Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 555

A chortle escaped from Theodore. He held her hand and asked, "Isn't that so? We've experienced life and death now, and we've even had our children and met each other's parents. When are you going to marry me?"

Everleigh was stunned by his words. She paused for a few seconds before she laughed. "Theodore, you have to prepare a marriage proposal for me to marry you. Besides, can't you tell your parents' attitude towards me?"

Her words were not what he wanted to hear.

He knew that his parents treated her poorly and had even tried to frame her. If it wasn't for her mental and emotional strength, he was afraid that something would have gone wrong a long time ago.

"I'm sorry that my family has not been good to you." His face was riddled with guilt.

It was good enough that she was willing to forgive him. He couldn't ask for more.

Realizing that she had said something wrong, she quickly added, "Actually, your family is not the main reason. I mean, think about it, you proposed in a hospital. I'm not asking for the most romantic proposal ever, but the least you can do is to prepare an engagement ring and flowers. Have you ticked any of the items?"

His eyes lit up as he heard her question. "I have..."

"What do you have?" She looked at him with an amused expression.

They all came in such a hurry. It was impossible for him to have prepared a ring.

He hesitated. After thinking for a moment, he promised, "Don't worry. The wedding won't be too bad. Just wait and see."

She smiled slightly. No matter the reason, his intentions were good. In addition, it was not the right time to get married now. The Godfrey family had encountered a heap of problems, including her parents' issue. In short, troubles were coming one after another.

"We'll talk about it when everything is settled."

"Never mind, let's not talk about this and go back to the hotel. Both of their families are around. It's not appropriate for us to join them."

Theodore had the same thinking. It was better to rest early and adjust to the time difference.

Everleigh slept soundly that night. She was so tired as she hadn't had a good rest in the afternoon.

After a quiet night, she brought food to the hospital in the morning.

She went to see Alexander. Cecil was not around, and Missha was the only one here.

Aunt Missha, did you stay the whole night?"

"Yeah. There is nothing much going on in the company. I'll be alone if I go back, so I thought that it's a good idea to stay here to accompany Alexander." Missha nodded, dark circles around her eyes. Obviously, she hadn't had any rest.

Everleigh gave her the things she had bought and said, "Eat something. I'll go and visit Lenold."

"How is he?"

"It's mostly severe skin trauma. Fortunately, his years of being in the army and the physical training has benefited him a lot. His physique is better than any ordinary people," Everleigh explained.

Alexander nodded. "Good to hearthat."

Cecil was not overly worried.

At this moment, the Hayes family members were all gathered in Lenold's ward. Felicia had taken Samuel to rest.

She left them to have more space.

Seeing what had happened to his son was akin to a stab to Jaseh's heart.

"Lenold, what happened to you?"

"Dad, it's Diana. She kidnapped Lenold on purpose to take over his shares. Once his shares were transferred, she wanted to kill him so that everyone would assume that he was sacrificed in the mission." Cecil had realized this when the fire was ignited.

This was also part of the reason why Diana hadn't killed Lenold. After all, there were a lot of documents that needed to be signed by him.

Upon hearing it, Jaseh was incensed. Diana didn't know the first thing about gratitude and dared to hurt others.

"Where is she?"
