Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 328

Everleigh looked down at the ring in her hand. It was the kind of design that she liked and it had their initials engraved on the back of it.

The letters looked messy. Theodore must have carved them on by himself.

She couldn't help but laugh at the image of him carving the ring with a knife. The people around her noticed her laugh and one of them asked, "Dr. Trevino, what are you laughing about?"

"I just thought of something funny that's all," she replied without looking up. Then, she slid the ring back onto her finger.

The person didn't say anything else and rested back in their chair for a good rest, tired from waking up too early in the morning.

After a more than ten hour flight, they arrived. They looked down at the sandy place and felt the heat in the air. They felt depressed just wondering what it would be like living here for a year.

"It's so hot."

"The car is here to pick us up; let's go." Everleigh saw a bus coming from their left. The bus had the name of their hospital on it, so it was surely there forthem.

All of them got into the bus and reached a rural area. They took out their cellphones to check for a signal but it was very weak. Even if they managed to make a call, they would be unable to hear the conversation properly from the other side.

"Alas... We're doomed," one of the doctors said in a depressed tone. They were all hoping for there to be electricity so that they could at least carry out some other activities.

Everleigh was very calm. Even though the environment was not ideal, the air was fresh. She looked at the trees in the distance, and it felt less hot.

The group reached their destination and they looked at an old hospital building in front of them. The paint was falling off the wall.

"No way."

"Go in, register yourselves, and take a rest after. We'll start work tomorrow." Everleigh was assigned to be the leader this time and the others had to follow her orders. One of the reasons she was made the leader was because Dr. Harrison was afraid that she would get bullied.

It was said that Mr. Lawson was made speechless by him and decided to allow Everleigh to be the leader of the group.

They went in to report for duty, and the locals welcomed them warmly. The locals specially arranged dorms for them. Even though there weren't air conditioners, they were allocated their own individual rooms so that they could rest properly during the night.

The hospital was in a rural area and there was not much entertainment around at night, the opposite of what they were used to.

"It's so boring here. There's no television and we can't make any calls. How do the people live here?"

"That's right. I don't even know what to do."

"I brought some board games with me. Are you guys interested?"

When everyone heard this, their interest was immediately piqued. They were willing to play board games to kill time; it was better than daydreaming.

"Dr. Trevino, are you going to join us?"

"No, you guys can go ahead. I'm going to unpack some things." Everleigh was not interested in playing board games. She would rather head back to her room to do some reading.

They didn't force her to join them. They sat down and started their game.

She went back to her room and switched on the lights. She switched on a mosquito repellant because the mosquitos were extra dangerous and she had to be careful.

She opened the luggage and unpacked everything from it. She picked up the bug repellant spray and some anti-inflammation ointment that Christopher gave her. They were all necessities despite the dangerous mosquitos. Everleigh saw a box full of items and the corner of her lips lifted into a smile as she thought about the day she got her medical report.

He told her about the incident seven years ago. Josephine was not the only one behind the plan. As it turned out, someone from the Godfrey family was secretly part of it.

"Everleigh, do you know anyone from the Godfrey family?"
