Listening to his words, Felicia didn't have much feelings about it. After all, they were classmates in junior high school. They had all grown up since, and everyone was busy with their own lives.
It was very difficult for them to meet again.
"Nah, it's not really a coincidence. We're all living in the same city, so it's not really hard for us to meet each other, right?" She asked.
"You do have a point there, but it's been five years since we last met, isn't it?" Lenold thought carefully.
She didn't care much about it. Even if they didn't meet for five years, so what? They would only have a casual chat when they do meet each other.
She had some food, and prepared to leave. Before leaving, she told Lenold, "You can look for bodyguards, I'll pay for them. Just make sure that both my brother and sister-in-law are safe."
Upon hearing her words, he frowned subconsciously as he had forgotten that Everleigh was already part of the Meyer family.
Felicia put a check on the table and then left.
Everleigh had an indescribable feeling when she saw Felicia being so straightforward.
"I've finished eating too, I have to get back to work now," she said.
"Alright." Cecil answered. After she cleared the coffee table, she took a garbage bag with her and went out.
After the both of them left, only then did Zeldan speak, "The scarf that you wore at the training base last time, did it belong to her?"
"Have you been going through my stuff?" Lenold replied calmly.
Zeldan chuckled. He wasn't ashamed of being exposed. Instead, he answered naturally, "It's not that I went through your things on purpose. It's just that you didn't close your drawer when you went out for a mission last time, so I saw it by accident."
Lenold didn't believe what he said.
For the past few years, he had been in the army, and had been keeping his feelings for Felicia in his heart. After all, he was a member of the Four Great Households, so it was easy for him to investigate a person.
He also clearly knew how Felicia achieved all the success she had, so he still had deep feelings for her.
The feelings were still there after so many years.
When Cecil came back, the both of them shut their mouths tacitly. Lenold then took out his phone to call his former teammates as he needed to find some bodyguards.
His teammates were quick to respond.
After Theodore left the company, he went straight to the hospital to look for Everleigh. She glanced at him and wasn't surprised. "Have you settled everything?"
"Yep, I'm unemployed now." He sat down on the chair. After that, he picked up a piece of fruit that was placed on her table and put it into his mouth.
She lowered her eyes. "Did you just come here straight away? Didn't your father say anything?"
"I bet he's at odds with Xavier right now," he snorted.
He didn't want to talk too much about them.
They could do whatever they wanted to. He couldn't care less.
"So, when are you going to carry out your plan?" Everleigh asked.
"I guess I'll do it after some time. I need some rest right now. I haven't been feeling at ease ever since I took over Godfrey Group. Now that I'm free, I can finally do some things that I enjoy." Theodore felt relaxed as he spoke of it.
She chuckled. "That's true. You haven't had a good rest in these few years."
He looked at her with deep feelings, and there were other emotions in his gaze.
"Why don't you go out with me for a short trip? I can help you take a leave."
"Nah, there are too many patients in the hospital right now. All the other doctors are on leave. The dean would definitely reject my leave application." She wanted to go out for a trip too, but unfortunately, she knew that the dean would not agree.
He didn't insist any further. After thinking for a while, he said, "Tomorrow is Sunday. You should be able to have a rest, right?"
