Theodore's voice was cold. It was obvious that he wasn't happy with Moses' talkative attitude.
Hearing that, Moses quickly corrected himself and said, "I'll look into it right away."
Theodore hung up his phone and drove to look for Leon. Normally, this kid would go clubbing when he suffered a huge blow. He was Theodore's cousin after all, so he couldn't just stand by and let him be.
Sure enough, Theodore went to the club and found him.
Leon had already drunk a few glasses of wine.
"If you really want to drink yourself to death, then I have nothing to say. However, don't you want to fight for it before you die?" Theodore walked over, picked up a glass and poured himself a cup of wine.
Leon stared at him with red eyes and smiled bitterly. "What else can I say now?"
"Even if you can't, you have to say it. I know that you weren't able to let go of Selena all this time, but didn't you know that she had been trying to let go of you by dating other people?"
Theodore's words weren't just baseless speculations. He knew that such a woman wouldn't give up her feelings so easily.
She had gone overboard many times before, but it was all directed at Everleigh. Now that he saw her so concerned about Selena, he believed that the two of them had really let go of the past.
However, this brat still had a worried look on his face.
"Is there still hope for me?"
"You've met countless people in the past. Now that you're finally willing to settle down, your parents will feel much more at ease. Unfortunately, you still have to pay for what you did in the past."
Theodore spoke meaningfully. Other than sympathy, he didn't have any other feelings for him.
Leon was deep in thought. His turbid eyes gradually lit up.
Theodore looked at him and knew that he had a plan in mind. He didn't say anything more.
After Everleigh reached the hospital, Christopher came over and asked, "Have you asked?"
"Ask what?" She looked confused.
Seeing her expression, he knew that she had put the matter to the back of her mind, but he had been busy looking into it.
She knew that she was in the wrong, so she said modestly, "I'll call and ask now."
"Hmph, what's the use of asking now? You might as well go there straight away."
"That's a good idea. You still have patients to attend to so help me keep an eye on my patients too. I'll go to the Jenkins family now," she said as she walked away. Before he could speak, she had already disappeared.
Christopher's lips twitched. He felt that he had dug a hole for himself.
Everleigh took a taxi and arrived at the entrance of the Jenkins family. However, the butler told her that Saniogo was not at home.
"Did he go to the company?"
"Yes, Miss, please come in and have a seat." The butler did not forget how those people treated her before. Now that she was an 'important person' to Saniogo, it would be impossible for him to let other people give her the cold shoulder.
"Never mind, I'll come back tomorrow." She didn't want to see him in the company just to talk about this so she decided to try again the day after.
She returned to the hospital. Christopher had just received a few more patients. "You came back at the right time. How is it?"
"He's not at home. He's at the company, it's inappropriate for me to go to the company to ask." She poured a glass of water for herself. After going back and forth for such a long time, she was tired.
He was speechless. "I've done all your work but you told me that you didn't finish it. Everleigh, can't you be bothered?"
"I didn't do it on purpose. I'm just caught up with something else." It really wasn't intentional; if only she hadn't been bothered about Selena.
She even asked clearly.
