Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 565

"I'll examine you." Everleigh didn't want to say anything else.

She had already been slapped, and there was no point in continuing the subject.

Xavier looked at her red and swollen face, guilt flashing across his eyes. "I'm sorry, Everleigh."

"I'm your sister-in-law, so we're a family. You don't need to apologize. However, Xavier, I have to make it clear to you that I'm in conflict with your mother, so don't blame me for being rude." She didn't stop moving about with her hands, but her words were also full of seriousness.

She was a human who knew how to hold grudges. Madison was not polite to her, so it was impossible for her to return good for evil.

She could also see that it was out of the question for her and Madison to coexist peacefully.

He smiled bitterly and said, "I understand. Since I fell into a coma, I know everything there is to know about you two. I heard clearly everything everyone said to me. I really wanted to open my eyes and tell you that I know everything, but no matter how hard I tried, I had no strength to do so. I could only listen to what you said to me."

Hearing this, she felt a sting in her nose.

She understood what Xavier meant. He was fine now; he had already woken up. For them, it was something worth celebrating.

After a series of examinations, Everleigh had come to a conclusion that there was no serious injury to his heart for the time being, but it still needed to be treated well.

"Your health is fine now. I'll ask someone to make some light food and send it to you. As for what you wish to eat, you can tell me after you leave the hospital."

"Okay," he responded, and his eyes were full of determination for the future. After coming back from the brink of death, he valued his life more than ever. Even if he couldn't live long, he didn't want to have any regrets.

Theodore stayed behind and looked at his brother. Xavier said in a low voice, "The company..."

He replied, "When Wilson lost the money before, there was a large amount of assets flowing into his bank account. I don't know the details either. I can only wait for the investigation results to be discovered."

Hearing this, Xavier gently closed his eyes and said, "It seems that Grandma's hope is going to be ruined. My plan can't be implemented now."

Theodore's eyes flickered when he heard Xavier speak of his plan, but he didn't give any other explanation.

Christopher came to work that day feeling refreshed. When Everleigh returned to the office, she saw him and Erine together.

"When did you come over?"

"This morning. I came bearing you delicious gifts." Christopher knew that Everleigh had been helping him recently, so he had brought her favorite dishes to reward her.

She didn't hesitate but took it and started digging in.

Erine, on the other hand, saw her red cheeks. She recalled what had happened that morning and said, "So you are the doctor who took a slap this morning."

Everleigh paused from eating and said with resignation, "How do you know everything?"

"The hospital is not that big. It's not difficult for me to have heard about it. Your story is spreading throughout the hospital. Word has it that you fought with the patient, you hooked up with the patient's son, yada yada yada," Erine said in a flat tone.

Everleigh had had it up to her eyeballs. As a wise man once said, bad news travels fast.

Only then did Christopher know what he had missed. "What's going on?"

Everleigh had no choice but to tell him what had happened. He frowned and stared at her cheek, realizing what she had been through.

"Have you applied any medicine?" Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yeah, or I wouldn't have been able to relieve my swelling so quickly. What an unexpected disaster for me," she sighed.

Erine did not think so. "You'd better be careful. I heard from other nurses that Madison was throwing a tantrum in her ward. She didn't cooperate with the treatment, and her illness seems to be serious."

Everleigh knew about Madison's condition; she had asked her attending doctor before. Once her symptoms flared up, there would come a possibility of cancer at any time. Moreover, her bad temper could not be controlled, which would only exacerbate her condition.

The matter was severe.

At noon, Everleigh brought food to Xavier's ward. Christopher and Erine tagged along as well.

Xavier didn't know Erine, but the latter introduced herself gracefully, "Hello, my name is Erine and I'm a friend of Everleigh's. I know that you're awake, so I came here specially to see you. Nice to meet you." She reached out to hold his hand.

However, before she could walk over, she was pulled back by Christopher. "You don't need to shake hands with him."

"That's basic etiquette." Erine didn't understand and was confused. She didn't notice that her hand was still in his.

Seeing this, Theodore's eyes flickered as he didn't know what to say.

"He's already in bed. What's with the politeness talk. Let's talk about it when he sits up." Christopher waved his hand and said indifferently.

Xavier understood Christopher's character, but he didn't have the mood to care about that.

He would recover fast. After all, Godfrey Group was his goal. He could not let it be ruined by Wilson.

Everleigh hesitated for a moment and said, "I need to tell you something."

"What is it?" Xavier asked in confusion.

"You have a problem with your heart disease. If you want to treat it well, I will inject my medicine into you as usual, but there is a drawback. This is a new medicine and it's still in the clinical stage. The specific problems must be judged based on each condition. I'm here to get your agreement on it. Under normal circumstances, your parents can call the shots, but now, the situation is a bit..."

"I understand. If there is anything, I can personally sign it," Xavier said in a deep voice. As long as he could get better, he didn't care about what he had to do to get there.

"This is against the rules. Your family should decide, and so should Theodore." Everleigh gave a meaningful look to him. She hadn't told him about this matter, and it was a sudden thought of hers.

They had to give it a try.

"Okay, you have my trust," Theodore replied in a deep voice with a hint of firmness in his cold eyes.

Everleigh smiled faintly and said, "I'll arrange it in the afternoon. Let's not wait any longer."

Xavier lapsed into a moment of silence. He was bound to exhibit multiple symptoms after taking the new medicine, but he was also clear about his condition; it would happen sooner or later.

In the afternoon, Everleigh took out the agreement letter and handed it to Theodore. He signed it without even reading.

"When are you going to use it?"

"In a while, as he needs to be awake. If he feels uncomfortable, he can let me know."

"Everleigh, will the risk be greatly reduced?" He asked.

She hesitated for a moment and said thoughtfully, "There's a risk in using new medicines. Maybe there's not much positive reaction in the clinical stage, but there won't be any problem with Xavier's constitution."

"That's good. Xavier really wants to continue living. His resolution is his pillar of support."

She understood that the pillar of support was everything from Godfrey Group. It was all thanks to this resolution. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lasted this long.
