Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 253

"So?" Everleigh looked at Josephine and said, her tone a little more serious.

"Don't get me wrong," Josephine said calmly. "Theodore doesn't want to see any conflict between you and Aunt Madison, so he asked me to tell you not to go in. He will explain the situation to the dean."

Hearing this, Everleigh almost laughed out loud.

People would think that she and Madison had a conflict because of her, but who was truly the one causing problems?

Everleigh clenched her fists hard and felt the pain of her nails pinching her palm. Her expression was indifferent. "Who are you to pass a message on his behalf?"

If she remembered correctly, Theodore had told her before that the engagement between him and Josephine had already been cancelled.

Therefore, Josephine shouldn't be here.

As they were talking, the office door opened from the inside, and a tall figure stood behind Josephine. This was such an eyesore to Everleigh, no matter how many times she had seen it.

As soon as Theodore came out, he closed the door. At the same time, Madison's sharp and mean voice could be heard from within the office. The word 'sl*t' were still faintly heard.

"Theodore, I told Everleigh about everything, but she didn't listen to me." Josephine immediately put on an aggrieved look as soon as she saw him. "She thinks I'm not qualified to pass messages for you."

Hearing this, Everleigh had to admire the profoundness of their language. She casually changed a few words and the meaning of the whole sentence was completely misinterpreted.

She looked at Josephine seriously and was not willing to take the blame. She corrected her and said, "My original words are, who are you to pass messages on his behalf?"

A man was different from a woman, as a man's sensitivity to words was far less than a woman's. These two sentences did not differ much from each other in Theodore's ears.

His gaze swept over the closed door of the office. After confirming that it was tightly shut, he said, "Josephine is here to visit Grandma. I'll take care of the matters here. Everleigh, you should go back first."

"The city hospital is not under the jurisdiction of the Godfrey family. I was called by the dean, so it's his call to decide whether I should leave or not."

Everleigh's face was calm, and she didn't seem to appreciate their efforts at all. After saying this, she went past them and knocked on the office door.

"Everleigh." Theodore grabbed her arm and stopped her from knocking on the door. His cold eyes were filled with a grave expression.

She didn't even look at him and coldly said, "Let go."

"Must you make things difficult?" His voice was very oppressive. "I've told you, I can handle it. You don't have to worry about anything."

Everleigh felt his grip gradually tightening on her forearm.

Looking at this scene, Josephine secretly clenched her bag strap, and her delicate face was full of suppressed jealousy. In front of Everleigh, the man Josephine loved was worthless in her eyes.

The air was silent, as if this second was as long as a century.

"Why are you poking your nose into my business?"

Everleigh's voice was calm and fearinducing.

The grip on her forearm tightened before he slowly released it.
