Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 256

Mrs. Godfrey's hands trembled and she pointed at Theodore for a long time, but she didn't say a word. Her eyes rolled and she passed out directly.

"Aunt Madison." Josephine supported her as her voice rose a few octaves. She glanced at Theodore, signaling him to do something.

He said without turning his head, "Moses, send her to the doctor."

"Yes, Mr. Godfrey." Without hesitation, Moses picked up Mrs. Godfrey and went to find a doctor. Josephine wanted to stay, but she knew her place, so she could only leave with Mrs. Godfrey.

Everleigh seemed to be watching a play, and Theodore's words suddenly came to her mind, "I'll handle it." She had heard these words many times.

It'd never come to fruition before, but it was beyond her expectations that day.

"Are you satisfied with that?"

"Does it matter whether I am satisfied or not? I will still be driven out of Ocpeace City by your mother." Although her voice was calm and unremarkable, it could not cover up the irony.

Theodore fell silent once more. He turned his head and looked at that cold face. His heart ached. Since when were they reduced to nothing except cold insults?

At this time, the operating theater's doors were opened, and Christopher came out from inside. He took off his mask, revealing his handsome face. His voice was clear but tired. "Everything is fine. You guys can relax."

Everleigh also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Helen was the only one she cared about in the Godfrey family. Now that Helen was safe, she was relieved.

"But we still need to observe her. Everleigh, come back with me. I happen to crave Hilda's cooking." Christopher said in a teasing tone, as if the behavior of the people in the ward was not his concern.

Everleigh nodded, turned around, and walked out without looking at Theodore.

Meanwhile, his heart was filled with bitterness.

Everleigh and Christopher got in the car. He yawned and said, "I was paged before I could get enough sleep. Mr. Lawson originally wanted to page you, but he thought something was wrong and came to me."

"Hmm." "Mr. Lawson is just making himself suffer. He bowed to the Godfreys' power so quickly. What happened to his desire to serve the people?" He said in a disdainful tone.

Everleigh listened quietly, without any expression. On the contrary, she recalled Theodore's words just now.

Was he trying to atone for his sins?

He felt that he could make it up to her just by being indifferent to Madison. Alas, he thought too naively. It was as if his question of "are you satisfied?" would solve all her sufferings over these years.

Christopher saw that she remained silent, so he turned his head and glanced at her. Her pupils were full of frost, like ice and snow falling. She held the steering wheel tightly and seemed to be controlling her emotions.

He reached out and held the back of her hand, "if you want us to die together, just say the word and we'll do it."

She was jarred to her senses by his words, and only then did she realize that her foot was flooring the accelerator.

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay. Just do it." He didn't mind her state at all, as if it didn't matter if he died with her.

She slowed down and took a deep breath. "This is your car. Are you sure you won't feel bad if I crash it?"

"I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me. You can't crash it. You have to take care of it."

Everleigh curled his lips and didn't say anything more.

"I'll ask Felicia to help you get your job back in a couple of days."

"There's no need."
