Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 424

When Theodore returned, Benedict's heart was full of regret. If he had known something like that would happen, he wouldn't have agreed to Theodore's request.

If he didn't agree to it, the incident wouldn't have happened as well. The hospital's reputation was on the line.

Looking at how domineering Theodore was, Everleigh became much more calm. Whenever she was in trouble, she really wanted to have a man she could rely on. Now, she finally knew who that man was. It was Theodore.

He walked over to Benedict and said, "I'll talk to the family members of the deceased and get their permission to carry out an autopsy. Mr. Lawson, I believe that you'll be willing to cooperate with me, right?"

Benedict nodded after listening to his suggestion. Now that the incident had already happened, his only choice was to cooperate with him.

"Sure. The body will be kept in the morgue."

"Thank you, Mr. Lawson," Theodore said coldly. Then, his deep gaze fell on Everleigh. "I have to go back to the company. You can take a rest for a few days, so those reporters won't be pestering you."

She nodded. She agreed with him; news reporters were really irritating.

Plus, it wasn't really appropriate for her to work both at the hospital and in the company during controversial times.

"I'll go now. I'll give you a call if anything happens," Theodore spoke in a deep voice.

"Okay."

After he had left, she said to Benedict, "Mr. Lawson, I just got here from the company. I've checked the medicine's formula. There's no problem with it at all."

"The problem now is that the volunteer has died. We need to give the public a proper explanation," he responded.

"I understand, but Mr. Lawson, can you please tell me, who released the news about the patient's death?"

He was a little stunned. "I'm not sure about that. The nurses told me that a bunch of reporters were waiting outside. They were also the ones who informed me about the patient's death."

She looked over at Maxwell and Stainley. Both of them shook their heads, indicating that they had no idea as well.

She lowered her head. Just like what Theodore had said, the whole incident wasn't as simple as it seemed.

Perhaps, someone did it on purpose.

"Mr. Lawson, I guess I should leave now. Do inform me if there's any news."

"Sure." Seeing her serious face, Benedict didn't say anything more.

The next thing they had to do was to get to the bottom of the matter. Since Theodore had said that he would provide an explanation, they could only wait and see.

When Everleigh returned home, Alastair and Adrienne were sitting on the sofa. It was the weekend, so the two kids were staying there.

The both of them had been staying with the Meyer family for the past few days. If Abraham didn't insist on seeing the children, she would have continued to let them stay at the Meyer family's home.

"Mommy, you're back!" Adrienne said in her cute voice, but she sounded a little worried. Everleigh sensed it and was rather curious. "What happened? Why are you talking to me in such a tone?"

She pouted. "It's Alastair. He told me that you're in a little trouble."

Everleigh looked at her son who was sitting aside. He seemed expressionless, but there was some worry in his dark eyes.

"Nah, I'm fine. Now that I have some time to stay at home and take a break, isn't it great that I can spend more time with the both of you?" Everleigh coaxed her.

She felt touched that her children cared about her feelings.

It made her feel that she at least had her children by her side during hard times.

Hearing that, Adrienne immediately turned to Alastair and said, "I told you! Mommy will not be defeated easily!."
