His smile grew even wider. "You're here to ask about Jorben?"
"Sort of. I think there's something off with this person but I can't tell what's wrong with him." Everleigh didn't hide how she felt. Whenever she thought of Jorben, she felt very strange.
If she was asked for her opinion, she would say that her first impression of him was not good.
"It's Selena's freedom to like him. You can't stop her from doing that."
"I'm not going to stop her and I'm not against it either, but it's always better to be careful," she explained.
Theodore had no choice but to let Moses investigate this matter when he saw how serious she was.
"The results will be out in the afternoon. Well have lunch together later." He didn't care about other people's matters; it would be enough as long as he cared about Everleigh.
She nodded. She couldn't be too anxious.
The morning passed quickly. She was very happy about the results of her research.
"It won't take long to succeed." She had devoted herself to scientific research until she'd forgotten the purpose she came for.
He wouldn't remind her either. He had already spoken to the authorities so they should at least be able to see some results.
What's more, Talbot was still waiting for them. His career's success was also one of the major businesses in Ocpeace City.
It was a good thing for him.
"It's noon already. Let's have lunch."
"Okay. I'll get all the data ready first," Everleigh said without raising her head as she continued to type on the keyboard.
Theodore wasn't in a hurry. He sat patiently and waited for her.
About ten minutes later, she had finished dealing with the data. She turned off the computer, stretched, and said, "Done, let's eat."
The two of them arrived at the restaurant. He ordered her favorite dishes and she ate quite a lot. She had a good appetite.
"With the current research results, when will it get listed?"
"I'm already done with the final stage and I'll proceed to the clinical trial next. I've already found a patient with heart disease in the hospital. I'll take over ten of the samples and monitor them everyday." Everleigh had already arranged everything properly, she's just waiting to use the machine.
Upon hearing her words, Theodore's lips curled into a smile. "This is the first time I've been so relaxed in my work."
"In the past, you always bore it alone, so of course you would be tired. Now that I've shared half of the burden for you, the result will definitely be different."
"That's true." He didn't deny it. If it wasn't for her helping him, he wouldn't have been able to start quickly.
She chuckled and said, "Now that you know, why don't you investigate that guy for me?"
He hadn't even had a chance to open his mouth before he saw Leon walking in from the entrance.
Leon, dressed in suit and leather shoes as usual, strode over. His eyes were not as cold as last time, but were full of panic.
"Is it true that Selena has a boyfriend now?"
Everleigh was very familiar with his voice and looked at him with some consternation in her eyes. "She..."
It was not surprising for Theodore to see him here. Moses told him that he met Leon during the investigation and told him everything, and this scene followed.
