Theodore's question was unnecessary. Although they hadn't seen each other for so many years, they knew a lot of things about each other.
They were all inarticulate people.
Especially after Xavier's legs were impaired, their meet-ups were shortened.
However, the affection between brothers couldn't be erased.
"I'll take care of this matter. You don't have to worry about it," Theodore suddenly spoke.
"Why? Are you really worried that I'll ruin your future?" Xavier stared at him with a gloomy look, and the anger in him gradually rose.
Could it be that after so many years of being brothers, he still couldn't trust him?
Theodore knew that Xavier was angry, but he wasn't upset at all. "I have other things to do. Give me some time. It's up to you whether you want to keep it or destroy it."
Xavier didn't say a word. Theodore noticed the relaxed expression on his face.
"Okay, but the final decision will be decided by me," Xavier uttered.
Theodore didn't answer him. Instead, he turned around and walked out.
When he arrived downstairs, Theodore ordered, "Go and tidy up the room. Tell him to visit my company more often if he has time."
"Mr. Theodore, you should know Mr. Xavier's temperament. He listens to you the most in the whole Godfrey family. I hope you can persuade him more," Lucas advised with a distressed look on his face.
He watched the two children grow up, and he didn't want anything to happen to either of them.
Theodore's eyes darkened. Without saying a word, he left the place.
The next day, when Everleigh got up, she thought that she would see warm sunshine. However, she saw the sky covered with dark clouds and there were a few flashes of lightning. The sky was dark and gloomy, giving people a sense of oppression.
"Fortunately, I don't have to go to work today. It's the best time for me to read at home." Everleigh was complaining, but her body language proved otherwise. She woke up early and washed up.
She was a self-disciplined person. Every single moment of her schedule was filled to the brim. It had become a habit of hers.
When she went downstairs, Alastair was already sitting in the living room, reading a book, while Adrienne was bored, leaning on the sofa, reading a comic book.
Selena also walked down, carrying her suitcase with her.
"Where are you going when it's about to rain?" Everleigh asked.
"I'm going to the airport. I'm going abroad to make up for the loss." Selena looked anxious, as if she was afraid that she could not catch her plane.
Everleigh quickly took two hard boiled eggs and a slice of toast from the dining table and ordered, "Eat them on the way. You'll faint if you board the plane with an empty stomach."
Without a word, Selena took the food and disappeared in the rain.
"Mommy, Aunt Selena cried for a long time last night." Adrienne waited until Selena was not in her sight before she spoke.
Everleigh turned around. "How did you know?"
"When I came out to drink water last night, I heard her crying, and she sounded really sad. Mommy, is Aunt Selena going away because she's upset?" Adrienne's little face frowned, and her black eyes were full of worry.
Everleigh's expression darkened. She knew that Selena was reluctant to part with Leon, but it was hard to talk about relationship issues. Furthermore, she didn't know where to start.
