Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 268

Alastair heard about it from Grandpa before he left the house. Grandpa seemed elated about it, so he thought that Everleigh would be glad to know about it as well.

"I will go back after work." She was indeed very happy.

Theodore felt very uncomfortable as he watched them having a conversation while they completely ignored his existence.

Adrienne was very considerate, so she didn't forget about him. "Mommy, Daddy and I will go have something to eat, but I'll be back early tonight."

"Okay." She nodded in agreement.

Theodore reached out his hand to Adrienne and led her away. Before he left, his eyes were still fixed on her face and his eyes were burning with determination.

After they left, Stainley slowly said, "He often comes to you."

"No, he is only paying a visit to the kids." She didn't understand why Theodore turned up here either.

However, none of this had anything to do with her.

Stainley gazed at her thoughtfully and did not say anything else.

Over the following days, he was still very kind to her. He either bought her flowers or some other things.

Christopher didn't pay much attention at first, but he had no choice but to intervene. Was Stainley trying to ruin his image?

People would start thinking that his wife was cheating on him.

One afternoon, Stainley came up to Everleigh carrying lots of goodies in his hands. However, she looked at him apologetically, "Stainley, I am not hungry, you don't have to...."

"That's right. You make me look like a husband who doesn't care about his wife at all." Christopher walked in with a smile on his face.

She let out a sigh of relief when she saw him coming. His presence made her feel much better.

Stainley also noticed the change in her expression and he felt upset. "Am I of no importance to Everleigh at all?" He thought.

"So what did you bring?" Christopher opened the bag as he spoke. When he saw what Stainley had brought, he sighed helplessly. "Can't you be more creative? Last time she already mentioned that she had enough food already. Stainley, it is nice that you are observant, but you need to do better."

Stainley always knew that he was a straightforward person, so he was not offended at all. He still looked at her with a gentle expression. "She said that she will never get sick of this."

Then, Christopher turned his head and looked at Everleigh. He smiled and said, "We are going to meet my sister later so we won't be back in the afternoon. You'll have to put in some extra work here." He then grabbed Everleigh and her bag before they left.

Stainley was left behind, but he did not say anything.

The two of them arrived at the cafeteria and Christopher said to Everleigh while pouring a cup of tea, "What's with Stainley? He is being overly passionate about you."

"I also don't know what happened. It's a relief that you showed up, otherwise, I wouldn't even know how to refuse him."

"You can't run away from him all the time," he said thoughtfully before an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

She had also deliberated this for a long time.

Then, they decided to go back after filling their stomachs. However, he told her before they left that he would handle Stainley. Everleigh felt bad for him as she seemed to be troubling him all this while.

"Go back on your own while I go handle some matters. Remember to take care." He knew exactly what's going on in her head; he even patted her head like she was his pet.

Everleigh slapped his hand off, "Don't touch my head like this."

"Hmph, stroking your head is nothing compared to stroking Adrienne's. You heartless woman." He snorted and walked in the opposite direction.
