Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 80

The heavy downpour took away the scorching heat that had been terrorizing Ocpeace City for days. A rainbow was now hanging over the city's evening sky.

When Everleigh's car reached her home, she parked her car just beside a curb in her neighborhood. They saw Theodore's assistant when they came down from the car. He had arrived earlier to fetch Theodore home. He nodded at Everleigh by way of greeting when he saw her.

"Let me do it," Everleigh took the sleeping Adrienne from Theodore, "I'm sorry to trouble you today."

Theodore's expression was indifferent. "Let's go up. The wind's acting up again."

They had been playing the whole afternoon and the weather was also bad. It would be easy for one to fall sick after sweating so much.

Everleigh nodded and said, "Well, you'd better go back early. You were caught in the rain just now, so please remember to drink some hot water when you get back. Don't take too many medicines for your stomach. They have a lot of nasty side effects."

Theodore merely replied with a 'hmm' and didn't give any other response.

Everleigh did not say anything more than she already had. Theodore had plenty of maids and a fiancee. She forced a smile before holding Alastair's hand and went up to her apartment.

Theodore did not stay too long. He ordered his assistant to drive him home after he was sure that Everleigh had entered the building she was staying at.

When the car drove out of the estate, the assistant checked Theodore's expression through the rearview mirror. He carefully said, "Mr. Godfrey, Jacob called you."

"Really? What's the matter?"

"He said that Miss Bailey's waiting for you at the mansion."

Hearing this, Theodore's brows knitted together as he asked, "What day is it today?"

He had been with Josephine for two years. Apart from necessary occasions, Josephine would never personally show up at his mansion.

His assistant was in a bit of a dilemma. "I don't think today is any special day."

Theodore hummed in response and stopped asking any further questions. He leaned back on his seat and closed his eyes to rest. He did not think too much about Josephine. She must have something to discuss with him and that was it.

When Moses's eyes caught Theodore from the rearview mirror, he felt inexplicably nervous.

His gut was telling him that something bad was going to happen soon. Ever since Dr. Trevino showed up, his boss had become a totally different person. Would his boss's wedding with Miss Bailey be affected? He could not say for sure now.

When night fell, the air was filled with the refreshing scent of grass.

Everleigh closed the windows, settled the two children into their beds and closed the door to the room. She then opened the refrigerator, took out a can of beer and settled down on the sofa.

White foam shot out from an opening on the can of beer after Everleigh jerked it open. Beats of water droplets quickly formed on the surface of the cold can.

Everleigh raised the can and took a sip. She quivered as the cold liquid slid down her throat. She then curled up and leaned against the pillows with her eyes looking at the big, wide ceiling. Soon, she was lost in her sea of thoughts.

Her phone had notified her that she had received some text messages. At first, she did not bother replying to them as she thought they were sent by Christopher. For now, she would finish her beer first. To her surprise, Stainley turned out to be the sender. Her eyes widened as she saw "William" inside the content of one of the messages.

Stainley wrote, "William asked for your messenger account from me. What do you think?"

Another batch of messages reached her phone, probably because she did not reply to the older messages.

"Don't bother if you're not willing. I'll turn him down for you."

"Have you thought about Dr. Morgan's offer to teach at the university?"

"You don't have to be so awkward around William, you know. Both of you are specialized in different fields and you won't have to see him too much if there's nothing special going on."
