Theodore sat in his chair and spoke to Xavier, telling him that Godfrey Group had already been managed by Wilson.
"Xavier, don't you want to get revenge? If you don't wake up soon, you'll probably lose this opportunity," he said indifferently.
He was looking hard at his face, but there was still no movement from the man on the bed.
There was a hint of disappointment in Theodore's eyes. What Xavier cared about the most was Godfrey Group. Now that the Godfrey family was under Wilson's control, it would be good if this message could stimulate him.
When Everleigh walked over, she heard Theodore's words.
She was shocked. She pushed open the door and walked in.
"Theodore," she called out.
He turned around and asked, "Aren't you going to work? Why are you back?"
"I want to ask you if it was Wilson's idea," she asked.
Theodore nodded. It wasn't a big deal anyway.
She was not surprised when she got her answer. Wilson would really do anything to get power.
As long as it was beneficial to him, he would do it.
That included the sacrifice of a life.
"Everleigh, you should continue on with your work. I'll let you know if there's any news," Theodore replied. He knew that she was concerned about it, and he didn't want to keep this from her.
She nodded and turned back to resume her work.
A day quickly passed by. Theodore was also working at the hospital, taking care of Xavier at the same time.
That evening, Alastair and Adrienne also came. It was Everleigh who asked them to come over, mainly to accompany Theodore.
Adrienne was really a chatterbox. After she arrived at the hospital, her mouth had never stopped talking. At Xavier's bedside, she looked at him and said, "Uncle Xavier, you are so handsome."
"When Uncle Xavier wakes up, I'll let him bring you out to play," Theodore replied.
"Alright, I want to go to the amusement park with him," Adrienne said with great expectation.
Upon hearing this, Theodore felt a little uncomfortable. Xavier hadn't been to an amusement park for many years because of his
legs.
"The time will come," he replied.
"Adrienne, come eat something. Don't disturb Uncle," Alastair said indifferently.
Adrienne nodded obediently, sat on the sofa, and started to eat. Halfway through her meal, she remembered something.
"Daddy, was Mommy with you last time when she was not at home?" She raised her head and asked innocently.
"Are you against Mommy and I being together?" Theodore had never asked such a question before.
He should grab this chance while he could.
Adrienne hadn't even opened her mouth to speak but Alastair said first, "What's the use of being against it? Doesn't Mommy like it?"
"That may be the case, but you are all still my children," Theodore said.
"You've never even raised us but you still consider yourself our father." Alastair's cold words made Theodore shut his mouth.
He had only given them life, but he didn't raise them. How could he say that he was their father?
He probably was never concerned about how their mother was for so many years.
There was a hint of disappointment in Theodore's eyes. It wasn't that he didn't want to care about them, but he didn't know about their existence at all.
"Are you resenting me, Alastair?" He asked.
"It is far from resentment. My mommy likes you, and as her children, we can't comment anything about it. However, you don't mean much to me. I'm fine as long as Mommy is here," Alastair said the most mature words in his tender voice.
Upon hearing this, Theodore's heart suffered a great blow. He hadn't expected his image to be like that in Alastair's heart.
It was a pity that he could not make up for the past few years. He could only try to make it up to them slowly in the future.
When Everleigh came over, she felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere.
