Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 457

Everleigh was lost in her thoughts. Suddenly, she had a bad headache. It had been a long time, but there wasn't any progress at all. She was anxious to death.

Christopher sensed her distress and sighed softly, "You don't have to worry too much. Just have faith that we will be able to find out the truth. You were the one who told me that justice will prevail, right?"

"Wow, you're really a good learner." She smiled bitterly. There was a difference between comforting someone else and comforting oneself.

He didn't want her to take things too hard. He wanted her to take it easy; at least they had a glimmer of hope.

Since they had obtained the names of those people, it would be easier for the investigation to carry on.

A few days later, Elvir appeared in the hospital's ward once again, for the same reason. He was caught investigating and stalking a woman who was having an affair, and was beaten up badly.

At the same time, there was another man who was admitted to the hospital as well. He was more seriously injured than Elvir.

Christopher couldn't bear to look at his face directly, as it was full of bruises and cuts.

"Mr. Carter, shouldn't you be investigating the information? Why were you doing such a thing again?"

"Well, someone contacted me right after I finished investigating, and I wanted to make some extra money. I didn't expect the man's wife to be a professional boxer. She went all out!"

Elvir described the whole situation exasperatedly, as if he was trying to say that he would've returned some punches if that person wasn't a woman.

His voice was so loud that all the other patients in the room could hear him. They were all laughing and making fun of him.

"Ouch! It really hurts!" After he finished the story, he covered his face with his hands and cried out in pain.

Everleigh couldn't help but burst out in laughter as well. She then turned her head and looked at the other man next to Elvir. His face was red hot. His story of being cheated on was spoken of so loudly; of course he was embarrassed.

After the pain in his face eased a little, Elvir turned over to the man and said, "Well, there's nothing to feel ashamed of. Things like this are kind of a trend these days. If you really can't accept it, just file for a divorce. She won't get a single penny from you anyways. Our injuries are the best proof."

The man nodded; he knew that he couldn't live like that any longer.

Elvir patted him on the shoulder, comforting him and cheering him up.

Everleigh bought him some food before she got off work. He happened to wake up at the same time, and the redness in his eyes did not subside at all.

"Wait a minute, where did the man go?" Seeing that the man beside him was gone, Elvir asked in confusion.

"Oh, he's been discharged from the hospital. I heard that he is in a hurry to divorce his wife," she explained.

He then ate the food without saying anything. Everleigh wasn't in a hurry, so she waited for him to finish eating before she asked, "So, how's the investigation?"

"Twenty of them from the name list have changed their names. They are currently living in different places around the world, but I've managed to find three of them, so there are seventeen remaining," he replied in a low voice. At the same time, he raised his head to look at her.

"You don't have to feel discouraged. I believe that your friend has already completed his investigation," he continued.

"It's not that he doesn't trust you, he just wants to settle things as quickly as possible," she tried to explain.

"I understand. After all, I've been following up with this case for so many years now. Miss Trevino, what will you do when you find out who the murderer is?"

"Why are you asking?"

"I know that your parents' death has greatly hurt you, but what if the murderer is someone you didn't expect? Will you still stick to your principles?" Elvir's eyes suddenly became clear and bright, as if he was waiting impatiently for her answer.

Everleigh answered in a firm tone, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I'll definitely not let that person go, even if he's related to me. Don't my parents' lives matter?"

He was already used to such a response. He had heard such words and seen such reactions countless times. However, judging by her tone, he knew that she would definitely stick to her

morals.

"Thank you for telling me the news, I will continue my investigation. Mr. Carter, if it's possible, I hope that you can focus solely on my matter for the time being. Don't worry about the payment, I'll make sure you are satisfied with it. I also know that you've done so much for me just because you do not want to receive any money from my uncle." She had just thought it through.
