine." The nurse looked at the time. "Are you planning on visiting her now?"
Theodore nodded slightly.
Before the nurse answered, the warning lights on the desk suddenly flashed, and they kept beeping.
"What's going on?" In the nurse's station next door, the head nurse opened the door and stepped outside.
The nurse on duty's expression also changed. "It's the emergency bell of the ICU."
"What's the number of the patient?"
"It's Madam Scott." The nurse raised her head and looked at Theodore as she gave a hard shudder.
At this moment, the Trevino family's house had already settled in for bed.
Abraham arranged for Christopher to stay in the guest room. This action undoubtedly verified what Christopher said, which was the fact that Abraham already knew that they were not married.
Everleigh was sleeping in her own bed. She tossed and turned, and finally felt sleep coming to her mind. Suddenly, an urgent ringtone came from the bed.
"Hello?"
"What? I'll be right there!"
After a few words on the other end of the phone, Everleigh got up immediately and changed clothes. When she went out, Christopher just came out of the guest room with a serious face. "Have you also received a call?"
"Let's talk on the way." Everleigh took the car keys and went downstairs, followed closely by him.
They both received a phone call from the city hospital. It was from the intensive care unit, saying that something had happened to
Madam Scott.
On the way to the hospital, Everleigh was in urgent contact with the hospital, while the car was driven by Christopher.
