Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 464

Everleigh tilted her head slightly upward, with a hint of coldness in her eyes. "I'll be waiting."

The woman had lost all her poise, so she turned around and left.

Since Everleigh asked her to head straight to the office, she proceeded to do so.

When the nurses saw the scene, they all gathered around her and asked, "Dr. Trevino, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Just get back to work," Everleigh responded with a smile. She didn't look embarrassed at all.

Despite this, a red mark from the slap could still be seen clearly on her face.

It was obviously painful.

Although the nurses felt bad for her, they didn't say anything. One of them went straight to the pharmacy and took some ointment to help relieve the swelling on Everleigh's face.

Everleigh was very grateful. "Thank you, Berry."

"You're welcome. Sometimes, we're just unlucky to face situations like this. It's all part of our job."

Everleigh smiled bitterly. She knew that it was a common encounter for healthcare workers.

That person was clearly looking for trouble. However, she had messed with the wrong doctor.

"Take a rest first. I'll get back to work now." Looking at Everleigh's serious expression, Berry didn't want to disturb her.

The news about Everleigh's encounter had spread all over the hospital.

Christopher heard about it as soon as he woke up from a short nap. He went over to see Everleigh. Seeing that she was working as if nothing had ever happened, he asked, "What happened?"

"Someone accused me of mistreating a patient."

He chuckled, "But you look like you're not bothered at all."

"Why should I be bothered? That woman was clearly trying to set me up. Even if I get infuriated, it won't do me any good. Why don't I just wait and see what she can do to me?" Everleigh responded as she put down the medical record book in her hands.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, showing an indifferent smile in his beautiful eyes. "Do you know who it is?"

She shook her head. Although she wasn't very sure who it was, she knew that a doctor's duty was to save people, not offend people.

Besides the Godfrey family and the Jenkins family,

she had never offended anyone else.

She knew that Wilson didn't do it, as it wasn't something he would do. His game plans were much more wicked and she wouldn't even have a chance to fight back. Moreover, she had heard from Theodore that Xavier was slowly oppressing and reducing his power.

He would never make such a rash move unless he had no other choice.

If so, then the only possible suspect was from the Jenkins family...

Christopher noticed the grim look on her face, as if she was thinking about something. He waved his hand in front of her eyes. "Hello? Do you have someone in mind?"

"Well, basically yes. Let's just wait." Everleigh came back to her senses and put on a faint smile, which made him feel at ease.

He then looked at her suspiciously, he wasn't sure if she was really telling the truth.

He thought to himself that it'd be better for him to start an investigation in order to protect her from any harm or danger.
