Chapter 170
In the living room of the ward, Moses came back with a lot of bags.
Theodore sat on the sofa, looking at the documents in his hands. When he saw Moses, he glanced at him and saw that the table was full of things. He frowned. "That many?"
"Indeed," Moses said as he started to dig things out. "Pastries, omelets, sandwiches, bacon, salad, milk, juice, coffee..."
Before Moses could finish his introduction, Theodore interrupted with a frown, "Didn't I tell you to buy something light?"
Everleigh had always liked cereal, soup and oatmeal for breakfast.
"Mr. Godfrey, you don't understand," Moses said seriously. "The important thing is not what Dr. Trevino likes to eat, but to let her feel your sincerity. It must be well-rounded, with lots of attention to details. These are the most important things to note when pursuing a girl. Attention to details determines one's success or failure."
Upon hearing this, Theodore seemed to be deep in thought.
"Mr. Godfrey, listen to me. There's nothing wrong with that," Moses said as he took out the last bag and pointed at it. "Soup."
Theodore pondered over Moses' words and suddenly asked, "Who told you that I'm going to pursue her?"
As Moses caught the look in the boss' eyes, he suddenly shuddered and said awkwardly, "Indeed, you... did not say anything." "Then... Shall I take away some of this?"
Theodore glanced at them and said indifferently, "You've already bought them, so just leave them there."
Huh?
Moses carefully looked at his boss from the corner of his eyes. He was not unhappy at all. If he was not wrong, the corner of his eyes was slightly lifted, and it looked like he was looking forward to it?
Moses let out a sigh of relief. As rumored, one's body cannot hide the truth even when the mouth denied it.
At this time, Everleigh was still chatting with Helen in the bedroom.
Knock, Knock!
The sound of knocking on the door could be heard. Moses stood at the door and said, "Madam, breakfast is ready. Do you and Dr. Trevino want to come out and eat something?"
Helen immediately waved her hand and said, "I'm not hungry and I suddenly feel a little tired. I'll lie down for a while. Everleigh, you go and have breakfast."
"Then you have a rest." Everleigh put Helen's cell phone on the bedside, tucked her in and went out.
As soon as she went out, she stopped when she smelled the fragrance of food.
She came out in a hurry that morning and did not have the time to have breakfast. Now that she had chatted with Helen for a long time, she was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.
Theodore sat at the dining table and saw her come out. "Sit down and eat something."
"No need. I'm not hungry," Everleigh's words were followed by a burst of rumbling sounds from her stomach. Her face froze immediately and she was very embarrassed.
Theodore pushed a glass of milk in front of her and said stiffly, "Moses bought too much. It's a waste if you don't eat it."
There was a figure hiding behind the bedroom door, eavesdropping. When she heard his words, she wished she could rush out and sew shut Theodore's mouth.
He had such a good opportunity to show his attentiveness, but this was what he said?
Luckily, Everleigh didn't pay attention to it. It was true that the fragrance of the food was enticing. After struggling for a while, she thought that she couldn't hide from being Helen's attending physician, so what was wrong with having breakfast? Hence, she persuaded herself and pulled out a chair to sit down silently.
"This is way too much food. Is this your standard breakfast? Can you finish eating all these?" Everleigh picked up her fork and muttered. She didn't know where to start.
The long marble table for eight people was filled with food. Did he buy all the varieties at the restaurants around the hospital? It was enough for ten people, so forget the two of them; it really was a waste of money.
"If you like it, you can have breakfast of this standard everyday."
Everleigh stopped chewing on the sandwich and looked at Theodore in shock.
Theodore asked, "Is this sincere enough?"
Sincere?
Faced with Theodore's burning gaze, Everleigh swallowed the food in her mouth and almost choked on it. For a moment, she didn't understand what Theodore was trying to say.
However, she immediately thought of the way she angrily came to denounce him in the morning, and then she felt embarrassed. "Well, I'm sorry. I didn't know that it was Grandma's idea. I thought you intentionally... So in the morning..."
He was silent.
"But don't worry, I'll take good care of Grandma."
Everleigh's serious expression made Theodore frown slightly. He wanted to say something. His thin lips moved a little but he didn't say anything. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
After a long while, he answered with a "hmm" and picked up the coffee next to him.
"What did he hmm about? They are like a chicken and a duck; both of them are talking about different things! What are they thinking about?"
Behind the bedroom door, Helen pressed her ear against the crack of the door anxiously. She wished she could use a tool to pry open Theodore's head to see what was inside. He didn't even know how to say sweet things to a girl.
Helen had lived until this age and hadn't had such interesting things happen for a long time. From the looks of it, it was a good choice to live in Ocpeace City for a while.
It was already afternoon. However, on a small island on the other side of the world, there was a time difference and it was already dusk.
On the high-end private beach of a five-star hotel, a woman was dressed in a floral dress for vacation. Her face was fully covered by sunglasses and a wide- brimmed hat. She was lying on the
lounge chair to enjoy the sea breeze.
Unfortunately, the originally comfortable environment could not make her relax completely. Something was said on the phone and she immediately bounced up from the reclining chair and took off her sunglasses. "Madam Scott is in the hospital?"
On the other end of the line, there was a young man's voice. The tone of his voice was always a little cold and nobody dared to cross the line.
'And she is now staying at the city hospital for treatment. She has also appointed an attending physician."
"What?"
"By the way, I have to tell you that the old lady suddenly had a heart attack and was saved by her. She is now Madam's lifesaver, the honored guest of the Godfrey family."
Hearing this, Josephine's fingernails instantly pressed into her palm. Her face turned blue and her voice was sharp. "This is what you told me? To listen to you back then?"
She held her temper in and took a deep breath. "I obeyed you and bought a ticket for a vacation. Then, I let you take care of everything in the country. However, I've only been here for a few days and this happened. Does this mean that she'll become a member of the Godfrey family by the time I go back? Who are you helping?"
"What's the rush?" The man on the other end of the line was still calm. "I'm calling you to tell you that the opportunity has come." "Where is the little nurse I asked you to contact last time?"
Josephine's eyes narrowed as she heard a faint voice coming from the other end of the phone. He said unhurriedly, "The nurse can be put to good use now."
The wind was very strong on the beach at dusk. The hat on Josephine's head was suddenly blown away by the wind, but she ignored it, still holding her mobile phone and listening to the voice on the other end of the line.
Watching her hat roll into the waves and disappear, Josephine clenched her fists tightly. The last bit of concern in her eyes disappeared, leaving behind a cold feeling. All that was left was a determined coldness.
"Alright."
